Torn

Another Awesome Chapter ((Suggestion was taken))

Chapter 17

I felt as if my life had collapsed around me, leaving piles of rubbles which I fought to put back together. BEN was the building, and Jeff was the rubble. I had to choose - a safe life with the one who cared, or a dangerous existence with the one who just wanted blood.

I curled my hands into fists as Jeff stared at me, his face concerned. I gritted my teeth and looked at the ground, hiding the fact that I was crying. I focused on my last piece of BEN, the coin I had dropped.

I quickly wiped my face and picked up the coin. It was colder than it had ever been, and I let out a soft sigh. I hugged the coin close to me, and I turned and left Jeff in the alley.

"BEN! BEN!" I screamed, over and over until my I couldn't any longer. I gulped in air, and then I screamed. I just let it all lose, and I screamed.

"Do that again," a soft voice said. I looked up and saw BEN. My eyes widened and I reached out for him. He stepped back and I felt wounded.

"Alright," I whispered, my throat raw. I opened my mouth and screamed as loud as I could. I stopped as soon as BEN hit the ground. I ran over to him and began to cry when I saw he wasn't moving, wasn't breathing, wasn't in love with me.

"That... What was that?" BEN croaked out, and I bit my lip. He pushed himself up and stared at me.

"I don't know..." I whispered truthfully, and he smiled slightly.

"I think you've found it," he said, and I leant forward and kissed him.
