Taken

Death Will Come(36)

Recap:

"I miss him and sometimes I wish he would have followed long enough to draw attention or get taken along with me or even remember the license plate. I just miss him so much he would have made the best out of this situation and still would have made me smile but I think I know why all of this happened now. Why I was taken, snatched away from my family leaving them in despair leaving my brother thinking this is all his fault. It was all so I could meet you, Becca I know this sounds stupid but I feel like you're my light at the end of the tunnel and that I'm yours. We can both get out of here and back to our families, we could even be together" Ethan's cheeks tinted slightly red when he says the last comment.

"I mean obviously if you're okay with it, I didn't mean to just say it li-" I cut him off with my lips he kisses back and I never want our lips to be apart but eventually we have to part for air.

"I would love to"

He smiles and leans in again and I gratefully accept, for once in this house I'm generally happy and all I have on my mind is Ethan. Maybe my life can be fixed, maybe I can move on from my past with Ethan, we can heal and re-start our lives together.

I wrap my arms around Ethan and rest my head on his chest. I close my eyes and slowly drift off to sleep listening to Ethan's heart beat. Not even caring what would happen if Shawn comes home or what he would do if he saw this.

Becca's POV

I wake up to a loud door slamming when I remember everything but when I go to wake Ethan up I see he's no longer in his bed, I rub my eyes before looking around the room trying to find Ethan. I see him in the corner of his room asleep in his bean bag chair. I smile, he knew that if Shawn saw us together he would freak and it would be a lot harder to come up with a lie about it if he was sleeping with me.

I then remember what I woke up to and know Shawn is home and by the slam I'm guessing he isn't in a good mood. I hear another door slam from down the hall and fear starts rising in me, how is Ethan not awake yet?

"Becca! Where the Hell are you?" I hear Shawn scream, he doesn't sound normal right now.

Ethan's bedroom door flings open and crashes against the wall, the light then turns on lighting everything in the room up. Ethan just wakes up now and when he does he has a look of fear plastered on his face.

"What the Hell were you two doing?" Shawn yells walking stumbling towards me I can now clearly see that he's drunk.

Ethan jumps up and stands between Shawn and I, I can tell that Ethan is still very tired and won't have much of a chance if Shawn gets violent.

"She was stressed about you leaving and was worried you were going to get hurt so I comforted her and told her you would be fine. She ended up falling asleep so I went over and slept in the beanbag chair because I didn't want to wake her up because she would have just worried more" Wow Ethan played it off very well.

"Oh... well I'm just going to take her back to my room and talk for a while"

"Shawn you're drunk and can barely walk you shouldn't be trying to talk to Becca about anything right now just go to bed and sober up you can talk to her in the morning" Ethan defends.

"Oh Oka-" Shawn stops mid sentence and slams his fist into Ethan's face. I scream and try to get to Ethan to help him.

I've learned before that drunk people feel barely any pain so I'm going to have to try to stop Shawn by getting him distracted.

"Shawn!" I scream. I yell at him multiple times trying to distract him but all I can do is stare in horror as I watch Ethan get punched and kicked repetitively, I don't even know if he's conscious anymore.

I do the only thing I can think to do anymore and literally jump on Shawn's back and wrap my arms around his neck trying to get his focus off of Ethan and onto me. To my surprise it works Shawn grabs for my hands trying to throw me off of him but I'm doing everything in my power to stay on.

He slams his back into the wall knocking the air out of me, he does this multiple times and I don't know how much longer I can hold on for. He grabs me again and rips me off him throwing me to the ground, he reaches down and grabs my hair forcing me to stand.

"This could have all worked out a different way and I wouldn't have to kill him but you leave me no choice! Why can't you just realize you're mine and you can't change that!" He yells at me jerking my hair a few times leaving my scalp burning. I think Shawn thinks Ethan is dead right now but I can still see his chest moving up and down slightly showing me he's alive.

As I'm staring at Ethan I hear a click and see something I never thought I would see even with Shawn, a silver gun fully loaded. I scream at him and try to kick it out of his hands but it's too late. Time seems to slow and I can almost see the bullet flying through the air and into Ethan, I see that I did managed to get the gun out of Shawn's hand but I wasn't quick enough.

I stare at Ethan's now still body and my heart breaks even more realizing that Ethan is actually gone and he's gone because of me. I think I passed out at this point, my world came crashing down and my brain didn't want to be awake to see even more chaos and destruction caused by Shawn.

A/N- Sorry this chapter is so short, it needed to end there but the next one is longer.
