Madelines POV

He had the gun pointed right at me. It was in that moment that I really thought I was going to die.

I made my fiancés best friend fall for me in a matter of two months.

And look at what he's done. he's gone insane.

I can't imagine what I was doing too Diego.

He had his finger on the trigger, and I was so convinced that he was going to pull it.

And he did.

not at me, but at the wall right beside my head.

Either he had really good aim and was trying to scare me, or he had really bad aim and missed me.

I screamed once the bullet pierced the wall.

I heard footsteps running through the living room, getting closer and closer to the door. I was hoping it was the neighbors or someone who heard the gunshot. Because if he really did just have bad aim, then I had no doubt in him trying again.

Then someone busted through the door.

"get the fuck away from her!" Diego ran in and punched Danny as hard as he could in the face. He grabbed the gun from his hands once he fell down on the floor. Diego went and sat the gun on the dresser by the bed.

Then in a matter of seconds, Steven came in the room as well. He looked at me as I stood stiff against the wall, my head just a few inches away from the bullet hole in the wall.

He ran over to me and grabbed me, wrapping me in a comforting hug.

"its okay..." it sounded like he was whispering through the ringing that still carried on in my ears from the gunshot.

Those words allowed me to start sobbing out of terror.

He pulled back and cupped my face in his hands, pushing my hair out of my face.

"did he hurt you?" he asked.

I shook my head and gazed over at Diego who was screaming at Danny with tears rolling down his face.

I pulled out of Stevens embrace and ran over to Diego, hugging him as tight as I could.

It took him a second, but he then wrapped his arms around me, holding me tightly, making me feel safe again.

"Steven, call the fucking police. I want this son of a bitch gone..." Diego said, sounding disgusted and hurt at the same time.

I looked at danny whose facial expression told me everything. He was hurt.

"you still chose him over me!" Danny cried out.

He was losing his fucking mind.

"I don't want you talking to her. I don't even want you looking at her..and don't you dare even for one second think shes going to be with you. Because shes mine! I forgive her for the shit she did with you, because I know it was a mistake! I promise you, if I ever see you again...I will put a fucking bullet through your god damn head... do you understand me?" Diego's voice cracked while gritting his teeth at Danny.

Danny nodded his head while slowly backing up to the dresser.

Diego wrapped his arms around me, putting his back towards Danny.

"I love you...and im sorry..please..can we please move on and get married already..im tired of constantly worrying about losing you.." diego cried.

"baby..im sorry..what I did was wrong..and if I could take it back..i would.." I rested my chin on his shoulder. Then my eyes flickered open, looking at danny.

He was facing towards the dresser, not even paying attention to me and Diego.

Then it hit me.

The gun.

"diego!" I shoved him off of me quickly and out of the way, making him fall against the wall.

But before I could move, Danny had already swung around, pulling the trigger right at me.

At first...I didn't feel anything at all. I was numb. I looked down at my leg and my jeans turned a dark shade of red.

He shot me...and if I wouldn't have pushed diego out the way, it would've been diego.

I was speechless for words. I slowly stumbled down to the floor, staring at my upper thigh where the bullet wound was while I shook violently.

I looked up at diego who was staring down at me, scared..

"madeline..i wasn't trying to-" danny dropped the gun.

"yo-you were...trying...to shoot diego...that's why..i-I pushed him..out of...the way.." I said between deep breathes, trying to keep myself from panicking.

"are you fucking bipolar or something?" Steven yelled at Danny.

"you're a fucking psychopath!" Steven continued as he bent down, picking me up.

He carried me outside where an ambulance had already been out in the driveway. They must've come with the police.

I was starting to feel light headed from all the blood I was losing.

"wheres..wheres diego.." I groaned in pain.

"he's coming baby, he's coming don't worry, you're gonna be alright," Steven said.

"he..he shot me.."

"I know..and trust me, hes not getting away with it." He reassured me before laying me down on the cot.

My vision started to get blurry, I felt like I was ready to fall asleep.

"don't let her fall asleep. She's losing too much blood." I heard a man say.

Then in seconds, diego appeared in front of me.

"baby come on, you gotta keep looking at me okay?" he smiled while wiping a tear away from his cheek.

"why are you crying...? You-you didn't get shot.." I slurred.

"because baby, you did and I'm scared.." I felt him grab my hand.

My eyes started to grow heavy, so I went to shut them.

"no baby, come on. keep your eyes open." Diego grabbed my hand, holding it with both of his.

"she..shes cold. Why is she cold?" Diego asked someone. I had no idea who he was talking too.

"lets get her to the ER now." The same man I heard earlier said.

There was a bump, then I felt like I was being lifted, which I was. I was lifted into the ambulance on the cot.

Then diego sat down next to me, still holding my hands.

"baby im never leaving your side again. Fuck the tour. Ill do whatever I gotta do to keep my career going by your side. I cant lose you..." he kissed the top of my hand before my eyes started to close without my control.

"I cant lose you.." was the last thing I heard before falling unconscious.
