{ CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO. }
OUT OF TIME.
* * * *
Y/N POV:
Confused to why Max wasn't saying anything, I say
"Max....?"
Behind me, I suddenly hear shaky breathing.
Looking down, I repeat myself.
"Max." No response.
He's not giving a response.
"MAX?!" I yell, turning around. Taking out my toy rocket.
Looking up, I see Max charging right at me with a kitchen knife.
Gasping, I immediately charge right at him before he could do anything.
Grabbing his armed arm, I grip onto it tightly.
Max, dropping the knife. The knife, falling onto the floor.
Angry, I jump right on Max. Causing him and I to fall on the floor.
Sitting up straight, I lift up my toy rocket. Getting ready to do the impact.
Shocked, he covers his face.
"How dare you...." I say, betrayed.
He starts crying,
"P-PLEASE!! DON'T! PLEASE!" Max pleads, scared.
Shaking my head, I ignore him.
"THIS WAS APART OF HIS DEAL!!" Max yells,
Tilting my head, I raise my brows.
What? What is he even talking about??
"What....deal??" I ask,
Opening his eyes, he explains.
"His deal, that he made with me. It was either to take my own life, for you to live. Or you, for me to live. I had no choice!"
"Kay....? So why shouldn't I kill you now? You were trying to kill me, in order for you to-"
"I KNOW! But I can't do it....! I just wanna live....!!" Max yells,
Starting to feel empathy towards him, my eyes soften.
He's telling the truth. I can tell by the tone of his voice.
He's not capable of taking someone's life.
Sighing, I lift the rocket down.
"Okay. I believe you." I say, getting off of him.
Max gets up. Still being shaky from what had just happened.
