Present- Day

White paints the walls in this sterile smelling room. Curtains are closed no sun peeking through. Heart monitor slows beeps from his heartbeat that's the only sound drilled into my head for the passed four hours. Breathing tubes placed in his nose to help him breathe, I haven't seen him awake for six hours, two hours doctors were stabling him without him dying. Tears stained my face I nearly watched him, my boyfriend, die right in front of me I continue to watch him sleep. You're probably wondering why I'm in the hospital with my boyfriend unconscious? Well this all started three years ago beginning with my best friend, Kendall and I walking home from school.

August 23, 2007

The sun is high in the sky for a August afternoon weather is quite cool. Children are running, playing and laughing living like there's no tomorrow. It's a pleasant site to see while walking home from school.

" How was your first day in your sophomore year?" Kendall inquires. Hands dug in his pockets attempting to keep them warm.

" Fine I guess. How was your first day as a junior?" He laughs slowing down his pace.

" You should know how my day went, it's always the same everyday and every year. I met this new guy, James he moved from Kennesaw*, Georgia. He's pretty cool, he told me that's going to try out for hockey and he's a senior too."

" What did you tell him? Mention that you're the Varsity captain?" Kendall continues to smile.

" Told him that try – outs are in two days, Wednesday and no I didn't mention that I'm captain, I'll tell him tomorrow."

Kendall and I continue our walk to our houses. His house to the left of mine we've been best friends since I moved out here ten years ago. He's a year older than me and almost like a big brother to me. Always watching out for me and over all a great person. He's the athlete in his family he has a younger sister named Katie who's ten. She's a sweetheart yet conniving little girl. I'm the only child in my family and definitely not an athlete but Kendall reminds me that I should join cross- country and track. According to him I'm a fast runner. My parents separated when I was ten so only five years ago and I live with my mother, who's hardly ever home.

I snap out of my thoughts when this man came up to Kendall and I. A hand in his jacket pocket he looks very suspicious Kendall stands his guard in case something goes wrong. The man takes out a gun and points it at us. My eyes widen panic fills my brain. I try not to panic or hyperventilate.

" If you run I will kill you both," the crazed man says. I look over at Kendall anger flashes in his eyes. Suddenly Kendall tackles the man wrestling him to get the gun away from him.. Out of no where a gun shot goes off Kendall rolls off the man. Kendall is fine but the man, dead, with a bullet hole through his lower abdomen. I watch in horror I whip out my phone and dial 911.

" 911, what's your emergency?"

" This crazed man tried to kill my friend and I then suddenly a gun shot went off. The man is bleeding but he's dead. We are on the corner of Cliffs Drive and Luna Road."

" Ok ma'am. Police will be on their way." I hang up the phone and hug Kendall with a hug. Kendall draws back I look into his eyes they changed from green to a yellow shade. I gasp in shock. What happened? Kendall blinks rapidly color changing back to green.

Police and ambulance sirens are heard people rushing outside seeing what's going on.

Paramedics retrieve the dead body and place in the ambulance. Two policemen walk over towards Kendall and I, clearly wanting to know what happened.

" What's both of your names?" The tall, burly policeman questions.

" I'm Eva and this is my friend Kendall."

" Could each of you explain what happened? Ma'am you can go first," the skinnier of the two policemen replies.

" Kendall and I were walking home from school like usual. Then that man came up to us and pointed a gun to our chest. Kendall tackles the man trying to remove the gun away form the man then a gunshot goes off. Kendall comes up and sees the man is dead. He's did it self defense sir," I beseech to the policemen. Please don't send Kendall to jail, please.

" Ok I understand now can you tell us your side of the story sir?" The tall policeman asks Kendall.

" Like Eva said we were both walking home from school then man came up to us with a gun. I tackle him to push away the gun without anyone getting hurt. The gun went off but I didn't have my finger on the trigger sir."

" Thank you both, Kendall you aren't charged with anything. It's clearly self-defense you may go."

The crowd leaves the area as Kendall and I finished with the police. The rest of the walk was silent, we stand on the side walk I give Kendall a quick hug.

"Thank you so much Kendall. I honestly was about to pass out."

" No problem Eva. I have to protect you, your like another sister to me." Kendall gives me a hug his eyes are back to yellow. That's so strange maybe it's just.

" Bye Kendall," I walk a few feet to my mailbox and continue to head inside my house.

That was just the beginning, so much more to come.

A/N: Kennesaw is a real place in Georgia btw, I have a house there and I lived here seven years ago.
