I watched as the intricate red lace blood crawled down the side walk. My fingers trembled as I still hung unto the heavy chunk of metal glued to my hands. My heart skipped beats. I couldnt believe what I've just done.

On the floor my dad laid choking on his own blood and panting for life. I fell to my knees the gun slamming against  the floor with a thud.   I ran my fingers on his wound and as I stared at my fingers I watched as the blood slid down from my pointer to the end of my palm.

" Dad.. " I said. He coughed again and I hurriedly hovered over him.

" Dad. I'm sorry I did this to you.. I was scared and I'm sorry! "

He shook his head, as I buried my face in his blood-stained cardigan my tears drenching his shirt. I felt his fingers swivel around my head as if to consol me.

" Don't apologize. You did the right thing."

He said through more pants.

" No, I didn't. I shot you.  I didn't do the right thing! I'm such an idiot! " I cried. He groaned.

" B-Brittany.  I have to tell you something." I crawled up to look at his face.

His soft caramel brown eyes staring into mine and I saw the father I always knew.

A smile planted on his face.

" What? "

Suddenly that smile slowly diminished and his eyes didn't look as if he were looking at me.  But looking past me, his pupils grew small.

" Dad? " I said. Shaking him. He didn't move.

" Noooooooo!!!!!! " I cried out. Crying in his cardigan and sobbing.

Minutes passed and I laid still by my fathers corpse. I texted Oliver, saying goodbye.  He answered quickly though I didnt bother to open his message.

" Why do I deserve to live? " I asked my self whispering into the air. I held the gun in my palms.

" I don't." I said to myself once again. I picked my head up from the ground and shook in pure terror. My fingers trembling over the trigger. I pointed it to my head and shut my eyes. I tried to focus on the sounds of the world but the only thing I could really hear were the police sirens coming my way. They probably heard the gun fire. I didn't care, I didn't deserve to live I didn't deserve to be end people's lives and take joy of my own.

" Put the gun down! " I could hear the police make a hectic stop before me. Their guns pointed in my direction.

" I love you dad, I love you mom." I said.

" You don't have to do this!! " A cop yelled from the right. I smiled.

" I love you grandma, grandpa, fangirls from school, Ms. White, Mr.Dailey, and even you Mr. Crumb. "

" You're young.. You have your whole life ahead of you..  Just set the gun down! "

" I love you employees of Frolio King, Dominic, And Cody."

" Don't!!! "

They yelled.

" I love you most of all Qe'Ana, Ben, Angelika, Danny, Jordan, Matt K, Matt N, Lee, Jona, and Curtis! "

I smiled even harder.

And then it soon diminished.

" I love you Oliver."

I shut my eyes tighter then ever.

" Brittany... If you really love me... You'd put it down." I opened my eyes to see Oliver. Standing near the police his eyes glistened with guilt.
