Shadow (sequel to Will You Be My Superman)

Avalanche chapter 26.

EDITED
Paige's Pov-
"Thanks Max!" I wave to him as I jump out of the car. I wipe off my white wash jeans, and wander the dock. I check my phone to see its 7:00 p.m. But still no sign of Chuck. I sigh, and walk over to a bench plopping myself on it

Exactly 5 minutes after sitting on the bench I notice Chuck waving for me to come over by him. I shove my phone into my bra, and walk towards him practically in all smiles.

As I get closer to Chuck I notice something in his hands. I squint to see what the item is, and it's a gun. I blink quickly, and then turn around, and run.

I pull my phone out, and call the first contact I see, and hide behind a food cart, my breath beginning to shorten.

"Hello?" The voice questions in confusion.

"Help." I croak out causing a huge pain in my chest. I hear the phone be set down and muttering in the background.

"Paigey?" Another voice exclaims.

"Mommy." I wheeze. "I can't breathe." I hear a faint shout towards Nick, and then the phone hangs up.

I lay my head against the food cart. I'm about to piss my pants, and pass out. Mom and Nick need to get here soon because if I pass out, Chuck will find me, and do who knows what.

My vision begins to fade in and out. My breathing becomes slower, which causes my anxiety to raise. My thoughts aren't straight anymore, and a green van pulls up. And two people walk out.

"Paige oh my gosh. Baby?" The voice whispers grabbing my hand.

Who is this person? Who's Paige. I thought I was Violet? (an: see what I did there?)

"Nick she's going unconscious." The voice cries looking over to muscular man look disappointed.

I feel myself get lifted up ,and a feeling of pain shoots in my right leg. But I don't scream, or cry. I look down at where the pain is. I notice a red, warm liquid pouring out of my leg. Why are my ears ringing?

"Nick. Chuck shot her. Come on hurry up." The feminine voice sobs. I look over to the woman, and she's in full blown tears. Why are they freaking out its not like I'm dying.

As I'm put into the green car, which I actually found out as I was being carried closer to it, it is actually black, I start to see better, and breath better.

I'm laid across two seats in the back, and the girl and boy jump in the front, and drive away quickly. I feel something thrown at my face, and I mutter a quiet, "Fuck you." For some reason, I automatically know where to place the rag. Oh yea the thing thrown at me was a rag. I apply the rag to the bleeding area on my leg.

"Where's mom?" I blurt out confused on who these two people are.

"Adoptive or real?" The Nick guys says.

"Adoptive. My real one is a big bitch and almost killed me." I practically chuckle in sarcasm, but then cringe in pain.

"You mean Demi?" Nick snickers looking over to the pouting woman in the front seat. Oh wait Nick is Demi's fiancé, and Demi is the woman. Whoops. But why is her hair a blondish color? I thought it was red.

"Mom stop dying your hair." I command from the backseat. I hear both Nick and Mom laugh. "You're quite humorous for a 16 year old who just got shot," mom giggles.

Wait shot? Someone shot me. "Chuck he.." I stutter staring out the window seeing a hospital sign.

"Yea he shot you pumpkin." Mom sighs looking back at me with tears welling In her eyes.

"Don't cry, please, it'll be fine." I smile, but then squint since I moved my leg forgetting I was just shot. How do I forget I was shot when we're holding a conversation about it right now?

I take the rag off my bullet wound, and notice it's completely soaked in blood. "Uh I don't think a bandaid will help with this," I mumble watching my parents get out of the car.

And of course I begin to panic. I watch a gurney be brought to the van door, and I'm carried to it. One of the dumbass doctors touched my wound on accident causing it to bleed more.

"Mommy, daddy, don't let me die." I cry out in pain from the bullet, and my heart. I watch Dad's eyes glisten with something and he reached for me hand.

"Don't worry you won't crash down like an avalanche," he smirks.

Mom then shoves him slightly. "That makes no sense Jonas," She sneers, shaking her head.

I smile slightly since the pain im feeling, feels like I'm dying. Oh wait, I am slowly dying.

"We need to remove the bullet," a doctor shouts.

"Put her under!" Another yells back.

My eyes grow in fear, and I look at my parents who looks like they're about to break down, especially mom, but there's strength evident in their eyes.

Dad grabs my hand, and looks at me as my eyes begin to droop. "I want you to know that we love you so much. Don't forget that." Dad sniffles. I feel something wet fall onto my bare arm, and notice he's crying, and is burying his face into mom.

"I won't forget." I whisper forcing a smile that feels all so real, but I'm not sure if it looks real. And then my eyes close, and all the sounds of crying, and beeping fades out.
