A CRIMINAL Is In Love With Me

Tears goodbye.

Why does it take a minute to say hello but forever to say goodbye...

I choice this. I decided to join and now I have to suffer the punishment of all of this. Tears fell down my cheeks as I stood far behind a tree watching my body go in the ground. Rain fell indicating the tears that I can't pour. This is my tears goodbye.

2 weeks ago.

"Now have you decided how to die?"

I clenched my fist tears falling. "C-can't there be any other way Ace?" I wiped my face. "P-please."

I knew it was hopeless. I realized small things about him. Like how he slapped me when he saw someone enter the office after the little moment we had.

Or the time he held my hands but it made it seem he was doing it for his people. I notice glimpse of his good side. His true self but he drowns it in his darkness when he remembers reality... I know he doesn't want to do this. I hope he doesn't want to do this.

"I am sorry Amore mia. I can't have your brothers having hope."

I broke out a sob. I covered my mouth and Ace walked to me. "Dawn..."

I couldn't hold in the tears. I did this didn't I?

"Please stop crying Amore mio."

He pulled me into his chest and I instantly felt calm and safe by his touch. His hands stroked my back as he shushed me trying to calm me down. "I-ican't do that to them. Please Ace make it stop."

I clenched on his shirt. "Don't make me do this." I buried my face into his chest. "Please."

Michael Pov:

My head pounded as if a Elephant was knocking my head. I tried to open my eyes but instantly regretted it. I groaned blocking the bright light from my direction. I painfully rolled off the couch trying to subtract the buzzing sound ringing in my ear.

"I'm coming i'm coming!" I groaned. I stepped over the empty beer bottles and the ashes of smoke. I stepped over leftover food and clothes.

I grabbed my phone and swiped right. "Hello?"

The ringing continued. I pressed answer again but the ringing continued.
I looked at my phone only to see a shoe. I sighed and looked behind the pillows and piles of clothes.

Where is that god damn thing?

I found it in a bag of food and I swiped right. "Hello?"

"Michael Crow?"

I wiped my face yawing. "This is he? Who asking."

"This  is Doctor McCall. I have tried calling the Thorn residence but no one has answered. You are next on the emergency list...I suppose."

I cleared my throat. "You won't get an answer from them. What is the reason you calling?"

I swatted a fly from my face and pushed away the smelly Chinese food.

I scratched my facial hair and my over grown hair.

"We think we have Dawn Thorn body. We would need you to identify it please."

My eyes widen and the phone slipped from my hands. I could hear his voice but my mind turned blank..

Dawn?

Body? Identify? I threw on some jeans and grabbed a jacket and ran out of my apartment which I had not left in weeks. almost a month.
