Hard To Love (Professor / Student)

Hand

***This is extremely short. I will update again soon!***

I put my hands up "Logan, wait."

"Why?"
"You loved me once, right?"

He takes a second to think "I gave you a great life." He says and I shake my head

"Than please don't do this."
"I have to. You need to learn a lesson" He says before placing the gun to the side of my head. "You need to be taught a lesson he mutters over and over again. 

Before either one of us knows what is going on, the door flies open and the room is filled with police. Within seconds, they all have guns pointed towards Logan.

"Drop the gun, Logan" An officer says as he puts his gun down to show Logan that he just wants to talk. "We don't want to hurt you."

"She deserves this!" He yells and shakes the gun "She deserves to die!"

"Logan! Nobody deserves to die" The officer yells "Now, put the gun down and we can talk about it."

"No! It has to be now" He says and looks at me, smiling "You deserved everything that happened to you." He mutters and pushes the gun harder into my temple.

I can feel the tears dripping down my cheeks onto the floor beneath me. "Please don't do this" I whisper

"Don't cry. You won't feel a thing" He says, and I close my eyes. I hear a gunshot, but it didn't come from Logan's gun. I open my eyes to see Logan's body, limp on the floor in front of me. An officer runs to him and another runs to me.

"Miss Montgomery? Miss Montgomery, are you okay?" He keeps asking, searching my body for any sign of impact. I just stare down at the lifeless body of a guy a used to love. Of a guy I have so much history with. My legs give out from under me and I fall into the arms of the Police Officer. He wraps his arms around me and sits down on the floor with me. His arms stay tight around me as he shields my face from the sight of Logan. "You're okay. You're okay" He keeps muttering and I cry into his chest.

Mark POV

"I will not hesitate to kill that son of a bitch"
"You will wait until we get there, Mark" Jared orders and I hang up the phone and speed to the address. 15 minutes later and the place is already swarmed with Police by the time I get there. I run past the yellow tape, ignoring everyone who is trying to stop me. And I run down the basement stairs.

"Sir! You can't go in there!" Someone says, trying to push me back. I manage to squeeze past and cross the threshold into the basement. The sight in front of me is nothing short of a horror film. Logan's lifeless body catches my eye first, as a pool of blood has formed around him. Police have just begun to cover his body with a sheet. My eyes scan the rest of the room and on the floor in the opposite corner is Jared. He is sitting on the floor with the love of my life.

"Vanessa!" I yell and run over. Jared stands, and I take his place. My arms fitting perfectly around her body. She looks up at me and I try to wipe away the blood from her bruising face. She winces a bit and I pull back.

"Vanessa." I say, at a loss for words

"Is it over?" She asks, shaking and I nod

"Yes. It is all over."

"Miss Montgomery? The Paramedics would like to check you out and take you to the hospital" Jared says and she nods. I watch her struggle to get up. What did these monsters do to my baby? I scoop her up and carry her up the stairs to the ambulance. The paramedics quickly check her out before we head to the hospital.

The entire drive there, Vanessa just lies on the stretcher, staring at the ceiling, not uttering a single word. I look at one of the Paramedics and she smiles slightly.

"She just in a little bit of shock. She will open up about it when she feels comfortable"

I nod and sit in silence. I reach out to hold her hand but she pulls it away and turns her head the other way. Ouch. I know she is in pain, but that one pulled at my heart.

Ness POV

"Vanessa!" I hear and Mark runs across the room. He switches spots with the Officer and wraps his arms around my bruised torso. I look up at him and he tries to wipe away the blood from my bruising face. I wince and he pulls back.

"Vanessa." He says, breathless.

"Is it over?" I ask and he nods

"Yes. It is all over."

"Miss Montgomery? The Paramedics would like to check you out and take you to the hospital" The Officer says and I struggle to get up. Maybe I am just not meant to be healthy and happy? Mark carefully picks me up and carries me up the stairs to the ambulance. The paramedics quickly check me out before we head to the hospital.

The entire drive there, I stay quiet and just stare at one spot on the ceiling.

Mark reaches out to hold my hand but I pull away and turn to the other side. I don't want him to see me so broken and helpless.
