We ran through the forest, as the night was ours I felt the breeze of the wind rush through my hair. “Catch me if you can Alexander” I yelled behind me, I stopped in realization of the sudden silence “Alex” “Alex” I felt the steal arms grab me. I knew it was not Alex I turned around and I saw him, he covered my mouth and I felt the chill in my spine. I heard the gun shot, and I felt his hands lose grip. I felt light on my feet “Alex” I screamed no one answered I couldn’t see anything just blackness no light at all. “Alex” I wanted to yell but I couldn’t talk how could he not respond where was he. I open my eyes and saw the lights from the room I couldn’t tell where was I until I found the bed I lay in. “Alex” I whispered I felt my voice regain its strength “Alex” I yelled until I couldn’t. The doctor barged in my room he started to check me and than he smiled “welcome back” he said “from where” I yelled more loudly than I wanted too. “You were in coma for the last 5 years,” he said sourly. “The last five years” I repeated him as if I were retard. “Yes” he left the room, and the questions were piling up, but the one that stuck out was where was Alex. The tears started to stream down slowly I could not remember anything. I try to get off the bed and I did not see or feel right I tried to get up again but the attempt was useless. “Suzie” I heard from the hall it wasn’t Alex but a voice that needed to hear “Mandy” I didn’t recognize her but it was her the eyes were the same but in a unfamiliar face. “Mandy you came where’s Alex,” I said hurt to see that he was not with her. “Suzie please be strong” “spit it out Mandy” I wanted to die when the words came out of her mouth. “His in jail because he tried to kill you and your dad.” “He wouldn’t he always protected me he will never hurt me”. Suzie wake up the guy you loved killed your dad and put you in this bed in coma for five freaking years” the tears were now didn’t find no ending. I couldn’t believe that the guy I gave my life too is now in jail for trying to kill me, she knew I have given up. She hugged me and kept whispering is going be alright.
Chapter2 Suzie
I awoke because tension of my back where the stitches were made of the gunshot, but it really didn’t matter because all I would and could dream of was of Alex. Maybe he tried to kill me but I cannot stop loving him he is and will always be the sun on my mornings. I needed to see him I couldn’t keep this angry feelings in my throat, but I know that I wont be strong I can’t stay away from him I needed to leave. NowI was older and I looked very different would he recognize me. “Suzie get out of here,” Mandy screamed from the hall of the outside. “Why” I yelled back I open the door had my eyes devised me I was seeing Alex maybe more muscular but it was him. I looked in his eyes some how their were sadder but it was him when I wanted to run to him reality hit me. I turn the other way and tried to open the main window in the room I slept in he saw me and I ran faster but I couldn’t open the window he came closer and my heart was beating faster and faster every step he took then I heard the sirens and he was gone. Disappointment took place in me I wanted him to be with me but it wasn’t right. “Suzie” I heard Mandy’s voice it sounded like she had being crying “am here” she came slowly and looked around to make sure that he wasn’t there. She rushed to my side as fast as she could “are you okay Suzie” no am not was that Alex”? “yes” she responded as quietly “I don’t want to see him” I lied she looked at me and said “he escaped from jail” I couldn’t breath, but I needed to cry I burst into tears and the night came out only memories of Alex the moon had brought. I had to see him but that little voice in my head saying he is dangerous even though there was one louder that screamed my love for him. I fell asleep waiting for him to take me in his arms and we just run until the end. The sun beams in my eyes and my heart seem to hurt more than yesterday for I knew that maybe I will never see Alex again is not that I didn’t want to it was impossible for him to come to me. I got up to go to the restroom I looked in the mirror and I saw no difference in my body or face but I never felt more different. I can’t say he did it or didn’t try to kill me but all I really knew was that I loved him. “Suzie” Mandy’s voice called in nerves tone “am in here” relive flushed through her face she smiled in the most polite way “so”. I asked “nothing I just wanted to see if you hadn’t run off to do something stupid”. “Like what huh”? “I don’t know I just thought that maybe you would go and look for Alex” I looked to the ground because I couldn’t lie to her in her face. “I wouldn’t go and look for him to let him finish what he started,” I said an annoyed tone. She couldn’t help to get a little edgy and left the restroom I turned to the mirror searching for who I was before but no trace. I lied in my room thinking of how and what I do to get out of this nightmare I looked around and I knew what I had to do I couldn’t just sit there doing nothing all my life I had a plan. I opened the door “Mandy” I screamed and before I could close my eyes she rushed to my room “ya” she replied. “I want to go back to school’ her eyes lit up “of course well am sorry but I kind already put you in a school” thanks you’re the