Good Girl Gone Bad ✔️

23

I ran to Emily's bedroom and pushed open the door. She was sitting up in her bed, sweat and tears on her face.

I walked to her slowly and softly hugged her. She hugged me back tightly. It didn't bother me that her sweat and tears were getting all over me. As long as Emily is okay.

"I can't take this anymore, Josh. Just make them go away," she whispered, her voice cracking at the end.

My heart shattered. I buried my face in her neck and had to contain myself from placing a kiss on her, even a tiny one.

"You'll be okay. We'll get through this together," I whispered. She rested her head on my shoulder and we stayed there, hugging for a while.

In my head I thought, what are you doing to me, Emily?

Emily

It was nearly midnight. I couldn't sleep. Everything was swirling around in my head. I was going to hurt the people who I love.

It's my fault that they are trying to help me. I should've tried to get rid of him before my friends got involved.

I got out of bed and changed. I looked out of the window and it was dark, very dark. I placed on a black shirt and leather pants, along with a leather jacket. I quietly walked to my bed and reached under it.

I felt the hard box and pulled it out. Taking a deep breath, I put in the code and opened it. I reached my hand in and pulled out the two black guns. I needed to get rid of him once and for all. Even if it means killing him.

Placing one in the small slit on the side of my leg and one inside my jacket, I grabbed my car keys and walked out of my bedroom.

I didn't feel scared anymore. I was a girl who is just trying to find justice for my mother. I felt determined and brave. As I passed all the other bedrooms, I didn't stop once.

However, I stopped before heading out the front door. Putting on my black boots, I felt a tear slide down my cheek.

Gigi, this may be last time I see you and Brandon. Please don't worry about me.

And Josh, this may be the end for us. I never knew the type of relationship I had with you, but I am glad we met.

Please stay safe. I might die, but it's for the best. I put you in this danger and now I am going to take you out of it. Take care of everyone for me.

This is goodbye. Don't  worry about me.

-Emily

I placed the note on the front door and held back a sob. With that, I walked out the door, leaving my loved ones behind.
