| Mars POV |
Me and Chica have been walking around for about twenty minutes now , often spotting dead and alive animals , decaying human flesh that seemed to look like it could've been from either a murder or a suicide , and other torn up cars that somehow ended up accidentally or purposely . But what happened to me and Poppy was not a accident . It had to be on purpose . No actually it didn't " have to be . " It most definitely was on purpose . I just hope that wherever Poppy was , she was okay .
I can't believe that Titanic would do such a thing to us . But at the same time I can . He's Titanic. If he doesn't get what he wants when he wants it he'll find a way to get it , even if it hurts others , leave them dead , or leave himself dead . I can't believe he manipulated me time after time to stay with him . I was such a fool . What a jerk . Just then , I heard a loud bang . It hit against the tree . I looked at it . On the tree was a bullet drilled inside of it . Uh oh .
There was another gunshot against the tree and this time it nearly hit me in my elbow . I quickly turned around to see Titanic pointing a shot gun directly towards me with his finger on the trigger prepared to shoot his next bullet in one hand and Poppy ( being held from her neck ) in his other hand . For a few seconds , we just looked at each other in silence .
" WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THIS ? " I asked coughing up blood . " WHAT HAS POPPY EVER DONE TO YOU ? " He just looked at me , unresponsive , and still in the same position he was in .
" ANSWER ME YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH ! YOU HAVE A WORKING MOUTH WITH A WORKING TONGUE , AND YOU NEVER HESITATED TO USE IT AT ANYTIME NO MATTER THE SITUATION SO USE IT NOW ! " Blood was dripping from my mouth to my chin . I wiped it off as a drip of it fell upon my shirt . But you couldn't really tell where it fell since my shirt was already soaked with dried up blood . A few minutes later , Titanic put his gun in his back pocket . He turned around and walked the way he came , with Poppy on his shoulders .
" And where the hell might you think you're going ? " I yelled as I followed him . He didn't answer . He just continued to walk . I picked up a small stone and threw it at his back . He looked back at me and stopped . I looked at him blankly , pondering about what was going to happen next .
" Get lost , Mars Argo . " He finally said softly as he turned back around started walking again .
" But what are you going to do with Poppy ? " I asked , quickly catching up to him .
" That's none of your business . Didn't you want to runaway so bad ? Run away , Mars . Go ahead and run away . Run away . " He pulled out his gun again . " Now get lost before I blast the brains out of the back of your head . "
" You can't do that . " I told him . " And you wouldn't . "
" So I wouldn't ? "
" No , you wouldn't , Titanic . If you wanted to kill me you would've been done while you had the perfect opportunity to . " He rolled his eyes at me .
" If you'd do it , then do it now . " I closed my eyes and spread my arms and legs out . " Go ahead do it . Just please make it quick . "
" Whatever . " He said walking off . " This is stupid . "
I quickly opened up my eyes and continued to follow him .
" Ah ha , so you won't shoot me ! " I said smiling .
" Get lost as I said before . Please just go away . I don't want to be a burden to you anymore . I won't follow you anymore or try to stop you , you're free to run away . Just go . I don't want to ruin more of your life than what I've already ruined . "
" What about Poppy ? "
" Bye . " He said waving his hand . " Stop following me . "
" You just can't leave me here alone , I'll die out here on my own . How would I find my way out of these woods ? "
" You're a very smart girl . Figure it out . I know you will . You don't need me . Not that you ever did anyways . "
" We're running out of time , Titanic . "
" We ? What's this ' we ' you speak of ? I don't speak French . "
" Come on , don't be like this . "
Titanic turned around with anger in his eyes . " But can you really blame me for acting like this ? Can you really actually blame me for acting like a total jackass right now ? YOU were the one who didn't want me in their life anymore . I've always done all the chasing after you . Yeah , I fucked up a lot and I totally can blame you for hating me and breaking up with me . "
" I never officially broke up with you yet .. "
" Oh really , Mars ? Why else would you pack up all your shit , clean out my bank account , and plan to move to Canada with Poppy ? I saw everything Mars . I was up all those mornings you thought you were being slick and secretive about it . I'm not dumb and neither are you . Like I said before , I'm tired of chasing after you . I guess I l fear the fear of consequence you say you'll leave me . But I'm not anymore . I just have to accept it . " He then turned back around and started walking again .
For a minute I just stood there thinking about everything he just said . But I'm his ex girlfriend ( I guess this was him officially ending our relationship ) , he just can't leave me here . And he certainly cannot just sit up here and walk around with my friend's body like a weird school shooter .
" You're not going to fucking take Poppy's dead body then leave me ! "
" Jokes on you , Poppy isn't dead . Just unconscious . "
