My knees are shaking horribly as he looks me in the eyes. Every part of me feels stiff and I'm breathing so fast I can't get enough air in my lungs.
He takes a sip of his whiskey and starts walking around me. "Are you going to stay quiet like last time?"
My mind is blank and each time I feel weaker and weaker. "You know, I waited for you. Not one or two hours but for the whole night. You never showed up."
He's behind me now and he puts his mouth against my ear. "You never showed up, Nikki. You left me hanging like an idiot when you said you'd be there."
He grabs my waist with one hand and I gasp loudly. "I might be crazy over you, Nikki but I won't let you make a fool out of me."
His grips tightens more and I squeeze my eyes shut. "I told you I could make your dreams come true. I was willing to do whatever to make you famous, to put you in a movie, to make you a model. To make you wanted. I was willing to do all of that and all for one condition only."
"I just wanted you to be good to me baby. I wanted you to only be with me and to only stay with me. That's all I asked for baby. But you didn't do what I asked you to do."
He kisses my neck and I bite the inside of my cheek harshly. He slowly walks in front of me and he throws his cup on the ground.
"Who are you with now?" He sounds calm and that's scary. I'm unable to talk and he steps closer to me. "Who are you with?"
"Does he give you more money than I do? Is he more good looking than I am? Tell me, Nikki. Who are you with?" His voice has gotten louder.
My eyes start stinging because I can't even blink. A knot is starting to form on my throat and my stomach is in knots.
"Ah. You don't want to speak. Very well. I will find out either way." He says as he starts caressing my face.
He stays quiet for a few seconds although it feels like an eternity. He grabs my face and then he finally speaks up again.
"I wanted you to be my wife. That's how much you mean to me. I had never thought of getting married until I met you."
He brings my face closer to his and kisses my cheek. "I really do adore you, love. You're so beautiful and so precious."
He puts his lips against mine but doesn't kiss me. I'm looking into his eyes because I feel like I'm compelled.
"But I'm going to have to kill you." He says quietly. My eyes start filling up with tears and soon fat acid tears fall from my eyes.
"I don't want to but I have to. I can't live knowing you're not with me. I can't live knowing you're going to have sex with other men. I just can't." He brings me close to his chest and hugs me tightly.
The tears keep falling from my eyes and my whole life starts flashing through my mind. I start remembering flashbacks when I was small. From the moment I was in pre-k to the moment I graduate high school.
I remember my mom, JJ, and Brie. I remember how long it's been since I've seen them and talked to them. I remember how badly I want to hug them.
But now I won't get to. Ever.
He pulls away and he sighs. His eyes are red and he looks deeply sad. He opens his suit jacket and I see a gun on the side.
He slowly pulls it out and starts a bringing it up. I'm still crying silently as he puts the gun against my forehead.
I shake my head no because I can't speak. "I have to." He responds. I close my eyes as more tears keep falling. "Don't cry." He says.
"I said don't cry." He says this louder and I can't stop crying. I can smell death and every part of me is paralyzed.
"Don't cry!" He screams. I wince and start sobbing. "Dammit, Nikki. I said don't cry." He presses the gun harder against my forehead.
I'm still closing my eyes because I don't want to see him when he does it. I'm wondering if it's going to hurt a lot. Will I feel lots of pain? Or will it be quick?
"Roman. Put the gun down." I open my eyes when I hear Seth's voice behind me. "Get out of here, Rollins. This is not about you." Roman responds.
"Roman, listen to me put the gun down. You're drunk. Just put it down and we can talk." From the corner of my eye I can see Seth approaching him.
"I said stay out of it, Rollins." Roman hisses. "Don't do anything stupid." Seth says. "Rollins mind your own business and stay out of it!" Roman screams.
"You have to calm down and listen to me, Roman. If you shoot her it's going to be scandalous and I'd like to remind you that we're here to make a good impression. Orton won't like it if you do something stupid like this."
"I don't care about Orton. I don't care about making a good impression. I just want her dead."
He's about to pull the trigger and Seth tackles him. Seth falls on top of Roman and the gun is shot in the air.
I scream stepping back as I watch Seth trying to hold him down. Roman pushes him off and gets up angrily.
Seth gets up too and Roman looks beyond furious. "I told you to stay out of it." Roman swings at Seth and then he turns around to look at me.
Just as he's about to step closer to me Seth grabs him from behind and pulls him back. "Run!" He screams.
I'm still in shock from everything that happened that I don't move. "Run!" He screams again.
I finally snap out of it and start running towards the entrance. I hear them fighting behind me as I'm approaching the door.
The guards open the door and they're running to see what happened. "Hey, where are you going?" One of them says but I don't stop.
I keep running until I'm outside. I keep running until I'm past the parked cars. I keep running until I'm in the words. I keep running until I'm out of breath.
My head is spinning and I squeeze my eyes shut grabbing my head. Everything that just happened is circling in my mind. How was I so stupid to do this?
I end up bumping into someone and I open my eyes scared. When I see that it's Dean I hug him tightly.
I squeeze my eyes shut tightening my grip around him. "Where were you madam?" He asks alarmed.
I pull away so I can answer but I can't because I'm panting too much. He looks in the distance and grabs my hand.
"We have to go right now ma'am." He quickly pulls me along and starts running. I turn my face and look at the mansion in the distance.
Some guards have started to come out and they must be looking for me. As the mansion gets smaller and smaller I feel my heart and chest tighten.
Seth's still in there.
