Becoming the Bad Boy
Chapter 16

I quickly press the answer button as I looked down at my phone and saw Aprils name lighting up the screen.

"Hello?"

There was uncontrollable sobbing on the other side of the phone and my heart lurched at the thought of something happening to April. I stood up, my chair knocked over behind me, and ran to my car, speeding off into the direction of her house.

"What's wrong? April, baby? Are you okay? Speak to me! I'm on my way, hold on baby girl." My heart sped up. What the fuck was happening. I pushed down on the accelerator and sped down the streets even faster.

"He's here, Ezra." She whispered in the phone, her emotions leaking through her, making her voice crack. "He's in the house."

Who? Fuck it.. I'm going to kill whoever that is. Nobody makes her fucking cry.

"Where are you?" I asked, finally arriving at her house and bounding up the pathway so that I could reach her.

"In the bathroom. Oh God!" I heard heavy pounding on the door and April breaks down into more tears, breathing heavily.

My feet bounded up the stairs as I caught sight of the man hammering his fists into the bathroom. No fucking way. It was him. How could he? I didn't know he would stoop down to this level and hurt innocent people. But, I guess he would do anything to get to me, to hurt me in the most excruciating way possible.

"Father." I said as he whipped around and stared at me in shock. "Ezra!" He breathed out, his voice shaky as a small, sinister smile appeared on his face. "This just became better."

In two large steps, he was in front of me, his large hands wrapped around my neck, pushing me into the wall behind him. "It'll be just like old times, huh?" He said, chuckling to himself. I closed my eyes to fight back the memories that fought to find their way to me. No! I will not remember. I took in a big gulp of air, "What do you want?"

He laughed, bending over and clutching his stomach. All to soon, he stood up straight and slapped me across the face, my head flung to the side. I bit my lip to prevent my mouth from saying the words that my brain was conjuring up. This is my father. He deserves respect. "I want you to suffer, you killed my wife, bitch!" He screeched in my face, his breath hitting me. He was drunk. I barely noticed the sound of the bathroom door unlocking as April slipped out, watching the scene unfold in front of her until she spoke. "Leave Ezra alone, Mr Dalton."

He turned his malicious snarl to her and I watched as she flinched back. "Stay out of this, slut."

He stalked towards her and I finally unfroze from the shocked state that I was stuck in.

"Stop, dad."

I cautiously watched as his eyes slowly softened. "Dad." He whispered to himself, his tongue soft as he repeatedly spoke the word. But as he looked up, his gaze hardened and I once again cringed from the raw hatred that was emitted. He is no father of mine.

I didn't see it, only felt it. I only felt it pierce through my skin and embed itself into my body.

I slowly sunk into the ground, my knees supporting my weight. I could hear voices in the distance, but none of them made sense. My eyes rolled back and I collapsed onto the floor, welcoming the darkness. Because, along with the darkness came peace.

My eyes shot open as I remembered everything. I could feel my heart beat more erotically as the oxygen mask tightened around my face. Avoiding all the wires, I reached up to pull it away from my face so I could breath in the stale breath that seemed to be emitting from the room I was in.

I was shot.

I was fucking shot by my own father.

A slight groan made me snap my eyes to the side. April was curled into a ball on the chair, sleeping uncomfortably.

The door suddenly swung open and Jason jumped on me, hugging me really hard. I gasped for breath, not able to get enough air into my lungs because this fat ass was sitting on top of me.

He then pulled back and stared into my eyes with a scared and worried expression on his face. "Welcome to the future Ez! You missed 3 years of your life." My eyes widened in shock. 3 whole years!? My eyes watered as I stared at the people around me. April, still asleep on the chair. Danny, who just entered with Brandon. And Jason, sitting on top of me.

My lip quivered. "I missed 3 years of my life?" By now, the tears were rolling down my cheeks. How could I have missed so much? In 3 whole years, I never told April I loved her. I never graduated- who knows where that will take me in life- I'll never have a stable future.

I looked down at Jason through my eyelashes and found him sprawled across the floor, laughing his ass off. Why was he laughing?

I looked at Danny. "He's joking babe!" I growled, but before I could do anything, Danny pounced on me, hugging the life out of me. "Don't you dare nearly die on me again! Your too sexy to die!" My eyes widened as I pushed Daniel off my lap. He landed on top of Jason and they both made oomph sounds when their bodies met. Next was Brandon as he came forward to ruffle my hair. Slowly, we all heard more groaning and looked towards April uncurling herself.

"Stop making noise, you dickheads." Jason, Danny and Brandon all made sounds of pretest as I smirked.

"That's hurtful, Princess." Her eyes widened as they met with mine. She quickly joined our lips and kissed me as though she was scared. I returned it with the same emotion. Of course I would be scared of losing her.

She pulled back and buried her face in my neck, breathing in. I smiled as I pulled her closer to my body.

"I love you." She stated and kissed my cheek.

"I love you too."

Yeah I loved this girl. And no one will try to take her away from me again. At least as long as I still live.

And... Scene.
