We got to the park and I saw Xavier's white Ferrari pulled up at the gate and we got out. I heard a playful scream in the silence of the night and nodded to the tall man beside me.
"This makes it easier to kill the girl." I folded my arms and smirked at the man
"Well done babe." he congratulated me "You found the right chance and you used it. Let's kill the girl and you can get your Prince Charming. You're a good ride in the back seat mia cara."
I slapped him playfully
"Just saying." he laughed and grabbed his rifle "Let's go."
I followed behind him quietly as we walked over the chain and up the stoned stairs. We heard another playful scream and I looked at the man and smiled. We both started walking towards the sound and I put my hands into my pocket and gripped the trigger of the rifle I had there.
Tonight Xavier will be all mine.
We came to where the stone pavement and stopped and it turned into a leafy trail.
"This goes to the lake." I told the man
"Good." he smirked "Now we could just kill her without having to worry about the cops finding us."
"How?"
"Drown her mia cara."
I nodded and followed him silently as we went through the crisp leaves which crunched under our feet. The trees creaked and swayed and the atmosphere was really creepy just then. The man stopped me and pulled me behind a tree when we came to the view of the lake. I was about to ask why when he put his finger to his lips to silence me then pointed. I followed his finger to where Xavier and Royalty were on the jetty laughing. I watched in absolute jealously when he pinned her to the jetty railing and kissed her and from the looks of it I knew there was tongue action. Anger boiled up inside me and I pulled out my rifle.
"Take good aim and then shoot." the man instructed me and I did
I aimed for Royalty's leg knowing that if she ran it would slow her down. My hands gripped the trigger angrily when I saw Royalty wrap her arms around Xavier's neck as they kissed. He smiled against her lips and began to deepen the kiss slowly.
He never kissed me like that when we were together. He was rough and possessive but with Royalty he's sweet and gentle. Why can she enjoy all the things I can't? They've been together for two months now and I know they'll last long but with me Xavier took my virginity and got bored of my in seven weeks. It's so unfair. I want her dead!
I pulled the trigger with my shaking hands letting tears of anger, confusion, pain and jealousy from down my face. There was a loud bang and I ducked behind a tree instantly and wiped the tears falling from my eyes. I wanted whatever Royalty had with Xavier and if it meant killing her to get it then I would. A second after the shoot there was a blood curdling scream from Royalty.
"ROYALTY!!!!!!" I heard Xavier yell her name as she fell into his arms "ROYALTY!!"
She was crying and shaking into his arms.
"My leg." she cried "Someone fired a shot."
Xavier looked at her white in the face. He fished his phone out his pocket and dialed a number and before he could talk to the person I fired a shot breaking the phone in his hand from my place behind the trees.
Crisitano's POV
I was home pacing the kitchen. It was almost eleven and Royalty and Xavier weren't home yet.
A movie doesn't take that long....does it?
"Oh geez Cristiano." Neveah groaned "You'll wear a hole in the tiles if you keep pacing. They'll be back don't worry."
"I've got an uneasy feeling." I folded my arms and turned around and started pacing again "Unless I see them walk through that door I'm not stopping from pacing."
"They'll be back b-" Geovanni began but stopped at the ringing of the phone and we all looked at each other and made a dash for the living room
"Hello Xavi-" Neveah picked up the phone then dropped it and screamed
"Neveah?!" Jianan was by her side and picked up the phone "Hello? Xavier? Hello?"
He looked at Neveah then up at me.
"It's dead." he said
"Neveah you cut off-" I began angrily
"It wasn't me!" she yelled defensively "There was a gunshot at the other end of the line."
"What!?" Geo, Jianan and I exclaimed together
"Prank call?" Jianan suggested
"Don't think so." I said walking down the corridor to my study at a furious rate "Geo traced the caller ID."
Geo took his tablet from my study table and turned it on and began to type furiously. Suddenly he stopped and turned the screen to face us.
"That was Xavier." he said
"Holy shit!" I exclaimed "He's in trouble. Let's go!"
Xavier's POV
I had Royalty on my back as I ran through the woods and I could hear the sound of running feet behind me and crunching leaves.
Shit and I left my gun at home and my phone's busted.
Self Note: Never leave home without a gun no matter if it's a date!
Note taken!
I jumped over the chain and opened the back door. I put Royalty down on the back seat. She was breathing hard and clutching her left leg. I closed the door, got into the front seat, started the car and reversed at high speed. I changed gear when I got unto the main road and stepped on the gas and raced. The roads in Italy were mostly clear and I knew now was a good time for drag racing.
I stepped on the gas and turned the corner sharply and steeped hard on the brakes sending the car wheels screeching to a halt as I turned the steering wheel. I stepped hard on the gas again when I saw a headlight and the turned into a dark road not caring where the hell I was. I stopped the car and turned off the lights and climbed over into the back seat with Royalty.
There was a big purple spot on her jeans and she was crying and holding her leg. I kissed her forehead as I sat on the ground. I put my hand in my pocket and pulled out a pocket knife.
