SOB 9 Justin “Brian, you can’t go over there. You know it has to be a trick.” I plead with Brian as he picks up the phone. “Justin, I have to do what I have to do.” He kisses my forehead. “But he will kill you if you go there.” I point out. “I know, that is why I am calling Carl. I’m not going over there Justin. If he did shoot Dee, then he won’t hesitate to shoot me.” I let out a sigh as he dials the number. “Carl, Need you here, NOW!” I see him bring his hand up to rub his temple. “It’s Kip, the one who cried sexual harassment on me years ago. Well, he is Devlin and he was just on the phone with Justin and I and he fired a shot. We think he shot Dee.” Brian lets out. There was silence for a moment and then Brian hung up. “Carl is going to go over there with some cops and check it out. He told me not to go over.” He hugs me closer to him, and I can’t help but feel bad for Dee. But that only lasted a few seconds remembering what she did to Brian and me and even her kids. I know that Brian would do everything he can to make sure we are all safe. He kisses my lips softly. “No worries Sunshine. It will be over as soon as Carl calls us to let us know about getting that asshole.” “I just hope he didn’t shoot her Brian. Not because I don’t trust her, but she still is the kid’s mother.” Brian nods his understanding. “I know. I am just glad to have such a great husband who won’t hold things against someone for too long.” Brian and I feel guilty because on the fact I still do hold it against her. She has never given me the benefit of the doubt. “Dad, is everything okay?” Brianna asks from the hall. “Yeah baby.” Brian makes his way to her and hugs her as the twins come out as well. “We pway daddy.” Justine and Aidan both say at the same time. Laughing we sit down and play with the twins and wait to hear from Carl. Kip I walk around waiting for Brian to show up. Looking down at the still bleeding Dee. “He should have been here by now.” I tell her before kicking her and hearing her moan out in pain. “WHERE THE FUCK IS HE!” I scream once more. “The fucker has to die and then I will go and kill Justin as well, or maybe let him suffer the loss of his partner and the mother of his children.” I smile because I like the idea of knowing he’s suffering without the ones he wants. I look out the window to see if I can see Brian’s car, but then I see two cop cars parked up the street. “Fuck, he called the cops. I have to get out of here. Hell, since the cops will think I am in here, they won’t think I left and I will have plenty of time to go to the loft and kill them all.” Smiling, I grab my drink, but not my keys, they will hear me leaving. Living this close to them has its advantages. Walking by Dee once more, I lean over and kiss her on the head. “Been nice knowing you Dee, but now it’s time to say good bye. I have to say, it’s been a pleasure having fun with you.” Standing, I walk out the back door, making sure the cops haven’t gotten back there yet. I sneak through my neighbor’s yard and head in the direction of the loft. Once there, I ring the people in the other loft, telling them I am here to inspect a reported gas leak. The hussy bought it and buzzed me right in. I head up the stairs to the forth floor. Since they bought the loft under them and resigned it to where the rooms are upstairs. I hear them inside, playing and the kids are laughing. I knock on the door. “Who is it?” Brian asks. “Officer Mitchell’s, Chief Horvath asked me to come sit with you until Mr. Thomas is captured.” I say putting on my best English accent. I hear him opening the loft door and before he has a chance to react I punch him in his face, knocking him back. “I fucking owed you that Kinney.” I snare as I walk inside. I see Justin jump up and put the kids behind him. Smiling, I start to walk over when Brian grabs me from behind I turn and place the gun in his face. “Back off Kinney. I didn’t hesitate to shoot that fucking Dee bitch and I won’t hesitate to shoot you.”