SOCIETY

7

We were just out of town, Matt and I were talking about life, like we usually do when we saw this black van come out of nowhere and pull out in front of us and stop. Matt step on the breaks making the car stop unexpectedly. The guy step out of the car and came towards us. I looked over at Matt and we looked scared "Look Bryanna I'm so sorry. I didn't mean for any of this to happen" he said I got confused. I looked at the man, there were now two of them. The first man came to my side of the car and opened my door and pulled me out holding my hands behind me "LET ME GO!" I screamed trying to wiggle out of he's grasp. Matt got out of the car before the second man could grab him. Why isn't he helping me? "Matt?" I looked at him but he didn't look at me "Your not to clever Matthew. You knew we were watching you. Running away was a stupid move" the man said "You know them?!" I questioned Matt. He looked at me for a short second before nodding he's head. I stopped trying to wiggle myself out of the mans grip. My heart shattered "Somebody please explain to me what's going on" I said barely bellow a whisper "Matthew why don't you explain this" the man said to him "Matt?" I said. My heart breaking yet again "I work for these people Bryanna.. I'm supposed to make you fall in love with me so that you could trust me and I could bring you to them and then they would..." Matt said "They would what? and don't lie to me Matthew" I said tears filling my eyes "They would kill you because you're a threat to your society" he said looking at the grown "So it was all a lie? you never fucking loved me it was all just a fucking lie so that I'd fucking trust you to you could get me fucking killed! you fucking asshole! don't ever speak to me again oh wait not that you'll be able to because I'll be dead!" I said letting all my tears fall down my cheeks. I was so hurt by him. I trusted him "It's not like that Bryanna, this was before I knew you! I never wanted to hurt you" he said walking towards me "don't you dare take another fucking step" I said through gritted teeth. He looked hurt by my words. The men chuckled a little before pulling me into the van and stuffing me into the back seat. Matt sat beside me but at this very moment I would have enjoyed sitting next to one of those men "I'll get you out of here I promise" he whispered to me "I'd much rather die then have you help me" I said full of hate " I-I'm sorry" "you want me to believe that?! you fucking used my emotions against me! you're getting me fucking killed. Everything you've ever said to me was a fucking lie" I said looking out the window thinking over my life. 'I'm going to die today' I thought to myself " I really did fall in love with you! From the moment they showed me the picture of you I feel in love! you have to believe me." he said "I don't know what to believe anymore Matthew. But I do know that I truly hate you at the moment and I'm going to die hating you. I hope you can live with that" the car suddenly stopped and we were in front of a very fancy building "Matthew grab her" matt got out of the car and walked over to my side and opened the door. I got out of the car and Matt was about to grab my arm "Don't you fucking dare touch me" I said but he didn't listen he took my hand in he's and intertwined our hands. Even though he's the one that's getting me killed and I'm so hurt my him, he's hand he's reassuring to me. We walk into this big building and walk into the elevator. The man pressed the button for floor number 8 and the more the elevator went up the more scared I got. I guess Matt noticed because he would rub he's thumb across my hand ever so often. When we got to the floor the doors opened and we all stepped out. I couldn't move I stopped dead in my tracks and Matt stopped with me "Cmon Bryanna you have to go" he said looking into my eyes "Can I get out of this ? Do I really have to die?!" I said with a shaking voice "I'll get you out of this I promise. I won't let you down" he said. I nodded. I really hope he does get me out of this even though he's practically the person I hate most in the world right now. Matt started walking and I followed. He lead me to this big room with a long table in the back of the room. Everything was black and white. Very chick "You've got her a man in the corner of the room said " oh how I've been waiting so long for this moment to finally come. Ever since you were a child I always knew you were bad news" the man said "Wait I know that voice... Dad!?" I said out of disbelief. Everybody was turning against me "Ha smart you finally realized it" he said "you see Bryanna you can't live, you know to much that nobody else know. You could change this society and well I can't let that happen" he said turning around to face him. I hardly even recognized him considering I almost never see him "Alright boys enough chitchat time to get the show on the road. Matthew why don't you do the honours" he said "what?!" Matt practically yelled " that wasn't the deal we made!" He said letting go of my hand. The second he let go I didn't feel as calm anymore I was panicking. Tears frantically found themselves on both my cheeks "no it's not part of the deal your write but I could easily kill you to so I suggest you do as I say" my father said throwing Matt the gun "I'm not doing it !"Matt said " oh yes you are" my dad said. One of he's man pulled out a gun and held it in Matts direction "Matt come here" I said trying to breath. Matt looks at me and comes towards me "Do it okay" I said "what no!" He said shaking he's head " Matt it's either me or both of us. I'm the one they want" I said looking for he's eyes "Any last words Bryanna" my father chuckled " yeah actually I do. Matthew Lee Espinosa I love you. I love you okay? and I can't let you die so if you really truly ever loved me you'll do this for me okay? you'll kill me and you'll continue living your life to the fullest okay? and I need you to tell my best friend that I love her so much and that I'm sorry we couldn't live out our dreams together okay?" i said crying franticly. I took the gun and placed it to my forehead and placing Matts hand on it so that he'd hold it. I closed my head waiting for my last breath "I love you Matt" I breath "I love you more Bryanna and I'm sorry" he said. One gun shot was heard but when i wasn't the one being shot I shot my eyes open and franticly looked around for matt "it's okay it's okay I'm here! I'm right here" he said grabbing my hand and running us to the doors. I couldn't understand what was happening all I knew was that I had to run. We ran down 8 flights of stairs and we made it out of the building. Matt opened the passenger door for me urging me to get in. When I was in he shut the door and ran to he's side of the car and started the car. Just as we left the two man from before walked out

" we have to run Bryanna you know that right?" Matt said "we'll always be on the run from now on" I said to me looking in all the mirrors making sure nobody was following us yet. " I know" I simply said Matt looked over at me. He stopped at a stop sign and I leaned over and kissed him on the lips " you're not mad at me? You don't hate my guts" he asked taking off again " I could never hate you matt, you just saved my life" I said taking out the picture I had taken out of my bag and putt in my pocket. I loved this boys. And hopefully he doesn't get me killed yet again.
