WE’LL GET THROUGH THIS, TOGETHER (66)
“Is what she’s saying the truth?” I assumed that question was directed toward George, the man shrugged and looked away, the girl, however, looked like she had a few colorful words to add. I watched as she parted her lips to speak but Tyler beat her to it.
“How long have you known about this?” He asked in a calm tone.“Two days ago.” She admitted casually as she tucked a strand of her perfect dark hair behind her ear, Tyler sighed as he glanced between them.“This was not the right place to do this.” He informed them.“I don’t think there will ever be a right place to demand that this child stop meddling in my life and doing little jobs for his dad how about you try and respect that coat you talk about.” George looked like he was going to let out a tornado but Tyler boomed and successfully stopped him.“And you?” I was painfully reminded of the fact that I was in the same space with then when I heard that, I perked up at her and oRelated chapters
FIRE CRACKER SCENT OF IRON (67)
Therapy sucks.Any form of it, it’s not fun, it’s not entertaining. The only thing that is it — is extremely useful because nothing felt better than walking on my two feet for the first time in three months.“Another step forward, there you go, Miss Hasty.” Tyler encouraged me as I took tentative steps toward him, It was the first time in two weeks that I would be walking without crutches or leg braces or the accursed wheelchair.“I’m doing it Tyler, I’m doing it.” My voice had wavered as I spoke with watery eyes. Tyler nodded and smiled. That had been Five days, Fifteen hours, Thirty minutes, and forty-five seconds ago. We had just arrived at my house and I was sitting in the car with an overwhelming feeling bubbling inside of me. Tyler squeezed my hand and reassured me with a grin. I nodded and could feel my wavy hair bounce a bit.“Are you ready?” Tyler had asked after a while. It was funny how I had been waiting for this moment for the past five months that I had been stuck in tha
FIRE CRACKER SOMEONE I LOVED (68)
I couldn't breathe.It felt like my entire world stopped. It was funny how countless times I had begged the world to stop for me, now it had finally stopped and it felt like I was frozen, I felt my limbs ache and my heart clenched and for a minute I forgot that it was the organ I used to breathe because it felt like my lungs had walked out on me.I could vaguely hear Tyler yelling but I couldn't move, the entire scene was painfully familiar to me. The scent of iron, the trail of blood, my inability to move or react, the isolated environment, the chills down my skin, and how the hairs on my skin rose and I knew it wasn't out of fear,Dread trailed down the edges of my spine and I felt my legs buckle beneath me, I fell right into thick red blood. My eyes traced where Charlotte had been but she wasn't there anymore and I could still hear the drowned-out voices of Cole and some other people I did recognize. I didn't know how long I had been here, but I also didn't care.I wanted to move. T
FIRE CRACKER I CAN’T SAVE EVERYONE (69)
I slowly nodded my head in confirmation and watched Leonardo’s hands smack before his sides. His eyes filled with fresh tears and I wiped them away and let out a fresh breath.“Why is all of this happening? Charlotte… now you?” He questioned as a tear rolled down his cheek, I swallowed and pulled him into a hug.“What have we ever done to anyone?” His voice cracked and I held him tighter. These were questions I had asked myself over and over again and I had even asked Charlotte at a point.I could never understand why bad things happen to good people, people who wished no harm to anyone. People who just wanted to be happy. I retrieved the paper from his hands and scribbled on it. Leonardo stared at it for a while before he shook his head continuously.‘I won’t let you drive in this state I scribbled again and gave him a look that screamed ‘don’t test me.’ I and Leonardo had warmed up to each other over the past month when he received the news of his parent’s death. Apparently, they h
FIRE CRACKER RESPONSE (70)
