Six Feet Under

ten

Everyone had left about an hour ago for some meeting that class was having. I leaned back onto my bed, closing my eyes. Just as sleep crawled inside me, there was a faint, sloppy knock at my door. I opened my eyes, then shook my head. Maybe they will go away. "Ana..." I heard someone cry. I sat up, what the heck. I got up and walked over to the door, I looked through the peep hole. It was Jason. I opened it. "Hey Jason- what the hell?!" He was coated in blood. "Ana." he twitched. I looked out, looked back and forth then pulled him into my room. "What happened! Jason, talk to me!" I asked. He just shook, cried and twitched. He was on something. "I-I'll show you." he started walking to the door. "Not like that, here, change into this. Meet me out by the fountain." I threw him a shirt.
Ten minutes later, Jason came out, his face red. "Now, tell me what happened? Who's blood is that?"  I asked, lowering my voice. He led me out to his car. The sun had set, it was dark out. He opened the backdoor and I almost puked. "Jason!" I cried out. I closed my eyes, attempting to wake from this nightmare. "I'm sorry Ana! He hurt you.." he cried. I moved closer. There was a hole, the size of a golfball on the side of Jacks head. "Jason! What the fuck did you do!!" I cried, my voice cracking. He just cried. What's do I do?!!! "Go, go back to your dorm and take a shower. Get in bed and don't answer for anyone.." I said, my voice harsh. He just stood there. "Fucking go!" I spit. He jumped, then walked off slowly, his hands close to his neck.
I crouched down, crying. "Jack, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry." My heart ached. I heard someone from across the street, I need to get rid of this. I shut the back door, jumped into the drivers seat and cranked the car. I sped off, dust flying behind me.
I parked under a tree somewhere and dialed Nick's number. "Hello princess, how are yo-" he stopped. "Ana? Why are you crying? Are you okay? What's wrong?" he asked. "Mee- meet me at Hillsbury ave, hurry." I said. "I'm on my way." He hung up.
He opened the door and covered his mouth. I wiped my eyes. "Nick, Jason killed him.." I cried. He reached over and pulled me into a hug. "We have to play this out.. I have an idea." he said after a few minutes.

I dialed 911, attempting my best panic. "Nine one one, what's your emergency?" The operator answered. "He- my friend! Help me! Fuc- my fiend shot himself!" I yelled, crying. Nick was beside me, nodding. "Mam, calm down. Is he okay?" she asked. "No! He's dead! He killed him self!!" I yelled. Nick and I had dragged Jack's body into his room and placed a gun a few inches from his hand. "An ambulance is on its way."

I got questioned, my heart sped in my chest. "Mam, its going to be okay." the lady smiled. I nodded. I sure do hope so. "Now, please explain the entire situation." another one said.

Everything seemed to flash by, the weeks passed, months. Jacks death was ruled a suicide, we even attended his funeral. Austin was arrested for the illegally imported drugs, he didn't snitch in Jason. Jason. He was a mess. It was impulse he had said. My nightmares came back, Nick stayed in my dorm with me. Nick and I have gotten closer, like, close. Last week, I accidentally leaned in to far and kissed Nick. I've never felt something like that before. It was.. crazy.
I tore my eyes open, yawning. "Get up.." I groaned. Nick just shook his head. "Nicholas. Get up you ass." I pushed him, he still didn't move. I rolled my eyes. "Stay here with me." his voice was muffled. "I've missed way to many classes." I shook my head. "Please baby." he peeked. "Fine." I leaned back. After a few minutes of just laying there, he spoke up. "How many guys have you been with?" he asked. "None.." I whispered. "Wh- no. Your lying, it's okay Ana I won't judge you." he sat up. "I'm being serious." I said. "Ana.. your a virgin?" he whispered as if someone were to hear. I bit my lip and nodded. "Why?" he asked, fully engaged into the conversation. "I never trusted anyone to take it.." I shook my head. "Do you trust anyone? Like- like what about me? I'm your bestfriend." he said. "Well-.. I did have that dream once but.. I'm sure you don't want-" he cut me off. "Ana,  I would be thrilled to be the one. Makes me hard just thinking about it." he chuckled. I grinned. "I mea- I'm not into casual sex-" he cut me off again. "Anastasia, would you be my girlfriend?" he asked. My heart dropped to the bottom of my stomach. What. "Your kidding.." I shook my head. "No Anastasia, I'm not. And it's not even about the sex, fuck sex. I want you. I want your love. I want you to love me. Because.. because I'm in love with you." he said. "Ever since you first walked up to me at the party. You- I'm in love with you Ana and I can't help myself from falling deeper." he grinned. I don't know why, but I reached forward and pressed my lips to his. I pulled away smiling, I felt it.
