Just a Lie

Just a scratch

We pulled up in front of the spot were the gang meets. Tom turned the engine off.

"Stay here." He told me.

"Okay." I said.

He got out of the car and went to the others.

They all seemed furious. Suddenly I heard a loud gunshot. All of them flinched and looked around.

A car approached them. Tom took out his gun and pointed at the mysterious car. The other guys did the same.

The car pulled up next to the car i was in by the driver's side. A bunch of guys got out of the car except for the driver.

The driver's door opened slowly and a tall, scary looking, bald guy got out.

Tom immediately pointed his gun to that guy.

They started talking but i couldn't hear what they were saying. After a while I opened my door just so I could hear what they were saying. The moment I opened my door, that mysterious guy shot the door.

I screamed. Tom looked at me annoyed and embarrassed at the same time.

"Get out of the car!" The mysterious guy screamed.

I froze in place for a little.

"Now!" He screamed again, this time angrier.

I got out of the car with my hands up in the air.

"Who the fuck are you?" The man screamed at me while pointing his gun at me.

"My whore!" Tom snapped.

His words made me so angry but I couldn't say anything.

"Come here!" The guy told me.

"Gia don't!" Tom snapped. 

"Come here Gia!" Tom screamed at me while not breaking eye contact with the mysterious man.

I ran to Tom.

"You are so stupid Gia." Tom whispered.

"Sorry." I whispered back.

"What is it Tom? Why do you care about her? She's just your whore!" The mysterious guy snapped while pointing the gun at me.

"Touch her and I'll kill you!" Tom snapped.

"I'm not going to touch her! My bullet will!" The guy said laughing.

"Don't you dare!" Tom snapped at him.

"Watch me!" The guy said and pointed his gun at me once more before he shot.

I closed my eyes and when i opened them I saw Tom standing in front of me. I looked at him. His face was red.

He immediately shot the guy in the head and picked me up in his arms. He ran in the building while holding me tight.

The gunshots didn't stop for 5 minutes.

I looked at Tom. His face was red. My hands touched his torso. I felt a warm liquid on his shirt. I looked at my hands and i came upon something i was really familiar with. Blood.

I gasped and i looked at his body searching for the wound.

"Don't worry. It's just a scratch." He said, lifting up his shirt.

I quickly realized that the bullet was stuck in his ribs.

"Oh my god!" I gasped as I saw the wound.

"Don't worry" he said.
