Moving In

Whose to Blame

I take several steps towards the door subconsciously but Axel notices immediately, "Blaze, baby," he says sincerely maybe desperately, "don't do this."

"I just..." I pause and look into his eyes, "I just need some air."

I take several more steps towards the door, "go with her," John instructs to one of his body guards.

"Alone."

John looks at me with a raise eyebrows and for the first time I think I see a faint smile, at least as close to a smile as a man like him can come to.

"You think you actually have a choice?"

"The hell I don't," I hiss stepping forward, my aggressive and angry side showing its head.

"You don't," John says standing up, "you might be nothing but a weight on my shoulders, but my boy says he loves you. So I am not letting you high tail it out of here. There will be no more running away for your. I am not letting you leave him."

My heart breaks at his words, at what this might look like to Axel. Oh god.

My eyes swing to a conflicted looking Axel, "I'm not leaving him," I say sincerely to John, "I really do just need some air."

I make my way back over to him and he immediately relaxes as his arms round my waist, "I'll be right back," I mumble only to him.

He nods, "I know," I smile before pecking his lips gently.

I back away slowly still having a small grin on my lips, "alright robot number 1," I call over to the body guard closest to the door, "you're with me."

He rolls his eyes before glancing at John for permission. John juts out his chin, similar to a nod. I turn feeling eyes on me as we make our way out of the house and down the porch steps. I take a deep breath once I stop feeling the judgement eyes on me.

Once we start making out way down the drive way Robot number 1 stops, "we shouldn't leave the property," he says quietly.

As I am coming up with a mean little comeback to hopefully scare mister big and scary himself, I am stoped by the scream of my name.

I whip around and am beyond surprised to see a small brunette sprinting over towards me. Barreling on uneven footing and stumbling every could of steps, but still running as fast as she can to me.

"Mo?" I ask surprised and run to get closer to her, "what happened?"

As we get closer I reach out and hold onto her arms as she struggles to breath, but the look in her eyes shows how desperate she was to come here.

It's then I notice the red stains on her shirt and palms, "Jesus Christ Morean! Why are you covered in blood?!"

Déjà vu

She in trying to get the words out of her mouth but all she can make and grunts through the panting while trying to catch her breath.

"Go get Axel!" I shout at robot number 1 still glued to my side. I see him hesitate for a moment, "I said go!" I shout.

This time he takes off down the long driveway and I don't watch him any further before turning back to Mo who is now having trouble standing up.

"Hey stay with me Mo!" I shout holding her closer, "I need so know what happened."

"I-I...." She wheezes and I grip her shoulders, "I'm a-sorry."

"It's okay," I say softly still not understanding.

But Mo shakes her head vigorously, I feel her grip on me tighten and his nails dig into my skin.She shakes her head harder but her eyes seem far away, as if she isn't looking at me.

"What is it?"

"..." she murmurs and starts to fall in my hold, loosing consciousness.

"What?" I ask trying desperately to understand anything she is saying.

"R-run."

And then suddenly there is a loud smacking sound and I feel a sharp pain on the back of my head and we both fall into the ground, and everything goes dark.
