We Met Because Of Death

The Start of an Ending

( Haylee's part)

I dance with Tyler away from the crowd. Austin really didn't seem to like me dancing with Tyler. Honestly I didn't want to dance with him either but only because I was worried about leaving Austin alone.
" Something on you're mind?"
I look at Tyler who smirks at me I turn red realizing I've been caught.
" Just thinking about Austin."
" Ah well he'll be fine I wouldn't be so worried about him anyways."
I frown confused at what he meant by that. Tyler smiles at me and I sigh pushing the thought away he was only trying to calm me down.
" You look great by the way."
" Thanks I tried today was a special day anyways."
" It's ony a festival a thing we have every year."
" Well this year is different."
" How so?"
He smiles at me but doesn't say a word. We dance for a few more minutes until I notice we are now close to the doors.
" Hm we must have not realized we were moving towards the door."
" I guess not but it is hot in here wanna take a step outside?"
I look back at the bar but the crowd blocks my veiw from it. I bite my lip and take a step back.
" I don't know I should probably be getting back to Austin."
" He'll be fine it'll only be for a moment anyways. Besides I wanna show you my new car."
I hesitate looking back once again. Why do I feel like something bad is gonna happen? Austin catches my eye as the crowd breaks up. He stands at the bar accompanied by Ryan and Logan. I watch as he laughs and I smile. I'm just overreacting.
" Alright sure it is kinda hot in here anyways."
" Great."

We walk through the parking lot the place packed, not a single parking space empty. The night is chilly, I cross my arms tightly around me.
" A beautiful night isn't it ?"
I look at Tyler who slowly walks behind me his eyes burning in to me I nod and chuckle nervously. Was he acting strange? Maybe he had too much to drink. I look at him one more time his eyes are glazed over and his smile gives me no comfort. I take a deep breath and walk a few steps quicker. He's just drunk why am I acting like this? It's normal to see him drunk ever festival. I slow my pace down again and smile at him.
" So where's your new car?"
He points in front of me and I look to see a shiny blue classic mustang. I gasp impressed by it.
" Tyler it looks amazing!"
" Thank you!"
" How did you even get this?"
" Oh no that's not it."
I turn and look at him confused.
" Then which one is it?"
" That one."
I look and see the black jeep that he always drove. It didn't look different?
" Tyler this is the same car? I thought you said you got a new one?"
I turn and see Tyler standing close to me. The feeling comes back to me again. The look he gives me sends a chill down my spine. Fear rises in my chest.I take a step back and notice something in his hands. I look at it more closely It's a gun. My eyes widden and my heart stops.
"What are you doing Tyler?"
" What I should have done a long time ago."
I gasp and pull away from him. I turn to run but Tyler grabs me and puts his hand over my mouth. I scream but it's only a muffled shout.
" Haylee? Haylee!"
Max help me please Help!
Max shouts in my head I try to scream one last time but all of a sudden I feel a blasting pain. I fall to my knees everything starts to go black the last thing I hear is Max's cries in my head.

( Austin's part)

I take another drink of my soda and look for Haylee. The song was over shouldn't she be back by now? I look but see no sign of her. I walk over towards the crowd and slid by people. I still don't see Haylee which makes the pit in my stomach grow deeper.
I turn and head to the restroom. I open the door glad to see no one else is in here. I stand at the sink.
Writing all over the walls that show under chipped away paint. I sigh and turn on the faucet. I let the warm water run through my hands. She's fine she's probably just dancing woth Tyler still or might have gotten caught up with another friend. I look at myself in the mirror one last time and then head out again. The music is now a fast song. I spot Taylor who dances with Zain and Simon. I smile and start to head over to them until I feel myself pulled back by a sudden burts of voices in my head.
" Austin, Haylee needs help! You have to hurry."
" He took her and he has a gun Austin you need to go now!"
What wow what do you mean she needs help?
" Tyler took her Austin you have to help her now!"
I feel my heart sink. Haylee was gone, he took her I shouldn't have let her go with him I knew it. Everything starts to spin my heart beats hard against my chest and I start to breath really hard. I run over to Taylor and my brothers. My heart aching. What if he hurts her I can't lose her I can't.
" Guys, Guys call 911!"
They look at me concerned and confused.
" What do you mean what's going on?"
" Haylee was taken hurry I think they're going to hurt her hurry!"
I run past them hearing their shouts behind me but I don't stop. I had to save her I can't lose her I can't let him hurt her. If anything happens to her it's gonna be all my fault. I push through the doors and run to the car my head spinning. I jump in and start it. I hear the passenger door open next to me. Simon sits next to me. I press on the pedal not really caring. All I needed was Haylee I had to help her. Please please be okay Haylee I can't lose you.
" Austin you have to hurry."
Im going as fast as I can!
" Head to the bridge I think that's where he's taking her."
The bridge ? Why the bridge what does he want with Haylee?
" Austin I think Tyler was the one who killed me and now he's going after Haylee."
Everything stops their voices are drowned out by my thoughts. My heart races, fear crushes me all I wanna do is scream. I need her I can't lose her. I'm not going to let him hurt her I'm not going to lose her.
