Love is a strong word

Chapter 27

Alex's Pov.
"No!" I scream, "get off of me!" I yell, thrashing around trying to get out of Dallas's grip. I let tears fall down my face and my body slowly come to a stop because fighting is just too much. Dallas finally let go of me and I walk over to Nikole's body. "I can fix this..." I cry. "I can. I really can fix this. I'll bring her back." Blake let out a low growl, "this is all my fault." He screamed, hitting a wall. A huge whole appeared in the wall as the dust cleared. Blake's knuckles were bleeding, but it didn't seem to faze him. He paced back and forth, "you have to do something, Alex. Please." I shook my head, "I don't know the spell."
"That's not excuse! Fix it." Blake yelled, and jumped in my face. Dallas rushed over to me and stood between me and Blake. "Calm down." Dallas said, resting his arms on Blake's shoulder. He shrugged Dallas off and pushed him. Dallas didn't retaliate because he knew it was out of grief. My eyes sting from crying, my throat hurt from screaming, my body weak from fighting.

"Alex?" A knock on my door woke me from my thoughts. "Come in," I reply so quiet. Dallas opened the door and peaked his head in, "are you okay?" I chuckled. "How could I? This isn't supposed to be our life, Dallas. Nikole and I were supposed to go to college. Make our parents proud..." I looked up at Dallas and his eyes were black and full of sadness of his own, and a whole lot of sympathy. When he was silent, I continued. "Nikole-" A tear fell from my eye. "She shouldn't be dead..." Now a million tears are falling. Dallas slowly walked over to me, and sat on my bed. He pushed me into his chest, and I cried in the crook of his shoulder. "I wish I could fix it, baby." Dallas whispered in my ear, running his fingers through my long hair.

Blake's Pov.
Im nothing anymore Nikole is dead. I sigh and try not to think of it. I cry silently as possible. I know this is all my fault. It's all my fault. This would have never happened if I didn't come back to Florida. If I never met Nikole...
