(EVELYN'S POV)

When I heard the gun, my heart stopped and a strangled scream escaped both Conner and I's lips. I found myself running towards my best friend who collasped on the ground. But when I got there, I realized he had no gun wounds, and he wasn't bleeding. 

"Con, are you okay?"

His body was shaking, and his lips were trembling. But he managed to nod.

I looked up at Todd who was starring at the wall, where a fresh new bullet has just been shot. 

"You got lucky Clarke, now do what I say, or this bullet it going straight through his brain." He warned.

I took a shaky breath and glanced at Conner who was darting his eyes towards the door. 

I knitted my eyebrows together in confusion and watched him carefully. Finally, I understood. I fixed my gaze back on Todd who already took off his jacket. 

"Okay... you win. What do you want?" I asked.

"Strip bitch."

I can't believe I'm doing this... 

I smiled and took off my jacket before walking towards Todd, who seemed amused. Emerala has already left the room, making things less awkward. 

I brought my lips to his jawline, and he groaned slightly. I kissed down to his neck until my hand reached the gun in his. He obediently let go of the gun, and I grabbed it before wrapping my arms around his waist. Conner has already gotten up and is limping towards the door. I continued to kiss Todd's neck, sucking on it once in a while, and trying not to puke. 

Conner slowly opened the door, making it creak. Todd jumped a turned around to shoot, but realized that the gun was in my hand. I brought it up to his temple and he starred at me wide eyed. 

I picked up my jacket and smirked. 

"If you move, I won't hesitate to shoot." 

"You lied to me!" He roared.

 I laughed. "I didn't lie to you, I fooled you stupid." and with that Conner and I walked out of the house, ditching the gun in the process.

"Thanks for saving me Eve." 

I smiled. "No problem, it was my fault you got into this mess." 

He nodded and gazed at the ground. "Look, about what I said at the hospital, I wasn't myself, and I was just angry. Please don't take it to heart, you're not worthless, and you don't deserve to die." 

"Stupid, how long have you known me? Of course I wouldn't take that stuff to heart." I wanted to stop the words that were escaping my lips, because truthfully, I was offended, and hurt by what he said, but I decided not to ruin our friendship any further. 

"I love you Eve.. and I'm really sorry." 

I pulled him in for a hug and buried my face in his chest. "I'm sorry too, and I love you." 

(HARRY'S POV)

"Lou... I kissed Evelyn today." 

He narrowed his eyes at me and made a fist. I was mentally preparing myself to take the punch, but realized he had turned away. He had tears running down his cheek.

"I'm sorry.. It just happened.. and I didn't want to keep it from you" 

He sighed and nodded. "Did she kiss you back?"

I cringed a little. Lou's voice was so blunt  it kinda scares me.  "Yeah."

"Look Lou, I know you're angry with me, but please don't be angry with Evelyn. She's going through enough, and I don't want her hurt anymore."