greatest aunt ever thanks”. “You’re welcome you start tomorrow” I knew that school would be the best for me to get my mind away from him. I went to bed with that little sensation of butterflies in my stomach even though my heart ached it is time for a new chapter in my life he won’t take over me and I will forget him. "Suzie wake up time for school” I lay in the bed for a while until I got the nerve to get up I really didn’t want to go but the choice was easy stay here or go to a college and well like I don’t want to think about him I rather go. “Am ready aunt” “good you’re going to love Paris” “Paris” I repeated her statement “yes” I didn’t want to leave but I couldn’t take the risk that you see him again. I got in the car with the intention of running, but I knew what I had to do. The drive was quiet and I just couldn’t forget the way he looked at me they way he came to me. I wanted to see him tell him I was leaving. I open the door of the car somehow the car that was behind us since the beginning was still there. I ignored it but something just didn’t fit. “When you get there you’ll meet Christen he is the son of your moms best friends.” “Thanks” we hugged and I left to the plan I found my seat and went to sleep instantly somehow my dreams where changing now they were more colorful than before. I can see him but his smiling and his laughing with me, and than all the sudden, his gone I wake up. “are you okay young lady your mumbling about a tree and somebody called Alex” “ya sure am okay no worries,” I said with a warm smile. He didn’t ask nothing else in the trip he was creped out I but I don’t blame him. The woman started to speak in the speakers of the airplane the boy behind me mocked the woman it was funny. I was the last one out of the plane even though I was in the front I guess I didn’t want to get out, I had to go dang the day I freaking woke up. I walked out and I had no idea how to go where I had to and I saw a chafer with a sign with my name on it I figured he was waiting for me. “Hi am Suzie” “you took your sweet time to come out oh I get it you don’t have to explain you were in the restroom I get it the burritos are criminal” “ no I just didn’t want to get out and they didn’t serve burritos” he laughed and led me to the limo. I got in the limo and he started to drive I stared out the window and I faced the biggest mansion known to my eyes. “We’re here” “thanks” “no problem just stay away from the burritos” I gave him a warm smile and he drove away. My grandma was waiting out she gave me a hug “Suzie hello my sweet grandchild” “hi grandma” “come in please come in” “Maris will show you your cabin” secretly I was kind of shock she had looked happy because I was here I guess I should not think of her that way even though she does deserve it. “Wow you look just like your mom too bad she’s gone huh”? “ya I really do miss her” “well let Maris take you to your cabin.” I followed her to the cabin just few feet away from the house it was merely any sun so it was kind of dark. She smiled and begun to talk after a second of silence, “so your dad is Mario” ya that’s my dad” his very nice guy I’ve heard, but am afraid I never saw him”. “I have some pictures if you like to see him” “sure” she unlocked the door and I went in as she followed behind me. The cabin was big as the house it was elegant more than my house worth a lot. The decoration were as a princess it was beautiful. “Would you like me to leave you alone I can come back later” “no my pictures are in top and I like your company” “okay” I looked through the bag of clothes and I found it I found the pictures of my lost dad the one that had abuse me for so long and died saving me. “Here this is him” “wow his different than I thought he looks older than he really is” he is been through a lot he saw my mom died” the tears started to stream down when a different voice called out my name “Suzie”. The guy came in rushing with no breath “you found me” he looked up, and smiled “thank god I found you I didn’t know that your grandma send some one ,and I went to look for you and when I didn’t see you I ran to see if your grandma had got you, and here you are”. “Yup am sorry I knew you were going to pick me up is just that I thought that maybe you couldn’t come and I saw the guy with my name” he smiled while relive wash over him “are you ready to go”? “Where”? I asked confused “to school if we don’t leave than we might be late” “oh okay ya lets go”. I followed him out the cabin to his car which was pretty weird nothing like I guess it would be he opened the door and I steeped in he went to the drivers seat and we left to where he took me. “So how you been all these years” “is been a long blur” he drove to a campus not to far from the woman house, well my grandma’s house as she claims. “Where here” he said in a warm smile. The bell rang and he hurried out of the car opened the door, and helped me out. We went inside and he didn’t waste any time on me he left me in front office where a woman stood in surprise. “What’s your name? She asked too fast, so I didn’t hear her “excuse me” I said slowly “what’s your name Hun” “Suzie Rants” “Mrs. Rants you say” she said in a disgusted tone. Her mood changed in a sudden moment “here’s your schedule by the way thank your family for me please” she said in the most hateful way. “Sure” I left to find