We run until our lungs hurt, and then keep running. Eventually we make it almost all the way out of city limits.(4 miles from where they were.) We stop in an alley and catch out breath. My sides hurt like hell. I really need that antidote.
"Jesus...Christ. What...the hell...happened...guys?" Mason asks in between pants. I close my eyes for a minute. A recap on everything I just learned: Benny was stolen, and raped by John. John wanted Benny for himself, but Benny wanted me, which led to the situation in the first place. I killed my father and John was killed by Mason. I am a murderer. Mason is a murderer. My father is a murderer. Must be genetic! Shut up please I'm trying to think. Oh, sorry. You were saying. Benny is...he's ALIVE! He's with me right now. No shit Sherlock. Fuck you, Watson. Just continue with your brilliant thinking.
"Benny! I missed you so much!" I screamed and hugged him. He wrapped his arms around my neck and started sobbing.
"Shhh. It's okay, baby. It's okay. I'm here." I say. Suddenly he's ripped off of me.
"NO! MICHAEL!" He screams and tries to grab my arms. It took me a second to realize that it was Mason. He pins Benny against the wall, choking him. Benny sputters and claws at his hands.
"The fuck are you doing!?" I yell at him. He turns his head and looks at me. His eyebrows are furrowed.
"This man tore you apart! The real question is what are you doing?" he spits and I grab Mason's arms and tear them off of Benny's neck.
"Why? He made you miserable for so long! I don't get it!" I just can't control it anymore.
"I love him!" I yell and his face relaxes.
"Y-you what?" He stutters and I sigh. Benny grabs my hand.
"I. Love. Him." I say sharply, gritting my teeth to keep myself from saying something I'll regret later. Benny grabs my hand our fingers interlacing. Mason stares at our hands for a second.
"Your...gay?" He says and I nod sarcastically.
"Yes. Now, we need to get going before we get caught. The police will be doing a sweep of the city soon." I say and Mason nods. I start to walk and Benny grabs my arm.
"Wait a second. The antidote. We needs to give it to you. You'll die before we get out of the city if you don't he says.
"How am I going to get your blood?" I ask and he cuts his palm with a rock. I put my finger in the pooling blood and lick it off.Gross. And bitter. I hate my life. Why did I have to do this? Why? I feel immediate relief to the pain. It's the only thing I could come up with. I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you next chapter. You promise? I promise. We continue to run after we cover up Benny's cut. We pass the city's limits and walk down the highway.
"We need a car." Mason says.
"We can always just steal one." Benny says and Mason shakes his head.
"That'll just add onto our crimes." He says still pissed at him. I shake my head.
"That's actually a good idea. It'll make it harder for them to find us. They'll expect us to be on foot so this is pretty good. There's a gas station up ahead. Just stay outta sight and we'll be good." I say and Mason sighs. fine. He walks mumbling under his breath. I can't really understand anything but from what I can tell it's nothing good.
"There it is. The gas station. Now we just have to find a car." I say.
"We can circle around back and maybe find a car."Benny says again and Mason groans,
"What if there isn't a car? Then it'll just be a waste of time." Benny rolls his eyes.
"What if there is a car? Then we're just losing an easy opportunity. So shut up and follow me." Benny says and sneaks to the back of the station. A Mercedes-Benz was back there.
"Why in the hell would you leave a car here?" I say and Benny's eyes widen.
"It's because there's someone in it. Look at the bottom of the car. See how it's moving just the slightest bit." He's right. The car just moves the tiniest little bit as who ever in the car moves. Mason pulls out his gun and opens the door.
"Out. Now." He growls and pulls a man out of the car. He lands on his knees.
"What the hell bro! What's your problem?" A masculine voice says.
"Mr. Time?"
A/N So... Hehe. This just ended up being awkward. There's going to be a chapter after this that's all three boys talking to the author(Me). Headsup: My true name will be revealed next chapter. BOOM!!
Peace out,
