One of a Kind

Chapter 46: Alec

I didn't know how to react, it all happened so fast. One second Evie is talking Kiera down from killing me, and the next I hear the shots ring. Asher got me free and I saw the two bullets heading straight for Evie. I didn't think and instead just acted but I was too far and the bullets were too fast. They hit her, one in her chest and the other in her neck. Her gray shirt wasn't gray anymore, it was red that you couldn't even tell that it was supposed to be gray.

Nolan was applying pressure to her chest wound while Sophie was applying pressure to her neck wound; Sophie was shaken, tears were streaming down her face, and I saw her begin to shake. The stress and shock were finally hitting her. Trevor sent a bullet her way but Beau jumped in front, it only got his shoulder, but Evie wasn't that lucky. All I wanted to do was kill Trevor but Kiera had it taken care of. He was knocked out on the floor and Kiera was pinning everything on him. Trevor was going to jail for a long time.

"Nolan there's no reception," Beau groans as he puts his phone back in his pocket.

"Shit," Nolan curses, "She's bleeding too much; we have to get her to the hospital."

Asher pulls key out of his pocket, "I'm going to pull up the car. We put her in and I speed there; it's the only other choice we have."

"Go then," Beau nods. Asher sprints out the building but I still stand in the same place I've been since she got shot. I was so close, I could've knocked her down and let the bullets hit me but just as I reached her, the bullets hit her. I saw her fall, grabbing her before she could hit the ground, blood covering my hands and dress shirt that I still had on from prom.

I should probably explain what had happened prom night. After Kiera and I went to her car, we began making out on the passenger seat. She wanted sex and I couldn't do it. The dance with Evie was still ringing through my mind and she was all I could think of. I wanted to have sex and make out and forget about Evie but I couldn't. All I could think about was her and how beautiful she looked dancing and smiling. But I couldn't do that to Asher, he really liked her, he even told me he was going to ask her to prom. How could I ask her when my best friend was going to; I couldn't do that to him so I went with Kiera.

But I had to stop Kiera, I couldn't do it. It would hurt Evie, she'd think that all I want is sex and that's not true. I want her.

And then I remember Kiera getting angry and trying to make out with me furiously but I pushed her off and next thing I know, I passed out. Turns out she chloroformed me; crazy bitch. So I woke up chained to a pipe and listening as she and Trevor planned how to get Evie here. I'd never felt more helpless in my life; Evie was going to come to her death and I couldn't do anything about it.

"Alec!" Sophie shouts, bringing me out of my head.

"Yeah?"

"Okay you have to carry Evie in the car. We'll keep pressure but you have to carry her."

I nod, "Let's do it."

I didn't realize how pale she'd gotten, or how much blood was really coming out of her. But I had to get her to the car quickly before she bleed out. Asher was in the driver's seat, Beau took the passenger's seat while we piled in the back, laying Evie along our legs so she can be as straight as possible. They held pressure and Asher sped to the hospital so fast that I was surprised no cop stopped us. But we got there in record time.

Piling out, Sophie was the first one in the hospital, shouting that we needed a doctor and our friend was shot and that caused a panic. A stretcher was brought and we laid Evie on there; nurses and doctors pushed us away, leaving us in the waiting room as they wheeled Evie off, trying to save her life.
