Murderous Love

Chapter 9

I jolted out of my chair when I suddenly heard a knock at my door. I opened it and noticed that Tyler was laying on the floor. I immediately pulled him inside and sat him down on the couch. I turned off the TV, grabbed a cold washcloth and made him some hot chocolate. I sat the hot chocolate next to him and placed the washcloth over his eyes. I noticed his arm and ankle was hurt so I grabbed the first aid kit that has never been used. I grabbed some anti bacterial spray and used it on all the cuts he had. I wrapped up his arm after I was done. For his ankle I just made sure it was straight forward and wrapped up so it wouldn't get any worse. I got up and grabbed a blanket so he could rest. I was going to go back to my bedroom so I could sleep as well when he reached out for my hand. I turned back and saw that his eyes were slightly open. He had a little smile on his face that lit up the whole room, I grabbed his hand and sat back down. "I couldn't leave you alone with all this going around... I took my dad's truck but I kinda crashed it. So I ran instead. I just didn't want to leave you." Tears started rolling down my face. He did all of that for me. I don't understand why he did... He wiped away the tears on my face. He pulled me in and kissed me gently. I could tell he was nervous but I kissed back more aggressively. He let go and kissed my neck and hugged me tightly. I wrapped my arms around him and cried on his shoulder. The way he hugged me I could tell he was scared. He was alone. All I needed to do was comfort him. It was silent for maybe the next few minutes but then out of the blue a sudden bang let out. I never jumped up so quickly before. After the thunder hit Tyler suddenly grabbed onto my waist. He never told me things he was afraid of. Apparently thunder was one. I'd never expect someone like him to be so afraid of thunder. I sat back down on the couch and held him as he was constantly shaking. He was cold and his injuries made it even worse. It was like every time I would try to hug him I would always end up hurting him. I felt really bad because of it so I insisted that I should probably sit in one of the chairs. I tried getting up but he didn't let go. He didn't care that he was hurt, he just wanted me. I thought about what had happened earlier, and I forgive him. It is kind of terrifying that he was sentenced to kill me but yet again, he didn't pull through with it. I didn't even know the truth behind all of that. I'm extremely curious but I just don't want to butt in right now. I'll ask him whenever he's calmed down. Although, he never did calm down. The winds started picking up even more and we were instructed to hide in a room with no windows whatsoever. He ran upstairs and dragged me with him. I've never seen him so horrified before. This is a side that I haven't seen of him before. It's honestly really adorable. I let go of his hand for a second and he looked at me with a worried face. I assured him that he was okay. "You're not alone. I'm here, okay? Don't be scared." He looked at me and smiled. "I know, I'm just more worried about your safety right now." he responded. What he said made me feel warm. I really did feel safe with him even after everything else. I just wanted to be with him. That's it. I'm actually in love. Never thought I would say that to someone after Madison. I once said it to her but she only thought I was joking. She never loved me which explains the cheating. I just don't understand how someone could be so comfortable with someone else and then give up on that relationship. I mean, yeah maybe me and her never actually had a real connection I now realize that because of Tyler, but I thought I knew her. She seemed like she actually cared for me. Maybe that was just her way of getting all the attention. She was one of the outcasts and I was that one douche of a guy who everyone hung around with. I saw her once and thought "Wow, she's hot." what an awful thing.. I was in a bet and the guys forced me to ask her out. I didn't think it was a good idea at first but she never took her eyes off of me since I first saw her. She would look at me with this stare. It would always give me chills running down my spine. I finally gave in and asked her out. She laid me off for awhile and then she was talking to her friends one day and came up to me with this big smile. Her eyes were sparkling in the sunlight. At that moment I was truly attracted to her. I never felt something like I did that day. Me and her would just talk about life and future related things. We talked about having children and I believed everything she said. After maybe a few months my friends came up to me saying that everything was a joke and she just wants me for attention since I was considered "Popular". Of course I didn't believe them. I told them that the so-called joke turned into a real thing. My feelings were pure and true. I loved her so much. I got sketchy maybe around our 5th month anniversary. She would usually be with her friends instead of me during school hours. I didn't think anything of it. I just thought maybe she wanted alone time to just spend time with her friends and I could understand that a little bit. I became lonely and was diagnosed with depression earlier on in my highschool years. I was becoming less popular which I honestly don't care about, I just wanted to be known. I woke up one day thinking I just didn't want to be here anymore. I called my girlfriend saying my last words. She hung up on me rather quickly which made me lose hope. I held the gun up to my head waiting to pull the trigger when the doorbell just happened to ring. I tried to ignore it but it kept ringing. I was frustrated considering I just wanted to die. I walked downstairs to tell whoever was at the door to just go away. When the sound of angels appeared as I opened the door. There stood a tall woman with curly black hair and long slender legs, she was wearing a red dress that fit her every curve. She had on this perfume that was just heavenly. Long diamond necklaces that moved from side to side whenever she walked. Don't forget her brown eyes, they were just a pool of honey whenever sunlight hit them. It was Madison. I Suddenly forgot everything and just focused on her. It's like my life flashed before my eyes. Every memory spent with her just came to mind like a slideshow. She actually saved my life. I didn't think of me being with anyone else after that. We spent everyday together. We graduated together and even got into the same colleges. I even considered looking at engagement rings for her. There was one that was maybe $1,000.00. I didn't care how much it was at the time. I did it for her. I had been saving up since our first year of college. I was so close too. The last deposit I had was when she cheated on me.. The first time. After that I threw the jar of money that contained $997.86 at the wall. Every single dollar bill fell out and it felt like my heart was smashed into pieces with it. After that I never thought I would be able to love again. Then she came back. She apologized for everything and really seemed sincere about it. I believed it and fell in love all over again. I was in a trance and every time I saw her. It killed me honestly. It was hurting my reputation. I did everything she told me to do. I even had to pick her over my friends. Of course I never caught on to it and just went with her way. I think what finally broke me was when Tyler came here. My whole life just changed after that. I finally realized what I was missing in that relationship, love. There was no love in it whatsoever. It was lust. She was a toxic person and I already gave her a second chance so whenever she cheated on me with my best friend? I completely gave up on her. For all I care she can have my best friend. I wouldn't even consider him my best friend anymore. I dropped him so quickly that I completely forgot about him since that scene. I don't want anything to do with them. I just want to be with Tyler, and only him.
