MEGAN POV
I smiled as I walked to my locker, school was over and it was two weeks since Lin had proposed to me. All the planning was stressful but I was still content. As usual I was going to meet Lin at my locker, however when I got there I was surprised to see Charlotte standing there, she glared at me and began to approach me. I sighed and spoke before she could.
"What now?"
"We need to talk, now".
I rolled my eyes, if she started any of her usual crap I was just gonna walk away and text Lin so he'd know to meet me elsewhere.
"Well, what is it?"
"Come with me, too crowded here".
I sighed and followed her. She led me into the gym hall, I shook my head, it was empty, now what did she want.
"Okay, are you gonna tell me what's going on now".
"You're going to call of this sham marriage to Lin and split up with him".
"This crap again, I'm outta here".
I turned to leave but she grabbed my shoulder and turned me around.
"No you don't understand, I'm not asking, I'm telling you, this is what you're gonna do".
It was then I saw, to my horror she was holding a gun in her hand and she was pointing it directly at me.
LIN POV
I was looking around d confused, where was Megan, she wasn't by her locker the way she usually was. Just then I noticed armed police officers heading down the corridor, I stopped the person nearest me and asked.
"What's going on?"
"Charlotte, she's gone crazy, she's got her hands on a gun, she's holding Megan hostage in the gym".
Shit, I immediately ran towards the gym, the same direction the police were heading. One of them saw me.
"Sir, it's too dangerous, you have to leave, the other way, now".
"I can't, that's my fiancée who's being held hostage in there".
He looked at me for a moment and then spoke.
"Are you Shaoqi Lin?"
"Yeah".
"Alright then, come with us, be careful".
I followed them. We stopped outside the gym, I could see a man talking through the door which appeared to be locked. I guessed he was a negotiator, I looked through the glass pane in the door, Charlotte was standing there, a gun in her hands, she had Megan on the ground, the gun trained on her head.
"Ma'am, Just calm down, just put the gun down, you haven't done anything wrong yet, if you put the gun down, nothing has to happen".
"Shu up, I mean it, any of you take one step in here I'll kill her!"
I groaned, this was getting nowhere, and every second that passed put Megan in even greater danger from Charlotte's deteriorating mind.
I made up my mind, I knew what she wanted.
"Excuse me, let me do it, I'll have to go in and talk to her".
"But sir that's…"
The police officer that brought me here explained.
"This is the fiancée of that girl being held hostage, from what I've heard it's a lover's quarrel. The girl with the gun wants him to be with her, he's got a better chance of reasoning with her than we do".
"O-Okay, let's do it".
I nodded and nervously approached the door, it wasn't locked it was Charlotte's threat of killing Megan that had kept them from entering. I put my hand on the door handle and spoke.
"Charlotte, it's me, I'm coming in".
She didn't say anything, I opened the door and stepped in. Megan looked up at me fearfully, Charlotte's eyes were glazed, I could see her desperation. I had to be careful and do this right or I'd be putting all of us at risk.
"Charlotte, it's fine, put the gun down".
"No, I can't let this bitch steal you from me".
I shook my head.
"Look, just let Megan go, things happen, there's nothing that can be done about it, just accept it and move on, please. For all our sakes, just stop this".
She glared at me and then down at Megan, I thought I saw something move in my peripheral vision, but I stayed focused on Charlotte. There was silence for a moment and then Charlotte seemed to make up her mind.
"I should've known you'd choose this bitch over me, say goodbye".
"NO!"
She then pulled the trigger. Everything happened at once, the gun fired, Megan fell to the ground uninjured and Jamie, who had pushed Megan out of the way also fell to the ground, a bullet wound to her chest. The police ran in and quickly subdued Charlotte, I helped Megan up and we both ran over to Jamie.
"Jamie, no, just hold on".
As Megan did her best to comfort her friend I called an ambulance quickly.
End of chapter, evil cliffhanger, Jamie's life hangs in the balance, will she make it, wait and see. Hope you enjoyed this chapter, read and review please.
