The Devil With A Shotgun (Part 12) 

One Shot #31 (Cont.) 

Maui's POV

 I'm the biggest piece of shit on the face of the Earth. I can't believe I just broke Moana's heart like that. Did I want to? Absolutely not. What is the right decision in the long run? I believe so. I didn't break her heart to purposely hurt her, I did it so I could protect her from the horrible life she'd have with me. I'm going to end up in jail again eventually. I can't have Moana end up there with me. I refuse to allow her to sacrifice her future for me. As much as it pains me, letting her go was the best thing I could do. Making her hate me was also the easiest way to help her forget about me. 

   To be honest, I'm thinking of just turning myself in and doing the time. I'm tried of living a life of being on the run. It's not as exciting as you might think. Plus, I deserve to pay for my actions. I grab my car keys from my kitchen counter, get in my car, and drive to the Seattle county jail. When I get there, the police surround me instantly. "I come in peace. I'm done running. I'm ready to do the time." They nod and shove me into the jail. One officer throws jail clothes at me. It happens to be a cringeworthy orange jumpsuit. It's so ugly. I make sound of disgust but put it on anyway. I then get shoved into a jail cell. The guard snickers at me evilly. "Did you really think you were going to escape from the law punk? Well guess what, you get to spend the next five years here. What do you think of that?" I plop down on the ground and ignore him.

      I hear his mocking laugh echo all the way down the hallway. Moana if you're still out there, please stay safe and don't try to find me. 

Moana's POV

I've been sitting around my dorm room for hours wondering what went wrong. Maui and I dated for three months without a single fight and then all of the sudden he shuts me out and walks away. As much as Maui telling me he never loved me hurts, I don't believe that's entirely true. I have a feeling that deep down, he did what he did to spare me of ending up in jail with him. I hope he didn't turn himself in. If he did, I'm going to find a way to bail him out.

     I love him so much. I need to be with him. I'll do whatever it takes to be with him, even if it means I end up in jail myself. I don't care about my future unless he's in it with me.
