Love Runs Out (Second Book To Counting Stars) (Complete)

Chapter Twenty-One

*Lilly's P.O.V*

I heard footsteps coming down Soon Mason's face popped in. He came in with a key. He runs behind me and unlocked my feet and hands.

"Your friends are here," He says. He reaches for something in the back of his pants. He pulled out a gun. He gave it to me. "Self defense, but I need you to do me a favor." I looked at him. "Shoot me."

"What? I'm not going to do that," I say.

"Please. I won't have to follow my brother's order any more. I can live in piece," He says. I looked at him.

"This is going to kill me more then you Mason," I say.

"I don't care. I just don't want to live any more," He says. I gulped. I looked out at the stairs then back.

"OK," I say.

"But once when you pull that trigger, you got to run from Justin," He says. I nodded. I pointed the gun at Mason. I took a breath.

"Goodbye Mason," I whispered. Soon all you heard was a bang.

*Justin's P.O.V*

I was waiting for Mason to come with Lilly. What was taking him so long? I couldn't wait this long. Soon I heard a bang.

"Shit!" I yelled running down the stairs. I walked down the stairs into the room we had Lilly in to see her dead body on the ground. But no I was wrong. It was Mason.

"Mason," I whispered. I looked around to see Lilly not here.

"LILLY ONCE I FIND YOU, YOUR DEAD!" I yelled. There were so many rooms she could be in any of them.

*Spencer's P.O.V*

"We have to go in now," I say. "For who knows Lilly could be dead."

"Spencer calm down," Prentiss says. "We will go in we just have to wait for the rest to come." I felt tears slipping down to my cheek.

"I can't loose her Emily," I whispered. She looks at me. Then we heard a gun shot.

"We're going in," Morgan says. We all drew our guns and walked in. Emily and I went upstairs and James and Morgan went downstairs. We both walked upstairs, to see nothing.

*Lilly's P.O.V*

Justin finally found me. Now we were on the ground. I was fighting for my life here. I lost the gun. Soon I saw Justin grabbed the broken glass. I was holding back the hand he had it in. But it was no use. He was stronger then me. Finally his hand got away from mine and the piece of broken glass went into my belly. I felt the pain a thousand times. I tried not to move. But the pain was hurting me. I looked around to see my vision was getting blurry. I saw Justin escaping through the broken window that I broken. I tried to keep my eyes open. Then I saw Morgan coming in.

"Lilly!" He yelled.

*Morgan's P.O.V*

We fond Mason's body on the ground so we both split up and went to look for Lilly in the other rooms. I kicked down every door. Soon I came to the last door. I took a breath and kicked down the door. I saw Lilly lying there bleeding with no one in sight. I ran over to her.

"Lilly!" I yelled. No answer she still had her eyes open. "I NEED A MEDIC!" Tears came down. I can't loose my best friend. Soon her eyes started closing. "Lilly, don't you give up on me." She open her eyes a bit, but not a whole lot.

"WHERE IS MY DAMN MEDIC!" I yelled. I knew she didn't have much time.

*Hours*

*Morgan's P.O.V*

The medic arrived and we drove to the hospital. Right now Lilly is in surgery. J.J was also in there. Spencer was pacing back and forth. He couldn't loose someone else. We lost track of time of how long she was in there. Soon Spencer sat back down. I looked at James who was also worried. Heck everyone was worried. Finally J.J walked out. Hoping for good news, but when we all saw her face it didn't look so good.

"She didn't make it," She says. Her voice cracked a bit as she said it. Soon Spencer got up and went over to go in and see Lilly. J.J stopped him. He looks at her.

"I never even got to say goodbye to her. I never got to tell her how much I loved her," He says. I could tell he was already in tears. All J.J was to go was give him her best look saying it was going to be okay and give him a hug. We all got up. I walked over to Garcia who was crying. I gave her a hug and setting my chin on top of her head. I wish I could say it was going to be okay for all of us. But I can't. Because she was too much of a sister to all of us.

*That night*

*J.J's P.O.V*

I was at the cafe waiting for someone. Soon she came. I looked at her and gave her the passports.

"Where do you think your gonna go now?" I asked her.

"I don't know J.J, but I have to lead Justin out of here so he won't hurt you guys," She says. I look at her.

"Do you ever think we will ever meet each other again?" I asked her. She looks at me.

"I wish I could say yes, but I can't. My life is in danger and keeping the team, you, and Spencer safe is the only thing for this," She says.

"You know he will be pissed at you," I say.

"I rather him be piss then be dead. I care about him too much. Just... I want him to be happy," She says. I put a hand on her hand.

"Your a good friend," I say.

"Yeah. I gotta get going," She says. She walks away. Going into a different direction then us.
