Michael- "Your friend seems nice." Shelley- "Yeah we've more like sisters we've been best friends since we were little." Michael- "Good for you. Well I should probably get going too." Shell didn't really want him to leave just yet plus he got shot. Shelley- "You sure that's a good idea? I mean your arm." Michael don't worry it doesn't hurt as much anymore. It's just my arm not my leg I can still walk." Shelley- "I could drive you home instead." Michael- "Thanks but it's too dangerous. Trust me they see a fancy car like yours and they'll not hesitate to steal it by any means necessary I'll add." Shelley- "Oh, well if the place is as dangerous as you say then maybe you should stay here at least till your arm is better." She felt a little embarrassed asking him to stay but she didn't wanna risk him getting shot again the next time could be fatal. Michael- "I would like to stay but I think it's best we don't see each other anymore." Shell was a little hurt by his words. Shelley- "What are you talking about? Why are you pushing me away?! You can't go back there now you're hurt and next time it happens you may never wake up again!" Michael gives her an annoyed look. Michael- "Look I don't need you looking out for me I can do that myself! I appreciate you fixing my arm but you don't need to worry about me! I told you Shell I'm not a good person. I've done things in my past I'm not proud of and I know you'll regret ever meeting me." Shelley- "Is that what you think? That I'll judge you cause of your past?! Let me ask you something better yet ask yourself, who are you now?" Michael looks down. Michael- "I'm a nobody." Shell shakes her head. Shelley- "No you are somebody you just don't know it yet. You're somebody to me." Michael looks at her. Shell starts to turn around but Michael pulls her back and crashes his lips against hers. Shell could've melted right there and then she felt like her legs were about to give away. The feel of his soft warm lips were heaven she couldn't help but kiss him back. Michael suddenly realized what he was doing and broke the kiss. Michael- "I-I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry I have to go." He starts to head to the door. Shelley- "Wait! Michael don't go please!" Michael didn't say anything he just rushed out the door with Shell chasing after him. Shelley- "Michael come back please!" Michael turns around. Michael- "Just leave me alone! Don't you dare follow me Shell I mean it! Stay away from me!" Shell stood there with tears in her eyes watching him run off.
Michael ran as fast as he could till he couldn't see her anymore. He hated himself so much right now for leaving like that. It was a long walk but he managed to make it back to his place. He couldn't Shell off his mind and the look on her face when he yelled at her haunted him. He goes to the fridge to grab a beer to help clear his head but by the 5th bottle he just couldn't stop thinking about Shelley. At that moment something inside him snapped he threw the bottle against the wall shattering it into dozens of pieces, knocking over the table or anything in his path and he started punching holes in the wall until hands started bleeding. The pain in his hands and arm were no bigger than the one his heart. He drops to the floor with his back against the wall and his face his hands pouring his eyes out. He whispered sobbingly "I'm so sorry Shelley!"
A little while later at the old warehouse. Venom- "Good job buddy. We're nearly close to fulfilling our destiny." Praying Mantis #1- "You said you sent Smooth and 6 other of your guys to the deal, right?" Venom- "Yeah, why?" Praying Mantis #1- "They said they only 6 Scorpions. Do you think he could still be alive?" Venom- "Aw shit! Looks like we'll have to go to plan B." Praying Mantis #1- "What's plan B?" Venom- "Don't worry Claws. I'll come up with something I always do."
