My heart rate picked up again as he grabbed me and pulled me close to him. I gasped. The cool metal of a gun touched my temple. I tried to scream, but his hand went to my mouth. Instead, I choked on my scream, and it turned into a sob.

“If you care about this one, don’t come any closer,” he hissed.

Dean held his arms up in the air. “Just let her go. She doesn’t have anything to do with this. I’ll trade places with her … please, just—”

“Shut up!” Keith shouted.

Dean didn’t say a word.

Damnit. He shouldn’t have come. He should have just waited. But he gave me a soft smile as he stepped forward; his eyes locked on mine.

“Becca, listen to me. It’s going to be okay.” He turned his attention to Keith. “Are you here to finish the job?”

“Yes.” Keith turned the gun from me to Dean. I tried to scream, but he still had my mouth covered. “I’m going to kill you for what you did to my sister.”

I struggled against his hold, but he kept a firm arm around me so I couldn’t move. I heard the safety on the gun click. My scream, although muffled by his hand came out louder. My heart raced; I had to do something. I had to save him. I had no clue how I was going to do that, but there wasn’t another option.

“Police!” A man shouted behind me. “Drop your gun, and let the girl go!”

Keith didn’t move. He stood there frozen. The barrel of the gun quivered against my temple. I whimpered. My heart raced.

Was this it?

Was I about to get killed because I’d had sex with a guy a couple times? I bit my lip, but tears ran down my cheek. I mean really, what was the point in trying not to cry while I was about to die?

“Drop your gun.”

The man said it again.

“Keith.” Dean stepped towards us.

No! He couldn’t. If he put himself in danger because of me. No. I was the one in danger because of him. Could I really blame him for this?

I stepped towards Keith. If he was going to kill someone, it was going to be me. “Keith, you don’t want to kill her.”

“I’m not the killer! You are.”

“No one move!” one of the police officers shouted.

“I’m not the killer!” Keith repeated. “He killed my sister.”

The gun moved towards me. Good. That was what I wanted, after all. If I could get the gun on me then—

Bang.

My heart skipped a beat.
