Bad Boys Who Become Bodyguards ✔

Chapter 26. Death and Sadness.

>>Maise POV<<

"We are here to make a toast to the death of an amazing person," I say, raising my champagne glass in the air. I'm sitting in Kara's living room with some friends. "Trystan used to be this amazing guy until he changed into a psychopath. He was arrogant and selfish so thank the Greek gods for killing him." I say, drinking my glass. I step down from the table I was standing on and I set my glass down on the table. "Hey, how's Kara?" AJ asks me. I glare at him, "Kara is fine AJ, the doctors said she will have to be hospitalized for a few weeks before she can go home." AJ nods before walking back to Diana.

I roll my eyes and grab my coat, walking outside. I pull my cigarettes from my pocket and pull one out, lighting it with my small ass lighter. What? I smoke when I'm stressed. I inhale a puff and exhale one out. "Hey, how you holding up?" My boyfriend Lee asks me, wrapping his hands around my waist. "I'm alright, just in shock of the whole thing," I say, inhaling another puff of smoke. I blow it out before handing the smoke to Lee as I walk inside. Once I walk in I say goodbye to a few people who I don't even know. I walk to the kitchen and grab some painkillers along with some of Kara's favorite foods.

I walk back outside and steal my keys from Lee before driving to the hospital. Once I get there and walk inside a lady tries to stop me but I just walk past, showing her a police badge. She backs off as I walk to Kara's room. I knock on the door and I watch as my dad stands from a chair and walks to the door, opening it for me. "Hi, daddy," I say, giving him a small hug before rushing past him to see Kara in bandages and her face all bruised. She looks over and forces a smile at me. "Hey, Kara," I say, setting the stuff I brought on the side table. "Maisie, thank you for showing up at the scene." She says to me.

The accident was a week ago and she's been sick of having to sit in the hospital all the time. "Hey, I did what I had to do Kara," I say to her, pulling a chair to the side of her bed and sitting down. I take her hands in mine and I shiver at the touch of her freezing hands. She's been cold since they brought her up from the scene. "Maisie, am I gonna die here?" Kara asks me concerned. "God no Kara, the doctors will help you okay?" I lie. The doctors said that the best they could do was patch up and stitch her wounds but since Trystan had all the luck in the world, he did do a lot of damage in Kara's shoulder when he stabbed her. He dug the knife so deep he hit some spot and almost killed her. I don't remember what doctors or people, in general, tell me.

I swallow the lump in my throat as Kara falls asleep to take a nap. I feel a tear roll down my face and I wipe it away when my dad walks over. "I'll sit with her Mais, you need to go home." He says, placing a hand on my shoulder. I nod and stand from my spot, walking out of the room. I walk outside and break down in tears. I need to stop thinking about her death and I need to focus on her that she's alive right now. I brush away my tears and calm down before I break down again. I fix my hair and try to breathe normally which starts to work after a few minutes of trying. "Maisie, you should head home love." I hear my dad's voice say from the front doors of the hospital. I nod and start walking to my car.

I get into my car and start it, driving back to Kara's house where AJ's car is still here along with Lee's. I pull my car in and take my keys out, getting out of the front seat. I walk to the front door and walk inside where AJ, Dianna, and Lee are sitting on the couch quietly. They all stand when I take my coat off and sniffle. Lee walks over and wraps his arms around my shoulders. "How was she?" AJ asks me. "She's gotten worse, her wounds won't heal is what the doctors said. They also said that she may or may not die." I say. AJ nods and walks back to the couch with Dianna.

"Hey, she'll be okay I promise," Lee says to me, hugging me tightly.

{}{}{} THE NEXT DAY {}{}{}

I feel my eyes flutter open and I look around to notice that I'm still in the clothes from yesterday and I'm on the couch. I sit up and groan at my massive headache. I see AJ and Dianna sleeping on the floor while Lee is laying at the other side of the couch. I feel my phone ring in my pocket and I see that it's my dad. I pick it up and walk outside, "dad? Is everything alright?" I ask, rushing the conversation forwards. "Maisie, the doctors called last night. She..didn't make it." I feel air hitch in my throat and I drop my phone, falling to the ground in tears.

I sob into my sleeves and I hear the front door open as Lee picks me off the ground and pulls me into him. I sob and cry for what seems like forever but it was only thirty minutes. I take my head out from Lee's chest and I pull away from him, walking back into the house. I pick up the house phone and find Kara's mom's number, calling it immediately. "Hello?" I hear a voice say. "Hi is this Mrs. Tison? Kara's mom?" I ask on the phone. "Yes, is this Maisie? Is everything alright dear?" She asks concerned about the phone. "Uhm....no. Mrs. Tison, Kara had been in an accident a week ago and she uhm..passed away today." I hear the line cut out as her mother hung up the phone.

I fall to the floor again, pulling my knees to my chest and sobbing. About twenty minutes later I get a knock at the door. I stand up and open the door to see Kara's mother standing in the frame. I rush to give her a hug and she drops her suitcases and hugs me tightly as she cries into my shoulder. I failed you, Kara, I'm sorry.
