Episode 32
?Beverly?
I watched as Kimberly paced around in Bryan’s living room.
“Kim, just calm down”.
“I can’t okay? I’m really worried for Justin because Mason has a hot temper”.
I faced Mia. “Any news?”.
“No but I’m calling the cops right now”. She said as she went to a farther side.
I sat on a couch. “I really hope Elsa is okay”.
“Yeah how’s Tristan taking it?”.
“He’s good for now”. I answered.
“Any news from Carl?”.
“He and the cops are going to the address given to them by Sean”. I told her.
She sighed. “Why would Mason try to do this to Elsa?”.
I shrugged. “Probably because she’s either Kyle or Bryan weak point”.
“And to think that I accused Sapphire of having a hand in this”.
“For the first time, i actually believed her when she said she had nothing to do with this”. I said.
Kim hugged her knees close to her chest as she flopped on the chair.
We looked at Mia who was still talking on the phone then her phone dropped to the floor.
Kim and I stood up in shock.
“Mia?”.
“Bryan”. She whispered as she crouched on the floor.
?Elsa?
I shuddered in fright as Mason placed a pocketknife on my neck. The cold metal threatening to pierce me.
“I’ll slit her throat if you both don’t do as I say”. He pressed the knife further on my neck as tears rolled down my eyes.
I glanced at Bryan and he blinked his eyelids repeatedly. What is he trying to say?
I thought he knew how to fight, i stared at him as he clenched his fists before releasing them.
Wait!! He could have beaten Mason up but I think he was stalling for time. But why the hell would he delay?
“Whatever Kyle did, he should be the one to pay for it not Elsa”. Bryan said.
“Nice talk but I’m not letting go of her”.
“Okay fine tell me what I did that you can’t let go of it”. Kyle said.
“Sapphire”. Mason replied.
Mason took the pocketknife away from my neck and I breathed out of relief.
“How is this connected with Sapphire?”. Bryan asked curious.
“You wanna know, huh? Ask that dumb a$s you have as a friend”.
“What the hell are you talking about? I didn’t do anything to Sapphire”.
Mason scoffed. “You didn’t do anything? What about the part where you took her v!rginity”.
“She willingly gave it to me”.
“She gave it to you doesn’t mean you should act like a dipshit later on. I sighted her first but then I left her for you thinking you loved her but turns out you acted like an animal”.
“How dare you call me an animal”. Kyle growled.
“Thats what you are, toying with every girl’s heart like a freaking football. How do you think they would react to it huh?”.
Mason sounded really angry. Kyle must have hurt him pretty bad.
“And the worse part is that they keep falling for you even more while you keep on destroying them”. Mason added.
“I’m sorry, okay? If that is what you want to hear”.
“Sorry isn’t enough for how many girls life you destroyed. Remember Selena?”.
Who is Selena? I noticed Bryan was staring at something behind us more like communicating with something behind us.
“Selena doesn’t have anything to do with you taking Elsa captive”.
Mason laughed evilly. “Can you hear yourself? Selena was supposed to be mine but as always she went to you and what happened, you impregnated her and forced her to go for an ab0rtion”.
“I didn’t force her, nitwit. She did it herself”.
I’m really confused here.
Selena?
Kyle?
Pregnancy?
Ab0rtion?
“It doesn’t matter, what matters it that she lost a lot of blood while killing her unborn child, she could have died”.
“Kyle, is he saying the truth?”. Bryan asked also confused.
“Yes okay? And I’m really sorry. I apologize for everything”.
“Nuh uh, i want you to beg me on your knees”.
“I’m not fvcking going to do that”. Kyle refused.
“Fine then your pretty Elsa gets it”.
Mason pointed the pocketknife at me again.
“Kyle, just go on your knees”. Bryan told him.
“You better choose, Vegas”. Mason said.
Kyle frowned before going on his knees.
“You too”.
“You’ve gat to be kidding me”. Bryan muttered.
“Both of you, on both knees. Now”.
“I’m not going on my knees”.
“What?”.
“You heard me”.
“Bryan, are you cr@zy?”. Kyle asked.
“Am I cr@zy? Mason is the cr@zy one here, just because of a few heartbreaks, he’s threatening to slit Elsa”.
“I’m gonna slit your little girlfriend if you don’t do as I say”.
Mason pressed the pocketknife closer to me, the cold metal against my skin.
“I’ve had enough of this”. Bryan said.
What the heck is Bryan doing?
“You think I can’t kill her?”.
I whimpered in fear as Mason brought the knife to my arm he gave me a cut there.
“Justin!!”. Bryan shouted.
I heard a loud sound and felt Mason’s hold loosen around me, he fell to the floor immediately groaning heavily.
I turned back and saw Justin holding a metallic pipe breathing heavily.
