Fire

Caution - This Contains Violence

"You know I have to kill you right, Norman?" I asked. He said nothing as I get out of bed, putting on my shirt which Emma had folded neatly on a chair. It seemed as if Norman and I were on the same page, it was clear that neither of us are willing to let her go; we were two wolves fighting for the same piece of tasty, red meat. Willing to do anything to swallow it whole for ourselves.

We made our way to the old pool house; the ceiling was nearly 30 feet tall, surrounded by a tall metal gate. Now we stand, facing each other; trying to figure out what to do next.

Norman: "We should talk this out,"

Ray: "There's nothing to talk about,"

Norman: "Killing each other isn't going to solve anything, it'll just hurt Emma!

Ray: "Killing you will solve EVERYTHING, you're the only thing standing between Emma and me being happy,"

Norman: "Do you even hear yourself? You've gone mad!"

Ray: "You made me that way! You're a real piece of work, you know that?!"

Norman: "Coming from the guy who was sleeping with my fiance behind my back for years!"

Ray: "You forged the papers, she was never YOUR fiance, she was mine! Fuck you, dork! You came to my house and lied to me! You gave me a half-assed apology about having the king pair you and Emma together but that never happened did it Norman?!

Norman: *Shrugs head and looks away,"

Ray: *Chuckles circling him like a shark* "Yeah, that's right. I bet you really did beg the king on your knees to have the pairing changed but he rejected it. Even he knew someones as spineless as you could never be a better man than me!"

Norman: "Shut up,"

Ray: "You had to of waited weeks, checking early every day for Emma and me to get mail, and steal it so you could change it yourself. You must have really thought that one out, huh? You're a weak, spineless, short ass bitch with no bitch,"

Norman shoved me and I fell to the ground, oh, so he wants to die, "Shut up, what the hell do you know? Do you know how hard it was for me? You don't understand how much I love her, I could have been happy just being by her side as her friend for the rest of my life… B-But the thought of her being with someone else…" he yelled shaking.

I got up punching Norman and a tooth slid across the room. "Piss off! I don't want to hear your sorry ass excuse. I started punching him; then once he was down I walked the other side of the room, grabbing a full tank of gasoline from the heater and dragging it back to Norman who pant as he struggled to breathe. 4 of his ribs broken, his lung nearly collapsed.

"I told you, I have to kill you, you have to die," I whisper to him. "Norman!" Emma screamed from the other side of the gate.

Within a second, I took the gate key from my pocket and locked the door, "Go away, Emma!" I commanded lifting Norman by the collar of his shirt. His face bloody and bruised, he coughed and gasped for air and Emma started to panic.

She ran to try to break the lock, "Ray, don't hurt him!" she yelled horrified, shaking the door noob; I frowned. "What the hell are you worried about him, this is all his fault!" I yelled. Heartburn flooded my chest as jealousy sent me in a frantic rage.

Emma: "Please Ray, let him go!"

Ray: *Drops Norman and his head hit the hard floor, he rolled onto his back as he groaned in pain.*

Norman: "E-Emma,"

Ray: "You love him, don't you; Emma?"

Emma: "I-I! I love you both, I don't want anyone to get hurt!"

Ray: "..."

Emma: "A-at first, it was only you that I loved, but after pretending to be with Norman so long… I grew to love him too. I know that I want to be with you, Ray; but I don't want Norman to be hurt. I want the two of you to be happy, I just want the three of us to be happy, I'm sorry!"

Norman: " I Love you, Emma,"

Ray: "That's not what I wanted to hear, Emma,"

I cocked an eyebrow and smiled painfully at Emma, then shrugged my head as I let out an unnerving chuckle; pouring gasoline on to Norman as he lay lifeless on the ground. "Ray!" she screamed pulling anxiously at the gate. I sigh well Norman coughed as gasoline covered his face, I threw my leg back and kicked him unconscious and Emma screamed pounding and pulling at the gate. I look at her, face red; eyes swollen as she cry helplessly- my chest burned.

I hated seeing her like that, "Ray!" she cried as I use the last of my strength to lift the can of gasoline and pour the remaining contents on myself, her cries of distress were almost too much to bear. "Awe, Emma ~ what a look you've got on your face-" I mutter pressing the button on the gate lock; the loud screech of gate lifting made me shutter because of the beating pain in my head. Emma started to run toward us but froze as I took out a match, "Ray, please," she begged falling to her knees, shaking in pure terror.

I smiled. Norman coughed and groaned in pain, "Norman, he needs medical help; it's not too late for you to stop this!" she cried. I lit the match, "You got greedy. Emma." I growled feeling myself tearing up.

Bliss, love, anxiety, hate; everything I had felt had build up - I was a stick of dynamite surrounded by flames. Too angry, too hurt to resist meeting my breaking point. "Ray!" she begged stepping two feet closer. "You can only have one of us," I smiled dropping the match.

Like wildfire, the flames devoured every trace of gasoline it could touch; engulfing Norman and I in flames. I yelled in pain and Norman cried as the bright, red flames violently awoke him. Emma screamed and ran toward us - Who will you save, Emma?
