October runs to the open window, peeks inside and climbs back in. She carefully sits behind the sofa so when Peyton walked to the front door, she wouldn't be able to catch a glimpse of October. October tried to breathe slowly and calmly so no attention would be brought upon her.
Lucas began to reluctantly stand up to go knock on the door, deciding to not argue against October's "master mind" plan, when he saw Matt's truck coming down the road. He froze and quickly ran to the window where October had just jumped into. He couldn't yell for her because then Peyton would hear....so he hid behind the hedge to see what Matt was going to do. He pulled out his cell and dialed 911 whispered Peyton's address and then pleaded that they would come as fast as they could to help. He still refused to believe this was happening. Peyton wouldn't do this, this had to be a disunderstanding. It just couldn't be real, that's why he hadn't taken action, it just wasn't real. Deep down he knew it was happening though, but it hurt. Ppeyton was the woman he had felt something for and who he had tried to make things work with for over a decade. He didn't understand how it could've came to this. He just didn't want to believe that Peyton was as bad as everyone had made her out to be.
Inside, October heard a knock on the front door. She assumed it was Lucas, instead Matt inside. She gulped. Fuck, now what? October froze as she watched Matt harshly kick Brooke in the leg.
"She"s still out pretty good, heh heh heh"
"'Where did you go?" Peyton asks.
"'To get this," Matt replies as he pulls out his sawed off shotgun.
A burst of adrenaline shot through October. She had a feeling that someone wasn't going to make it out alive, and her feelings were almost always right. She knew she had to do something, she wouldn't jsut sit here behind the sofa and watch her mom get murdered. She, as quietly as she could, crawled into the next room to try and think of something to do. The next room was really dark, with only a little sunlight coming in. There were records everywhere lining the walls. There were pictures of Peyton and most of all multiple pictures of Lucas. Words were painted all over the wall. All of then were about Lucas, getting Lucas back and getting revenge on Brooke. October began backing up, she really wanted out of this freakshow room. A stack of records fell over and smashed against the floor. October flinched. Sshe quickly flung herself into the doorway to the kitchen and bgean making her way back to where Brooke was lying unconscious. October could hear Matt yelling in the room where the records had fallen over. October could see Lucas peek into the kitchen window. She mouthed "HELP" to him as Matt burst into the kichen. He quickly ran over and grabbed October by the hair and dragged her viciously to the hallway.
"Coming for your mom? Well here you go. Think you could pull one over on us? Nice try, I guess you will get what you want though. You and your om will still be together. You'll just both be dead. You shoudl've just left well enough alone. You should've statyed where you came from, and left your dad and Peyton happy."
Outside the cops had surrounded the house. They burst into the front door and Matt began open fire. October was shoved to the ground and felt pain everywhere. She couldn't stand. It hurt to breathe. She could see Lucas running into the hallway and punching Matt to the ground. The cops then forced the gun from his hand and put him into handcuffs while Peyton stood there trying to look shocked.
"I don't know what happened! Thank god you're here!" Peyton said as she looked around with her giant bug eyes. Fake tears began falling down his face.
"She was here the whole time!" October yelled, "She's the reason this is happening, you have to take her too! It's all her fault."
"Honey what are you tlaking about? Your just delusional from the gun shot wound. Everything's going to be okay," Peyton said trying to fake a weak smile. October could see the grin Peyton was holding back.
"Fuck you bitch, you try to kill my mom because you're jealous she's with Lucas and not you, you deserve to be in jail. You may not have pulled the trigger physically but you were the one who did it," October said looking at Peyton right in the eye and then everything went black.
