The End...

No I'm joking, seriously, that would have been cruel to end there.

We were stood shell shocked, the two fake police officers bodies were sprawled out dead on the floor, blood seeping from their death shot wounds,

"Is everyone okay?" The police officer asked, none of us spoke, I think everyone was in a state of complete and utter shock.

"I need to sit down" I said, which then sobered everyone's shock right up. Tayte steadied me and I slumped down on the side of the road. Tayte then began to speak with the police officer, whilst Noah was trying to calm both me and himself down, I was too busy looking at Arii who was freaking out majorly, still staring at the dead bodies,

"Arii..." I said, "Arii baby sis, come here. Noah go to Arii, she's petrified, she's stressing the hell out" he looked at me and then got up and went over and wrapped his arms around Arii. I took a few deep breaths, trying to ride through the pain. Tayte came over 10 minutes later,

 "Go to Arii Tayte. Deal with me later" I said before he could say anything to me, he took one look at Noah and Arii and went over. I noticed the police officer speaking with the taxi driver. Then I must have faded out, the pain in my ribs and chest fuzzing out my mind.

...

"Keane you with me buddy?" Tayte's voice said,

   "Barely" I answered,

"There'll be back up police officers here in 10 minutes. I talked them out of an ambulance, but they're going to have to take us to the police station for statements, then they're going to take us to Church Bay"

  "To be honest, I don't know what you're telling me right now" he chuckled softly, "How's Arii?"

"She's okay. She'll be fine, just a bit of shock, we've calmed her down, she's sat in the police car with Noah and the officer"

  "I thought we'd done it Tayte. I thought we'd made it and then...shit..." I trailed off, "I really don't feel too good"

"I hate this. I hate seeing you like this. I feel so helpless" Tayte said, I took his hand,

"Never feel helpless around me, because you are my rock and you are the one that's kept me going this whole time. Just tell me it's all going to be okay and I'll believe you. I'll always believe you" I told him, he looked at me and I knew something was going to go down, so when he crashed his lips onto mine, my mind went crazy, more along the lines 'I'm kissing my best friend, I'm kissing my sister's boyfriend. Holy shit Noah was right. Oh my fucking God, I kind of like it' once he pulled away he looked at me,

"I love you Keane, never forget that. I'm sorry I just kissed you, I'm sorry I just cheated on your sister, but...I've been meaning to do that for a long time. Plus I think I'm Bi or gay for you only, I don't know"

"Yeah...um. I'd say you just converted me, though that's no surprise I've always known you've been gay for me" I said, head still reeling, though a plus was that the pain was gone.

"Keane, Tayte...the police officers are here, they're going to take us to the..." He trailed off when he saw us, "Did you two just make out?" we looked at each other, "Shit you blatantly did, oh my Christ I knew it. I bloody well knew it"
