Hey guys, you probably hate me for just updating now but I swear I'm innocent. You should all blame SCHOOL!!! She's the one who delayed me from updating sooner.

*people boo and throw rotten tomatoes at school*

Take that school! 😏 Yvonne: 1 School: 0

*****************************

Daisy

You know that feeling where it seems like you don't have the ability to draw air into your lungs anymore? When you feel as if time just stopped and nothing is moving? It seems like in that frozen second, you've suddenly aged a hundred years as a result of disbelief in what just happened? If yes, multiply that by a thousand and that was exactly what I was feeling right now.

The echo of the gunshot kept resounding in my ears. Oddly, I don't feel any pain. I look down at my chest expecting to see myself bleeding to death but the sight that meets my eyes when I look down was so much worse.

My mother was on the floor coughing out blood clutching her stomach that was bleeding profusely.

What just happened finally registers in my brain and I hurriedly bend down; tears blinding my vision.

My mother has been shot.

My mother took the bullet for me.

"Mum? Mum? Can you hear me? Mum, please stay with me" I place my mother's head on my lap crying her name repeatedly. Her eyes reflected her pain.

"My b-baby....." She groans referring to the child she was carrying and clutching her stomach. She turns her eyes to meet mine and I see tears shining in them making my tears fall at a faster rate.

"Daisy...." She calls, her eyes sad. "I'm s-so sorry Darling that ..........that you had to go through all this..." She pauses, closing her eyes to try and control the pain.
When she opens her eyes, tears fall from them and she grabs one of my hands with her less bloody hand.

"I want y-you to know that I l-love you so much and that even when you can't see me, I'll always be here for you. If I don't make it of here, you're going to have to be a strong girl and make sure that you take care of yourself" She says hoarsely her hand shaking violently.

"Mum, what's happening? Please stop talking like this" I look around desperately for help. My teary eyes land on Levi who was frozen with a look of complete horror painted on his face.

He suddenly snaps out if his shock and he drops his gun and runs towards us with his eyes on my mother.

"Elena, I'm so sorry. I would never do this to you, I love you. Please speak to me" He mumbles trying to draw my mother into his arms.

With all the rage and anger I was feeling, I push him hard. He falls on his rear on the floor but he doesn't make a move to stand up, instead he buries his face in his hands, his shoulders shaking violently from crying. Eve runs to him and he pushes her away.

I turn back to my mother staring at her helplessly and feeling so useless. She suddenly starts to gasp and my heart jumps to my throat. I hug her tighter and slowly, her gasping stops and relief washes over me.

But something seemed odd.

I looked at her chest to see that it wasn't moving anymore. No, my eyes must be playing tricks on me. I place two fingers in front of her nose and I note that she was no longer breathing.

My heartbeat rate goes out of proportion as I fumble all over trying to figure out what to do. I hug her lifeless body close to me as I scream out in agony; tears falling endlessly.

Levi lifts his head from his hands and when he sees what was happening, he scrambles off the floor to get to my mum.

"Elena, please I'm so sorry. I'm so fucking sorry. I love you, please don't leave me like this" he cries out his voice breaking.

He sobs for a while which made Eve also cry. Then suddenly, something changes in him and he walks to where he dropped the gun and picked it up.

"It's all your fault!" He roars at me. "I'm going to kill you and then myself. Life is meaningless without Elena anyway" He says his teeth gritting as another tear falls from his eye.

"Dad, no. Please, what about me" Eve sobs out.

He turns to look at her then turn back to face me ignoring her.
He aims the gun at me and I bury my face in my mother's chest waiting for the gun to go off.

Maybe it's better this way.

I'll soon be with mum.

I close my eyes as I fearfully await my demise.

But nothing happened.

"This building is surrounded. Drop your weapon and place your hands up where I can see them" A voice bellows and I lift my head to see lots of Police officers trooping in. Levi freezes when a gun was suddenly placed against the side of his head.
He drops his gun and was handcuffed then escorted out by the police.

My father then rushes through the door and when he sees my mother's body, he walked towards her shaking his head as tears make their way down his face as if he couldn't believe this was happening.

He sits on the floor clutching her to his chest as his silent sobs break my heart even more. He kept apologizing over and over for letting her and the baby down and for not keeping them safe.

Several minutes later, they were finally able to drag my father away from my mother's body.

Levi was sentenced to Life imprisonment while Eve was sent to live with a relative. She was absolutely devastated because her father was her idol and she would do anything to stay with him.

*end of flashback*

"It's been four years now and it still doesn't hurt any less" I mutter finally turning to look Hunter in the eye.

Somehow while telling my story, I must have crawled into his lap or maybe he put me there. Either way, I loved how his hands engulfed me as if he wouldn't let anything hurt me.

"I'm sorry that happened to you. I think Levi is crazy and I'm glad people like that are out of your world. I don't think I could bear it if anything were ever to.........." He shakes his head as if him thinking about me being hurt was too much.

"Do you have any idea why Eve is back?" He asks his face contorted into an unreadable mask.

"I don't know. She might just be here for the hell of it" I say shrugging and snuggling closer into his chest.

But I knew better, she was probably back for revenge.

***************************

Don't you all just adore Levi and Eve? 😏

I tried really hard to make this chapter sad but since I'm just too chirpy naturally, I think it didn't come out as sad as I wanted but oh well.

What was the saddest part for you?

What do you think will happen next?

Okay, enough with the questions, I feel like an investigator😎
