Love Me Like Cobblestone

Chapter 25- Feeling Numb

Ian's POV-

I stare at the beer bottle in my hands and think to myself while messing with it. He hates me. But why? It was so confusing. I didn't like it one bit. So why does it matter? I mean, now I can go and get Madelyn and my life will be set together again. I'll beg for Madelyn to forgive me and we can get remarried. We'll have kids, and a life and live happily ever-but I don't love Madelyn. I loved- wait no no no! I absolutely do not love b-Ben! I mean crainer just- just.. Screw it! Maybe I did love him! But he doesn't love me back! I sigh frustrated. I don't know how to feel about this. All I can get threw my mind is, today is Wednesday and whatever move I make is going to happen tomorrow. I just, couldn't process what crainer said. Does he mean it? I toss the bottle in front of me disgusted now and stand up and head out, I'm just going to get some rest before tomorrow. Do I love him? Or did I make a mistake in the wedding?oh god why did I say no again? Was it because of what Madelyn said? Or was it my feelings for crainer?or Ben I just.. I don't know any more. What is going to happen tomorrow?
~flashback to after Crainers and Ian's conversation because I can~
----Crainers POV----

I back up slowly, stunned; everything looked different. When I stop it isn't from my back hitting the wall, it's someone's fists hitting my head. It all happened so fast, before I know it I'm on my hands and knees trying to figure out what's going on. I feel the side of my head to see red liquid dripping onto the wooden floor and I start to panic. I stare at the now blood puddle wondering how I got caught up in this when I look up, the last thing I see is 2 shadowy figures, right by Ian's door. One is handed what is it... Money to the other..? Wait. As I try to focus harder the person who holds the money looks exactly like me. What's going on? I vision starts to drop and my head starts pounding. I try to stand but someone forces me back down and before I know it I pass out. Everything goes silent and dark.

...Ian, please please please don't be dead
