The End.
Luke's POV
Michael and I left the hospital with Miracle.
The doctors said she was perfectly healthy, which I was thankful for.
Matt and his whole crew got locked away and are to be locked away for 10 years.
Serves him right, I found out he used to run a drug business 3 years ago. And the cops have been on the search for him since then.
Turns out he cheated a lot people out of their money and they were out to kill him.
My mind was now cleared of Matt and all his troubles that followed him. I was now focused on my daughter and my boyfriend.
I watched as Michael held her small body to his chest as soft snores escaped her lips.
Michael hummed a song to her which I didn't recognize. But it sounded very beautiful.
Michael looked up at me and gave me a goofy grin which just made me look at him weird.
He layed Miracle down in her play pen and walked over to me.
"Luke, are you okay"?
"Of course I am, why wouldn't I be"?
" You were looking at Miracle and I weirdly, that's why I gave you that goofy face"
"Oh it's nothing, I'm just glad to see everyone is safe and okay" I said giving him a reassuring smile.
He nodded and walked into the kitchen and started making tea.
I slowly got up off the couch and went up to the room.
When I entered the room I reached under the bed and grabbed the brown box.
In it was the phone I needed. I called the only number on it.
"When it's time" was the contact name.
*ring* *ring*
"Luke"?
"Yeah um it's me"
"Did you do as planned"?
"Yeah, um she was born remember and Michael seems very fond of her"
I bit my lip.
" good, when do you wanna do it"?
" How about tomorrow, right now would be too early"
"Luke, we've been waiting 2 years"
" I know Matt and I'm sorry, but he thinks I love him and that we will have this perfect family"
" You know that was the plan, fake an abusive relationship, find Michael, get pregnant, get a crew together, fake a kidnapping and arrest"
" I know, please don't remind me it all sounds so fucked up"
I bit my lip harder.
" Luke, tonight is the night. Grab Miracle and her stuff and when you put her in the car with me and the guys, shoot Michael"
" but"
" This is what we wanted right"?
"Yes"
" Every since we found out he was back in town, we had to get rid of him, and it helped that he was in love with you"
" True, okay, tonight"
" There you go my love, see you at midnight"
I hung up the phone and put it back in the box and slid it back under the bed.
The clock stroke 11 and I knew what I had to do.
I know what you're thinking. What the hell.
Well here's a back story for you.
Matt and I are madly in love. We always have been. I was with Matt when he started his drug business. It was a way to make easy money. Until we ran out of the good stuff and had to sell the fake stuff. One day a man came in looking for some weed. It was Michael. Matt sold him the fake shit. And when Michael always came around he talked to me, but had to idea I was in on the business because at that time I was pregnant with my son Max. When Michael found out all the weed was fake, he said to Matt that he'd come after him and he'd claim me. That night I had a miscarriage and lost Max. And that night Matt and I fled and lived in the house close to Michael for years. I dyed my hair blonde and went to school with Michael. Faked screams and bruises so he'd notice me. Made him think I was in love with him. And during this I got pregnant with Miracle. Matt and I planned the fake kidnapping so we could led Michael on. The arrest. Was a set up. Fake cops. Matt and the crew lived right next to use still. Watched us. And now to the present.
I went into the closet and grabbed the silver gun and put it down in the back of my pants.
I saw Michael asleep on the couch and so I grabbed Miracle and he diaper bag as I heard the car pull up.
I handed my little girl to her dad and he took her bag. He nodded at me and I kissed him and went back inside.
I stood right above Michaels face. I held my finger on the trigger.
One of his eyes opened.
"Luke what the hell"?
" Do you remember me yet"?
" What are you talking about"?
" My name back then was Tyler remember, I worked with Matt in the drug business and he sold you fake weed and you threatened to come back to him and take me"
His eyes widened.
" All this time, everything was an act"!
" Yes and I'm not sorry"
" THAT FACT THAT I LOVED YOU THE FACT THAT I-"
*gunshot*
Bullseye.
