Torn

Chapter 8

"You always say that, Amanda. I promise. You can trust me."
"If I had a dollar for every time somebody has told me that.." She mumbles.
"I took a bullet for you, Amanda."
"But you also cheated on me with my sister!"
"She's gone. She's been running away from the police. She thought getting close to me would stop her warrants." Amanda feels tears welling up in her eyes.
"Why did you trust her?"
"I don't know, Amanda. I don't even care about her anymore. We were never even involved before she said she wanted an escape."
"Why did you let her in? You could have handcuffed her and brought her straight to Liv."
"I wanted to give her a chance.
"A chance?! A chance, really Sonny? She's been convicted so many times I can't even count it on one hand."
"Who was in jail for threatening to kill her?" He asks.
"Who was in jail for vandalizing a building?" He stands up, trying to contain his anger.
"I'm done with you, Amanda. I'm done. All of this arguing and fighting has ruined our relationship. Call Liv. Turn me in. I dare you." He storms out the door, leaving Amanda feeling empty. She follows him to a busy parking lot.
"Sonny, you need to stop before you get hurt." "Dominick Carisi, come here. I care about you." He looks back and shakes his head. She nods, following after him.
"If you don't come here right now, I'm going to apprehend you and put you in the box. Just you and me."
"You don't scare me, Amanda." She hears from afar. She runs after him, stopping at her car to grab a gun, taser, and handcuffs. Sonny stops, and she points her taser at him, making him fall to the ground. She puts handcuffs on him, picking him up and putting him in her car."
"Dominick Carisi Jr, you better tell me what the hell you are doing, and what you want me to tell on you for. Talk."
"A-Amanda what are you talking about?" She stops the car and pulls her collar to her chin.
"You told me to call Liv and report you. What the hell for?"
"I-I-"
"Spit it out, Carisi!" She drives towards the precinct and takes Sonny out, ignoring glares from all of his squad. She pushes him into the interrogation room.
"What did you do? Tell me." She looks back at the double-sided glass. She slowly walks over to it.
"I know you're watching us, Olivia." She clenches her fist and punches through the glass, shards sticking to her arm, warm blood dripping down her wrist, landing on her elbow and dripping down. She swallows and regains herself.
"Why did you do that?" Sonny asks, trying to get up.
"Stay down." She says, slowly sliding down the wall, clutching her wrist. He stands up and crouches down next to her.
"Are you okay?" She shakes her head and slowly feels herself slipping.
"Manhattan to Central.. We need a bus..."
