I hear the door open a few minutes later and then footsteps coming into the bedroom.
"Hey Ashy-"

My eyes widen in horror.

No..

———————————————————————————————

"Hello my dear Serena, it's so nice I surprised you... With fear!"
My eyes widen even more as he takes long, slow steps towards me, his knife firmly locked in his palm.
"Now we can do this the easy way, or the hard way."
I gulp and nod my head gently.
"You can either come with me easily and you won't be harmed. Or you can be a bitch and I'll have to drag your little body there instead. Pick."
I take a shaky step towards him and he laughs, his eyes darkening with insanity.
"Good choice bitch."
He grabs my wrist forcefully and pulls me outside, where I see a smear of blood along the wooden wall.
"Y-you didn't stab him.. d-did you..?"
I tremble, tears forming in my eyes.
"Oh no. Only a few pokes a prods. He's alive... Maybe."
He cackles, his voice echoing through my ears.

Ash might be dead..
He might be gone forever..
The one I love..

Gone..

He turns around, pinning me to a random tree behind me.
"See you on the other side bitch!"

All I see is his fist coming towards me before everything fades into darkness.

"Wakey wakey little bitch!"
He cackles as he roughly grabs my hair, a loud cry leaving my lips with it as I wake up sharply.
"Oh be quiet it's only a little tug. It's not like I want to pull your hair out!"
He laughs once again, throwing me into the wall.

I let out a shaky breath as my vision blurs.

I'm going to die today..

"So.. what should we do to you first.. oh I know! The same punishment as your weakling little boyfriend got!"
He pulls out a long sharp knife and walks over to me, bringing it to my neck.
"Any last words Serena? Or are you too scared to say anything to me?"
I gulp and look into his eyes.

They used to be kinda nice actually.. his blue eyes.. I used to love those eyes..

It's strange how people can change so easily.
And how differently you see a person after a breakup, or a fight.

Like how differently I now see the boy in front of me..

My murderer.

"C-can I see Ash.. p-please.. j-just so I can tell him something before you kill me.."
He huffs and grabs me by the neck, pulling me over into another room where I see Ash on the floor, holding his stomach.
"A-Ash!"
I weakly croak out, stumbling towards him and collapsing by his side, bringing him into a hug.
"S-Serena.."
He whispers, pulling me into his chest gently.

Blood soaked most of his t-shirt, and I could already see bruises forming on his arms.
"Oh Ash.. w-what has he done to you.." "It doesn't matter what he's done to me cupcake. As long as you're safe."
I gulp as guilt engulfs me.
"Come on bitch hurry up!"
I hear Calem shout as I stand up.
"I love you Ash. P-please always remember me.. p-promise me that.. please.."
I sob, holding his hand tightly.
"You're not leaving me Serena. Don't do this. Don't let him win."
I gently hold his face in my hands, tears running down my face.
"It's ok Ash. If I do this. It'll all be over. You'll be safe again. You don't ever have to worry about any of this ever again. You can live happily again." "No Serena, I can't live happily. Not without you in my life. You're my everything. I'm not losing you like this."
I take a shaky breath and try to pull away from Ash's hand, but he just grips on tighter, pulling me into a hug.
"You're not leaving me. If we die we die together Serena. You are not going to lose this. We will win. Together. For the final time."
I look up into the urban eyes I adore and softly smile, a small tear falling down my cheek.
"Yeah. Let's do this. Together."
