The Angel Of Death

The Angel Of Death-Chapter Four

I look down at the person and go to the edge of the roof. I look down once more to make sure the roof isn't too high. I decide it's not too high then I fling myself off the roof and land in a crouching position you would see in an action movie.

I walk up to the person and look at them, I can't see the person's face so I reach into my pocket and pull out my inhaler first and keep that in my hand and reach in again and finally get my lighter out. I click it on and I see its Jesse. I let out a sigh and turn around to walk away. He grabs onto my shoulder and doesn't let go.

"What do you want?" I ask putting the lighter away

"We need to talk. Somewhere light so I can see you" he said

"Fine" I said

We go to the side of my house and climb up the white ladder my mom uses to plant vinery plants on, we climb up onto the roof and sit next to each other. I can see him now perfectly, thanks to the full moon over head. He turns to face me and I can tell this is going to be rough for me.

"Angel what was that today?" he asked

"You mean me punching you slutty girlfriend? Exactly what it looked like, me punching your slutty girlfriend." I said

"Why did you do it? You don't even know her" he said

"Ok first off, don't talk to me like my parents do. Second, you never told me you were dating the school hoe bag. Third off, she was sucking your face into her mouth and it pissed me off" I said

"I was going to tell you and I'm talking to you like your parents but I can if you want me too." He said.

I could feel my chest getting tight and I knew I was about to cry. I looked down so my hair was covering my face.

"Why don't you want me to date her?" he asked

"Because" I said quietly

"Because why?"

"Because I know she will use you!!! I've seen it done by her before!!!! I may not be friends with her or her friends but I know what she does. It's written all over the bathroom stales. I've heard girls talking about it. And it's not just gossip, its facts. She uses guys that care for her. It's the way she is. And if she uses you, I'm going to kick her ass and I don't care what happens after that!!!!" I said

My chest got so tight I let out a yelp. I grabbed my inhaler and took a puff, then another. It didn't help and I threw it off the roof in frustration. The tears I had been holding back spilled over and down my face. I just knew my eyeliner was running down my face and I didn't care. My chest hurt so badly and I felt betrayed for no reason. I didn't like Jesse in that way...did I? No I didn't. He's my best friend and that's it but I don't want him to get hurt.

"Angel are you ok?" he asked

"My chest hurts" I said crying

"Lay on your back" he said

I tried to lay back but a shot of pain ran up my spine and I fell to my side with a scream of pain. I couldn't breathe. I didn't know what was going on and I was scared.

"Jesse...I can't...breathe" I gasped

"Come here" he ordered

I crawled into his lap and he cradled me in his arms.

"Do you want me to break up with Amber?" he asked

"Do you like her?" I asked with a shot of pain afterwards

"That doesn't matter" he said

"Yes it does, now do you like her?" I asked again with the pain along with it

"Yes I do." He said

"Then I'll try to tolerate her, but once I don't like what she does, or who she is, I will stop being nice to her" I said gasping

"That's all I ask. Now do you want me to stay here to make sure you don't die?" he asked trying to lighten the mood

"Please don't go" I begged

"I'm right here. Now relax please my little Angel" he said

My chest was feeling better but I couldn't breathe still and I didn't know why. After awhile of being on the roof, I started to get cold as did Jesse. So we went into my room and layed down on my bed. And soon I was asleep and barley breathing.
