Chapter 3; Regrets

Alex.

Alex.

Alex.

Alex.

Why does it make you cower whenever you hear his name?

"Y/N, turn around. Look at me"

Hearing his voice made you scared. Why are you scared at him?

"Y/N, please look at me."

If saying his name and and hearing his voice made you feel like this, what would happen if you look at him?

"Y/N, please..."

His voice was softer now. It made your heart soften. Why can't you look at him? Why won't you look at him? He didn't do anything bad to you...right?

"..."

You were scared because you fear he might betray you too. That he'll take your dad's bait. Then capture you, make you rot in jail. You sighed as you slowly turned to him, your face suddenly showed concern and worry. Tears were streaming down his face and he was looking down on the floor. He noticed you turned and lifted his gaze to you, meeting your soft E/C eyes as you met his jade green eyes.

You inhaled and let out a deep sigh. "What do you want?"

He looks like he was a little taken aback, but he smiled through tears. You could never forget that smile, that reassuring smile that would always tell you, "it's alright. I'll always be here for you."

"Y/N, please don't be afraid. It's still me." He said with open arms. You want to hug him so bad, but you just froze there, not sure if you should trust him anymore. He chuckled as he saw your tears stream down your face, it made you run and hug him as you buried your face into his uniform.

"There's my gal..." He said as he wrapped his arms around you. Suddenly, you felt like you and Alex were being watched. But you didn't care for now. After a minute or two, you let go of him as he did the same.

"Now," he started. "What are you doing here?"

You smiled and shrugged. "Just wanna get my things and stuffs."

Alex glared at you and flicked your forehead. "And you came here alone?!"

"Can you blame me if a ske--" before you could even finish, you felt a stinging pain in the right side of your abdomen. "Ah!" You said as you turned to your right. You swore you saw two familiar yellow pin pricks glare at you for a second.

"What? What happened?" Alex asked, making you turn to him. You smiled and shook your head.

"I mean, can you blame me if no one wants to help me if I'm wanted?"

Alex sighed and nodded. "Well, you can't find your things in your room anymore. I'm sure it's upstairs in the attic." You nodded and followed him through the hallways.

Weird. You thought. Where's the other guards? You realized Alex is already opening the door to the attic in the ceiling. Stairs appeared as the door opened. You walked upstairs and coughed a little because of the dust. You saw your clothes and things and sighed in relief, it was a good thing your parents didn't throw it away. You took your backpack and put all the things you need.

"Hurry up, Y/N." Alex whispered. You nodded and went back down to him. You quietly followed him downstairs and to the door.

Both of you froze.

An army of guards pointed their guns at you while your parents did the same in front of them.

"I should have never trusted you, Alex..." Your father snarled. It broke your heart to see your other most closest friends all aiming their guns to your heart.

You noticed Alex stood in front of you protectively. You sighed and smiled faintly as you walked in front of him.

"Fine...kill me. But before you do," You said. "Remember that no matter how it hurts for me to see...my family to kill me like this, I will forgive you." You said, the other guards looked like they were about to cry, the others started shaking and the others just stood there.

"Pathetic" You heard your mother said as she was about to pull the trigger. But then, someone shot her shoulder, making her scream in agony.

That's where the war started. Alex grabbed your wrist as some guards ran beside you. The other guards started shooting each other. Tears stung your eyes as you saw your closest friends that who you treat as family, dying and sacrificing just for you.

Then a weird feeling you have never felt rushed through you. You can't hear the screams, the footsteps and the gunshots anymore. You thought you haven't even said that word in your whole life.

Regret.

That word. You didn't think you would feel that.

You realized you stopped running. Tears streamed down your face as you started breathing heavily. You heard Alex crying your name but you just stood there. Why can't I just disappear...? You thought.

Then, you felt cold arms wrap your waist. You didn't bother looking who it was. All you saw was your parents straining in some blue strings.

You didn't care anymore. If i hadn't went back to the house noer of this would have happened...I'm just a burden to everyone. You thought. All you could feel right now was...

Regret.
