Living With The Bad Boy

I was pulled after from him before I could even register what was happening. I stood there frozen in my spot with a blank head. It took me a while to recover from what just happened and that’s when it registered on me.

Once I was back to my normal state, I stared over at Aiden who was no longer standing on his two feet but was lying helplessly on the floor with Alex on top of him, throwing several punches non stop at him. I couldn’t move, I couldn’t say anything. I couldn’t bring myself to say anything. I was still in shock.

Aiden was making lame attempts at punching Alex whereas Alex was doing that which he promised to do. He was hitting Aiden’s head profusely on the floor. He punched his face and stomach continuously without mercy. If he wasn’t stopped immediately, he’ll actually keep to his promise of murdering Aiden.

It was a bitch ass thing for Aiden to do by kissing someone’s girlfriend right in front of him. But I still had to stop Alex. I just have to, if not. Aiden will be gone.

I couldn’t move, I couldn’t even find my voice. The rain which was falling had stopped long ago before Aiden arrived. The cold air hit my skin miserably as I stared at a pending murder scene. I wanted to stop them but I was frozen. I couldn’t form a coherent sentence or even move.

Aiden was already covered in so much blood that I couldn’t recognize him well anymore. Aiden was a great fighter but I guess the anger Alex had building inside him was too strong that he would kill Aiden without a second thought if something wasn’t done fast.

I have to think of something, anything . My mind also seemed to be frozen because of the shock. I never expected such a thing from Aiden and now Alex is busy digging his grave.

I stared at them again. Aiden had stopped attempting punches at Alex, he had given up. He just laid there, receiving punch after punch without retaliation. I wanted to yell at Alex to stop but I couldn’t. I wanted to do anything, anything to stop what was happening and was about to happen but I just couldn’t. I was confused and blank.

I felt a bit happy that Alex loved me so much that he was willing to kill for me but also I felt sad that the person he was killing is not only my friend but the only grandson of the woman I called my granny. If anything happens to Aiden, she’d never survive it. He was all she has. He’s her world and I knew if from a very long time ago.

“What’s going on here?” My mother’s high-pitched voice asked as my eyes averted to the front door when she stood with both hands on her hip. Her presence seemed to revive me but not stop Alex. Alex was too busy on his murder mission.

“Alex? What are you doing here. Oh my goodness what are you doing?” My mum squeaked as she rushed over to where we were. I also rushed over ro Alex trying to pull him away from Aiden.

“Stop it Alex! You’ll kill him” I yelled at him as my continuous attempt at pulling him away from Aiden failed.

“This mother fucking asshole deserves to die and imma rip his intestines out tonight” He spat as he continued his assault, ignoring my mum and I.

“Stop it please Alex, you’ll kill him please” I begged.

“No, he must die!” Alex was in no way joking and I could see it clearly.

“Alex stop this, I’ll call your mom” My mum said as she equally tried stopping him.

“Call whoever you wanna call but I ain’t stopping till he stops breathing. His breath is driving me insane!” He said stupidly. If only he understands the implications of what he’s trying to do but then I forgot Alex is a guy with nuts for brains and he thinks with his buttocks.

“Alex please stop, I’ll call the police” I threatened with hopes that he’d stop but he didn’t, instead he increased his pace. Aiden’s surely has more than one life for him to still be breathing even at this point.

“I ain’t stopping this his fucking ass heart stops beating, I’ll make sure there’s no love in his heart anymore” Alex is being crazy and there’s no way I know of to stop him.

“Mum please do something, please stop him!” I pleaded.

“Yes, I’m coming, let me get my phone, I’m dialing his mom” She said and rushed back into the house.

“Alex please stop, please” I cried as I felt my head heavy but he didn’t stop. The more punches he threw at Aiden, the more my vision became blurry.

“Liv!” was the last thing I heard as I fell into Alex’s arms.
