As Rick pulled the trigger, I was suddenly pushed out of the way. I quickly look back and see that my dad took my place but wasn't shot because of the boy who stood in front of him and took the bullet himself.
James.
"NOOO"i scream as James falls to the ground, bleeding.
I turn to look at Rick and see him dumbfounded.
I stand up and charge at him. I hit him full force, my bruises burned in pain but I ignored it.
I tackled Rick to the ground and punched him in the face over and over again. I couldn't stop, I was too infuriated.
I could tell that he was already knocked out but I didn't care.
James better not die
Punch after punch
please don't die James I can't lose you
I was suddenly grabbed around the waist and pulled back. I was thrashing around in the person's arms for a minute until I became limp with exhaustion and started sobbing.
the man turned me around and held me in a comforting hug.
pull yourself together, you have to see James
I pulled back and saw that the person holding me was my dad.
I walked around him and over to James' body which was covered in blood.
I dropped down beside him and looked at Ethan. He was on James other side and was sobbing as well.
I took James hand and looked up to see him looking at me. He squeezed my hand lightly.
" I'm sorry" I whisper, silent tears running down my cheeks.
He just shook his head," can't you see how loved you are now?" he crooked.
"WHY?! why would you do this it should be me on the floor dying not you!" I sob.
He chuckled but starts coughing up blood. "shhhh it'll be fine, your going to be okay" even I could hear the desperation in my voice.
He shook his head again " I did it because i-" he cuts off with another coughing fit. When he stops he just looks at me then his eyes start to close.
"NO! keep your eyes open! you can't die, you can't leave me!"
I start sobbing and clutching his hand desperately, praying to god that he will live.
Then the door bursts open again. In come the paramedics and the police.
