Broken Hearted
So distant...
I was worried that after what just happened Beatriz would ditch me and think I was crazy. Well I am sort of…
“Annabella? What were you thinking? You nearly killed her!” His voice ringed in my ears. It had a hint of disappointment which just made me angry.
“Well, you know what Harry?” I went straight up to his face and shouted at him. I couldn’t take him looking at me the way he was. He stared at me like I had just committed a murder, which was close enough to happening but it didn’t! I walked out of the house fighting to hold the tears inside my eyes.
I heard Harry shouting my name and telling me to stop. He stared at me, startled when I abruptly came to a stop and turned around making my hair hit his face.
“What do you want Harry? You already said that I nearly killed her what else do you want to accuse me of?” I was angry but most of all I was upset.
“I don’t want to accuse you of anything! I…” he was speechless.
“I did it because… she deserved!”
“Why did she deserve it? I understand that you might not get along but why did you hit her like tha-“
“Because she set me up!”
“What do you mean she ‘set you up’?”
“The day we were meant to meet up at Starbucks, I got messages from some ‘unknown’ number threatening me and then the guy you saw me kissing was a guy from school and by the way I didn’t kiss him he kissed me!” I was on the verge of tears.
“So you didn’t kiss him on purpose? Why didn’t you tell me!?”
I sighed frustrated and trying with all my strength not to cry.
I didn’t want to cry and I didn’t want Harry to know that he caused this I wanted him to know that I was strong but I couldn’t.
“Do you know what hurts?” I whispered so he barely heard me which I was hoping he didn’t. I knew he heard me when I could feel him staring at me.
I used his silence as a sign to keep talking, “It hurts that after nearly 2 years of not seeing each other, of not knowing what you had been doing, I was willing to listen to what you had to say to explain yourself and I was going to give you a chance to prove yourself!” I couldn’t keep on going I was going to break down any minute.
“What has that got to do with this?”
“You know Harry, you’re so oblivious to everything! When I knocked on your window begging you to let me explain what happened! But did you let me explain to you? No, you didn’t! That’s how this is related to that!” When I shouted in his face, he just stared at me with pain and guilt in his eyes.
I fell to the floor crying, I couldn’t take it! When I dropped to the floor my necklace hit the light making it shine. Ohh no I hope he didn’t see it!
“You still have that?” Shit.
*Beatriz’s P.O.V*
When I saw Annabella walk out of the house, I was about to follow her but Beck held onto my wrist preventing me from following her out. Then I saw Harry run after her.
I said thank you to Andre for helping me. Honestly I was a bit frightened of Annabella at the moment but I knew that this side of her was inside somewhere just waiting to lash out, ask me how I know this? Well, every time she got angry she would start crying instead of letting her anger out which caused her to build up her anger inside.
I grabbed Becks neck in for a long, passionate kiss before backing away and watching him smile at me. I grabbed his large hand in my small one and made my way to this table that had all the drinks on it. I had just grabbed a drink for me and Beck, when Renny showed up with a cut and bruised face.
“You know Beatriz, your friend is going to pay!” She seemed a bit crazy after that beating she received from Annabella, I mean who wouldn’t?
“What exactly are you saying?”
“I’m saying that Annabella is going to pay for doing this to me! I’m going to hurt the thing she loves the most, and do you know what’s going to hurt the most? She will be right there knowing she could have stopped it” she wore a stupid smirk on her face. As soon as she said ‘the thing that she loves the most’ I understood. She wasn’t going to hurt Annabella, she was going to hurt………. Harry.
I dropped my drink before running out of the house to look for Annabella and Harry. I probably looked foolish screaming their names but I had to find them.
*Annabella’s P.O.V*
He reached out for my necklace. I just tried to look away hoping I wouldn’t have to have eye contact with him.
“Why do you still have this?” Really?
“Yeah why wouldn’t I?”
“Because I thought you hated me or something?”
“I still have it because I don’t break promises like you!”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“Well you asked me to promise you, that I would always wear this even if we weren’t together anymore. So that I could remember that you would always love me!” He stayed silent dropping the necklace. As if the necklace burnt his skin with pain and guilt.
“I kept that promise and many more but you couldn’t even keep one!”
“I…”
“About a year and a half ago you promised it would be me and you, us together forever. And I know that might not have been the case but you never came to California when you promised you would! Did you?” He was about to say something when I interrupted him.
“And even though you couldn’t keep your promise, even though you broke my heart, I still love you! I never stopped and I never will stop!” I heard Beatriz screaming and shouting calling for Harry and me. Harry turned to see what the racket was about. I was crying and didn’t want her to see me like this, so I turned around I saw a black car coming closer to us and I just got to see a man half way out of the car pointing a gun at me? No, he was pointing a gun at Harry!
I screamed and ran towards Harry. He turned and I grabbed his shoulders holding him into place so he wouldn’t move. It seemed as if everything was happening in slow motion, I heard the gun shot, I looked into Harry’s eyes while he looked into mine. He had pain, guilt, fear all mixed into his eyes.
I felt the bullet go into my lower back, but I couldn’t feel anything. I felt numb, I fell to the floor but before I could hit the floor Harry caught me held me to his chest crying and screaming my name. I could hear Beatriz screaming my name and crying but she sounded as if she were kilometres away from me. I was crying not knowing what would or was happening to me. I could feel my eyes closing, I could see everything going dark. With all the strength I had left in my body I whispered ever so softly an, ‘I love you’ to Harry before slowly closing my eyes. I distantly could hear the ambulance’s siren, before everything went black.
“Annabella? What were you thinking? You nearly killed her!” His voice ringed in my ears. It had a hint of disappointment which just made me angry.
“Well, you know what Harry?” I went straight up to his face and shouted at him. I couldn’t take him looking at me the way he was.