“That is sure to keep him out for a few minutes”. Justin said throwing the pipe away.
“Took you long enough”. Kyle said standing up.
I threw my hands around Justin as I hugged him, he paused for a moment before hugging me for a while.
I pulled away and turned back, Kyle kept on punching Mason.
I stepped back surprised, he was furious. Kyle Vegas is fvcking angry because of what Mason tried to do to me, i was literally shocked to the brim.
Why would he care? Why would he try to come save me? Probably because of Bryan.
I watched as Justin tried to drag Kyle away from the unconscious Mason.
“Hey”.
I turned to see Bryan.
He immediately crashed his lips on mine, it took a while for it to sink in that Bryan was actually k!ssing me.
I gave in to the k!ss pulling him closer as he wrapped his hands around me.
Then he pulled from the k!ss and gave me a hug drawing me closer to himself.
The hug lasted for a while, being in his arms is just what I needed at this moment.
“Sorry for the interruption, but we need to hurry up”.
We pulled away as Justin said that.
“Umm, sorry for kissing you like that”. He fidgeted.
“Its okay”. I replied.
“Did he do anything?”. He asked staring at me.
I shook my head negatively. “No, he didn’t”.
“I thought he did something and I swear i would have killed him but I guess, Kyle is doing that right now”.
Bryan looked really angry, i knew he was trying hard not to show his temper.
“He could have but he didn’t”. I muttered.
“I’m so glad you are okay”. He said pulling me into another hug.
“Why didn’t you fight back earlier?”. I asked confused.
“I figured out that Justin would have called the cops so I decided to stall for time before they get here”.
“I’m so glad you came”. I whispered.
“Are you okay?”.
Tears sting my eyes. “My arm hurts”.
I showed him my arm which blood trickled out of it.
He hugged me again patting my back then he pulled away and I saw Kyle pacing around.
“What happened?”. I asked lowly.
“He must have gone through the back with acrid fumes”. Justin whispered.
“We have to go”. Bryan said as he held my hand.
“What about Mason?”.
“I’ll help him up”. Kyle said.
Bryan took me outside the warehouse leading me across a pile of rubble. I heard a gunshot in the warehouse so I stopped.
“Whats that?”. I asked fearfully.
“Elsa, you need to go. The cops would be here any moment from now”.
“What about you?”.
He held my hands. “I’ll go check up on Kyle”.
“Let me go with you”. I told him.
“No you need to stay here and wait, you might lose a lot of blood because of your arm”.
“Bryan”.
We turned to see Justin running towards us.
“The cops will be here in 4 minutes”.
“I wanna go check up on Kyle”.
“I’ll go with you”. Justin replied.
I stayed outside the warehouse for a while looking around the cops. I heard another gunshot inside.
My chest heaved as my breathing rate went up high. I’m so worried. I felt pain in my arm as I held it, my fingers stained with blood.
Could it be Mason? I mean, he’s so cr@zy.
I ran back to the warehouse stepping in and stopped when I saw Mason pointing a gun at Kyle.
“Mason, just chill out”. Bryan said.
“Chill out?”. Mason shouted. “That a$shole hit me on the head with a pipe”.
“I had to”. Justin shouted in response. “What the heck is wrong with you?”.
“You wanna know whats wrong with me”. Mason said pointing the gun at Kyle. “That motherfvcker, i just feel like ending his life”.
“Mason, think this out. We are friends, remember”. Kyle said.
Suddenly gunshots rang from outside.
“I see you called the cops on me, friend”.
Mason pupped the gun immediately and I closed my eyes.
“Sh!t!!”. I heard Justin shout.
I opened my eyes and saw Bryan on the floor in front of Kyle. Kyle crouched in front of Bryan who was on the floor, blood on him.
It was like I couldn’t breathe as I watched Bryan on the fall in an ungainly way. The blood on him.
I saw as Cops ran into the warehouse buildings surrounding everywhere.
Gunshots were heard including sirens.
The only thing that registered in my mind was Bryan.
He took the bullet for Kyle. Why would he do that? After all Kyle did to him.
“Bryan”. I heard someone shout.
I watched as his elder sister ran to his side crying. When did Mia get here?
I began to feel blood dripping from the knife cut on my arm. I didn’t realize tears were rolling down my eyes as it blurred my vision.
“Help him up”. A voice shouted.
“Call the ambulance”. I heard another say.
I didn’t know what happened as I stood transfixed to the spot but all I heard were sirens and shouts.
“Elsa!!”.
The voices were fading.
“Elsa, stay with me”.
I heard Beverly’s voice as i fell to the floor weakly. It kept ringing in my ears but soon everything faded away.
The only thing on my mind was Bryan as I slipped into darkness.
