Bell Ringers and Trouble Bringers, chapter 11
Ch. 11- Hostage... Bang Bang... Part 2 THE END
I sat on the floor, back against the bed. Jack was trying to break down the door he hasn't shot any rounds into the door. I guess he was saving the bullets for me. I quickly got up and walked over to the window. I opened it and popped my head outside, I could jump... But it was a good possibility that I would hurt myself falling out. While I was debating on a broken leg or a bullet filled corpse, the banging ceased. Now that freaked me out, I got off the window and stood up straight, looking at the silent door. What happened to him? I looked out the window again, that's when I panicked. Mike's car was now pulling into the driveway, Tre was with him. I almost jumped out the window, but I stopped myself. I quickly took all the stuff out from behind the door and dashed out the door, as I made my into the living room I stopped and looked around... No Jack. Mike then entered the house, I quickly tackled him and we both fell outside on his back. Tre jumped back dodging us.
"Lex, what's gotten into you?!" he asked holding me. I looked at the front door, I took a huge breath.
"Damn Lex, you going crazy or something?" I buried my face in Mike's shirt I dunno why I couldn't speak. Mike got up and helped me up too. I took another huge breath and managed to say,
"He's back... "
Mike looked serious and angry now he then walked inside the house, the crazy bastard, and ran around the house searching.
"COME OUT YOU M*****F*****!" Tre walked up beside me watching and listening to Mike holler and shout for Jack to come out so he could beat the shit out of him.
"Is this the guy who attempted to kidnap you?" he asked keeping his eyes locked inside the house. I nodded, and then looked around.
"Hey, you're car isn't here... "
"I know I came with Mike to borrow a white button up shirt for my suit. Mike said he had an extra one." Mike came walking out with Roy nipping at his heels.
"No ones in the house, Lex. But I believe you, the entertainment system is a wreck and the bathroom door has been busted." Tre's jaw dropped.
"DAMN!"
"He's got to be in there!" I shouted, "cause I didn't hear him leave!"
Mike shook his head.
"Well he ain't here, sorry."
I sighed and walked inside, Tre followed as Mike led him to the closet in the bedroom and gave him the shirt.
Restless days passed by, that week. At work I didn't see Jack. Mike and me fixed the door with some duck tape. We tried to fix the T. V, but duck tape covered the screen and it was burnt out. We all picked up our suits and dresses and prepared for the wedding the next day.
The next morning...
"He Hit The Ground Running
At The Speed Of Light
The Star Was Brightly Shining
Like A Neon Light!" screeched my alarm clock. Mike jumped I could tell he was awake now. I made sure he was going to wake up this time by turning up the full volume on my alarm clock. I felt around for the button to stop the noise till I fell out of bed, Roy tumbling off the bed with sheets too. I stood up clumsily and turned off the clock. Mike sat up stretching his arms. I yawned and dragged my feet towards the doorway going to the kitchen. I he'sitated before walking down the hallway,
"You ok?" asked Mike lying in bed watching me. There was a pause, then I shook my head and continued walking. I made some coffee, ate some breakfast, fed Roy and started to get ready. I was a little excited to wear the red dress. Mike was a little slow, I guess he was tired. There was knocking at the door but they walk in anyway... Did we leave the door unlocked?
"Lex? Hey where are you?" yelled out Michelle.
"In the bathroom!" I yelled back brushing my teeth. Michelle walked into the bathroom then glared at the door.
"Holy shit! I guess Tre wasn't kidding around when he said that Jack stopped by again. Why didn't you call us?!" I spit into the sink and rinsed again.
"I couldn't, in the process of trying to kill me the son-of-a-bitch hid the phones. I don't know where the hell he went around the time Mike and Tre pulled into the driveway." I said. Tre burst out laughing when he heard us talking,
"You tried fixing it with duck tape and it worked?!" he laughed. As soon as I put on my black heels we left. Before Mike and Me piled into his car Michelle stopped me,
"Hey Lex I almost forgot. Ashley is giving us these to go with our dresses." She handed me some red and black cross earrings. They looked so cool. We piled into the cars and headed over to the house.
While putting on the earrings in the car, we past a road with a strange car sitting there with a man in it. I turned my head and looked. The car was gone. I was a little creeped out but ignored it. We arrived to see a whole bunch of vehicles on the front lawn. There was a sign sitting on the driveway that read:
RESERVED PARKING SPOT FOR THE PARENTS OF THE HAPPY COUPLE.
WARNING: DO NOT PARK BEHIND THEM!
So we parked on the side of the street. We got out, Mike held out his arm and I took it as we walked onto the lawn. I almost fell,
"Damn heels!" I cursed. Mike looked at me,
"Why'd you where them if you hate those?" he asked.
"Cause they are the only ones I have that match." I replied keeping my balance. We were greeted at the gate leading to the backyard by Denise. You won't believe what we saw when we got inside the backyard I could tell Ashley did her best to make this wedding look perfect! It looked like one huge wedding chapel/reception put together in one huge clash! It was awesome! I looked around and saw Ashley talking to Michelle and Denise.
"Hey Mike I'm gonna go talk to Ash." He nodded and walked over to the guys. I ran over, without falling, to my friends.
"Hey ASH!" Ashley looked then jumped.
"Hey LEX! Ya'll I'm so happy!" she squealed.
