What will happen to us....

The Shot of the Rose

I woke up in my bed that following day. Not remembering what exactly happened that following night, I got up and walked out of my room.  The door bell rang, I walked downstairs rubbing my head from were I hit it.  I looked through the window to see Brandon standing there. 

I opened the door and before I could say anything Brandon gave me a hug "Please, please just listen to me." behind Brandon I saw Mark walking up the street. When he saw me he turned around and started to walk off. "Amy, I am so sorry. I am not mad at you.. I just really miss you.. I don't want this to end.."

I back away, "I don't know.. What about..."

"No, no I don't like her.. I could  never like anyone else but you."

"No, I am sorry but... but I think I am in love with someone else."

" What who?"  Brandon turned around to see Mark walking away.  "Mark? How could you like him? You have never even talked to him."

"But, yet I have.. I have and he gets me.. You just say things, but he, he means the things he says.."

"Amy, you delusional..."

"Sorry what, no.. Now you see that is messed up. If you really loved me you wouldn't have just said that" I backed up "I am sorry but you need to leave."

"Amy, baby.."

"No!" I shouted, but then I softened my voice. "You need to go..." I closed the door and fell to the floor. I went to my room and everything was normal again.

Later I got a call from my home phone, "Amy?" it was Brandon

"What do you want Brandon?"

"I just wanted you to know Mark, he won't come between us after tonight."

"What do you mean?" the line was disconnected "Brandon!! Brandon! Hello!" I dropped the phone and ran outside. Mark was walking home, BANG BANG BANG!!! Mark paused for a second and looked at me. He then soon fell to the ground.. "Mark No!!!" I ran toward him. I fell to my knees beside him and took him into my arms... "Mark..." tears started to storm down my face. and Brandon came out of the dark woods.

"you see he is no longer the problem." he started to laugh "Now you can love me.. Forever and ever."

"Brandon you are crazy.."

"You don't love me do you..." he raised the gun.

"Bran..." BANG I fell...

"Now feel the pain you caused me.." He said crouching next to me. "All of it.." he walked off dropping the gun... BANG!! the gun shot off and he fell to the ground...

Everything went empty.. I opened my eyes and the street was empty Brandon and Mark gone.. "Hello! is anyone here?"

"Amy?" I turned around, it was Mark.

"Mark!" I ran to him.

He took me into his arms. "it's Okay.. I am here.."

"Don't leave me.."

"I won't.. I will always be here for you..."

"Mark?"

He stepped back and pulled out a rose..

"Mark can I ask you something? Why did you always leave a rose at my door step?"

"Because, I couldn't ever come to you directly. I was hoping one day I would be able to tell you that it was me. It has always been me, and that I love you.."
