UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 161 – 170

” I don’t know what to say. I don’t even wanna think about it. This is so fucked up.” She stands up and walk to the bar to get a drink.

She opens the alcohol and chug down the content.

” Ariel , say something.” Brandon pressures.

” I don’t know what to say either. I’m glad none of us was harmed and also I had no idea they were after me. I don’t know guys.” I say and rub my palms down my arms.

I need a long bath.

” Fuck. I’d never thought maybe I was ever gonna witness a gun fight. Tonight was like a war zone and I thought I was gonna die.” Piper says.

” Thankfully we weren’t shot. Some people died at spot. I almost puke at the sight of blood and injured people.” Brandon says. And I thought i was the one overreacting at the sight of blood.

” I need a bath and a long rests. We should be leaving early tomorrow morning.” I say and pick up my shoes and stand up.

I stalk to my room and throw my shoes aside. I rub my temple and I’m feeling a throbbing headache. I fall flat on my bed with arms spread on the bed as I stare at the ceiling.

My life has turned into a movie. A messed up , fucked up movie. This is just too much for me to handle. I shut my eyes and all I can see is that shootout. The guns , blood and few people that was hurt. What must have happened to Lucifer or maybe the other guys who Gray sent to look out for me. I can’t believe they get hurt just to save my ass.

I scurry to the shower and get undressed. I step under the shower and let the warm water kiss my skin. I shut my eyes and images of Gray sneak right into my head. His soothing voice and touch and I deeply wish he was here. I step out of the shower after taking my bath. I search through my bag for something to wear and i finally settle for Gray’s t-shirt. It drops at my mid thigh and hopefully it covers my panties. I lay on the bed and pull the comforter to cover my body. I’m hungry. I step out of the bed and stalk to the kitchen.

Brandon sits at the kitchen. He looks quiet just like the first time we arrived here.

” Shit..” he jolts when he sees me. ” You scared me Ariel.” He says and smiles.

” Sorry.” I laugh softly and sit opposite him.

” Are you okay? Or you’re thinking about the shootout ?”

He shrugs and shakes his head.

” I’m fine Ariel.”

” You can talk to me if you want.” I assure him. He nods and rub his temple.

” Who broke your heart ?” I ask as he turns to look at me. Brandon is cute and always so plain. But since we got here, he has been acting all broken just like me.

” He’s an asshole and maybe a coward.” He scoffs.

” What happened?”

” Mom’s homophobic. Cautioned him to give me ten feet and he cowardly did. Is that what if feels to like someone?” He inquires sadly.

” Is he your first serious date ?”

Brandon nods.” Yeah. Always wanna mess around and focus on college. Turns out I wanted more.”

I breathe out and hold his hands.” I’m sorry about that. You’re gonna find someone who worth you.”

” Thanks. Did you fight with Gray? You’ve been awkwardly sad too.”

” I’m fine Brandon. Family issues are eating me up.” I say half the truth.

” Leslie being pregnant?” I nod and tap my fingers on the countertop.

” Sort of.”

” You’re gonna talk to your parents right ?”

” Yeah. I have to. She’s broke and she needs a family.”

” That’s so sweet. I mean after everything she did to you , you still wanna help. That’s pretty cute.” He chuckles and smiles.

We talk and laugh till we retire to bed. I look at the bedside clock and it reads 12:am. I take a deep breath and shut my eyes to sleep. The bullet sounds flash through my brain as I open my eyes at once. I switch off the bedside lamp and say a silent prayer.

I barely could sleep. I turn and turn till I couldn’t take it anymore. I had to go through the texts Gray sent me. Our old conversations. This made me think of him the more and it’s aching. I toss my phone on the bed and close my eyes to sleep. Thankfully I fall asleep but it didn’t last because I jolt up at a nightmare. I push the duvet aside and get off the bed. I saunter out of my room to the kitchen and everyone’s fast asleep. I sit on the kitchen stool and pour a glass of water for myself. I’m still wondering why Cage saved me. Clearly enough, most people don’t like Gray. And he had to save me. A rattling noise snap me out of my thoughts as I look around. The next thing I heard is a silent scoff from a male voice and footsteps follows. I jump up from the stool and go to the living room. The wall clock says; 3:am.
