I'll Still Love You Either Way. | TCOAAL × Fem!Reader

(A.)

"..." i just stayed silent as Andrew tightened his hands around Ashley, probably tighter than before...

Ashley tried desperately to pull away Andrew's hands, having a hard time breathing.

... he'll let go of her soon, hopefully, please do.

"A... Andrew! I- i can't—" Ashley got cut off when Andrew just stared down at her.

"If you can come with a compelling reason not to, i will." Andrew said, the tone of his voice suggesting that he's probably not going to do that.

"[Y/N]...! [Y/N]! Do something! please...!" Ashley yelled out, her voice getting raspy as she resorted to hoping that I'll do something.

I just stay silent, not knowing what to do...

"[Y/N]..." Ashley said, her voice growing more quiet, her hands still holding tightly onto Andrew's hands to try and loosen his grip.

I noticed Ashley just stopped even trying, she's not trying to fight back. Her hands were shaking.

"You're not asking [Y/N] for help when i don't want to." Andrew sneered, tightening his grip on her neck even more. "I have had it with you, Ashley. I'm done with your bullshit."

"Fuck you, Andrew!—" Ashley yelled out, in a very strangled way. Since, well... she's being strangled to death.

Ashley tried pushing him away, still resisting him, despite the fact her hands were somewhat trembling.

But Andrew seemed deadset on this... he wouldn't do this, right...?

No, he did. Why...?

"... [Y/N]..." Ashley weakly muttered out, probably asking for help.

After minutes, finally, Andrew lets her go, backing away from her body.

I felt a few tear drops falling down my eyes as i looked at my dead sister, laying lifeless on the floor like the lady who's laying dead on her bed.

Two dead bodies in one room.

... Both killed by my brother.

I turned my head to look at Andrew, he didn't even look away from Ashley's dead body, just staring at it coldly.

"..." I let the tears fall down my eyes as i hoped that none of my sobs come out of my mouth.

Did i do the right thing? Is Ashley mad at me?...

Andrew looked at me before sighing. "Stop crying."

I looked at Andrew, quickly wiping away my own tears. "I'm sorry."

"There it is again." Andrew muttered, referring to the fact i just said sorry again...

"I..." I quickly shut my mouth before i say anything else.

"Whatever. We should just focus on getting out of here now." Andrew said.

But i could notice a hint of regret on his face, he just didn't want me to notice it... he looked neutral on the outside but you can't fool your sister like that, Andrew.

I just nodded, not wanting to say anything else.

Andrew rummaged through Ashley's pockets to find some keys and a gun, presumably both from the warden.

And also a trinket... whatever it was, i don't know, we kept it anyway.

The whole time, we were just walking around in silence with Andrew occasionally telling me what i needed to do.

We found something to get down from the second floor easily, it was also convenient that a window was left open here...

"I'll go get the nail gun from the third floor, you wait here." Andrew said, before walking off leaving me alone with my thoughts of guilt.
