Del's POV
I went to chase after her but I tripped up on some clothes on the floor. I scurried to get up and out of the room only to witness the front door close downstairs. I stand in the hall for a second before taking off down the steps, passing my fellow gang members. Shit shit shit, I knew this wasn't going to work out. I'm out the door and run down the street as fast as possible. I turn a corner and see a man drag a woman into a van, then watch the van drive off. It was her. It was Julia. I grunted in frustration as I realized I had let her get kidnapped AGAIN. My feet started to move themselves back to the base as I recalled the car's plate number and the man that got her. I walk into the base and see the guys sitting on the couch staring at me. That's when I realize, I'm not wearing the mask.
"Uuuuhhhhh, hey guys," I say, "So it's me, Jon,"
I feel awkward but then remember why I ran back.
"Julia's in trouble and we need to get her back right now. Mini pull up the traffic cams right now." he seems to hesitate so I yell at him and he's at the computer, pulling up the cams. I locate the van and follow it to an abandoned building about 10 mins away from the base. Four guys ready up and I grab my shit. I'm not about to lose her again. We get to the building in no time. Turns out the people who got her were petty criminals looking for a good time. Disgusting. We take care of them quickly leaving us with Jul. I walk up to her to untie her but she has already gotten herself out of the ropes.
"I had everything under control fuckers,"
"I'm not about to lose you again Julia," I say. I'm angry but glad to see her.
"You lost me a long time ago. Maybe one day I'll forgive you, but this is all too much." She crosses her arms and walks past us to the car.
"Damn, you're fucked man," Tyler says. I walk up to him and punch him in the face. He sees the rage in my eyes and backs up. The ride home is silent and painful. He's right, I fucked up harder than ever. She is never gonna forgive me.
When we get home she just goes to her room. Completely locks herself away. She skips lunch and dinner. I feel super bad and go to check on her.....
Julia's POV
I forgive him. I really do. But I'm so angry that he waited for so long. All I want is for him to say sorry once more and just hug me. I know it doesn't make sense but I spent my whole life dedicated to him, I lived for him. It's been hours and for all I know, I've missed all meals times. Hunger isn't a problem though, I didn't want food anyway. I hear a knock on my door and I open it to see Del. His eyes are filled with thousands of 'I'm sorries'. I move aside, allowing him into the room and he sits on the bed.
"I'm so sorry Julia. I wanted to tell you but I didn't know how. After hearing your story, I felt bad. My brain begged for me to say something but I didn't want you to be mad," he kept trying to explain himself and I couldn't help it anymore.
"No Jon. What you did... I ruined my life, just trying to get you back. Then when I came to terms with it, it was too late. I was wanted everywhere and had no place to go. The only friends I had we my knives. And one fateful night I trip on a Goddamn beer can and became a part of a family. I want to forgive you Jon, but you took my life away!" I'm so angry I didn't realize the tears streaming down my face. I wipe them away and I look into his saddened blue eyes.
"Julia..." I see his fist tighten on his leg, " Julia, I love you. I admit I did the worst thing ever and took away the life you always wanted, but I want to give it back. I feel like the guys have already given you that but I just wanna protect you and keep you safe. Hell, I showed the guys my face today trying to save you." He stood up and I now had to look up to meet his gaze. I felt less angry and more upset. Deep down I loved him. I remind myself of all the promises we made as kids; getting a house together, becoming the perfect killing couple. He may have ruined it all, but he seems to genuinely want to take everything he has done back. I start to cry, harder and harder. My knees feel weak and it seems my painkillers start to wear off as all the torture zones ache and throb. I start to collapse but he catches me before I hit the floor. I can't stop crying and I start to hit his chest and let out a scream. He ruined me. He ruined us, and he thinks he can just take it all back. My arm starts to hurt and I just go limp in his arms. I feel warm and safe. He starts to pet my hair and picks me up, carrying me to my bed.
"I'm sorry Julia. Shh, it's ok, everything will be ok." His voice is so calming. He sits on the edge of the bed and I slowly roll over and wrap my arms around his torso. I don't want him to leave, not again not ever. He starts to sing Somewhere Over the Rainbow as my eyes grow heavy.