“—She can’t speak?” I drowned out Tyler’s words and fell unto a wall I hadn’t noticed. A random tear rolled down my cheeks and I bit down on my blistered lips to stop the sob that was threatening to escape my throat.“Danielle? Are you alright?” Tyler questioned and the scent of his cologne filled my nostril. My breath hitched and I struggle to focus my vision on him even though I could see doubles. I groaned and slide right into his arms instead of the ground.I wasn’t losing consciousness. Not in the least, but for some reason, it felt like I was neither conscious nor unconscious, and the more I tried to unravel it, the more I felt entangled. My airways tightened and my feet dug harder into the ground, I dug my fingers into my palm but I couldn’t feel any pressure.Dread filled me and I felt my insides twist in horror, my limbs felt like they were being weighed down by a considerably dangerous amount of bricks and my eyes struggled to stay open while the pressure on my chest increase
FIRE CRACKER DEAD ENDS (71)
"Coffee?" I heard Tyler ask. He had been holding a cup of coffee in front of me for a while now, I blinked. "I made it just the way you like it." He added.I shook my head casually and ran my hands through my hair. "Everything is going to be fine." Tyler comforted me in a low tone, I would have let out a sarcastic laugh and told him just how much everything would not be fine if I hadn't lost my voice.He didn't say anything after that, We simply stood by the lobby while Leonardo sat down in the waiting room. I marched over to the lobby willingly, my legs had started doing those things they always do; Walking without my permission."The detective we hired gave me a response tonight." My eyes snapped up at Tyler and he stared back at me with heavy dull blue orbs. I felt guilt knock at the door of my heart and I could not help but feel that all of this was in one way or another my fault."He found Mathias's apartment," My eyes widened and I licked my lips as I stared at him in expectation
FIRE CRACKER THIS IS CRAZY (72)
I ran my hands through my hair for the millionth time and tapped my foot against the ground. The revelation concerning Alice and Mathias was what led us to search for him and now, He was dead.I wasn’t even sure that Rye knew he was dead and the fact that he died three years ago, sent chills down my spine, everything, every single event that lead right to Alice concerning my father’s death, Happened three years ago when he was m murdered.I wondered if it had all been related, I felt like I was missing something, something very important but I couldn’t wrap my head around what it was. “Do you want to sit?” Tyler asked. I shook my head and bit down on my lip.“I was thinking…” He began and I glanced at him. “Shouldn’t we see a doctor about your voice? It could be serious.” He whispered before he tore his gaze from me. Ever since the incident with Charlotte, it felt like he had been walking on eggshells around me and I had no clue why.Tyler sighed loudly and I perked up at that, He re
FIRE CRACKER CHARLOTTE? (73)
"Hm, There's nothing wrong with your vocals, This is probably because of the shock," George informed Tyler and me as he looked me over again, His stethoscope rested on his neck and most of his weight was on his table."Is there anything we can do to you know...Fix it?" Tyler asked calmly. I rolled my eyes and was about to say something along the lines of 'You can't just fix things like these but then I mentally groaned when I recalled that I could not speak"I could refer you to a specialist." George offered as he stood straight and walked over to his chair, We had spent theLast two hours in his office checking out my vocals and wondering what or when something went wrong. Tyler seemed to be panicking and I had a lot more things to be worried about,"I think —" I sent Tyler a glare and he almost threw his head back in a groan, His shoulders were stiff as he stared into my eyes, almost as if he wanted me to give in and see the specialist but my demeanor was stronger than that.I glance
FIRE CRACKER LEONARDO? (74)
"Who are you?!" Her hoarse voice boomed and I tried to pull away but her nails just dug into me. Charlotte's voice seems to attract the attention of Tyler and George because, in no time, both men were around us, Tyler was trying to get her to leave my arm while Goerge worked on giving her a sedative.She didn't budge though, red filled her eyes and for a moment there I felt hatred from a woman who had shown me nothing but love, I had never seen this side of Charlotte and I was very interested in knowing what was wrong."She sent you here to Kill me, didn't she?!" She yelled and tightened her grip on my wrist if that was even possible at this point, The hospital walls felt like they were closing in on me, and I wanted to do was wake up from this nightmare, but of course, that did not happen."Where is the little girl? Huh? What did that witch do with the little girl?!" She boomed. I shut my eyes as Tyler tried to pull my hand away from her and to be honest the whole scene was pathetic.
