Loving My Boyfriend's Best Friend Chapter 32
"Elena.. what..." He laughs again, getting me pissed.
"Am I not enough for you? She can't be that pretty." I whine, turning my back at him.
"El, c'mon. Do you really think i would do that to you?" He wraps his hands around my waist, bringing his neck to my shoulders.
"You hesitated."
"I was just your pulling your legs. Now, you know how it feels to make someone jealous." He laughed.
"You....!" I spanked him on his butt.
"El...stop... gosh...it's so painful." He escaped from my grasp. I'm so going to deal with him.
Shawn's Pov
My mind still drifts to the thought of Elena cheating on me.
"Did you really know why Harry left for England?"
"He couldn't face the fact that you were with Elena."
"And now that he's staying at your place, who knows what what could have happened. What am i saying Shawn? Elena told me these things. She was so happy at the beach. Since you weren't paying much attention to her, Harry got to warm her bed nicely."
I clenched my fists in rage, holding the gun Anna gave me. Dennis kept on calling my line but i rejected it and switched off my phone. I got out of my car. I was already at the door. Different thoughts rolled into my head. What will i do if it's really true?
**************
"Harry, stop. Not right now. I'm tired." I try resisting him but he was too clingy.
"But i want you right now." He pulled me closer to him.
"But it's five in the morning. I'm so tired. Sleep." I groan tiredly.
"How can i sleep when i feel so active?"
"We have plenty of time. Shawn isn't coming back yet."
The light switched on, making us wonder who it would be. There's no one else in the house except Harry and I.
"I'M BACK."
I know that voice.
I cover my face as i saw him clearly. I couldn't face him. There was no explanation.
"Shawn..please..." Harry tried to speak but cuts him off.
"Shut up!" He pulled out his gun at Harry.
"Oh my god, Shawn." I spoke out of fear.
"Shut up you whore." He growled.
"Shawn it's not up to this. Drop the gun down." Harry tried changing his mind
"And why would I? I should have believed Anna. I should have believed Damien. You lied to me Elena. All this while, I was the one being fooled."
"Shawn...I can explain...Please..." I stood up from the bed.
"Don't come close to me! I said don't come close to me!" He shouts in rage. I stopped dead in my tracks. There was nothing i could do to change his mind. One of us isn't coming out of the room alive.
"Why don't you guys do what you were wanting to do. Harry, you're still active, aren't you? You're free. I would love to see how you guys have been having fun while i was away."
"Bro..."
"Did you just call me bro? Harry, you're the last person i thought will do this to me you know. I trusted you but you fucked up big time. Do you have any last words?"
"Shawn, please don't.." I held unto Harry's hands. I don't want to lose him.
"Let's settle this some other way."
"But there's no other way, Elena."
"Shawn, you've been drinking. Snap out of it."
"You leave me no choice." He pulls the trigger at Harry. The thought of losing him flushed into my mind. I couldn't bare it.
Harry's pov
I closed my eyes, accepting my fate. I knew I deserved this but i don't regret loving her. I would never. I heard the sound of him pulling the trigger but i was still alive and it made me get confused. I opened my eyes only to see Elena laying helplessly on the ground. My world was turned upside down.
"Stay with me, El. Please. Okay?" I stay close to her as she was rushed hurriedly to the emergency unit.
"Ha...rry... don't feel guilty." She mustered all her strength to speak.
"Shh...you're bleeding."
"Harry, always know that i love you."
"Stop this nonsense, El. You're not dying. It's just one bullet so don't give me that speech. You can fight this for me right?" I wanted a reassurance from her.
She nods her head gently. Before i knew it, she was in for surgery. I close my eyes, praying for the surgery to be successful. She really lost a lot of blood. El, please you can fight this. Do this for me. We still have a lot to catch up to. I haven't had enough time to shower you all the love you wanted. I really wish i was in your place right now. I deserve it. I was the one who betrayed my best friend trust. I took advantage of the opportunity i had. But still, I won't regret loving you. I really wish Shawn didn't go this far because now he has been arrested. He shouldn't have gone this far.
With my eyes still shut, someone pulled my shirt, hitting me on the chest.
"I told you to stay away from her. This is all your fault!" Jade held me closely, anger and tears pouring out of her eyes.
"My poor baby. I just hope she will be all right. She better be! Oh god, she's all i have. Elena wouldn't just listen to me. I told her severally but no i was just barking like a dog to her and now she's fighting for her life for someone not worth it. You're ..."
"Jade, that's enough. It's not his fault." Malcom stops her from saying one more word.
"Not his fault? Malcom, you say that because you know nothing about our daughter! This guy here. Oh, Shawn's ex best friend has been taking advantage of our daughter."
"What?"
"No, that's not true. I wasn't taking advantage of her." I correct her.
"Then what was it then? Elena kept on ending in the hospital because of you. Because you always hurt her. You were taking advantage of her feelings for you. Why didn't you just stay away as i told you?"
