P.O.V- Quinn
I still remember the night my world shattered into a million pieces.
"Hey, nice dress today" my friend June slurs, she's was on her 5th shot of tequila, and by the looks of it- she probably doesn't even know who I am.
"Thanks" I mutter, reached into her purse, took out the keys, and patted her gently on the shoulder.
"Quinn" I turn and found myself looking at brown eyes, and a messy brown haired boy, is a pink tie and a white shirt
"Alexander" my heart does a little flip, and I flash him a small smile, he returns my smile- his small and quick.
"May I have this dance?" he asks, voice shaking, I nod and we make our way to the center of the room, swaying slowly.
"You're stunning tonight" Alexander says, he leans in, and our lips touch- the buzz between our lips made me dizzy, and giddy. We pull away at the same time, and he pulls out a small box
"for you" he whispers "happy 1 year anniversary" a laugh escapes through my lips,
"thank you, this wasn't-" he interrupts me with a kiss, and I forget the world. It felt like ages before we pulled apart.
"I love you so mu-" I begin but the room explodes around us, and the ground beneath us gives away- I feel myself falling, a blazing hot blast wrapped around me, and I felt suspended in air.
"Alexander!" I scream, but with the loud rumble my voice was drowned out. My bones felt hollow, and weightless, and then I land on my leg. I scream, as my bone cracks and a white hot blast of pain jolts up my leg- I nearly pass out on the ground.
"Alexander?" a lump of pressure is building up in my throat, and my eyes start to water, "Alex!" I scream, the tears are flowing, and I whimper as I slowly pull myself up using the rubble. When I got up another flare of pain crawls up my leg, I hop toward the door, and I see June, and Laurel on the ground- their motionless bodies sprawled on the ground. As I make my way to the door, I trip over a chunk of gravel- and I go sprawling onto the floor. I gasp as my wrist cracks, and tears start forming at the edge of my eyes. The dress I was wearing was bloody, dirty, and torn- I was missing a shoe, but the gift Alexander had given me was still clutched tightly in my hand. I stumble through the rubble, sobbing and stifling my screams at the stabbing pain. I stumble over a hand, and almost lost my balance. I look down, and I see a body- a boy, he was wearing a pink tie, and a white shirt stained with blood. His messy brown hair matted down by blood,
"Alex?" I try to lower myself gently but I just fall, I suck in air as the pain attacks me again. I shake him, and he weakly opens his eyes
"Quinn" he smiles, "hey, we're gonna be okay, don't you cry, I'll be fine" he tries to wipe away my tears, but ends up smearing blood on my face.
"Oh Alexander" I look at the rubble near him, his leg was stuck under a huge block, and his arm arm was bent awkwardly. I used his tie to wipe away the blood on his face, and tore a strip from my dress and wrapped it around his head
"Quinn, you were so beautiful tonight- I wish I had the courage to ask you to be my girl friend earlier" his voice was soft and weak. My tears blur my vision
"Alex, stop- you're not dying today. We've only had 1 year!" I choke on my own words, and Alex just smiles. His breath was coming in short bursts, and he coughed up blood,
"Quinn, may I have a kiss before I got?" his eyes are filling with tears, and I can hear the sirens in the distance,
"Yes Alex, my love" I whisper, and planted a small kiss on his face, Alex smiles and he looks at my face with such intensity- almost as if he wanted to forever engrave my face in his mind.
"Quinn, I lo-" he shudders, and his eyes roll back
"No, Alex!" I check for a heartbeat, it was weak- but he wasn't breathing. I start CPR, and I breath into his mouth
"Please Alex, stay with me!" I'm sobbing and screaming "Stay for me" I desperately pound on his chest, and grabbed his hand- he was still squeezing back
"Please" I sob into his bloody shirt, his grip slackens, and his eyes glaze over. I watch him slip away, and I lost it.
I hope you enjoyed the back to story Quinn, I wanted to create a character that was created on pain and misery, and become a hero- instead of a villain. :) Hope you enjoyed it