. Justin and Brian are now blocking the kids as well as the woman. “Devlin, please tell me you didn’t kill my mother.” Brianna is now crying and even though I didn’t really care for her mother, I cared for her. “Brianna, it’s better this way. Your mom had a lot of issues and it was because of these two assholes.” I point to Brian and Justin. “No, please, no she’s not dead.” She clings onto Brian’s arm when Mel moves over to her. “Well, she was shot when I left, but she still had some breath in her.” I smile knowing she is probably dead by now. “NOOO!” She screams running over to hit me. I grab her arm and hold it, still pointing the gun at Brian. “Look sweetie, I am not going to hurt you. I am here to hurt your dads.” I give her a kiss on her cheek as she slaps me. “Don’t you touch her.” Justin screams at me. “I’m not going to hurt the kids.” I tell him matter of fact. “Then let all of us go.” Brianna pleaded. “I can’t let them go baby.” I give her a sad smile. “Don’t call me that. You lied to me. I trusted you. And now you want to take everything I love away from me. You have NO right to call me baby.” I really hated hurting her. “Brianna, I know this is rough on you but you will get over it and you will go on. And you will have more heartache. I really cared and liked you Baby.” I smile sadly at her. She leans onto Brian so I can’t shoot him. I see Justin look at Brian and then at Brianna before turning his attention back to me. “Let the girls take the kids and leave. This has nothing to do with them. It has to deal with us. You, Brian and me. If you don’t want to hurt them, then let them go. The girls can take them. They haven’t done anything to you either.” I look at the kids who are all hanging onto Mel and Linds. “No I won’t leave you.” Brianna tells her dads. Justin looks at me. “Kip, please. They are just kids.” I look at the girls who have two crying kids in their arms. I feel my heart sink some for them. “Okay, they can go. I really don’t want them to witness what I am going to do. I know they will hurt.” I look at Brianna as I finish. “I know this will hurt, but no need to have the pictures in your head.” “I don’t want to go.” She cries out. Now there is the twins and Brianna all crying. I guess Brian’s son is with Debbie. Brian “Brianna, go.” I firmly tell her. “Dad.” She tries to protest, but Justin puts his arm around her shoulder. “Brianna, honey, go look after your brother and sister.” “Ya, they need their big sister right now.” Both of us hug her. “Dad, don’t make me go.” She cries. “Baby, you need to go. We don’t want you in harms way. The more people here, the more he has a chance at hitting the wrong person.” “Daddy.” She is now fully blown crying. “Brianna, listen, we will be okay. I haven’t let you down and I won’t start now. Please just go so we can get this over with. I love you baby and I promise, nothing will go wrong.” I pray to myself that I need to keep that promise. She nods and hugs us once again as Mel and Linds take her arm and start to walk out the door. “I hope you go to hell.” Brianna tells him before walking out, crying. “Thanks.” Justin and I both whisper. “I wasn’t going to hurt them. They are just kids. But now that we are all alone, I really have a few things to say before I shoot you. I am only going to shoot Brian because I want Justin to suffer the loss I have felt. I thought about killing Justin and making you pay, but with your heart, you would think of him for a day and then find another trick.” I feel Justin squeeze my hand to let me know he doesn’t believe it. “You might as well kill us both then because I couldn’t live without him.” I hear Justin say, but I step forward. “No, fine if you aren’t going to kill him, let him go too.” I see him smile. “No, unlike Brianna, I want the picture of you lying in a pool of your own blood to remain with him.” He smirks once more. “Look, let’s just work this out. You want a job; I’ll give you one. But this isn’t the way to do this.” I try to reason with him. He looks at me, smirks and laughs. “Fuck you Kinney. I want nothing from you but your blood.” He points the gun at me. “Kip please wait. You want to fuck me, fine. I won’t fight you. Just don’t hurt Brian.” Justin is now in front of me. “Move, Taylor. I will have you after Kinney is shot and lying there, and in his last breath he will hear me cum inside of your tight ass.” Smirking once again he raises the gun to point at me. “I won’t move.” Justin tells us. “I was a Colonel in the USAF with a level four specialty in ballistics, I can shoot Brian without even scathing you Sunshine.” He smiles widely. “When did you have time for this?” I ask. “Before meeting you I was in the USAF and then once I didn’t have a job, I went back in for a few years. But the whole point is that I can kill you without harming the pretty blond.” He smirks as he cocks the gun and then the room if full of gunfire.