"And excited." Said Denise. We all laughed. Ashley quickly got serious when she stared past us. We all turned, I was kind of scared to, but it was her parents. Her mom looked at us confused (I think it was our outfits), then at her daughter. Her dad looks at his wife then hugs Ashley,
"Congrats Ash." He said. Suddenly her mom starts to bawl and sob, she then hugs Ashley. We all stare wide-eyed and kind of backed away.
"DON'T LEAVE ME YOU GUYS! HELP ME!" cried Ashley reaching out of her mom's grip. Suddenly, there's a man telling us that it's time to get ready for the wedding. We all rush onto the stage, along with the guys and Billie Joe waiting. When everyone got quiet and sat down the music started. I looked at the crowd of people sitting at the tables. Darlena and Lizzy looked a little pissed. I glanced at Mike who smiled. I smiled back. Finally, Ashley and her dad walked down the red carpet that was set on the grass. Her mom just bawled. When they came to a stop, she quietly walked up the steps of the stage and took Billie Joe's arm. I felt like I was the only one not crying on and off the stage, so I acted like I was wiping my tears. Weddings never did make me cry.
LET FAST FORWARD THROUGH THE VOWS SHALL WE?! (only cause I don't remember them.... )
After they were presented husband and wife and kissing the living breath out of each other, they had a reception. The DJ, whom was Tre ( I know, I know. Shut up. ), started to play "Don't Leave Me." That was Ashley's favorite song by the guys. People got up and started to dance. I went into the house to the kitchen where the food and drinks sat on the counters I needed a drink before I danced. Denise came and stood in the doorway,
"Hey, you Michelle? Tre wants to dance and can't find her." I shook my head while taking a sip of pepsi. Denise sighed and ran back out to the party. I set the cup down and looked out the window. Mike and Billie Joe were laughing. I started to take another sip when I heard a noise coming from inside the house, sounded like someone talking. I walked into the living room and down the hallway. I gasped to see Michelle sitting in the hallway staring into a room scared as hell.
"Michelle?!" I ran over to her. "What's wrong?" She shook her head and pointed. I looked in the doorway of the guest bedroom, no one there. I looked at her and helped her up. "What's wrong? Talk damnit!"
"Peek-a-boo." Said a low voice. I spun around and saw Jack standing in the doorway with a pistol in his hand. DAMN IT! He's back! WHY?! I thought. I grabbed Michelle by the arm and started to run but Jack grabbed my arm and slammed me into the wall. Michelle kept running. I hope she gets help. Jack cursed under his breath and threw me to the ground while he went to lock all the doors in the house. I got up and stumbled into the guestroom, I started to lock it but the door didn't have one! HOW WRONG IS THAT?! I could hear Jack laughing as he stomped through the hallway to the room. I took off my heels and held my back against the door. He began pushing against it. My feet scrubbed against the carpet as I tried to hold the door shut. Suddenly it went quiet, I heard a faint thump... BANG! I fell away from the door hitting the floor and holding my left arm. The door slammed open, I could hear the Mike screaming and banging on the backdoor. Jack kneeled over me and held the gun to my head I quickly grabbed my right shoe and bashed him on the head with the heel. He dropped the gun and fell back. I slowly got up and started to run but Jack grabbed my ankle and tripped me up. He slammed his knee on my lower back to hold me down while he searched for his gun. I heard a crash coming from the kitchen and a "HEY MAN THAT WAS A WINDOW!" Jack then stopped his search and came in close to my ear,
"You're boyfriend better say his prayers... " he then found his gun and got up, walking down the hallway...
"MIKE! DO-" I started to scream but there was a thump on the window of the guestroom. I sat up and looked back, it was Mike with a finger held to his lips, he was telling me to be quiet. I ran over to the window and opened it.
"Mike help me out... " he shook his head and climbed in, holding a knife. He stormed down the hallway, I quickly followed and saw him stab Jack in the back. He drops the gun and throws a punch at Mike.
"MIKE!" I scream. Jack starts to dash over to me but Mike slashes his ankle, he falls. Mike then sits up, throwing the kife aside and beats the shit out of him. I move over towards the gun...
Jack quickly pushes Mike away and grabs the knife and holds Mike down... I grab the gun shakily...
"I'm getting tired of you messing up my plans you son-of-a-bitch." Said Jack grinning. He then grabs Mike's throat and squeezes, holding the knife high. "Bye-bye... "
BANG BANG BANG
He drops the knife. I drop the gun. Mike can breath.
Mike pushes Jack's body off and sits up rubbing his neck and looks up at me. I'm shocked as hell staring at the dead body of the man who tried to kill me. Mike stands up and pulls me over to him I'm too shocked to even noticed I even moved. I came to when he touched my arm,
"OW!" I cried. I looked at Jack again. There were sirens blaring outside. Mike and Me went out back to the party, to talk to the police.
"What happened Lex?! You ok? What about you Mike?!" asked Ashley standing close to Billie Joe. I smiled a little guilty,
"Um, Jacks dead." I said silently...
The day went by slowly that day. Um, well I had fun till the police called an ambulance to come get me when I passed out while dancing to "Baby Got Back". I have a scar on my arm now, um, Ashley and Billie Joe are now a happy couple and happier than ever. Tre claims he's going to put a tracker on Michelle so he never loses her again. Denise and Willie are still together unfortunately. But so on and So forth, this story end with a moral...
Ashley: "Never shoot a killer ex-boyfriend to leave his body to stain my damn carpet and for me to clean it on my wedding day?"
Me: "Um... No but I'll go with that!"
