Tragic

Ch 3

Elliot's P.O.V.

"Oh fuck!" I heard someone grunt as our bodies collided, falling down on the cold cement. "we just keep running into each other, don't we?" I heard him laugh. "Ash?" I questioned. "W-were you the o-one chasing me?" I questioned on as I tried to clear my mind. "Hey Elliot, and no, that was someone else, I'm not sure who, he turn and ran somewhere else when we ran into each other." He said as he looked down at me. "O-Oh..." I said and looked down. I realized I was still gripping tight on his arms, as he hovered above me. "Erm sorry." I said and let go of him. "Don't worry, I don't mind you look real good from this view." He said and got up, holding a hand out for me. "T-Thanks." I blushed and grabbed his hand as he picked me up. "You shouldn't have left the club and walk to wherever you are going, this town isn't the best at night." He spoke and brushed himself off. "Now you sound like Shane." I said and scoffed. "Are you two still not talking." "N-No." I snapped and crossed my arms over my chest. "W-Why... H-How did y-you even know I-I left?" I stuttered as I looked down at the sidewalk. "You didn't come back in and your friends were still dancing. After 20 minutes I decide to make sure you were okay and you weren't out there." He said and shrugged as if it was that simple. "I-I don't b-believe y-you...and if you will excuse me, I-I'm going h-home." "Oh not alone, you aren't. I'm walking with you if you want to walk, and if you are gonna take a cab; I'm taking a cab with you." Ash declared and nodded to himself. "No. I-I don't need y-you to be m-my babysitter." "Don't think of it as that... I just want to make sure you make it home." He said and smiled lightly. "fine... W-We're walking even though m-my feet hurt ." I mumbled and started to walk. "Wait, take of your shoes and get on my back, I'll just give you a piggy back ride!" He spoke and smiled like a little kid. "N-No, I'm too big f-for that." I said and shook my head no. "please, you're silly." He laughed and crouched in front of me. I looked down at him and sighed. This boy was stubborn and such a flirt. I slipped of the wedges and climbed on his back. Ash hooked his arms under my knees and stood up with ease. "Onward to your house!" He shouted and smiled happily as he walked on.

Ash's P.O.V.

I didn't mean to actually trample her...it was more to wrap her in my arms and to get her away from who was ever chasing after her. I slowly am learning that she is very sassy and stubborn. But I'm really glad that I found her before anything happened. I tested Shane quickly telling him that she is fine and that I'll bring her home to make sure she would be okay. "So how much farther to your house?" I questioned as I shifted her up higher on my back. "Just a c-couple more blocks. I-I can walk, A-Ash." She said but didn't pick up her head from my shoulder where she decide to rest it. "You're fine." I nodded and continued to make my way to her house. "I-I'm tired ." She mumbled and yawned. "We are almost there." I promised and quickened my steps. 10 or 15 minutes passed and I made my way up the few porch steps. Elliot fell asleep a while ago. She would nuzzle her face against me every so often and I could feel my heart flutter a little. But it couldn't, my heart was cold and it was staying that way. I knocked on the door and in almost an instant Shane opened the door. "Come in, come in." He quickly said as he sighed in relief. "She was tired, and well she fell asleep." I chuckled lightly. "Thank you so much man." Shane said. Moving to my back and taking her in his own arms. "I'll be right back." He mumbled and carried her upstairs.

Shane's P.O.V.

I was honestly so thankful that I had someone like Ash that would go out and do this for me. I took her off of his back and carried her up to her bedroom and placed her in the bed, pulling the covers up, of course. I sighed as I walked back down and Ash looked tiered too. "Thank you once again. It means so much, I owe you one, dude." I said and patted him on the back. "Yeah, listen. When I finally found Elliot, there was a guy chasing her. I don't know who the hell he was though, he ran when I grabbed on to her." Ash spoke as he ran his fingers through his hair. "Well shit man. Thank god you got to her when you did man." I said and took a seat on the couch. "Did she saying about the call that she got?" "No." He said and shook his head. "Alright, thank you though." "Yep." He nodded. "I'll see you around dude." Ash spoke and showed himself out. This guy from the other gang wasn't messing around and I was honestly having enough of this shit. I mean hell. One fuckin time I take money and he goes insane. I'm not even on his territory...Neither have I even attacked it. This guy was stupid. If it was any other fuckin gang, they already would have taken over and kill the son of a bitch. I sighed as I stood up from the couch and made my upstairs to my room. I climb in my bed and groaned as I tucked my arms behind my head, staring at my ceiling. I needed to figure what the fuck I was going to do about all of this.
