The Obsession (A 'The Babysitter' Fan-fiction)

Chapter 11

Halle's POV

Cole and I stare at the crawlspace in awe. Not quite believing that they just killed someone. A horrible person mind you. But still a person nonetheless.

Remembering our situation, I quickly scramble to my feet. Cole just sits up, still staring at the crawlspace in a daze.

Suddenly, Max emerges from the fog, slowly clapping his hands together as he comes to stand right in front of us . "Did you just blow up Sonya?" Max asks me.

"Umm...no." I say, not quite sure how to answer him. I hadn't processed what Cole and I did yet. That was for later when people weren't threatening to kill us.

"I'm not even mad, Baby. I'm just a little surprised. What did that?" Max asks curiously, coming closer to me.

"A firework." I answer as Cole stands up and moves beside me.

"A firework?! Holy shit!" Max exclaims loudly. "Good for you baby, kid. That's awesome!"

Cole and I just stare at him in awe. Wow...this guy really had some issues. I'm guessing bipolar disorder since he goes from murderer to cheerleader/hype man. 

"So..." Max says, turning to Cole. "you want a head start?"

Cole huffs irritably. "Come on! You're the quarterback!"

"Life's not fair dude." Max tells him. Ain't that the truth. Just ask Samuel and those two cops that died. None of them deserved the ending they got. 

"You guys suck!" Cole exclaims, annoyed.

"You guys blew up Sonya!" Max argues. He then turns to me. "And don't worry baby, I'm not gonna hurt you. Only Coley here."

Cole takes my hand and the spray can, throwing it at Max before breaking out into a sprint, pulling me with him.

"You two can't outrun me, Coley!" Max shouts after us. Then I remember what Bee told Cole earlier. 

"Drop!" I shout and thankfully Cole seems to listen. Max tumbles over us, losing his balance.

Remembering what Bee told him. Cole runs over to Max and kicks him where the sun doesn't shine. Good for you little bro!

Max groans in agony and grabs his junk. A moment later, Max jumps back up and readjusts his pants before walking over to us. Why am I staring at his junk?! He's a killer! He's trying to kill my brother!

I quickly bring my gaze back up towards his face. Unfortunately, Max seems to have caught my staring and winks flirtatiously at me. I roll my eyes at him. Damn.

"You missed my dick." Max tells Cole with a smirk.

"No, I didn't." Cole states. 

"I'm pretty sure you did." Max says smirking as he wipes the blood off his forehead."And I got a big dick." Then he has the audacity to wink at me. Bleh.

"No, you don't." Cole tells him. Damn! Cole's got some balls after all.

"That's just hurtful." Max says, grabbing Cole by the throat, before lifting him off his feet. 

"Cole!" I cry out in fear.

My older sibling instincts kick in and I pull one of my pocket knives. I kick the back of Max's knee, causing his knee to collapse and drop Cole. He turns to grab me and I instinctively cut his arm with my knife. My eyes widened. Oops.

Max stares at me in awe before smirking at me. "I like em feisty." He says licking his lips. Ew! I turned the guy on! 

He started to stalk towards us, but stopped. He tilted his head slightly as if he was listening to something. 

"What is that?" Max asks.

"Eggs." Cole states. Ah, must be that dick Jeremy. I'll be sure to get payback for that later. 

"Somebody's egging your house?" Max asked, annoyed, grabbing Cole's arm roughly and my hand gently. Dragging us towards the front of the house.

"So what are you going to do about it?" Ma asks Cole. What?

"What?" Max asked just as confused as me. 

"I said...what are you going to do about it?" Max repeats. "Are you gonna let that little punk come onto your property, your family's property, and disrespect you like that? No. Hell, no! This is America! You need to wreck his act!" Wow...I was not expecting that. This guy is definitely bipolar.

"Are you kidding me?" Cole asks in disbelief.

"Get out there and crush that bitch." Max demands, giving him a kiss on the forehead. "Go." He instructs, pushing Cole forward.

Cole looks at him oddly, before hesitantly walking towards Jeremy.

I move to follow him, but Max pulls me back. "Oh no, sweetheart. You're staying right here." I gulped. Uh-oh.
