Live and Let Die
"You will. To survive. Now - the head, or the heart?" Hayley heard Elijah say. Hayley held a hand up to Aiden as they walked through the entrance of the loft. Hayley strode into the main room where she heard Elijah speak moments ago only to stop dead in her tracks. Elijah was pushed up against a wall with Gia's hand rammed through his chest.
"Elijah?" Hayley said in a slightly more worried tone than she had meant. Both Gia and Elijah looked up at her surprised. Gia immediately retracted her hand from Elijah and blushed.
Hayley did not like that. She didn't like how close her face had been to Elijah's. She also didn't like Elijah's proud little smirk that had been on his face. Hayley tried not to let her emotions show, but judging from Elijah's expression, she didn't succeed.
"We need to talk," Hayley said icily. From behind her, Aiden appeared. Gia looked as though she was going to lunge for him, but Elijah grabbed her arm to hold her back. She really did not like this bitch.
"We're not here for a fight. Just hear him out," Hayley said.
"Speak. I suggest you be succinct," Elijah said pompously. Hayley's blood was boiling by now and she was ready to rip both of their heads off.
"Please, I need your help," Aiden pleaded. Elijah said nothing for a moment, but nodded. He walked up the stairs towards Hayley with Gia hot on his heels. When Elijah reached her, he stopped and waited for Gia to pass behind him before he looked at Hayley. A small smile played on his lips before he tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and leaned towards her.
"Jealousy is not becoming on you, Hayley," he murmured before giving her one last look and striding into the other room.
Oh, he was dead.
