To Win The Queen's Heart

Farewell, my love...

My head started spinning with questions as soon as Elsa left the room. What does she have up her sleeve? Why does she want to see Kirstie?

Why did she talk like she was saying goodbye?

My eyes scan the room and I desperately try to figure out how I'm going to get us out of here, but nothing pops up. I let out a sigh and turn my head to look at Mitch. He looks tired and scared...but I can't help but wonder what else is going on his mind right now. I break my stare and investigate my surroundings again. There must ...

"Scott?"

That took me by surprise.

"Yeah?"

Mitch stays silent for a while trying to search for his words. I wonder what is going on in his mind. What if he feels what I feel right now?

"Scott....I'm sorry..."

I turn to him, looking straight into his eyes.

"Elsa tried everything in her power to fight me off. It was crystal clear that she wanted no one but you, loved no one more than she loved you. I was stupid I...I didn't listen. But I swear I didn't mean to hurt anyone and I'd never forgive myself if..."

And he cracks. I've honestly never seen Mitch like this and it saddened me to the core. I took him in my arms and held him as tight as I possibly could.

"She'd do anything to keep you. I've honestly never seen anyone love so deeply than she does..."

"I know...I don't deserve her. And I forgive you, Mitch. I don't want to lose you as a friend."

Mitch pulls away and looks at me with a weak smile. With those beautiful brown eyes and amazing smile, it makes me wonder why Elsa chose me over him. Come to think of it they would make a cute couple. But I love Elsa and no one will take her away from me.

Suddenly a big bang sounded and sirens were ringing everywhere and the door suddenly opened. Mitch and I took a quick sprint out when a thought came to mind.

"Elsa!" I exclaimed and rushed towards the place I remembered where Jeremy was with Mitch not far behind me. We were basically sliding around the corners and when we arrived at the door...

In a spit second everything was vague, out of focus. I rushed towards Elsa who was on the ground, not moving a muscle. I found myself in tears, screaming, shouting for her not to leave me. I looked up to find Kirstie sitting against the wall and it looked like she was badly injured. My eyes traced across her body when the gun in her hands caught my eye.

"K-Kirstie...how could y-you..."

"It...Scott let me explain..."

I held up my hand, cutting her off. I didn't want to hear it. I let Mitch call the ambulance and in between it all, Kirstie blacked out and despite my anger towards her, I was scared. I was terrified of losing the two most important ladies in my life.

I looked down at Elsa and a tear drop fell on her shirt.

I can't lose her. I just can't.

A few minutes later paramedics came in and took her and Kirstie away. Arriving at the hospital I spot a few familiar faces. Elsa's parents, her friends Chris and Sky. Sky spotted me and rushed up to me and before he could do anything, Mitch grabbed hold of his arm.

"This is not what she wants now, is it?"

"But if she dies its your fault!!" Sky spat into Mitch's face and to my surprise, Mitch took it calmly.

"Believe it or not I know exactly how you feel but it's not going to help. Please, don't do this."

After moments of pointless hesitation Sky finally let go and walked away. At that moment Avi and Kevin arrived and each embraced me and Mitch in a hug.
