*Scarlet's POV*

This cannot be real.

This has to be a nightmare.

It's not Wes lying limp and covered in blood on the concrete in front of my very own eyes right now. Nope, it's not.

It just can't be..

"I need everyone to back up; this is a crime scene," a deep, firm voice spoke from somewhere near me. I looked up through my waterfall of tears to see a policeman pushing everyone back, while paramedics huddled over Wesley's body, doing all they could to save him.

But what happened? Did he get shot? Beaten? Attacked? No one would tell me anything, and I just can't take it anymore. I need to know what happened to him.

I slowly stumbled onto my shaky and weak legs, facing the police officer with salty tears in my eyes. "Please, what happened to him? Please, tell me!"  

"Ma'am, you need to calm down. Only family are allowed to know about those things." He pushed me back a bit while he spoke, pushing me even farther away from Wes.

"No, you don't understand! I am family! He's my cousin! Please, you have to believe me!" I begged, urgent to know what had happened to Wesley already before I legitimately exploded. 

He sighed, and by the look on his face, I knew that he knew I wasn't lying..well, partially. "Okay. Someone shot him twice in his chest. We believe it was a drive by. One bullet is in his right shoulder blade, while the other is near his ribcage. The paramedics are trying to get him to the hospital for the medical attention he needs right away, otherwise he may not make it."

I choked on my tears as his words hit me, sobs racking my body as I tried to take in everything that he was telling me.

It was a drive by? Someone shot Wes twice for no reason, all because they wanted to? What kind of messed up place is this world becoming?

"Oh my god..," I squeaked, about to fall to the ground when someone's arms caught ahold of me. It couldn't be Keaton, because he was comforting Caitlyn right now through all this. So it must be-

"What the hell..," Drew gasped, his eyes widened with shock before they filled with fresh tears at the sight of Wesley laying there bloody on the ground in front of us.