the class 103d where could it be I started to walk with more urgency. I faced down searching to see if maybe I could find a direction nothing I suddenly felt the sudden push that drop me to my knees I looked up “are you okay” he held his hand out “ya thanks” he picked up the notebooks that I had dropped. He looked at my schedule “103d is the class your looking for” he said with a smirk that made my heart warm. “yes do you know where is it” It is my class too we have the same schedule except last class but ill take you where you need to go”. I followed him without a word and less than a brief second he stopped I guess that we were there. He knocked and a big tall man opened the door he looked at the person that lead me to my class. “Ahh Mr. tuner late again, I told you that if you were late again”
He stopped in middle of his sentence “who are you”? He said in curious tone “am Suzie Rants” I said almost scared of the person. He started to hesitate “sit down Ms. Rants” he pointed to the seat almost in front of the room I wondered why no one sat there did he spit? I sat down and the person that brought me sat next me. I drove away from reality I couldn’t help thinking of Alex the name stung the heart that he broke. His gone I had to repeat it in my head, but I didn’t believe it my heart didn’t want to believe it. Whether he shot me or not I would never live in peace I’m okay now. Whom I’m I kidding I can’t let him go he is the most beautiful part of my life even though I probably didn’t mean any thing to him. I wont forget I will just bury him in my soul where no one is allowed to go in I looked at the guy next to me he smiled. I blushed to the sudden of discover that I was looking at him. The bell rang and he gathered my books for me he took me to the next class and as every teacher, they looked at me in a different way like the one I did something to them. I guess I couldn’t let them get to me I had one purpose in life to forget Alex, and I will I promise. If that was possible one day to wake up and say I don’t love him I don’t him, but that is not possible to forget the one loved and never love again. “Suzie is something wrong” I look up and the person was there looking at me. “No of course not why do you ask,” I lied “oh because the bell already rang and you didn’t notice” he said kind of concern. “Sorry are we going to be late” I said embarrassed “no lunch time don’t worry I will invite so when can official meet” he smiled. We went to his car it was a white Volvo it was very nice, he opened the door and I got in he drove five min away from the school to this nice restaurant. He got out, and opened my door we went inside he went straight the table “so you like my dads restaurant”? “Your dads” I said “ya my died father” “oh I’m sorry” he smiled “so my name is Christopher” “nice to meet you I’m Suzie” I smiled. I felt my heart move again but only slightly
Alex
Where was I going now I can’t let this thought get to me? This is Paris and Suzie can’t be too far I just have to find her grandmas house and take her with me. I found a good street to sleep in because I could not go to the hotel and give them my name I cannot forget im a runaway. I closed my eyes her face felt so close to mine, she aged, but it did her right. The day I went to look for her she ran from me my heart stopped at even the thought that she thinks I could have done something to hurt her. She is my life my heart and the pain in my self I couldn’t hold her tell her how long I had waited to hold her in my arms and tell her I love her. I rested my head in the wall and drove myself to sleep with the hope of finding the other piece of my heart. Soon I will have you in my hands I thought as I drifted away. My eyes fluttered open at the sudden touch on my face I grab the people hand and he atomically stops me. I smiled at the result I saw “dad” I said “my dear son” he cried. “Look what that stupid girl has done to you” he shrieked I felt angry wash over me “that stupid girl is the love of my life”. I said as sharp as I could “I will fight for her she is the reason I still breath”. “She doesn’t love you she didn’t fight for you that’s why you’re a runaway” he braked at me. Than he smiled “im sorry”, he said, “Let’s go home” than it occurred to me “how did you get here”. Than I awoke, my dad is dead and im here by myself. I look around my soundings and felt lost abounded but the memory of Suzie kept me warm. I open my eyes a few more times to make sure that I wasn’t dreaming, but what really got me was that my dad said Suzie didn’t care for me. That stung even dead I still respect him he died not soon after that she went into coma and I went to jail. I missed her I missed her smile she always had a book in her hands who would have thought I would fall for her she was out my league. I would never forgive myself for what I have done to the one I loved I deserve what im getting slowly the pain return to my chest I couldn’t breath a guy that pass by me came close. “Are you okay man”? The guy asked “no worries man thanks” I said while he picked me up. “You look tired” he stated he looked around and said “you will come home with me, but I will make you work understood”. I shook my head so he would know I understood I went in his car in prayed he didn’t do any harm, but really what choice I had. We drove up to a pizzeria not