Missing Love

Gun Arising

-Katrina's POV-
Nervously, I sat with Caleb and Gracie in the hospital's waiting room. Ryan and Bryson were taken to the police for questioning and they both would probably end up in jail permanently this time unless the blonde bimbo that bailed Caleb out does the same for them! All Gracie would do is cry and it had come to the point where I wished that she had been shot instead of Starr; it was an evil thought but with all her balling, I couldn't help it. So much was going on in my head and I didn't know whether to tell Caleb I had been spying on him when "the crew" was in the woods or not. That's not all I caught him doing either; I saw Anna and Caleb stay in the woods after Ryan, Starr and Gracie left! They were talking about Serena's body being found and she was apparently alive! Skylar was nowhere to be seen as well but I know she's alive. I can feel it. "GOD DAMNIT GRACIE STOP CRYING AND GET A ROOM!" Caleb yelled! Gracie looked up, her mascara running down her dress like a waterfall. "You of all people should know how it feels to lose two people you love in the same night." Gracie barged out of the room taking her jar of Nutella with her just as Caleb said "Sorry—" Then, Ryan came into the room with a grin, "Why are you smiling at a time like this?" I tilted my head in confusion, probably because Bryson was arrested. "Sorry but I'm free to go because it was 'defense comprehending' or some big words like that." Ryan might be pretty hot but when it comes to English, he has the brain size of a peanut. Suddenly we saw Gracie on a stretcher heading towards the room next to Starr's! "What the hell?" Caleb muttered quietly. Ryan looked as if he had seen a ghost but finally said "It looked like Gracie but it couldn't have been—" A doctor barged in! "Are you friends of Gracie's?" We all nodded and the doctor continued, "We found a large knife missing from a Surgeon's lab and then found your friend in the bathroom with a suicide note and the knife in her heart." I winced just at the thought, "W-Will s-s-she b-b-be o-okay?" I stammered; trying not to faint, "We are trying are best but if she does survive, and that is a pretty big does, she will be in a coma for at least two weeks." Tears started to fill Ryan's dark blue eyes but he managed to say "thank you" I asked if she was allowed visitors but she wasn't until surgery on her heart was completed. The doctor came back later and said "I received the news that it was a direct stab so Gracie has a 1/3 chance of survival. The fact that it was a direct stab leads us to believe this wasn't a suicide because the percentage to have a direct stab in the heart as a suicide is less than it is to survive her stab in general. As for Starr, she is surprisingly awake because her brother Tanner donated blood to her. You can see her after she rests up some more, go home and get some sleep." At least Starr would be alive, but I don't know what I'd ever do without them both by my side.
-TANNER'S P.O.V-
"Why'd you do it Starr? Why'd you take a bullet for him?" Starr looked at me. "Same reason why you donated blood for me. I love him, Tanner." I stared at her. "You love your best friend's ex boyfriend? Starr. Please." Starr rolled her eyes at me. I just sighed. Suddenly, Ryan walked in. "I'll excuse you two." I snapped, and walked out the door.
-Ryan's POV-
I walked over to her, and slowly flipped her arms over, looking at the scars that covered her wrists. I leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Starr. You shouldn't have done that. Look how hurt you are." Starr looked at me and adjusted herself so she was sitting up. "Ryan. I'm in love with you. You are the first guy I've ever felt feelings this strong for. You are my one and only love, and I honestly don't give a shit about how much it hurts Bryson. He was ano-" I cut myself off, feeling stupid. Ryan did know about that! "Bryson was anonymous?!" He shouted, staring at me. Then, we both fell silent. "...then why wasn't he named when we met up with Anna?"
-Bryson's POV-
I angrily thrashed around in my cell. I didn't fucking deserve this! If only Ryan had stayed the fuck away from Starr, this wouldn't have happened. I angrily reached into my bag, that they surprisingly let me have, and pulled out my phone.

I had to make this phone call count.
I called up Anna. "Anna, I'm in jail. Please.. Get me out." I begged. The line was silent. I looked down. She hung up! Suddenly, a police officer walked into the cell. "Bryson, a girl with long, blonde hair paid your bail. You're free to go... For now." I cheered as I ran out of the prison. Time to get my sweet revenge.

-Starr's POV-
I explained the text from Brooke that Bryson had received. I quickly turned my gaze to Katrina and Caleb, who were staring at me with their jaws dropped. "So.. Was Bryson.. "Main A"?" Caleb asked, looking at me. I sighed. "That's what we're trying to figure out." Ryan informed them. "We want to find out everything." Ryan sighed. "But where do we begin?" Katrina asked.

"Bryson's bail was paid." Anna spoke up. "What?!" Everyone in the room cried. "I just got a text. It said.. It said "thanks for the help.. NOT. Now I can get revenge on not only your friends, but you too." She said shakily.

Katrina got up and hugged Anna. "It'll be okay, Anna." She said hastily. Anna nodded. "Thank you.. All of you. I don't deserve this." She said shamefully.

Suddenly the door busted open. "Fucking finally! You're all in one place!" Shouted a voice.
