Take A Chance

Chapter 19

*Phillip's pov*

We hear a loud shout and instantly I knew it was W.D. I tried to warn Ember but it was to late. There is an instant look of horror on her face once she heard the shout. "Stay here!" she said,but I knew W.D. Needed me. I managed to get up, stumbling and started to walk as fast as I could. It hurt. It hurt badly. But I knew I was needed. I stumbled and limped all the down. Once I reached them I saw Ember uncontrollably shaking and crying. Anne was there to. She was trying to stay strong but there was tears rolling down her cheeks. "What happened?!" I asked worriedly as I couldn't see W.D. "HE IS GONE!" shouted Ember in grief. "No....." I said quietly. Ember turned around slowly her eyes meeting mine. There was fury in her eyes. "If you hadn't have been hurt so bad we would have made it in time! My childhood friend is gone!" she shouted loudly.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap like that..." she said quietly sobbing. She ran over to me and hugged me tightly. I looked down at her and lifted her head up with my hand. "We will get through this. I promise." I reassuringly told her. She leaned forward and kissed me. It was a needy kiss. For both of us. But suddenly she pulled away and started screaming. I turned around to see the very man who trapped me staring down at me. "Look who made it out alive!" There was a smell of beer and blood in his breath. A smell I knew all to well. My immediate reaction was to push Ember back. But she pushed me back instead. "Don't mess with my friends!" she punched him right in the face. Damn.

A female figure walked out from behind him. Instantly Anne comes up to me. "What do you want?!" Anne asked with intimidation in her voice. "For you all to die." the woman said with a smile as she emerged from the darkness. "Lizzie?!" Anne said quickly. "Miss me?" Lizzie said with an evil chuckle. Ember came up from behind her. She spun Lizzie around so that Lizzie would be facing her. "not at all." Ember said grabbing Lizzie by the neck. "Leave." Anne whispered into her ear. Suddenly Lizzie took out a dagger and stabbed Anne in the hand.

"Nah." she said with a smirk. She kicked Ember forward into a lamppost. I tried to go over to Ember  but P.T held me back. Anne pushed Lizzie away so that she fell to the ground. Anne put her foot on Lizzie's body. "I will tell you once more.Leave" Anne said strictly. "Not without him." Lizzie said and pointed at me. "Why me?!" I asked shocked. I didn't even know the woman. "Because you love someone. My friend is that someone. My best friend." Lizzie said. "Don't you dare call her your best friend after what you did to her." Anne said,anger in her voice. "What did she do?" I asked inquisitively. "She took the only person who she loved away from her. Her sister,Anabella. I was best friends with Lizzie and Ember until the day we found Anabella lying on the floor of her bedroom...." Anne couldn't finish. Tears started rolling down her cheeks.

I looked over at Ember and ran over. She was unconscious once again. I kiss her on the forehead and tell her she will be alright. But then I noticed it sounded awfully quiet behind me. I turned around to see that Lizzie was gone and Anne was looking at her dead brother. "Why would someone do this to him? What did he ever do?!" she asked anger radiating off of her. I went over and put my hand on her shoulder. The minute I did so she collapsed down to her knees beside W.D,rocking herself.

I thought it would be best to leave her be. I walked over to Ember and held her closely. I felt miserable after what had just happened. I nearly died, W.D did die,Ember and I finally kissed and now she is unconscious in my arms. "What the hell is going on?" I ask myself out loud.

Then suddenly Ember woke up terrified. She hugged me tightly and said " I had a horrible dream where you nearly died and W.D died and my old friend Lizzie came back." I looked at her pitifully. "Sorry to tell you,Emb but that was not a dream." Once I said this her eyes widened and tears filled them as quick as possible. She pushed me out of the way to see where Anne was. Once she saw Anne crying beside W.D she started crying to. "No.... It can't be." Ember said shaking. She slowly made her way over to Anne,who pulled her into a hug as they grieved together. W.D was like a brother to Ember,just as much as he was a brother to Anne. I started to cry as well. Even though we may not have liked each other at the start but we became good friends and we trusted each other.

"We should bring them back." said P.T in my ear,making me jump. "umm ya sure..." I said. He went over and picked up Anne who fell straight asleep,tired from everything that had just happened. But when I picked up Anne she just nuzzled into my chest. We walked back to the circus. It hurt really bad. My leg was soar and I could barely even breathe.

Once we reached the circus I was about to leave with P.T to get W.D's body when Ember pulled me back to her by the arm. She didn't even say anything. She didn't need to. Her lips and my lips locked for the third time. I knew I loved her since the first day I met her but I was to scared to show my feelings to her. Now I know that she loves me back. She finally let go of the precious moment. I turned around and started walking with P.T. "So.. Lovebirds much?" P.T asked with a cheeky smirk. I felt my face burning up. "You know the first day that you met the guys I thought it was Anne you liked. But then I saw you with Ember. You guys understand each other and would do anything to help each other. The same as Charity and I." he finished his little speech with that.

When we got to the spot where W.D's body was. P.T stood there eyes and mouth wide open. "What the hell....." I ask myself. "Where is W.D gone?!"

*Ember's pov*

The boys have been gone for ages now and I was beginning to get worried  Just as I was thinking about the boys P.T walks in,his face as white as a ghost. "What is it?!" I asked nervously,fidgeting with my fingers. Then I realise that Phillip isn't with P.T. "Is it about Phillip?!" I asked quickly. "W.D......."P.T said. "What?" I asked a bit frustrated. "His body is gone." I looked at P.T in shock. No.....

"AGGGHHHHH!"

Guys don't worry the story is not going to turn into an investigation  Next chapter will be back to normal. There was a lot of emotions in this chapter,I know . But I just felt like this is probably the biggest chapter in the story so far.

Ok my rant is over!
