The Shame of Knowing
My head pounded as he forcefully punched at me. I tried to fight back, but he was so much bigger than me, and my punches were just little flicks to him. I hit him in the stomach a couple times, causing him to stumble back. But a few punches weren't going to do it.
I forgot what we were fighting about. I don't even think that we were fighting about anything. We just had so much negative energy towards each other; one word could set us off. I don't know why I kept getting myself in these situations. I guess it was easier to fight with him, then to actually ignore him.
My thinking was harshly interrupted by a swift kick to my ribs. I quickly looked at my watch and noticed the time. "Shit!" I thought. "Clare should be here any minute." I wiped the blood from my split lip as Fitz charged toward me. I mustered up all my strength and pushed him. Hard. From the time I heard his head crack against the ground, everything started going in slow motion.
It took me a second to register what just happened. And then I heard my voice being called. "Eli!" it screamed. I started to think I was hallucinating until I saw her pale face shadowed with horror. "What the hell happened?" she screamed now looking down at Fitz. She quickly rummaged through her purse pulling out her cell phone. "What are you doing?" I spit out now shaking. "I'm calling an ambulance, he's losing blood from his head!" she screamed. I quickly ran up to her and closed the cell phone.
She looked up at me in disbelief. "You can't!" "They know about Fitz and me fighting!" "We have a record!" "They're going to think I killed him!" I screamed now pacing. She ran over to Fitz and searched for a pulse. She looked up at me, crying and breathing heavily. "Clare, calm down everything is going to be fine." I soothed. "No, it's not!" "He's d- dead!" she screamed. "Come on, help me" I said now grabbing Fitz's feet. "What do you want me to do?" she sobbed. "Help me hide the body," I said now dragging Fitz's carcass in the woods.
