~Hope's POV~

Still to shocked by what I had just witnessed, I stared blankly at the stove in front of me. I couldnt see anyone but Harry from where I was hiding, Suddenly, a loud, angry yell came from just a few feet behind Harry. 

"Justin!! WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ACCOMPLISHING BY KILLING OFF ALL OF OUR FRIENDS?? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FUCKING MIND?!?"  I heard Sophie yell. I quickly jumped up, causing Harry to panic and stand up along with me. Justin's gun suddenly aimed towards us, his face with zero emotion. As he looked at his sister he just smirked, causing her to tremble slightly.

"Well, Well, Well... If it isn't Miss. Perfect, and her clan of pathetic followers!!!" He chuckled, pointing to all three of us. Zayn and Niall shifted next to me, But I carefully motioned for them to stay put.

My whole body started to shake as I watched Harry slowly walk towards Justin.

"C'mon, Mate, Why are you doing this? There are so many innocent people in this place whom have been wounded or killed because you have some PMS issue, or something."  He calmly snapped.

I turned my head to him, my mouth hanging open in surprise. 

Ok, this kid has a fucking gun. Yet, Harry thinks its cute to toy with him while putting his own life at risk?

"Harry!!! STOP!!" I screamed. "You are going to get yourself hurt!!!" Harry turned to me with a sympathetic look in his eyes.

At this point, I couldn't hold back my tears any longer. I thought this day would be like any normal day at school. I guess I was wrong.

Suddenly, we could all hear the sirens off in the distance. The loud sounds getting closer by the second. 

We turned to eachother and back to Justin. I could see his eyes slightly widen with fear, but humor soon took its place.

He glared evily at Harry, as he slowly turned the gun in my direction. I mentally flinched, but physically.... I couldnt move.

"Don't do it, Justin." Harry said just loud enough for us all to hear. I could see the tears forming in the corners of his bright green eyes, their color darkening slightly.

I heard a soft chuckle come for Justin, and i forced myself to look in his direction. His eyes were already on me. I trembled as I felt the tears falling freely down my cheeks. 

Was this it?

Was I about to die infront of the several people I care about?

'Please, God.... Help me!!!' I mentally prayed.

I jumped slightly at the sound of the gun being cocked.

Here I was. In my last year of high school, in the cafe with the people I care about, with a gun pointed in my face.

I hear Justin's footsteps grow closer to me, as I freeze involuntarily. 

"Look at me, you stupid bitch" Justin growled. His breath fanned my face, as i slowly opened my eyes. More tears slipping out of them as i do.

He smiled at me. I cringed at the thoughts that may be running through that demented mind of his.

I watched as he raised his gun, setting it between my eyes. I could hear Sophie gasp at him.

"Justin!!! Please, don't do this!!! She is my best friend!!" She wailed. I let the tears slide down my cheeks as I looked to her and then to Harry. 

Harry looked as though he was going to vomit. His face was pale and his hands were shaking.

I soon felt a sharp pain shoot through my abdomen. Looking down slowly, I see my yellow blouse starting to turn a crimson color.

He had stabbed me.

The knife was now in his once free hand, and he was laughing. 

I slowly fell to my knees, starting to feel light headed from loss of blood. As I looked to Harry, his face was now red, his eyes almost black.

He was furious but there was nothing he could do.

Justin slowly lifted his gun to my forehead again, me coughing lightly as small amounts of blood slid out of my mouth.

Justin looked at me, and smiled as if I were a new toy he had gotten for his birthday. "Say goodbye to you're friend, you three." he sang.

I heard screams and the faint sound of feet padding across the tiles.

It was at that point that I blacked out.
