I started to drive knowing where to go. Home.

"Reed why are you here?" I said, trying to not sound scared even though I was. Reed is someone who is able to get what he wants anytime. And one thing he wants is make my life a living hell. And damn he has been doing a hell of a job

"Hello darling," He chuckled, "how could I help you?"

I started to hear yelling from down the hall, sounding somewhat like Taehyung. "What are they doing to them?" I asked full of concern. Taehyung is my best friend. I love him and the boys, I couldn't bare to see them hurt. Just thinking about it. I've lost too many people already.
"Why don't you go find out while I ask Jai some important questions." I ran fast, I went into my room and pick up my bag. Then taking out the gun Jai gave me.
How much I don't want to do this.
I went down to the last room, which was an extra room and saw Taehyung on the floor with a guy kicking him repeatedly. The strange man turned around and I instantly pulled the gun up.

"Put your weapons down" I said, with shakey hands, sweaty palms. "Little girl you won't do anything." The man laughed.

"Kay, you need to get somewhere safe-" "No no no. Let the girl handle this, doesn't she got it?" He said coming closer to me making me step back, "Well she won't pull the fucking trigger, she will probably just let me take it from her." He attempted to take it making me use the end of the gun to hit him in his nose, running the other way, closer to Taehyung.
"Little girl, you better just stop trying. You won't do shit." He laughed holding his while blooded piled up in his hand.
"Kay, pass the gun to me." Taehyung looked at me on the ground. I looked at Tae. I knew what he would do. "Why don't you do it Kay? Or are you too scared?"
"Pass me, the fucking gun."
"Can't she handle her own problems. She doesn't need her other fuck toy to help her." My eyes widened at his remark. "W-We aren't-"
Namjoon comes in, shooting the man straight between his two eyes. I looked away and slid down to the ground beside Taehyung. He came beside and hugged me. "I-It's okay Kaylee. Okay I'm here for you." I busted out in tears I couldn't believe what I saw just a second ago. The scene replayed over and over in my head.
"Take her somewhere safe." "N-No I want to see Jai before anything." Namjoon left out a big sigh. "Kaylee, he's with-" "Reed I know okay. Just let me talk to him."
I passed through them all and went to the room. They looked up and saw me. Reed's guys raised their guns, pointing them at me. "Ah Kaylee. Put your gun down idiots. Let her stay. The shows about to start."
I looked at Jai's beat up face, clearly fresh wounds. "You know this has been going on forever, shouldn't we tell Kaylee the truth?" I looked at Jai, he had his head down. "See Kaylee, you have been my target for what feels like forever. But I had some help with the boys." Reed continued. "What the hell are talking about? What boys?" "Jai and his buddies of course." "Reed don't do this." Jai pleaded. I felt my heart drop.
Oh no.
"You see, Jai worked for me. I taught him everything he knows. Fighting, aim, you name it. Then I told him a target and then he was after them. Can you guess who it was?" Reed chuckled. That all makes sense. All the nice talking when he saw me. "D-Did you try to kill me?" I felt my eyes pour out tears. "Kay I-" "He sure did. Don't you remember when he ask you to stay?" "Kaylee I'm so so sorry-" "You lied to me." I spat, "You fucking lied to me!"
"He sure did darling he was just doing the rule. Keep your friend close and your victims closer." Reed let out a laugh.

I stormed out of the room and went outside of the house. "Kaylee!" Jai yelled behind me. Reed must of let him out. I walked away, farther away from him and turned into an alley. "Kaylee please listen to me." Jai pulled on my arm and turned me around to see him.
"I don't want to listen to you okay! You fucking lied Jai. I trusted you. For fuck sake I loved you! I still do!" Tears rolled down my cheeks, "I fucking love you and I-I can't help it." He looked at me, fear in his eyes. "Kaylee, y-you don't mean that.."

He backed away from me. "Jai I-I do. Your only person I trusted. The only person who knows about what happened during high school. You know my biggest fears and dreams. I fucking love you. A-And I know you told me not to, b-but Jai, I can't help that I feel this way. Why can't you just face it and know you can't push feelings away."

He looked at me, the alley way was cold and dark, who knows who was listening to the conversation. Jai reached in his pocket and pulled out his gun. "Jai what are you doing?" I was scared, he would do. For heaven sake he tried to kill me before. What would change his Mind now.

"Kaylee, I think it would be best for you to take my car and leave." He looked down not looking at me. "Jai what do you mean? I'm not leaving!" I tried to come closer to him put he stopped me. "Don't come closer to me." He sniffles out, "Or I'll shoot." I scoff at his remarks knowing it was just threat. "You won't." He pulled the gun up, pointing at my chest, "Oh Kaylee, I will. Now get the fuck out and leave. Don't ever come back." I started to cry harder, knowing the tone of his voice, he was serious. He threw the keys at my feet so I could get them.
"From all what we have been through. God Jai, I thought you really different. I really fucking thought you changed." I laughed picking up the keys, "But really you were just another screw up that stepped in my fucking life."

I walked out of the alley, heading to his car. I got in and started the engine.

Fuck Jai, fuck feelings.

I started to drive knowing where to go. Home.
