Lucy's pov

My phone began to buzz and I looked to see the caller ID, it was Mailey.

"Lucy something's wrong....." Mailey began to say

"Well what is it?" I wondered, "Mailey you still there?" I got no answer and I was freaking out.

What is she talking about?

And where the hell is she?

"Everything alright?" Cameron wondered

"No, I think Mailey is in trouble." My voice was shakey and Cameron noticed. A worried look washed over his face.

"We'll find her." He stated as he grabbed the car keys and we ran out of my apartment.

We went almost everywhere around town and she was no where to be found. As I was about to give up I got a mysterious text that read

If you want to find her go to the car garage on main.

-unknown

"Cameron go to the car garage on Main Street." I demanded. He drove there with no question and when I saw Mailey I immediately jumped out of the car to go hug her but a gun was put to my head.

"Don't move." The man said. I didn't move I stood there in fear staring at Mailey who had tears running down her face, she too was scared.

The man pushed me and Cameron next to Mailey then took the guns away from our heads. Out of no where Jake came out with a grimace.

"Well I see you made it." He said creepily

"Jake what's going on?" I asked

"Well isn't it obvious? No? Ok well you have a decision, you can marry me and you're friends will be alright or you can leave me for that piece of trash next to you and everyone dies." He replied with a smirk across his face.

"Jake why are you doing this?" I wondered as tear rimmed my eyes.

"Because I love you, baby." He replied as he took a hand and held my face. I pushed him away angrily.

"Why don't you just calm down and let us go." I begged

"Well you see, that's not as fun." He laughed

"Please Jake, just let us go." I said

"Nope." He shook his head.

"I'll marry you just let them go." I pleaded.

"Fine." He said, rolled his eyes then fired a gun. I looked down I my stomach and all around me, no blood. I turned and saw Cameron holding his stomach. He turned to look at me with fear in his eyes. He let go of his stomach and blood was rushing out of him.

He fell to the ground and I rushed over to help him.

"Cameron!" I yelled as I knelt next to him stroking his hair. "You'll be ok, stay with me." I begged as tears rushed out of my eyes

"I love you." He stated "Forever and always." Then his eyes shut and he turned a pale shade.

"No!" I screamed then I dialed 911

"911 what's your emergency?" They answered

"I have a gun shot wound victim in the car garage on main, please hurry!" I said then suddenly another gun shot was fired and I felt like my insides all fell at once. I looked down at my stomach as blood began to spill out then everything went dark.

The last thing I heard was Mailey screaming and a siren.
