heartbeats – chapter forty seven

"She tried to kill you." Allison looked at us.

Scott nodded slowly. "Uh, yeah, yeah."

She was holding back the tears and it made me feel bad. It doesn't matter if her mother tried to kill us, or if she was a bad person. It was her mom.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Allison asked.

"We'll tell you everything, okay?" Scott said. "Anything that you want to know, but right now—"

"Just tell me why."

Scott looked at me; there was still blood on his chin and we have to follow Derek.

"Allison, we couldn't." I said and she looked at me. "Look, I couldn't let that be the last memory that you had of her."

Even though what Allison did to me was wrong, I would never try to make her feel bad. I'm not like this.

I widened my eyes when I looked up and I saw Derek holding Erica's body. Her dead body. I felt the tears trying to fall down my cheeks. Scott squeezed my hand when I looked at Derek and I noticed that he was trying not to cry.

Cassie and I widened our eyes when we saw Boyd. We were after Cora and him in the middle of the woods. And I heard kids screaming. So here we are, looking at Boyd almost killed the two kids. Scott and I started running towards them. Cassie came from behind Boyd's body and she used her psychic electrokinesis to shock his body and he growled loudly, falling in the ground and I quickly grabbed the children so we ran before Boyd started to heal to go after us.

I quickly called Derek and told him about the situation.

"You lost them?"

"Yeah, we kind of had to." I replied.

"Wasn't exactly the plan." Derek hissed.

"I know, which is why I think that we should stick together. Trust me, he's too strong, too fast. And way too angry for one person to handle. We've got to do this together."

"Look, I'm at the trails by the entrance to the preserve. Can you meet me here?" Derek asked.

"Yeah. Just got to drop something off first." I said, looking at the kids holding my girlfriend's body.

I waited for Cassie to knock on the door and a woman opened it.

"Mommy!" The girl yelled, hugging her mom.