to far from where I slept. “This is where you will work and in my pizzeria you will have food and a bed to sleep” he said loud as he could “thanks” I started but he interrupted “don’t thank me now if you ever fail me I will put you back where I found you”. “I wont let you down I promise” I worked hard to find my dear Suzie but I could never find her. I worked days without sleep nights with no food to finish the job the old sincere man had assigned for me. I listened to everything he had to say cause he gave me food shelter even the peace I needed, but I cant stand to know that the love of my life was somewhere close to me “where are you” I screamed. I couldn’t sleep to night the thought of Suzie gave no me no sleep I had to find her I had to tell her that I loved her I need to find her was all I could think of I really missed her. The next morning was a drag the old man granddaughter came to visit him. She was maybe the same age as I am she was pretty tall green eyes and blond hair. No importance in her until the old nice man called into his office he sat me down than began to talk “I know who you are” I felt my heart sink deeper than ever, but I noticed that he wasn’t talking to me he was on the phone but looking straight at me. “ill call you back Dave” he hung up his phone looked at me “well, son I have brought you to my home. I need you to tell me who are you” I knew the true had to been known but I had to leave the place where I was I knew it “I am a runaway from jail and I will leave your home as soon as you want me too’’. He raised his eyebrow “you’re the most truthful young man I’ve meet “I already knew who you were I knew since the day I saw you sleeping in the streets”. I was startled by his response “you knew”? “of course but im going to help you escape I will give you money, but you have to promise find her” “I promised, and ran through the door I dint stop or looked back until I was 100 feet I looked back and saw the light of police cars he knew my time had come. My heart rate exceeded I looked in the bag the old man had gave me it was around 50 thousand dollars in cash I was shocked that I had this money in my hand, but I heisted a moment than I ran to a banded place somewhere I wouldn’t be found. I stayed the night there so I wouldn’t take any chance to be caught. I couldn’t sleep but the night arose and my eyes started to get heavy than heavier I felt my mind drifted away slowly………………………………............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Chapter three Suzie
“ two more days until im married” I scream to the world truly I wasn’t sure to get married, but he instead he could wait for that maybe love could come he was so nice, but my heart belonged to him the guy that I banned myself to say his name. I needed some air I needed to get out of this apartment I walked to the near café it was really early I wasn’t the only person there. I sat in the far corner of the person there I couldn’t see the persons face I ordered a coffee, and left when I got it I wasn’t really feeling well as soon as I opened the door the person got up. I paid no attention to him but I could clearly see he was a guy than I saw the knife it happened so fast all I could remember was the lady screaming for help. I awoke in a dark place I saw only his back he didn’t want to show his face “let me go I promise I wont tell anybody” started to cry “don’t waste your time” he said I started to cry than he came closer I stopped crying my heart stopped than it started to beat faster. “please don’t cry I hate when you cry” he said almost in tears “I been looking for you until I went to that café I wouldn’t have image that I would find you there” “don’t get close to me killer you killed my father and you tried to kill me” I yelled “no you have it all wrong Suzie I love you and I wont let you leave without telling you the true”. He said the tears fell from his eyes, but not once did he sound like he was crying “I don’t want to hear it you almost killed me and im not going to let you finish the job”. “Do you think I can hurt you I love you I would never hurt you don’t you remember what happen that night”? He got a little closer I felt his breath I wanted to kiss him but I turned my head the other way so I wouldn’t fall “I don’t remember I don’t, is that what you wanted to hear”? He smiled at my response “that’s exactly what I thought, because I know you still love me I know don’t try to deny it”. I couldn’t give up “I don’t love you” I said as firm as I could. He came closer than he was right in front of me my lips were right in front of his lips than his lips was on mine his lips sp cold and yet so soft I wanted to be there forever with him. Than I remembered what happen the night of the night of the accident he was protecting me. He backed away as he saw the ring in my finger “you’re getting married”? the response didn’t shoot out the question took me by surprise and now that I knew the true it pained me to answer the simple question “yes but” he cut me off and started to untie me “is so simple to forget about and you’re here getting married after I begged that maybe I didn’t mark your life and now I see I didn’t mean any thing to you”. I was trying to tell him what I felt but my throat had a bump I couldn’t talk I just start sobbing and before the words could come out he was already gone…….
