Chapter 29
His breathing was labored and he was pale, we've gotten shot at before and this never happens, something was wrong.
"Brick?" I asked, walking to his bedside.
He was pretty out of it, his eyes were half open and kept drooping, he was forcing himself to stay awake. "Finally, I thought you'd never come..." His voice was strained.
Tears slowly ran down my face, brick was in pain because of me. "I'm so sorry, brick, I'm sorry..." I whispered, my voice was cracked.
"Hey," He whispered, his hand slowly reached up to caress my cheek, "Don't cry, everyone needs to stop blaming themselves it's just going to eat us alive, you were lied to and protecting us and I choose to jump in front of that bullet, that was my decision and no one could ever change that." He wiped away my tears and then grabbed my hand, kissing it lightly.
He started to fall asleep but he jolted awake and forced himself to stay up, "Just go to sleep, you need to rest."
"Okay, mom." He smirked but it was weak and with that his eye lids fell entirely and light snores came from his lips. I made my way to the door, "Oh bloss," I turned around to see him speaking with his eyes closed, "Logan didn't shoot at me or anyone in there, the other guy did..." He passed out completely.
Rusty didn't shoot at me, that other guy did... Something was completely wrong here and I plan to find out.
I walked out and everyone snapped their heads up, "He's sleeping now."
"Should someone stay here, just in case?" The professor offered, I knew he meant I should stay.
"He's right, Butch and Boomer would you guys like to stay?" I asked them making them giving me confused look.
"You don't wanna stay?" Boomer asked like I had grown a second head.
"I have some stuff I need to take care of, when I finish I'll stay over night till then I'll see you guys tomorrow." I stated back to my old self.
They seemed a little shocked but buttercup smirked, "Alright, be safe." She stated and we said goodbye.
I walked down the hall and made my way home. I hurry and showered then dried my hair and rapped it in the towel. I changed into a black pencil skirt, my ruffly pink blouse and pink high heels. I put my hair in a pony tail with my red ribbon, applying light make up. I grabbed my bag filled with everything I needed.
I left to the police station, walking to the secretaries desk, "Hello Miss. Utonium, did you help with something?"
"Yes actually I'd like to see Logan Wickets."
"We actually don't have anyone in by that name." She said after typing on her computer.
"How about Rusty Mc Craw?" I asked.
"Yes, he is in here." She handed me a visitors badge and had an officer escort me.
I sat down on the metal chair, one leg over the other. I pulled out my tape recorder and notepad and pencil. A buzz sound came from the door and Rusty came in wearing orange and handcuffs.
He seemed shocked to see me but sat down, an officer stayed, "It's okay." He nodded and walked out.
Time to find out the real truth...
