James Maslow: Chances

James Maslow: Chances PT 17

You stare at him blankly, slowly shaking your head. 

"I'm sorry YN, I am...I know how you-" James starts. 

"Stop talking! Why would you even say this? I love Kendall and I am having his baby and he loves me!" You say tearing up making your hands to fists. 

"You have to believe me...I don't trust Kendall to do it himself so I had to say something before it went any further." James said as you shake your head. 

"No...No, this is just bull shit that I'm hearing now. This isn't true because he wouldn't ever do this to me. I thought you were better than this! Making up this kinda thing is just...You're just jealous of how my relationship is with Kendall." You say as James recalls what Kendall said to him earlier.

"That's exactly what Kendall said you'd say if I told you...I know you're probably hating me right now..." James says. 

"Just stop, I don't want to hear anything anymore on this. I just want to get out." You say looking at the concrete ceiling. 

James sighs as you shut your eyes leaning your back against the wall. The rest of the night goes on, it feels like its been days by the time it hits midnight as all you do is think about what James has said and why. James hasn't spoken, just tossing little bits of concrete around because of boredom. 

"So...Uh...Kendall's cheating on me?" You say softly as James stops tossing the pieces. 

"Yeah...I don't know who she is, but she's blonde, about his height and they were kissing across the cafe table before I walked inside." James says as you leave your head dangling down. "Do you believe me?"

"I was just over thinking about what's he been doing the past couple of weeks and what he's told me." You say. 

"What has he told you?" James asks. 

"He's been spending a lot of time with his father." You nod. 

"Look, if you don't believe me, you will after you see his face tomorrow." James said smirking to himself. 

"What do you mean?" You ask in confusion. 

"I hit him, he should have a big black eye when you see him." James says a little proud of himself. 

You try not to laugh as you grin a little as you both hear something fall to the ground. 

"Hello?" You say as James tries to look under the small gap of the car to see if he can see someone. "Is anyone there? Hello?!" 

You scream as you both hear nothing. 

"Maybe the wind just blew something over." James shrugs slightly noticing a bottle of fuel knocked over from the bench. "Yeah, I think it was the wind."

"Yeah, maybe." You say relaxing a little as you yawn. 

"Tired already-" James asks before one of the electrical wires fall just above the fuel bottle that fell over. 

Sparks fly around as the fire starts in the garage. 

"Oh shit." James says as you feel the heat. 

"What the hell was that?" You ask trying to look but don't move because James' head is on your leg. 

"Uh...Well, the thing that fell over was a fuel bottle and it must've leaked before the wire broke and sparked it up for a fire." James says trying to stay calm. 

"James there's a fire in here!" You say starting to panic. 

"Hey, just calm down; YN we'll be okay. Trust me." James says squeezing your hand. "But...if the fire does get bigger, I want you to get out. See the gap between the pole, the wall and the car?" 

"James, I'm not-" You start. 

"Just climb on the car and push yourself through, I think you'll fit through that." James nods. "You're still alright, there's no point in you staying here with me because I can't move but you can." 

"Stop! Right now okay! I'm not leaving you even if it's a way out, as you said you can't move so you can't force me to leave you." You say shaking your head, squeezing his hand. 

James sighs softly as the smoke fills the garage; you and James start coughing.

"Try not to breathe this in." James manages to say through the coughs. 

"I'm trying." You say slowly feeling weak and falling back on your hands behind you. 

James notices and tries to lean up off your head. 

"YN are you alright?" James asks trying not to cough. 

"Yeah...I'm just-" You start before coughing some more leaning back further. 

"Stay awake." James coughs. "Don't close your eyes!"

You feel your eyes get heavy as you lay down coughing. 

"YN!" James yells trying to move from under the car, only hurting himself more. 

You cough one last time before shutting your eyes...