Chapter 4th ALEXANDER
“Im such a fool how could I think she loved me if all I did was hurt her”. I screamed to myself she going to get married and I don’t have nothing to do in the free world why hide I don’t have any thing to live for I cant go on im going to turn myself in. I walked toward the office where police the officers were shoot a look at me and didn’t hesitate they ran to me took me down my face was on the floor I didn’t car anymore words weren’t good enough to explain what I felt. They told me the same thing they told me the last time they came for me. They put me in the back of the police car I felt the situation wash over me I escaped jail for a girl that’s getting married god forbid that day. The love I feel is gone no where, but angry feeling toward the guy that will have her in his arms that her first time would be with him. I shook the idea off my mind I loved her but envy him how could I not hate him if every single cell screams for her, but I cant let her take me over it obvious that she didn’t love me how could she doubt me. We arrive to ,my original home yes, my original home the one that I spent years in hope in one day I would get out and married the love of my life I guess I don’t live in a fairy tale. The guy looked at me as if he wanted to eat me he took me to the cell somehow I was better off here I didn’t have to hear the people getting married and so far on. Reporters trying to get my statement but I really didn’t want to talk to anybody they took my photo until I was in my jail cell again. “ your jury is in two days” the guard yelled so the reporters would hear great I would be in high facilely prison. I lied down in the bed they provided with that really warm blanket I they didn’t take long before I had my lunch they didn’t ask for or why I turn myself in but I guess they really didn’t care. I closed my eyes to my relive I could breath but I cant live anymore………………
Chapter five SUSIZE
I sat there until I was sure none of this was a dream I got still crying and still speechless my heart accelerated at the way he kissed me he was the only one that could have my heart jumping. I ran outside and called out for him but he didn’t come to me I needed him. How stupid could I be I don’t understand how I could just let him leave I knew in the bottom of my heart that he never would have hurt me. I didn’t trust him I didn’t tell him I loved him and he loves me if things were so freaking simple like that his lips against mine burn my heart. I needed to find him I have to explain myself he only saw the ring and ran he didn’t let me explain that I love him no one can take his place how could I go on like this now that I knew the true I felt like a monster I couldn’t go on like this. I ran until I found my apartment I looked for my keys I opened the door and ran to my room the t.v was on I instenly turned around when I heard alex name hoping it was someone else but it was him the pain grew. I couldn’t breath anymore my eyes were filled with tears I couldn’t believe his tears it was like acid had been in my inside I couldn’t fight anymore I had to days to get him and I ran to Christopher’s house to my surprise he had a another girl in his bed so I had to do was act like I was crying cause of that and throw the ring in his face he tried to explain but I spited in his face and told him to kiss my butt. I ran to the station I had to end this now I had to be In his arms once more at least for a second if I knew he want to do anything with me, but I had to try. I waited the two days impatiently that I couldn’t breath with every second that went by I would soon see his face I couldn’t let no one get from going to him. I was getting ready to go to the court and someone started to knock at the door I didn’t check who was it I should have. “what do you want” I said as rude as it could come out “im sorry but you know I love you and what happen back there was nothing she was part my bachelor party and I got carried away”. “that’s the best you can do Christopher I thought you would have said oh ya she was on me” . I got my purse and started to leave he closed the door than I knew I had to do something more I got the broom stick and warned him “I will shove this somewhere you don’t want it if you don’t move, I will count to two if you don’t move I will give you hell” I said almost laughing well because I would love to have took a picture of his face. He opened the door and I ran to my car when could find I went back where Christopher was sitting in the sofa I got close reach to his pocket took his keys and ran I will return it. I will first drive it down a cliff and Make it an accident I got to the court house I ran to the double doors they were already sentencing him to 19 years in jail I could hardly breath yes it was time for everyone to know the true “ I remember what happen that night judge If you give me a second please let me explain”’ the eyes got wider as they understood who I was everybody looked