A Different Look

Chapter 24 || CHLOE

I inched backing up on the floor. Tears of fear coming out of my eyes. I was praying Ricky would just show up. But no.

Josh then pulled out a knife. Extremely sharp. "It cuts easy." He smirked. He stood me up and had me pinned against the wall. He poked me with the knife.

It was sharp because it made me bleed.

I winced knowing it was gonna happen when all of a sudden Josh let go and fell and I saw blood. I saw and a knife in his back.

I looked up and saw Ricky standing there breathing hard looking down at what had just happened. I stepped over Josh to stand by Ricky.

"He's gone now" he said still looking down. I looked at him and he looked at me. I hugged him my arms around his neck and began to cry.

I don't know if the were tears of shock, or happiness. But Ricky saved me. He just saved the rest of my life.

The paramedics put Josh on a stretcher. Ricky reported what had happened. I walked around. My eyes wide. A crime scene. A beautiful crime scene. Josh was gone. Ricky was charged with simple self defense.

Days, weeks, months passed. We graduated safe. I'm still happy with Ricky.

I think having a Different Look at things made my life a whole lot happier.
