DollHouse (Beau Brooks Fanfic)

Chapter ♥ 8

“I’m gonna go, and um... Look for... Look f-for, A-Asher.” I stuttered, then walked off quickly.

I tripped over something, and fell into someone.

“I’m so sorry, sir!” I said then looked at who it was.

“You alright?” Luke asked.

“Mm-hm.” I hummed, and nodded my head.

“Who are you looking for?” He asked.

“No one really... I just needed to get away from Beau..” I sighed.

“What happened?” He asked.

I told him the whole thing that just happened.

“They’re not wrong, I mean you two would look good together, and I’m sure he wouldn’t play you. I mean he has been player girls but just to get-” He was interrupted by a loud bang and a crash.

We looked towards the noise, and saw a man in all black and a ski mask running out, but security grabbed him.

Sophia screamed.

“AMBER!!” She screamed, crying.

I hadn’t even noticed that Luke’s hands were still on my waist until I ran away, towards Sophia.

I screamed when I saw my dad laying on the floor bleeding, and lifeless.

“Dad!!” I screamed, and fell to my knees next to him.

“What happened?!” I asked crying.

“That man shot him.” A lady said pointing to the door.

I leaned down to hear if he was still breathing, he was but weakly.

“Someone call triple zero!!” I yelled.

Beau got his phone out and called. He talked for a little while, then turned back to me.

“They will be here shortly.” He said squatting next to me, and putting a hand on my back.

I cried harder, just looking at my dad. I took his hand and squeezed it but he didn’t squeeze back. I cried even harder.

“Shhh, come here.” Beau said pulling me into a hug.

I hugged him back, and cried into his chest.

He rubbed my back as I cried.

“Out of the way!” I heard some people shouting.

“The ambulance is here, along with the cops.” Beau said.

I pulled away, and Beau wiped the makeup from under my eyes with his thumb.

“Thanks.” I said giving him a weak smile.

“My name is Officer Kane are you alright, you’re bleeding.” An officer said to me.

“T-this isn’t m-my b-blood.” I cried.

“I’m sorry. Can you tell me what happened?” He asked.

“That man came in and shot him.” Beau said pointing to the man, the other officers were arresting.

“Does anyone know why he would have want to hurt your father?” Officer Kane asked.

“H-his job. H-he works with the in-investigation t-team.” I said.

“Any cases he might have worked on lately that you know about?” He asked.

“Mmm.. Yea, um the Joey Craig case.” I answered.
