I'll always need you

​​​​​​​Claire's POV

I couldn't comprehend all of that at first. But I couldn't help but wonder what Zealand was going through at this moment, poor little guy. 

"So where were you going to take Zealand?" Ezra finally asks

"To my mom's house, that's where Cash is" Henry answers "now give me my son, or else you're dead" he says holding the gun to my head. I look over at Ezra, who looks defeated 

"You can't have him" I tell Henry "he's my son" I remind him

"Fine" Henry says "have it your way" he puts his finger on the trigger of the gun. I hold Zealand close and cover his body with mine. I could see Henry was about to shoot and I prayed it wouldn't hit Zealand. 

"No!" Ezra yells as he tackles Henry. I closed my eyes tight and prayed... That's all I could do at that moment.
