She didn't mean it and right now she wished she could take it all back.
She was just angry.
It wasn't his fault that they lost the cure.
He had the cure, but the guy had a gun on her.
He decided that she was worth more than the cure and jumped in front of the bullet. Dropping the cure in the process.
The blue liquid's container smashed on impact and her eyes filled with rage.
They finished off the enemies but then she turned on him.
Flashback
"Max. I'm sorry" Alec said while groaning at the pain in his shoulder where the bullet had lodged itself.
"Save it Alec! This was mine and Logan's only chance and you ruined it! I'll never forgive you for this Alec! I Hate you!" She yelled, angrily. Her words like venom; eating at Alec's heart.
End Flashback.
He was too hurt to notice Lydecker behind him.
She was too angry to notice him either.
Until the gunshot rang out.
Lydecker ran.
And Max was left with Alec's body in her arms.
His breathing raspy.
Blood pouring from the wound. Soaking both their clothes. Tarnishing the floor.
A sight that will never be removed from her mind.
His last words were an apology.
Then his breathing stopped…
…and his pulse faded.
His soul being cruelly torn from its body.
And she was left alone.
The funeral was 4 days later.
She didn't go.
Well, not exactly.
She watched from her window.
Watched as people mourned.
Watched as they lowered his casket into the ground.
Watched as the people dispersed.
Then she headed out.
And stared at the gravestone.
