My Life

Have you ever loved something so much, but then someone takes it from you? Well that's what's happening right now, or at least I'm sure it's happening. Ashley takes out a knife, the shine glistens off my eyes and I begin to panic.

Let me catch you up. Alex had moved me up to a second floor bedroom a couple of days ago. He said that by me cooperating, that I'm being good so he gave me my window view. He was kind and gentle with me, for which I was thankful. Ashley on the other hand, has been trying to flirt with me for the last hour. Alex was chuckling in the other room at first, but he said he had to make a quick errand.
You see, Ashley will act somewhat well behaved when Alex is here; but as soon as he's gone, Ash will do as he wants.

That brings me to now. Ashley holds the knife firmly in his grasp and glances up at me. He sees the fear written behind these eyes and smirks his evil grin because he feels power. He knows that he wants me, he can take me now and get away with it.

"Ash please don't." I ask softly. The first rule I've learned since I've been here is to never provoke your captors.

"Then would you like to do the honours yourself?" He asks and I bite my lip. If he gives me the knife then I have the power.

"Yes I would actually." I reply and he chuckles a bit. "Why are you laughing?"

"You think I'm stupid enough to give you the knife." He says and I begin to cry. "I'll put it off if you're good."

"What do you mean?"

"If you have a decent conversation with me without all your attitude." I nod.

"What do you want to talk about?" I stop crying and wipe my eyes dry.

"Do you remember the day we first met?" He asks and I nod. "We were sitting next to your table and it wasn't until I told the guys that there was a hot brunette sitting in a booth alone, that Andy first noticed you. I told him I was going to go talk to you and ask you out, but he beat me to you."

"Which is why you're doing this." I say and he nods.

"Then at the school we got time to talk alone and I thought we had a connection. So when we were alone in my car, I thought maybe you wanted me too."

"So why not just tell me this instead of forcing yourself onto me?"

"Wouldn't matter, you're in love with Andy; but my last request is to fuck you and by doing so I screw Andy over."

"So this isn't attraction, this is revenge?"

"Revenge and to have someone to fuck who doesn't want a committed relationship."

"You're disgusting." I spit at him and he raises the weapon in his right hand.

"Well now you can say goodbye to the baby." He growls. Alex runs into the room.

"Ash what the fuck do you think you're doing?" Alex yells with his hand behind his back. Does he? No he wouldn't... Would he?

"Alex man, I'm just trying to scare some sense into her." Ash says relaxed. I really want to slap the smug smirk off his face.

Alex takes his hand out in front of him and holds out his gun. "Put the fucking knife down and back away from her!" Alex growls. Ash puts the knife down and gets up. "What made you think it's okay to threaten my wife?"

"Alex, why do you think I'm helping you?" Ash asks and Alex shrugs. "Well since you're going to kill me anyways, I'll be honest. I was going to kill you and keep Scar as my pet."
And with that, Alex shoots. The bullet hits Ashley in the head and I don't flinch. I simply get up, kneel down beside the corpse and shut his cold dead eyes.

"I can't believe I just killed him!" Alex begins to panic. I walk over to him and slap him across the face.

"Hold yourself together." I state and he nods. "I know what you're going through right now, and even though I shouldn't help my captor, I'll help you."

"What are we supposed to do?" He asks, tears building up in his eyes. I hold his hand.

"Everything is going to be fine, you just need to calm down." I say softly.

"How am I supposed to calm down? Didn't you just see what I've done? He's dead because of me!" He sobs.

"Alex I promise I will help you, you just need to stay calm and quiet. Now I need you to go into the backyard and dig a deep hole. It doesn't have to be big, just deep. Do you think you can go do that?" I ask and he nods. He pulls me back to the bed and handcuffs me to the headboard. "What the fuck? I'm helping you!" I yell.

"If you were to escape, then that would mean I killed Ashley for nothing. You may be helping me through this, but you're not running the show here." He says and leaves. I hear the door slam and I know he's going out to dig the hole.

I wait ever so patiently for Alex to finish, when he does he runs back to my room. "What's next?" He asks. He's filthy, sweat and dirt from head to toe, gross.

"How deep is the hole?" I ask crossing my arms.

"About eight maybe nine feet."

"Okay, you need to wrap Ash's body in that now bloodstained rug, and throw it in the hole."

"And after that?"

"Burn it, after the remains are completely burned, cover the hole and come back inside." He nods and does as he's told.

A couple of hours have gone by and Alex just came out of the shower. "We can't stay here, anyone could have heard the shots go off." I say.

"What about all of our DNI on this place?" He asks.

"Fire is a killer's bestfriend." I say and he gets dressed.

He packs up all his stuff and puts it in his car. He throws me into the passenger's seat and burns down the house. He gets into the car and starts driving.

"How do you know so much about this stuff?" He asks.

"My dad taught me one time. It was when I was pregnant with the twins and he called me over to lunch. When I walked into the door, a dead body was laying on the ground. He said he needed help and talked me through it." I say.

"You also said that you know what I'm going through. Scar what did you mean?" He asks.

"I killed Oliver Sykes."

"You did what?"

"He killed Kellin right in front of me and I wasn't thinking, I just took the gun from his hand and pulled the trigger. I was a terrified seventeen year old, it wasn't exactly my best moment."

"Who else knows what you've done?"

"My dad, my brother, and Jay. Jay works for my dad." He nods and keeps driving. "Where are we going?"

"We're going home."

"That's stupid, they're going to find me and you're going to get arrested. Great plan!"

"The cops already searched my house. The only person who's going to be checking the house is Andy, and I'll kill him when he steps in the door."

I pull my attention away from Alex and look out the window. Andy's going to find me and kill Alex. Andy's not going to die, if he does then I'll kill Alex and myself. If Andy dies, I die.



Andy's POV

I just got off the phone a few minutes ago. It was a call from the police station, I thought it was about Scar's investigation, but no. Apparently earlier this evening Ashley's house was burned down. None of us have been able to get a hold of Ashley all day, so it's most likely he's dead.

"Andy, I know you're going through a lot right now, but we have to focus, we don't want Scar to be next." Jack says and I look at him confused.

"What do you mean next?" I ask.

"It's obvious Ashley was working with Alex. Ash and Scar have always hated each other except for the last few months. He had been gaining back her trust so he could knock her down again." He says.

"How can you say that about my bestfriend?"

"Because no one else will tell you the truth. Focus, if you were Alex, where would you take her?"

"I'd probably take her home. The police had already searched his property so he can hide her in the house."

"Good thinking, now how are we supposed to get in there, save her, and get out without getting killed?"

"We don't, I do. Jack I don't want you risking your life, this is my problem, my fault. If I would have told her how I felt fifteen years ago, then none of this would have happened. You've been a great friend and thank you."

"Well what's your plan?"

"That's the problem, I have no idea."

"I think we can help." Jake says walking in with Jinxx and CC. "Trust me Andy, you'll get through this."
