 Prologue 

Blood, a bright, circle of it, seeping though her shirt.

Jessie put her hand on the gaping hole in her chest in shock as crimson welled up between her tan fingers. It poured from the wound like rain falling from the sky. It wasn't stopping- Jessie's wide baby blue eyes followed the path as if it was in slow motion. When it hit the unforgiving dirt of the ground, it made little splashes as if water were hitting pavement. She gasped as if suddenly feeling the pain, dropped to her knees. Her breathe coming out in pants. The coldness, the ruthlessness she seen in Conner's deep green eyes only moments before- was gone.

He just stood there with his mouth open and closing- not knowing what to say.

“...... What happened?” Conner said as he eyed the hole in her chest and rushed forward to grip her by the shoulders to help her stand up. The knife lay on the ground beside them stained with her sickly crimson blood.

“ Jessie... don't close your eyes- come on were going to get you help, you're going to make it.” Conner said in a panic, trying to reassure himself more than Jessie at this point. Conner didn't know if the wound was life-threatening or not, It was lower on her stomach, it probably wouldn’t have punctured anything vital. Still. The blood was gushing. Coming out like water from a tap. Jessie was losing to much blood... He knew this.

“ Jessie, come on tell me what happened” Conner sobbed as he tried to carry her weight to his truck.

She didn't respond, but the words all though unspoken, were clear. Conner, you stabbed me.
