Frank paced up and down the library brandishing the gun in the air as if he wanted to show off. He didn't want us to forget what he had in his hand, what damage he could with it. He shot a bullet at the library window to prove it.
"Please Frank I will do anything you want just let Julie go" i begged.
Frank said nothing. I almost laughed because this has never happened before: Frank was speechless for once and all it took was for me to beg. Well he will not hear it again. What is he trying to prove? Is he desperately trying to win me over or something? If he is then he is going about in completely the wrong way. I would rather stick pins in my eyes and set myself on fire than be Frank's girlfriend for even a minute.
He was beginning to really scare me and i don't scare easy, i would never admit that to my friends let alone Frank. I was scared for my friends but especially Julie her asthma was just beginning to be managable and this, this could ruin it for her. Her breathing was getting faster, her asthma taking hold. I hope its not an attack. I don't want her to suffer because of me and definitely not because of him.
Frank leapt at me and dragged me up from the floor, forcing me against the wall. I hit my head but i didn't want to show any sign of weakness it would only give Frank a big ego. "I love you, i will always love you and you love me"
Now he sounds lovesick. I laughed. It sounded so stupid. Never have i ever, and never will i ever love Frank. I don't whether i should laugh or be horrified about the idea of us two being together. It sounded ridiculous. A dream of Frank's which will never came true, not as long as i live. If he loved me then why is he doing this? Why would he want to hurt me and my friends if he is in love with me? Wouldn't he want to keep me safe and protect me if he truly love me?
"Sorry Frank but i have never liked you."
Not even when we were both in the black dragons. I put up with him because i had to, not because i wanted to. Everybody thought that i was being mean but i was only being honest. It was better than lying. Lying only brings chaos, hurt, pain and hatred.
I think i hit a nerve, okay, maybe that wasn't the smartest thing to say to Frank especially when he is already wound up and he is holding a gun which he proved had real bullets in it. I have never ever seen Frank's mood change that fast. And not to this level before. He looked and was acting like a deranged psychotic killer. Frank was scaring me.
Before i realised what was happening he pressed the gun up hard against my thigh and pressed the trigger...
A hot burning pain like flames slapping me shot up my leg. It felt like i was on fire. The agony was too much and my blood smelt so strong. It was like i was paralysed, in shock. My eyes were wide open, stuck. In shock.
Julie was kneeling in front of me pressing her hands into my leg to stop the bleeding. She was talking but it was like i was death or she was mute, i couldn't hear anything. She disappeared from my sight.
This pain is the worst pain i have ever felt in my life. Please somebody make it stop. Please...
It was cold. Too cold. But i was hot, why am i hot when the room is cold? Is my body shutting down? Is my body giving up? I can't give up if that is the case i had to fight i have to stay alive for Julie and Donna.
