TOXIC (sketchxreader)

Braxton-

I tapped my foot out of impatience. They had taken y/n inside the room for questioning, an hour had passed yet there was no sign of any new leads.

Fortunate for me, as soon as I started getting bored y/n came out of the room. She was in awe when she found me sitting there. I smirked at her. She didn't say anything because she couldn't afford to get into more trouble.

Wait. Why the hell where they letting her go? Y/n casually exited out the door, "She is a damn criminal! and you are gonna let her go just like that?" I asked the cops who questioned her.

He motioned for me to sit down with him. I rolled my eyes and gave in. "We have to arrest her for both crimes if of course she has committed both of them. The assault is proven to be a crime done by her-" I interrupt him, "So why didn't you arrest her for it?"

"I just told you! We have to be smart and keep watch on her for a day. We sent her home so we could confirm her second crime while she is blissfully unaware. She is technically on house arrest for 24 hrs , we have told her not to leave the house and go anywhere or else she'll have to face consequences."

He continued, "Elijah got into that horrible car accident so we have to wait till he is conscious in order to talk to him. We have to validate his relationship with y/n before making any arrests or else their potential lawyers will use that against us. Do you understand now?"

My plan was sailing so damn smoothly but this twat had to just ruin it. I didn't utter a word and walked out of there so I could scream when I got to someplace stranded.

I let out an intense scream full of anger and frustration. Everyone's breaking what I am building. If nothing goes my way tomorrow, I'll take matters into my own hands.

Elijah-

I flutter my eyes open to a white blinding light. I look over to my left and I am hooked to a bunch of machines. The beeping noises might make me go deaf.

I hear a bunch of people screaming in joy, worsening the situation of my ears. I don't care though, Braxton is back and he ran me over on purpose yesterday. I need to talk to y/n. I sit up but I can't. Everything hurts, I feel weak and powerless.

I recognise the people standing over me as my brother Ethan and his girlfriend, Amie. "I am glad you are okay!" he hugs me.

I still remember the bright headlights of his cars erasing my eyesight completely before crashing into me. I have to let y/n know all of this happened while I was gone. I know we had a breakout yesterday but events just end up pushing us closer together and this is one of them.

I can't face this without y/n. "How are you feeling?", asks Ethan.

"Where's yn?" I ask. "You could've died Elijah." He replies instantly and breaks off the hug.

"I asked something, Ethan. Where the fuck is y/n?" I scream and panic. I have never felt so lonely while being surrounded by so many people.

He steps in closer to me, "She ran away, Elijah. Get over it." Amie gives him a disapproving look but I ignore her. She what? How could she? Was it because of the fight? If this is real I wish to have died in the accident instead.

I go numb and silent. "Yeah. That's right she doesn't give a fuck if something bad happens to you. She left you right when the cops got involved! She was just using you, when will you understand?" Ethan yells.

"Then why'd she tell me to not take the blame for her?"

Ethan chuckles, "God your so guillible, it hurts! She was obviously manipulating you to trust her then she left you when you did! It was her plan all along."

I look away and get lost in my thoughts. "Don't worry I already knew this was coming, I am prepared for this. We'll get you out of this situation soon!" Ethan ruffles my hair and snaps me out of my thoughts.

Was y/n conning me the whole time? She attacked me with a knife and hurt the people I love emotionally so it wouldn't be out of character for her to do something like that. If I didn't meet her, Braxton wouldn't have targeted me and tried to kill me with his car.

I wish I never met y/n, that woman ruined my life. I bring Ethan in for a hug and cry into his shoulders. Y/n tried to push me and Ethan away but it didn't work, I am glad it didn't.
