Changed Blood

Chapter 22

We stood up. Her hand in mine.
"I'm not that bad of a guy. Go stand in front of the couch." We shuffled and stood. She looked at me. I gave her the look telling her that he wasn't going to win.
"Now, i know i know, terrible hunter. Such-such a PRICK right? Ugh he doesn't want us together and-just kiss. Just do it, kiss her. Kiss her lips. Really feel eachother. It just might be the last." I looked at him.
"FUCKING DO IT." He yelled. The gun pointing in Niras direction. I looked At her. Wishing we were somewhere else. I grabbed the sides of her face and pulled her in. Just as Hunter said, really feeling her. Her lips were soft. How does she keep herself so kept? After all of this? She opened her mouth only to kiss me again. I so wanted more. So needed more.
"That's enough. Don't need you getting a boner or some shit." He laughed at his own joke and I pulled away. She looked at me. Crying. How I wished I could've made those tears disappear.
"Let me ask you one thing hunter. Just one more thing before you made the dumbest decision yet."
"Oh what would that be?"
"Why."
"Why what?"
"Why did you do all of this? You had no reason. You're just a sick bastard. At least let it out."
"I'm not a bastard. You're the bastard. I might be sick, but, that's not my reasoning pal. You remember violet?" Hunter looked at Nira.
"Did he tell you that story? About, the girl he promised to love forever, only to find her dead in his own home?" Nira said yes outloud.
"She's the sick bastard. For staying with your ass."
"You were the one who raped her." I was getting angry. I could feel myself fuming. I looked away clenching my jaw.
"Do you need a refresher? Do you need to remember what happened that night?"
"I think I remember plenty." He said. Just laughing.
"Then why. Why did you want to, try and ruin my life for the second time?"
"I dont know if there is a reason. Nira started out as a hot bitch, but fell for you. I'm not jealous. I-"
"I never even told on you. I never told anybody what you did so you wouldn't tell my secret."
"Well, after this, the secret will be out. I'll be gone, you'll be gone but, in a different way, everything will just work out fine. Maybe Nira can comfort you in hell." He said, reloading the second gun with 2 bullets. This was really it. I held Niras hand and kissed it. She was truly beautiful now. Burgundy eyes, paler perfect skin. Her smile made me smile. I just wish I could look at her forever. It's a shame that I can't.
"I love you. Even now, I love you." She said. Trying to lean in for a hug.
"I always have and always will."
"Enough bullshit." Hunter said. He pointed the gun and I seen the trigger get pressed. One shot. Hunter was dead. Laying on the floor with a pool of blood surrounding him already.
