Emergence

Chapter 27

" He tried to kill Edmund?" Vince repeats. I shake my head, holding the hot cup as the other Edmund looks back at Vince.

" He hit him with a bat, and then held a gun up to him?" Edmund repeats. I shake my head, looking out the window.

" Yes. He then kicked him in the ribs, grabbed him by the neck and threw him telling him that I never loved him. H-He t-t-then-" I feel my tears start to pool as I set down the hot chocolate, shoving my hands in my face.

" He pulled out and loaded a gun pointing it at Edmund's forehead!" I shout through tears. My whole body starts to relive it as I shake my head. " H-He was so scared, and Vince just kicked him again and I ran out in front of the gun." I explain.

" Freya! Oh my heavens! You're lucky you're still alive!" Edmund shouts. I stare at him as Vince shakes his head.

" What on Earth were you thinking!?" He adds. I take a sip of my hot chocolate in the cup and shake my head.

" Vince missed me by just a few inches, he was really upset I ran in front of the gun and I promised to date him if he left me and Edmund alone for a day and promised to leave Edmund alone for good." I explain. They both cover their mouths simultaneously as I shake my head.

" Y-Y-You two broke up?" Edmund questions. I look over at him, shaking my head and exhaling.

" You're wearing a ring, please don't tell me-" I cut Vince off and shake my head.

" Vince came back and proposed to me, I couldn't say no but Edmund was in the closet. Vince was grabbing everything and Edmund was so crushed. He kept yelling at me, asking how this was going to work if I married him." I whisper.

" Freya this is heartbreaking." Vince says grabbing his chest. I frown, shaking my head as I take in a quick breath.

" While Vince and I were planning the wedding he passed over through the closet. This ring reminds me off him to, and it pisses me off that Vince did this to me. Vince then wanted to get lovey so I had to fource myself. So I grabbed his collar and he threw off the bed, and tried to hit me." I explain. Edmund starts to tense up and looks back at Vince.

" He hits you?" Edmund growls. I shake my head and exhale.

" I hit the bed frame and hurt myself, I begged him that I wasn't trying to hit him. I was just getting rough and then he told me that it was a hooker's job to do that." I take in a sharp breath.

" He told me that I needed to be sweet, kind, hesitant. ' Like a middle schooler' was he exact words. Then I told him I was a grown woman and that I was not going to act like it. " I whisper. Vince stares at me, and looks back at Edmund.

" That's really odd," Vince says, starting to pinken in his cheeks. Edmund starts to laugh, shaking his head and smiling brightly.

" I hear you there! Man if I was him, I'd be thanking the lord for her. Grabbing me by the collar drives me nuts." Edmund stays chuckling. I smile at them as Vince shakes his head.

" We really are the opposite." He says shrugging his shoulders. I start to laugh, running my fingers through my wet hair and shaking my head.

" Anyway. He claimed that Edmund screwed me up, he said it wasn't proper and literally demanded me to be shy, quiet and hesitant. Then I know I shouldn't have, but I started an argument with him, telling him he will not shame me for what Edmund and I do." I explain.

" Ooo, talking about your ex doesn't sound like a good idea Freya." Edmund says, biting his lip. I shrug and exhale.

" He got really mad, and told me not to call Edmund my boyfriend and that I was marrying him. So I told him I will call Edmund the man I love because I will never love him and he hit me, and demanded me to cuddle him. After that, I went into the closet to find Edmund gone." I explain.
