Figuring out the bad boy // Matthew Espinosa

Chapter 35

I woke up to the sound of someone knocking on the door.

I checked the time and it was 2:47 am.

I knew it wasn't my parents because they were on a business trip, so then who would it be?

I slowly got off of the couch and walked towards the door.

The knocking came again but this time more desperate.

"Skyler please let me in I need to tell you something. Please. You'll get killed if I don't move you somewhere safe."

"Nash?" I opened the door.

"Your coming with me right now." He said grabbing my wrist and pulling me i into his car.

"Whats going on?" I asked confused.

"Buckle up and I'll tell you." He replied.

"I'm guessing you didn't see the news." Nash started.

"Nope I fell asleep before it." I told him.

"Jack escaped from jail today. I came to help you and now were going to get Matt. I'm not letting that dick kill my friends." Nash said pushing down on the gas.

We arrived at Matt's house and I remembered where he told me the spare key was.

We got in quickly and woke Matt up.

Shortly after we were all in the car riding to Nash's house.

On the way there a storm started. It was a terrible thunder storm.

"Okay go run!" Nash said as we pulled into his driveway. His parents took up all the space in the garage.

Me and Matt ran out across the lawn and into the house.

We shut the door breathing heavily from all the excitement of the night.

"Wow. What a crazy night." Matt exhaled.

"But I'm sure we're safe here."

Then we sat in silence.

Nash ran inside a couple of minutes later.

"There's a car pulling into the driveway!" He whisper shouted.

"Go hide now just incase its Jack!"

I found a hiding place in the jacket closet and Matt couldn't fit in.

"I'm not leaving you." I said trying to get out.

"No. Stay right there. Your safe here." He leaned down, kissed my forehead and shut the door.

I started to cry uncontrollably.

What if Matt got hurt? I wouldn't be able to see life without him if he got killed.

Just then I heard the front door open.

"Hey Nash." An all too familiar voice said.

"What are you doing here?" Nash asked surprised.

"I'm coming to get the girl you took from me. Oh and Matt too." He grumbled.

"What? I never took them." Nash sounded so confident.

"Yes you did I watched you." I heard the floor boards creek under Jack's footsteps.

"So just hand them over and no one will get hurt."

"No." Nash replied.

"I will kill you." Jack said.

"Go ahead. Then you'll just go to jail for more time."

"I'll escape again."

"No you won't."

Jack grumbled something that I couldn't understand.

"What's in here?" Jack asked playing with the door nob of the closet I was in.

I was in tears, I wanted to scream but I didn't.

"You really think I would be dumb enough to hide a person in there?" Nash laughed.

He kept jiggling the door nob, making my breath hitch.

Then he started slowly pulling the door open, he peeked inside to mess with Nash.

"Go ahead." He nodded.

Jack flung the door open.

He looked around for what seemed like forever, and started shutting the door again.

When it was almost 100% closed I moved my position, and a coat fell, making a huge noise.

"What was that?" Jack asked.

His eyes locked on me and he smiled.

"Ahhh how nice to see you Skyler." He
smiled.

I took a deep breath.

"Do what you want do. Kill me I don't care. But you have to leave Matt alone." I said stepping out of the closet

"Is this a bribe?" He asked.

"Just please don't hurt Matt. That's all I ask." I sighed.

Jack grabbed my arm.

"Skyler!" Nash yelled grabbing my other arm.

"Let me go. I'm going with Jack. I don't want anyone else to get hurt." My lip quivered.

"What if you get hurt?" Nash asked following me and Jack out of the house.

"Tell Matt I love him." I said giving up. I was so dead.

"Skyler!" Matt ran outside towards me.

"Matt help!" I yelled trying to move out of Jack's grip.

"Stop struggling." Jack screamed at me.
"Or you wont like what will happen."

I pushed him and kicked him trying to fight back.

"That's it!" Jack yelled and pulled out a gun and shot it in the air.

It made Matt stop in his tracks and I stopped struggling.

He pointed the gun at Matt.

"Is this what you want Skyler? I will shoot him and I will make you watch him die. You'll get in the car if you know what's best for you."

Nash ran and tackled Jack, loosing his grip on my arm.

I escaped his grip and ran towards Matt, embracing him.

"Matt." I cried on his shoulder.

"It'll be okay." He said.

The next part of my memory was a blur because I was crying so much.

We heard a gun shot and panicked.

Nash was killed.

Jack started running towards me and Matt, gun aimed at us when police showed up.

They took him away and grabbed Nash's body.

When I saw Nash's body, I realized that Nash died for me and Matt.

I will never forget him. Ever.
