The wind kissed my skin in such intense manner , jolting me back to consciousness. It was all blurry and airy at first , I couldn't recall what had taken place or what hadn't.
"He should be up by now " I heard words I couldn't quite get who the speaker was.
"Dan" I heard another shout out my name but with a weak tone , full of distress.
"Where was I " I asked myself, wishing my body could speak few words at the moment.
"Darlin, seems you're now awake" I could recognise that voice , it was or was it not?.
While still questioning, my visions got cleared out and I could see the face before me , one I wished I would never had seen, for a long time.
"Mason , what's happening here?" I asked in hopes of receiving an answer, but got no response.
Then it all came rushing back in , all at one , the series of events, that took place a while ago or so. I could finally recognise my surroundings and those that surrounded me.
"Micheal, where is Micheal? " I mumbled in confusion , questioning myself all at once , scampering to see , if he was close by.
My mind could finally be at rest, when my eyes cut hold of him, laying on the floor, tied up behind me.
"Are you alright?" I asked when I got to him.
He was soaked in liquid, with a gag covering his mouth. I pulled it out, getting his mouth free. I saw pain and anguish present in his eyes, I saw he was in great distress and went forth to untie the ropes he had on.
"Are you OK?" Micheal asked me with a concerned look on his face.
"Presetly think about yourself and the condition, you're in at the moment "
"Don't worry about me , how are you doing ? did Mason harm you in any way "
"How could one be so caring and loving at same time, people truly differ alot in life" I thought to myself
"Don't worry about me , I'm fine. Its you I'm worried about , you are looking bad "
"It was nothing bad , just got a gun smacked against my head , I'm fine trust me"
"Are you...."
"Enough of the chitchat, I think it's time, we get down to business " Mason spoke out of the blue
"Mason what's all this , why did you bring us at the middle of nowhere, why can't you just let me be ?" I fired in anger
"It's not nowhere , it's a hill or are your visions not cleared yet and mind you , you're mine , so why should I let go of you ?"
"Because i don't have an atom of love for you. Is that enough or should I list more?"
"No need darling, cause no matter what you say , I ain't going away, infact that wouldn't be possible now"
"Why is that?" Micheal asked
"Cause his mine and your fiance here just got me into a load of Shit by dailing a number he never should at a time he shouldn't have"
"So what's the deal ? , what should we do to be able to get out of this situation?" Micheal questioned
"Mmh , deal?"
"Cut to the chase already "
"The chase " he scoffs "there isn't any dear friend ".
I could feel the heat between those two , the anger crossing both hearts
"Mason enough already, just let me be for christ sakes , I don't want to be with you anymore "
"You don't want to ?, when was it ever a choice " Mason laughed like a sycophantic patient "Seems you really lost a memory or two , if not you would have recalled that the only way of calling it quite for both of us would only be death"
"You're crazy Mason, you need help, you weren't always like this " Micheal spoke out
"I'm crazy about the person you snatched from me and I have always been this way , so shut up!"
"You need help Mason "
"I said I don't, so shut the fu*k up " Mason shouted pointing a pistol towards Micheal
He soon laughed , walked towards me and bent down , cupping my face in his hands
"As handsome as always , you never age and that something I love about you , just end all this now , just say I love you and we're done here "
"I love you Mason, but not as a love interest, only as a human and a helper"
"Fu*k" he cursed under his breath slapping me across the face
"I have loved you and only you , I made you my muse and I gave you my everything, yet you reject me. I can't say I regret ever loving you cause that would be a lie, maybe I should give you one last thing and take one from you too"
"What are you talking about?"
"Maybe I should take your life and give you mine, then we can finally be one in death never to separate "
"You're delusional Mason, stop this nonsense this minute!" Micheal screamed
Mason ignored him and kept on talking to me
"I promised no to ever hurt you , so I won't be the one to take your life but I wouldn't let any cheap person take it either "
"What are you saying?, this is madness, stop it now " I said to Mason
He looked up at me with tears filled eyes coloured in red , as if in pain and also pleading
"Too late to stop now " he stood up walking away from me "remove it"
I watched one of the men standing around us remove his mask , he looked familiar at first until I realised who it was. Another face I never wanted to see.
"Dad"
"Hello son"
"How low could you stoop for money "
"Anything for the money darlin, maybe including killing your mum and siblings "
"You ass hole, son of a bitch "
"Stop talking " he raised a gun towards me
"Are you scared of the name you psycho, pull it if you could devil's.." And the gun went off
For a slit second I thought I was gone until someone fell on me , I opened my eyes to see who it was
"Micheal " I saw blood on his stomach region
"You son of a bitch " I took the gun which Mason was holding in front of me , off his hands and shoot at my dad three times and wanted him scoff out blood as his body fell to the floor.
I turned to Mason pointing the gun at him and his men in turned raised there's towards me
"You see what you have caused , you see what you have caused you devil , you caused me different kinds of pain all my life and I am done with it now "
"Dan , Michael's going to die soon and we could live happily from now on " he said coming close to me
"Don't come close to me " I said pushing backwards "I could never ever be with you Mason even in death"
"We could walk things..."
"I said don't come close to me " I screamed pulling the trigger by mistake, hitting him exactly on his chest.
"Mason " I moved forward in shock , letting go of the gun to hit the floor, just then I heard a shot and felt pain cross through my body
"Dan !" I heard Micheal scream my name
I touched my stomach with my fingers and raised them up to see blood stains , another shot was heard , this time I felt the impact on my chest forcing me to move backwards. I felt myself falling off as my feet no longer found ground to step on.
Just in that moment, I cut a glimpse of Mason smiling and slowly bowing his head and Micheal cut hold of me .
"I am sorry " I managed to say to him of all the words I tried to tell him.
I was sorry for causing him pain and death, I was sorry for making him live life so soon.
"Don't die yet , we have to get married and take care of kelvin " he said making me smile
"I'm sorry " I said again , this time to kelvin who would miss both his father and his care taker
Another shot was fired by Mason's men at Micheal and my hands were almost slipping through.
"Maybe we should die now , together " Micheal whispered with blood in this mouth
I smiled again "still trying to flirt Micheal " I soliloquized
Off we went , down the hill , together, slowly falling, with thoughts of kelvin clouding my mind.
I remember how happy he was seeing me for the first time , his joy when he heard we were then dating and his gladness when he looked at my engagement ring. I was wondering how much he would cry and how much he would now hate me.
"I am sorry kelvin" I said to myself turning towards Micheal, he was already gone "I'm sorry too"
I felt the impact of the floor and in seconds lost consciousness and I awoke.
