Love changes you

Mikayla p.o.v.

I sat down next to my father's lifeless body while Dustin tried to console me.

Mikayla: I'm a murderer, I'm a fucking murderer!

Dustin: Mikayla you saved my life again, if anything you're a hero.  In fact, you're my hero.

What? A hero? I just shot my own fucking father in the head and he says I'm his hero? What the actual fuck did I just do? I mean we didn't have the best relationship, but this man helped create me. He was there my whole childhood, he watched me grow up, he helped raised me. He cared about me, he loved me, and I killed him.

Mikayla: Dustin please this is just way too much.

I break out of his grip and cry into my father's chest.

Mikayla:*whispering* Daddy I'm so sorry, I didn't know what to do, you and I both know you were gonna shoot.

What surprises me the most was the fact that in that split second I had to make a choice, and I chose Dustin over my dad. Never in a million years would I have thought this would happen to me. I cry "I'm sorry" over and over again to him praying his soul knows I'm sorry, but it's just a waste of my breathe. The ambulance rushes inside and puts him on the stretcher and rushes him off to the hospital. I sat in that very spot he lied trying to take in what I just did. I feel Dustin's warm hand rub on my back as I cry my eyes out.

Dustin: Come on, we should get out of here before the cops come rushing at us with questions.

At this moment I was stuck, I didn't know what to do, what to say, where to go. I'm so completely lost with myself. I really don't know who I am anymore...

Kelly p.o.v.

Keisha and I sat nervously in the emergency waiting room waiting to hear from the doctors about Pat. I never thought this shit would get so out of hand. It's crazy what people will do for money nowadays. I just hope my brother makes it out alright.  We were watching the news when all of a sudden paramedics bust threw the front doors wheeling in some guy with blood rushing out his head. I couldn't recognize the face with all the blood plus an oxygen mask. Damn, whoever got him sure got him good. It wasn't a pretty sight, but Keisha was really affected by it, I even saw her start to tear up.

Kelly: Are you alright?

Keisha: I think that was my dad they just wheeled by...

Oh shit. I just hope that means Dustin's still alive then.

Kelly: I'm sure that wasn't him, your dad's a lot fatter then that.

Keisha: Kelly I'm serious, I don't know what it is, but something is telling me that was him. I just hope he makes it out alive.

Kelly: Him? What about my brother is he shot too?!

Just then Dustin and Mikayla came through the doors with blood on their clothes, and Dustin had scratches and new forming bruises all on his face.

Dustin: Hey, is uh, pat ok?

Kelly: Don't know, he's still in surgery. Dude what happened to y'all?

Once I asked, tears started rolling down Mikayla's cheeks.

Keisha: *tearing up* Kay, where's dad?

After that Mikayla just busted out in tears. Damn, that dude must've been their dad then.
