Unexpected

Chapter 39

I held her lifeless body in my arms as she continued to cough up blood

"I never thought that death would feel this way"

As I looked into her eyes I knew that I wouldn't able to do so again I began to cherish this very moment.

I managed to talk inbetween sobs

"I know we never expect it to be this way"

Soon she would be gone from my life forever. I would lose the only person I had left in my life, but losing her was the worst.

With Jess I found out through someone, with my parents I found out through someone again, but with Maya I watched her die in my arms.

It happened right in front of me in a matter of seconds that's all it took a few seconds. I couldn't save her or do anything I could only watch her live out her last few moments on earth.

I cried

"No please don't cry... Just know that I love you no matter what okay Eva"

And those were her last words I felt her body go cold and stiff she no longer was here with me. I closed her eyes and kissed her forehead I thought so long about what I was going to do next the only thing I knew for certain was that

I wasn't coming back from this.

**

I stood up and gently layed her head back down on the ground.

Peyton had moved to the far corner of the room watching everything unfold not saying a word.

I no longer just wanted her dead I wanted her to suffer. I clenched my fists so hard I thought that my knuckles would pierce through the skin.

I walked towards her and punched her right in the face she flinched and let out an agonizing shriek.

I grabbed her by the hair wrapping my fingers around strands of hair tightly and pulled her to the ground forcefully. She held my hand screaming for me to stop but I could only see red from the anger that ran through my veins

"Oh the emotionless bitch can feel now? How ironic"

I kneed her so hard in the stomach I felt the air leave from her chest as she gasped for air

"Oh that wasn't nice now was it? But I have no remorse for you"

I then kneed her directly in the face blood instantly flowed from her nose as it looked broken now.

I grabbed her by her legs using her body as a mop, but she managed to kick me and I lost balance falling to the floor she quickly jumped on me throwing deadly punches to my face each connecting harder than the last.

I managed to grab one of her arms twisting it until I heard a bone crack she fell back to the ground holding her arm in pain

"See it doesn't feel to good does it"

I stood up kicking her in her side multiple times with each kick she begged me to stop and that's exactly what I wanted for her to beg for life feeling pain throughout her entire body.

I then began punching her in the face repeatdly only thinking of how she ripped the lives of the people I loved away from them, Now I was going to do the same to her.

I went over to where she had left the gun I picked it up and walked over to her.

I stood over her with my hand on the trigger before I could pull back I saw the detective from the station storm in

"Eva put the gun down you don't want to ruin your life"

I laughed repeating his words

"I don't want to ruin my life? Really my life is already ruined okay no more damage can be done. The worst that can happen is me dying and even that wouldn't compare to the pain I'm feeling right now"

The tears began to flow

He looked at me with such sympathetic eyes he felt bad for me he really did but I couldn't let her live that wasn't an option. She killed my bestfriend, parents, and girlfriend four people that I loved so much.

"You cant sink to her level Eva I know that your not a murderer okay? You have a conscious and if you pull that trigger you will live knowing that you ended someones life. It won't go away either trust me"

I thought about what he said and it was true I wasn't a murderer but Peyton needed to die and I needed to pull the trigger.

I pulled more slightly on the trigger but then he said something that changed the situation

"Do you think that they would want you to do this Eva?"

His words hit me like a category 5 hurricane. He was right they wouldn't want me stooping to her level because I was better than that.

I didn't need to kill someone because that wouldn't bring either one of them back.

I lowered the gun and dropped it next to Peyton's body.

Soon a swat team stormed in behind the detective he walked over to me giving me a reassuring nod letting me know that I made the right decision.

I saw him kneel beside Peyton checking her pulse then sitting her upright to put her in handcuffs.

I decided to go sit next to Maya's body holding her for the very last time.
