I layed against a tree trying to catch my breath while Courtney and Ky did the same. We ran about six blocks before we decided to take a breather.
"Scar what in the hell happened back there?" I looked up to see Courtney looking at me with concerned eyes. She was still trying to catch her breath asso was I.
"Wes. Drunk. Rape." I breathed out. Courtney managed to figure out what I was saying and nodded. Her eyes once sad and concerned were now stone cold and angry as hell. I knew she wanted to rip Wesley's head off as much as I did.
I looked towards Ky who also seemed pissed as well. Courtney hit him in the shoulder and they started arguing about why Ky even brought him in the first place.
"Your the one who wanted to go to that stupid party in the first place and we needed a ride!" Ky yelled at Courtney but she didn't even flinch. "Why couldn't you ask Zac to barrow his car then? Instead of asking the biggest perv in our school to give us a lift!" She screamed back. Ky was about to defend himself but I butted in.
"Would you both just shut the fudge up for goodness sake!" They both turned to in my direction surprised as to what I just said. They knew that I never like to shout at anyone or anything so they knew I was beyond pissed at them.
"Either way if we didn't get a ride from Wesley and gone to the party some other way he still would've probably tried to rape me. So both of you stop arguing like your three years old!"
They didn't say anything they both just stared at me with disbelief that I would say something like that. I never did yell nor did I like to. It just came out because I've always hated to see them fight about stupid reasons like this one.
After a minute or two of silence between each of us I decided to start walking in the direction of Courtney's house and didn't look back. I sorta stumbled because my feet were killing me. Running in high heels isn't that fun especially when you don't wear them that often.
Sooner or later Courtney and Ky caught up to me. I looked down and saw that they were holding hands. I smiled, knowing I finally knocked a little bit of sense into them for now.
Courtney elbowed me in the arm to get my attention. She mouthed 'Im sorry' to me and I smiled in reply saying that it was fine.
After walking for about an hour we found ourselves in front of the St. Mary's church and decided to take a little break. We didn't sit down or anything we just stopped walking and starting talking about school and Christmas and other stuff.
While we were talking something caught my eye. About a block away I saw a shadowy like figure. I could tell it was looking in our direction and holding something in its hand. I noticed that it was a person of course but I couldn't make out the face.
I saw the person lift its arm in our direction with the something in its hand that I saw before. I stared for a while before I figured out what the object was.
"Duck!!!" I screamed before through myself to the ground and covering my head. I didn't see Courtney or Ky duck but im hopefully they did.
'BANG BANG!' I heard the gun go of twice before looking up in the direction at where the person was standing. I realized it was a male because I could sorta see the short hair and the muscular body. He was running in the opposite direction from us.
"COURTNEY!" I heard Ky yell. I instantly turned around to find my best friend lying on the pavement gasping for breath and Ky struggling to get to her. He must've hurt himself while he was ducking for cover.
I quickly crawled to where a Courtney was laying and search from wear the bullet had wounded her. She got shot in the stomach by her rib cage. I took off my jacket and put it on the wound to apply pressure so it would help stop the bleeding. I looked at her, she was still gasping for breath but looking at me dead in the eye.
I quickly broke contact because I was starting to cry. I told her over and over again that everything was going to be okay. I looked up to find Ky looking down at us still in shock of what just happened.
"Ky, don't just stand there call 911 now!" I snapped at him. He instantly grabbed his phone and started dialing. I felt a tug on my shirt and I quickly looked down to find that my jacket was almost completely red.
"Your going to be okay Court the ambulance is on there way." I said while trying to fight the tears but they started rolling down my face anyway.
"Scar if I don't make it which from the looks of it I might not I want you to know..." she drifted a little but instantly came back.
"Your the bestest friend in the world that I could ever ask for. I love you like a sister." She cracked a smile which made me cry harder but I still manage to smile.
"I love you to sis." I whispered and she started to tear up a bit. Ky came by my side and took over on putting pressure on the wound. I stepped back to give them some space and have them say stuff to eachother alone. Courtney whispered something to Ky before she went unconscious and thats when the ambulance showed up.
*~The Hospital~*
I was pacing back and forth in the waiting room at the local hospital. I couldn't keep calm my best friend was in surgery and it was either life or death at this point. I just couldn't sit still or anything I was to freaked out about all this. I didn't want to lose her I couldn't lose her she was the only one who understood me and was always there for me.
Ky was sitting in one of the chairs but he couldn't sit still as well. He was shaking his legs and was running his hands through his long dark black hair. He was as worried as I was only he showed it differently.
Courtney's parents showed up right away as soon as they got the call. They were hild eachother's hands and looking at me with concern as I paced. I thought they would've blamed me and Ky but they both knew us so well that they understood when they heard what had happened. I couldn't imagine what they were going through. Their only daughter shot and in surgery that she might not live through.
Ky and I explained what happened to the cops and Ky actually saw the person as well but didn't think nothing of it at the time. They actually found the gun right wear the person had been standing and were running it for prints.
I heard the doors open and I turned around to see it was a doctor walking towards us who showed no expression so I couldn't tell if it was good or bad news. Ky and Courtney's parents stood up by me and we all waited for him to give us the news.
"Im I'm sorry but..we lost her." Courtney's mom bursted out crying and her dad was hugging her trying to fight his tears but they strolled down his face anyway.
My knees felt weak and I collapse to the floor. I wasn't crying, I was still in shock so I just sat there. She's gone. She's really gone, I thought to myself. I couldn't believe that she was gone.
I felt someone bend down by me and wrap their arm around me and pulled me in close. I looked up to find that it was Ky looking down at me with tears in his eyes.
I then bursted into tears. There I knew that we had both lost someone that day. I had lost my sister and Ky had lost the love of his life..
