Kiara POV:
I could not believe Jj's dad. Not only did he not understand how special his son was he thought he was just a thief. I was trying to keep my cool but all hell broke loose when he had the audacity to bring my family into it. I could not control myself any longer and I turned around and punched him square in the face and dang did it feel good. It felt so reliving! I turned back towards the front and sat there until suddenly Jj's dad pulled something out. At the time I couldn't see what it was but boy I wish I had realized because what happened next was not pretty. Luke put one arm around my throat and held a knife. He then took the knife and the next bit was kind of a blur. He took the knife to my throat and sliced. He was not able to get deep however because Jj came out of nowhere and grabbed him. When he took the knife off my throat all I could feel was pain. I couldn't breathe and I was seeing red. Every time I took a breath it felt like torture. My lungs were on fire and tears were pouring out of my eyes. I tried to scream but it hurt too bad to even attempt making a sound. I could kind of hear a door slam shut next to me and feel arms on me . I could hear Jj hut it was muffled as if I had headphones on full blast while he was talking. I then felt someone pick me up but my vision was already going blurry. I couldn't see and couldn't think. The last thing I saw was a bright light and then everything went dark.
Jj POV:
I didn't want to push Kiara to help my dad but it was the only way to finally get rid of him. I also didn't want to leave Kiara in the car with him while I was in the store but I didn't really have any other options. So here I was paying for my dad's beer, per usual. I had to wait in the freaking longest line to do so. When I finally walked outside all I could think about was that I was finally rid of him. I was about halfway to the car when I heard the choking. I ran faster than I ever could and when I made it to the car I saw my father had slit Kiara's throat. I slammed the car door open and grabbed my father out of the car and closed the door. "Woah son calm down its just a scratch", My dad muttered, "She deserved it". "NO SHE DIDN'T FREAKING DESERVE IT, WHAT IN THE HECK IS WRONG WITH YOU", I screamed. I punched him so hard my knuckles started to bleed, but I didn't want to stop there. He could hurt me all he wanted but he could NEVER hurt Kie. I shoved him on the ground after getting in a few more punches and ran to the car door. When I got in the car I turned to Kie and saw her choking on her own blood. "Shoot Kie, Stay with me, please", I begged, "Kie I'm going to take you to the hospital ok, just hold on for a little longer". I was holding back tears, it was my fault this happened to Kie, if only I had come a little sooner maybe this wouldn't of happened. I started to speed and remembered that I had to help JB. "SHOOT", I yelled slamming on the breaks. I looked over and saw Kie slumped over with her eyes closed blood still coming out of the cut on her neck. I begged her to wake up as I took off my shirt and wrapped it around her neck. I probably broke like 10 laws trying to get to the hospital but all that was important was getting Kie to the hospital. When we finally arrived and grabbed Kiara. I tried to not cry. "Cmon Jj, you have to be strong for her", I told myself. I bolted into the hospital and begged them to take her. They quickly grabbed a gurney and put her on. "I'm sorry Kie, I'll be back but I have to get the Twinkie", I apologized.
-at the twinkie (John B was never gator rolled)
3rd person pov:
"Whats taking Jay so long", Sarah asked. "I don't know but he better have a good explanation". John B. muttered. Suddenly the group heard a loud motor engine coming at full speed. "Jj, where the heck where you", Pope demanded, "And where is Kie"? Jj looked down sadly and looked up. "Jay, where is Kie", John B questioned. "Kie is in the hospital, long story but right now we need to move the twinkie so I can get back there to Kiara", Jj explains. "SHES WHERE"?! Sarah yells. "I'll explain later just get the twinkie hooked up so we can get it out", Jj says.
-after they get the twinkie out and JJ explains-
Jj POV:
"WHY WOULD YOU HELP YOUR DAD ANYWAY?" John B demanded. "I was helping him leave my life ok?! I wanted to be rid of him, listen this isn't important we need to get to the hospital", Jj explained. John B. started up the Twinkie and they drove to the hospital. "I can't believe your dad did that", Sarah murmured. "Well he's a jerk, and I got payback", I said. The rest of the drive was so tense you could cut the tension with a knife. When we arrived we saw Kiara's parents who had been called after I told the hospital their names. "Anyone want to explain WHAT THE HECK happened to my daughted?!" Mike demanded. "It was my dad, Mr. Carrera, I never wanted her to be hurt". "THIS IS YOUR FAULT JJ, I KNEW YOU POGUES WOULD END HER UP IN A BAD SITUATION, MY DAUGHTER COULD BE DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU", Mike yelled. I stood silent for a moment realizing that it was my fault. If I hadn't helped my dad then Kie would be safe right now. It was all my fault. I ran out of the building to the courtyard to take a joint. I heard a door close behind me. "He's wrong you know", someone said. I turned around and I couldn't believe my eyes, it was Kiara. "How are you out of surgery?" I asked. "Listen", Kiara said, "You need to let me go and wake up". "What do you mean", I questioned. "Its been a week since the funeral Jay, I need you to forgive yourself, it wasn't your fault." "You're not dead, you can't be", I stuttered. My heart had stopped at her words. "Jay I have limited time and I want to tell you one more thing, I love you, I have loved you for such a long time and I was too dumb to realize it. I know we can't have a future anymore but my last wish is that you have a future with someone else." "I can't move on", I cried out to her. "You have to, for me". Suddenly my eyes opened and I realized I was sitting up in my bed and I remembered what had happened in the past two weeks. Kiara had died in the hospital. Her father blamed me. I hadn't spoken with the Pogues since the funeral. It was so hard to keep going without her but I realized that its what Kiara wanted.