at me but Alexander’s eyes never meet mine. “ we were playing around and my dad was trying to a abuse me again and Alexander shoot him because he didn’t let me go I beg you not to put him in jail for saving , he would never harm me” the tears flowed out I couldn’t hold them back. The jury was taking there sweet time to say there verdict “we the jury have come to a verdict we find the defendant not guilty I felt that relive wash over me I looked at Alexander but he didn’t even smile I thought this was what he wanted. They let him go but he had to go back to get what he had there in the jail he was in. I awaited for him to say something to me but he didn’t even look at me I knew what that meant. I ran back to my apartment and I knew that if I left to my aunts house I would see him so I had to stay here I saw how they were talking about him that he has been released because of what I had said. I turn on my ipod and give me a sign by Breaking Benjamin I put all volume and fell asleep I heard the window open and my heart raced I thought I had got rid of Christopher he never learns I will have to shoot him if he don’t leave me alone. Christopher I will shoot you don’t think because I was going to get married with you I wont pull the trigger just try me ” I yelled so he would know, I got the stick broom and turn the light on I swung but he got it before I could hit him I dropped it to the discoverment of who it really was “Alexander” I whisper but he got closer, and my lips found his than we were on the bed the night was young and it was all ours. I let myself be taken by his lips something I would have never done with anyone but him. I awoke when door bell rang I saw Alexander sleeping next to me I couldn’t dream of the most perfect moment. I opened the door and there he was pointing a gun in my face ‘so this was why you didn’t want to be with me huh you prefer him he tried to kill you wake up” he said as he got in and closed the door behind him. “ I love him okay and if you don’t but that down I will kill you” I said as fierce as I could “Suzie you don’t understand I waited for him to come out of your apartment than I saw the lights go on than off I knew what was happing than I waited for 6 hours in my car got my gun and came up here that’s how much I love you” “ you don’t love me your psycho go before I call the cops’ I said in disbelieve. He push me till I fell down and I felt my head spin than I saw Alexander my plea was barely a whisper “please don’t hurt him kill me I spited in your face kill me you psycho” he turned around and as he was about to shoot me Alexander tried to take the gun the were struggling I heard the gun shot and saw Alexander fall he was in pain and at the same moment I felt my hands and my feet I reached for my cell phone and called 911 Christopher ran and I ran to Alexander side “hold on please don’t leave me please don’t leave me I love you I cant live without you please” he smiled “don’t worry Suzie I will never again leave your side you’re the air I breath and without I would die but I have you and I can go against the world if I have to”. I looked at wound it was only in the arm he didn’t hurt him any where else I was in pain when he said that he would have to go against the world he was only in shorts. I got distracted with his muscular body but than the ambulance barged in they took him I couldn’t go in with him but I took the keys of Christopher and started the car but it kept turning off I ran back to get my car key and ran for 15 minutes to the café to get my car. I arrived ten minutes late the police was already there asking him questions and as soon as they saw me they asked for my testimony I had to tell him it was Christopher he could have hurt Alexander the police left to find him I ran to Alexander’s side he smiled at me and I knew that everything was going to be okay. The past was in the past all I had to do was see the future he needed me here and I needed him more than ever I didn’t understand the feeling I get every time I looked at him he smile he light brown eyes he muscular body we were so different but yet so alike. I don’t see myself with out him I walked to the waiting room so the doctors could stitch his arm I took a trip back to beloved past I remember when I first meet him I Hated his guts he thought he was the cutie of the world I like every girl fell for his eyes, but I didn’t let no one know than I talked to him and his smile took my breath away his eyes would burn into mine and we kissed that night he took me to the movies for a double date with his girlfriend and my boyfriend but things changed that night we became more than friends and the first I love you was from him.” Suzie you can go in his ready” the doctor pointed to the room and I ran to it he smiled and he was ready to leave he grabbed me and give me a kiss the one that my heart race to. We started to walk where we went I didn’t care just that I was his and he was mine and I knew he loved me.
