~Jess's POV~
"I just want us all to get along." The crazy boy cries out.
I take off my bandana.
"Here tie this around his leg." I calmly hand it to Matt.
Matt ties the now red bandana around Taylor's leg.
Why the hell did he shoot him!?
I mean Aaron's the one that had the phone. But he shouldn't be shooting anyone!
I rub Taylor's hand and lean on his shoulder.
"We're gonna be okay." I softly tell him.
He begins to cry. His tears gently fall into my hair. After the cancer, and the transplant. Honestly what did he do to deserve this!
"Are you seeing white dots Jess?" He whispers.
"N-no Taylor. Are you?" I choke.
He nods, tears still falling.
"We have to get these two out of here." Shawn stands up.
The gunner starts walking towards him.
Please don't shoot...
"I can't!" He cries.
Why can't he?
Honestly he just sounds sad.
"I didn't want to hurt anyone! Okay! I just want us all to get along!" He yells.
"You'll get along with the boys in jail, that's for sure." Mahogany hardly says.
God. There gonna get us killed!
I start seeing bright dots. This isn't good.
My arm starts going numb and I blink a few times. Of course.
Light headed.
"I can't see." I quietly say.
"What?" Aaron says.
"I can't see!" I begin sobbing.
Bright lights keep flashing. Taylor grasps my hand.
"Please let me get them out of here!" Matt yells.
The boy starts crying. What the hell! We're the ones about to die. Wtf is he crying for?
"Take them. JUST those too.!" he screams.
I feel Matt lift me up.
"Taylor." My weak voice announces.
"I need someone else to take him." Matt tells the dude.
I hear him grunt and walk towards me.
He pokes my arm.
I gasp, hardly having any air.
"Owe." I can hardly hear myself.
"Fine." He says, "the girl goes with you. And he goes with him."
I'm guessing Shawn or Aaron.
I feel motion but I still can't see anything.
"We're gonna get you and Taylor out of here Princess. You'll be okay" Matt whispers. I feel him kiss my head but not really.
We go through a few doors, and I hear Taylor moan. Good. He's alright.
One last door opens and I hear a bunch of people.
Another pair of arms takes me and lays me on what I guess is a stretcher.
I feel Matt by my side the hole time.
