Surviving.

Chapter Five: Meeting Everyone.

Hey guys. I just wanted to say that i changed some of the character's names. Enjoy xD

"-and be careful when you walk in. Come in slowly and don't make any sudden movements okay? Unless you want to get shot in the head." i continue as we make our way back to the farm.

"It sounds like you don't want Me to scare Them," he replies clearly amused.

"Yeah, keep thinking positive. Maybe you'll survive after all." i say rolling my eyes. He remains silent as the farm comes into view.

"Stay behind me," i say quietly. He just nods and follows behind me like a lost puppy.

I open the door and call for Alexander. He comes into our line of vision and instantly freezes in place.

I gesture towards Austen, "Alex, this is Austen. I found him in the woods and decided that he could come in handy one of these days."

"SO YOU BROUGHT A STRANGER INTO THE SAFEST PLACE WE'VE EVER BEEN AND THINK HE CAN BE TRUSTED?" he yells at the top of his lungs, and i notice Zack standing in the doorway with a swollen and purple eye.

"What happened to him?!" i yell back to Alexander as i point to Zack.

"N-nothing," Zack replies quickly.  A little TOO quickly.

"Zackary. Tell me right his minute or so help me, i will cut off all your fingers. And you know i'll do it," i reply menacingly. I take out my dagger and begins walking towards him, 'til i'm about an inch away from cutting off his middle finger.

"ALEXANDER PUNCHED ME IN THE FACE BECAUSE I SAID THAT I WAS IN LOVE WITH YOU," he yells at the top of his lungs when i slice a shallow cut into his middle finger slowly.

I pull away instantly and my eyes widen, "y-you.....what?!"

"I'm in love with you, Lainey. I always have been. I never stopped loving you," he says and i almost believe it until i think of the day my heart was shattered into a million pieces.

~FLASHBACK~

~I'm on my way to Zacks house wearing my favorite white sundress and my strappy wedges. I was practically glowing with happiness thinking about all the great times we've spent together; all the hugs, kisses, and touches. I knock softly on the white wooden door that leads into his mansion of a house. No one answers so i take out the silver key he had given me on these kind of occasions. I unlock the door and smile widely as i stride into the vast living space which contains a large flat-screen TV, a huge 12 seat sofa which is surrounded by many small tables and chairs. 

I notice that the downstairs area is empty, guessing that Zack's parents are at work, so he must be upstairs in his room. So i traipse upstairs and opens the door right at the top of them only to find my worst nightmare. Bella, my best and closest friend, on top of Zack, sucking on his neck while Zack tugs on her exposed bra. Tears begin streaming down my face as i gasp loudly. Two pairs of eyes turn my way and one pair widens.

"Lainey, how long have you been..-" but i cut him off and say, "long enough. How could you do this to me? I thought you loved me as much as i loved you."

I turn slowly to Bella as the tears continue to fall, "And YOU. I thought we would be best friends 'til the end. What the fuck happened to having no feelings for him? You're a whore."

I turn my back to the people i thought loved me and never looked back.

~END OF FLASHBACK~

"Lainey." "Lainey?!" "Lainey!!!" I hear the same voice repeat, harsher each time. Then i feel myself being shaken and finally opens my eyes.

"Lainey," it's Alexander, i realize, shaking me and saying my name. I look up at him and he sighs in relief.

"Thank God! What the heck happened, Lainey?!" he hugs my tightly, cutting off my air supply.

"N-need Air.....Alex." i say, out of breath.

"Oh.. oops sorry Lai."he says, releasing me from his death hug. I roll my eyes and smile weakly.

"So... what happened?" i ask raising my eyebrows.

"You think We know? All we know is that you passed out and face planted into the floor," Austen frustrated. I give the "-.-" face to him.

"Hurt them and you won't have 10 fingers anymore, Alex." i say to Alex, pointing to Austen and Zack.

"Love you too, Lai" he says laughing quietly.

"NIGHTTTTTTTT," Zack screams as i trudge to my room. Before i can even reply, i'm already passed out face first on my bed.
