Sorry once again, you know what my reason is for this. But at least I went back to uploading. I think this story might be successful because when I made the first chapter, within minutes, it already got a favorite from a author that I will keep anonymous. But to that author, thank you so much. You really made my day. What will happen to Lani when she sees that her boyfriend shot her brother? How will hat affect their relationship? Stay tuned.

Loves vs Guilt

By: shimmer star 5

[Previously on Love vs Guilt(some of this will be a summary)]

JJ and Lani catched up with the person and kneeled down,"I hope you didn't hurt him that much JJ? I told you so many times to hold fire and not jumping to inclusions exc. But of course you don't listen." The two worked together and turned the body around..she gasped loudly with tears in her eyes

"...Theo..."

[continuing on with the story]

JJ couldn't think.. he couldn't breath. What in the world did he just do? Why did he shot his best friend! Like, what the frick man? He walked back and forth. He later decided to check on Lani,"Ani..I'm so sorry." Lani only shooked her head. She walked out of the hospital, telling JJ to get out because Abe will be coming soon. JJ's face went cold. No..not his boss..no. JJ was just about to brush his fingers across Theo's unconscious face when police officers and security guards roamed the room."What's wrong you guys..sirs, I mean." Two guards grabbed each arm.

They had a serious look on their faces. "You are ordered by Lani Carver to leave this room and never come back until further notice. Let's leave now." JJ couldn't believe this. Theo is his best friend, she can't just do this! But alas, he had to be on their calmer side, so he reluctantly agreed to go and left the hospital, but not without saying one more thing..quietly."Theo, I'm so sorry. Please just know and still believe in your heart that..I love you." Tears streamed down his face as he walked out of the hospital.

Lani knocked on her father's door." Coming!" Yelled Abe. The old man stalked over to the door and opened it."Lani, sweetie. What are you here? Especially this early from your shift?" Lani glanced down and said nothing for a few minutes. That caused Abe to become worried."Alana..what's wrong? Tell me right now young lady." Lani finally looked up, with tears in her eyes and down her face. They got inside and sat on the couch. After Lani was focused again, she told her news,"Dad..Theo has been shot." She waited for the reaction.

Boy she got a reaction alright. Abe was pissed. He didn't even give his daughter a answer as he grabbed his coat, wallet, keys, phone and it's charger with him. He got inside his car and sped over to the hospital and inside his son's hospital room. When he saw his son, his heart broke into pieces. A doctor came inside and told him that Theo is in a coma and the injuries are dangerously bad.

When Lani arrived, Abe's eyes were red and shiny with a mountain of tears. His face was as red as a tomatoe and red fire together. His voice erupted the room."WHOEVER SHOT MY SON WILL PAY! HIS LIFE WILL BE A LIVING HELL, I PROMISE YOU!" Lani's eyes went wide in fear of her dad... and for JJ. She wonders how he is feeling right now at the moment.

Speaking of JJ...well, he is not in the best of shape. How could he anyway? He shot his girlfriend's brother and his own girlfriend kicked him out of his bestie's room. Besides..papa carver won't be happy about this. Everyone he loves will hate him and turn on him. Even Hope. But the most saddest thing he is upset about is Theo of course." Theo..I love you, you know that. Please forgive me and live. Let me take your place to die." Tears streamed down his face as he looked out of his bedroom window.

As he looked outside. He thought of something..he thought of every look and smile he gave him and compared it to what he gives to Lani. He thinks about how his heart flutters and beats really fast whenever Theo is around, while with Lani..it's only during the love making they have. While he thought about it, he also thinks about how he will face Abe later on. He cringes at the sight.

JJ suddenly gasp. Why? He looked at a photo he and Theo took together when they were teenagers. He now knows why his heart flutters whenever Theo is around and not Lani...

"Theo..I really do love you!"

I'm sorry that this was short, but I really wanted to finish this and work on chapter three of this story. I'm trying to get ahead of schedule so that you guys can read more chapters faster. But also, I love this story so much. I hope you guys tell me your thoughts on my story so far. See ya later and happy holidays. :)
