Hey guys! I know it's been a while. It's been another rough few weeks :'( Me and my bf aren't really separated, but we're not what I want to be. He's really complicated. Well, anyways, I don't want to bore you guys with my life. I just wanted to let you guys know why I haven't updated in a while. So here's chapter 10.

Gwen was starting to regain consciousness. Her vision was starting to focus. She looked and and saw Trent. He was holding a gun! Gwen gasped when she saw the gun pointing towards Duncan.

"No. Not Duncan" Gwen whispered to herself.

Trent held the gun firm in his hand. His finger rested on the trigger. He held the gun straight at Duncan's face.

"Make one wrong move that pisses me off and I'll blow your fuckin head off" said Trent.

"Trent, it doesn't have to be this way. Listen, the police are on their way. If you just give up now, they'll probably go easy on you" said Duncan.

"Do I look like some sort of pussy to you?" ask Trent.

"No. But you don't look like an idiot either. Just put the gun down and we can all go home" said Duncan.

Trent squeezed the gun tighter in his hand. His thumb pulled the hammer (I'm just guessing. Is it really called the hammer?) of the gun down. His index finger never left the trigger. His eyes shot daggers at Duncan.

"Say 'goodbye', fucker" said Trent.

Before Trent could pull the trigger, Gwen was knocking him off of his feet. The gun still went off, but missed Duncan by mere inches. The gunshot sent all the on looker running out of the school screaming.

Gwen pinned Trent on the ground with her body. She was punching him in the face over and over again. Before she knew it, Duncan was trying to pull her off. Gwen tried to fight Duncan, but he was too strong and pulled her off of Trent with ease.

"Are you crazy, Gwen? He could have killed you" said Duncan.

"Yes" said Gwen. "About you."

Gwen grabbed Duncan's neck and brought him in to a passionate kiss.

"I thought I was going to lose you" said Gwen.

Duncan smiled and brought Gwen in to a hug. Their moment was interrupted by Trent's laughter.

"How sweet" said Trent. "I hope you too enjoyed your last seconds together, but it's time for you both to die. Starting with you, girlfriend fucker."

Duncan pushed Gwen away as Trent aimed the gun at him.

"Duncan, no!" shouted Gwen.

Trent cocked the gun and fired.

Time stood still.

Before Duncan knew it, he was on the floor of the school hallway. He didn't feel any pain. He just felt numb. He looked down at him stomach. Where he was expecting to see blood and a bullet wound, he found nothing. He felt his stomach and found that he had not been shot. Then, Duncan saw a drop of blood fall to the floor. He looked up and saw Gwen clutching her stomach. A look of pain on her face.

"Gwen...no" Duncan was horrified.

He stood up and caught Gwen as she fell to the floor. Duncan looked up and Trent. Trent was just as shocked as he was.

"I can't believe you made me shoot my girlfriend" said Trent.

Instant rage filled Duncan's body. He gently laid Gwen down and then stood to face Trent.

"You son of a bitch!" Duncan shouted as he charged Trent.

He knocked Trent off of his feet. Trent lost his grip on the gun and it went flying across the hall. Duncan pinned Trent to the ground. His fist connected with Trent's jaw multiple times. Duncan had only been in a fight one other time, but it was nothing like this fight. Duncan stopped punching Trent when he heard Gwen groan. He looked back and saw her struggling to sit up.

"Gwen, stay down. Don't try to get up" said Duncan.

While Duncan was distracted, Trent was able to move out from under him. Duncan noticed, but he didn't care. He needed to get to Gwen. She needed him. He needed her. Trent didn't get far anyways. He tried to run away, but as he rounded the corner, the cops greeted him.

"Shit!" Trent shouted.

Duncan was sitting on his knees next to Gwen. Tears were streaming out of his eyes. Gwen was responsive, but she struggled to talk.

"Gwen, please, stay with me" pleaded Duncan.

"Duncan..." Gwen's voice was soft and weak. It was barely above a whisper.

"Don't try to speak, Gwen. Just relax. Help will be here soon" said Duncan.

As Duncan had promised, the police were by their side in a matter of minutes. The paramedics got Gwen on the stretcher. They allowed Duncan to get one more kiss, then they took her out of the building and into the ambulance.

There goes chapter 10. Sorry it was so short.

I loooove all of your reviews. You guys make me so happy ^-^!
