TEN KIDS

Guess who's back?

So, where are you taking me?" I asked Jake. "It's a surprise. Now pack your things for a few days. I will wait for you downstairs" He said and left the room. Okay, we will be gone for a few days. I packed some clothes, makeup, and toiletries and went downstairs. Jake took my stuff and put them in the car. We were driving for three hours at the airport. We were on our way to San Francisco. After a while everything was great. We were headed to a motel in downtown in San Francisco. Jake said that we could go check out that Alcatraz prison since I am obsessing over it for the last three years. I think I watched every single documentary about it. It is just fascinating the story of how three prisoners escaped.

When we finally board the plane, I saw the news on this tablet thing on the chair that I had that Stella escaped. You remember that blonde idiot that used to be our friend before she was possessed and the one that killed Brooks. Apparently, there was a note that she left behind in the prison when she escaped. Inside the letter, it was written that she is coming after me and that I'm going to pay for what I did to her.

"Did you know that?" I asked Jake. "Well no but since we are going out of the country, we are both safe so don't worry I will protect you like I always do," Jake said and kissed my forehead. I wanted to say something to Jake but I was interrupted by the flight attendant. "We will go now, so please get your seat belts on and turn off your phones."

Minutes later we were in the air. I got some food and after that, I fell asleep. I was woken up by a very familiar voice on the speaker. No. It can't be her. She was supposed to be in my home town not here. On the plane with me and Jake. "I am looking for Chloe Dawson. If anyone knows her please tell me where she is and bring her to me right now. If I will have to get her, I will kill her right now and you will all have to watch." Stella said.

"What should I do Jake? She will hurt others I am sure she will. I can't put anyone in danger especially not you. I love you and I can't let her hurt you." I told Jake I have never been that scared in my entire life.

"No, I said that I will protect you. Now stand up and let's go to the bathroom. We are safer there than here." Jake grabbed my hand and lead me towards this little bathroom. It was less than 5 minutes after we hid in here and we heard a gunshot.

"No way she can't have a gun. Where did she get one?" I asked Jake, I saw it in his eyes that he was terrified and he knew that we might get hurt in the process.

"We're fucked babe you know that. We will get through this but don't say any words anymore. If we are here in silence, she might not hear us."

A minute went by and I heard a loud bang on the door. "You know that I know you two are in here?" Stella said. "You destroyed my life you bitch; I will kill you." She yelled.

"What do you want? Leave us alone. It's not my fault that you killed one of our best friends that we all share amazing memories with." I yelled back at her. Jake was getting angry at Stella. "Put the gun down Stella and we will talk okay?" I said calmly.

"No, I will kill Jake if you don't come out." She said. Now she really did piss me off. Who the hell she thinks she is? She is not going to tell me what to do. She never was like that and I will not let her hurt the only person that I love with all my heart. The love of my life. I am ready to die for him.

I turned towards Jake "you know that I love you right? And I am ready to die for you just to save you so please don't okay. I have to go out of here and try to put some sense in her empty head. Jake, I love you." I said and kissed him. I don't know why but it felt like a goodbye kiss. I really was ready. He kissed me back and hugged me so tight that I got tears into my eyes. I opened the door and looked at him. His eyes were full of tears. I never saw Jake cry. It was heartbreaking. But I had to do that.

"What do you want Stella?" I asked her. The way she looked; her appearance was scary. Her hair was messy and she was wearing some ripped pants and an oversized shirt. She was hurt on her elbows; she was bleeding and she smelled awful.

"Well, well, well look who decided to come out of her hiding spot." She said and laughed. Do you know that scary laugh that villains do in movies? It was exactly like that. She was holding a gun. I asked her again. "What do you want?" she replied with a very simple word. "You." What? She wants me? "Why me?" she started slowly walking towards me. "Because you were the one that put me in jail, remember?"

"Why did you kill Brooks?" I asked her. "I always hated Brooks. He was always all over me, all the time. I never had any time alone. I never had fun because of him. I hated him. That's why I took the chance when that ghost possessed me, I killed him with no guilt. I always wanted someone else from our group. But you. YOU took him away from me. You knew I liked Jake. But you went and took him from me right in front of me. So, I decided if I kill you I will finally have him for myself." She said. She never told me that she likes my boyfriend. Suddenly the door opened and Jake came out of the bathroom.

"I will never be yours Stella. You know that. It always was Chloe and she always will be" Jake said. Why did he come out? He should be in there and not out here. "Give me the gun Stella," Jake said.

"I know you do love me you always have you just didn't want to hurt her," Stella said. "Can't you see? We confessed our love to each other today so many times that everyone on this damn plane heard it why can't you just let that go and put this damn gun down Stella?" I said. She was so angry at me. She pointed a gun on me. She pulled the trigger. This is it. This is the end this is how I die. Then suddenly Jake pushed me on the floor. He got shot instead of me. I never thought that I will be that angry at someone that I really wanted to kill them. I yelled and stood up and jump on Stella. I grabbed her hand and took the gun away from her. I threw it across the plane. She really tried to escape but she couldn't. I was too strong for her. I grabbed her head and slammed it towards the floor that har that she actually fainted.

"Does anyone have a rope or something? We have to hold her so that the authorities will take her over. I need a doctor!" I said. I ran up to Jake. "Babe no you can't do that to me. You have to stay here with me. We were supposed to go explore like we always do and have fun. Don't give up okay. Help is here. I love you, Jake." I never was that scared in my life.

"I am fine Chloe okay she missed my organs she shot me in my arm. It surely does hurt like hell but I will be okay. I love you" minutes later the plane landed. Outside there were cops and two medics. I took our luggage and we went to the hospital. Jake survived. I can't imagine what would I do without him. I also still wonder. Was I that angry at Stella that I could actually kill her?
