Behind The Mask

Chapter 25: I'm officially out of your life.

Another one ;)

HUNTER'S POV.

What the fuck.

I sit on the pavement next to the car I was hiding behind and palm my face. I can't believe this.

Emma is involved in some gang shit? I mean I wouldn't really put it past her but....

SHE'S IN A GANG ?

After she left me stranded in the parking lot I couldn't stop myself from getting in my car and following her wherever she was going. She seemed so distressed and distracted. I had to know what was bothering her. I know it's an invasion to her privacy and that it's extremely wrong from my side but I'm gonna file it under "she seemed distraught and I had to make sure she gets wherever safe."

I didn't know that wherever would be a gang site though. I can't believe I haven't seen it before. The clothes, the motorcycle, the bad bitch attitude, and most importantly, the mysterious past.

I take a peek at the building. This building has always been here. As abandoned as ever; no one ever really cared about who or what was inside. Kids just come and vandalise the walls with their graffiti designs and that's it. Little did everyone know that it's a headquarters to a gang.

A gang that Emma is involved with. I run both my palms over my face. What the hell does she do with these guys. Does she sell drugs and kill people?

I punch the wall next to me so hard and wince from the instantaneous pain.

"UGHHH" I groan as my hand throbs and bleeds all over the pavement. Why Emma ? Why the fuck would you do this ? why when I started to get attached to you?

I clench my eyes shut as the memories resurface. Then the throbbing pain in my hand disappears as I do my best to focus on that pain instead of what's yet to come but it's too hard to control my thoughts with so many triggers.

I pull at my hair real hard to distract myself. I punch my already bloody hand to the wall again and groan in pain. Any physical pain is a hundred times better than what goes inside my head.

A loud noise gets me out of my mind and to the real world. I look over to the building and find Emma striding towards a black van in confidence. A tall black man opens the passenger door for her; she smiles at him and gets inside the car without a word. They drive away to god knows where so they can do god knows what.

I don't care anymore.

I remember just a few hours ago promising myself that I'll be a part of this girl's life because she amazes me. Now I don't want anything to do with her. She disappointed me.

And I really don't want to be a part of her life since she's already ending it.

Emma Brown I'm officially out of your life.

Things escalated.

I know it seems like Hunter is overreacting but don't judge since you don't really know what goes through his mind yet...

That was a short one too gonna make the next one lengthy I promise.
