I kept my eyes closed until a gun went off. I jumped and covered my ears, waiting for pain. Nothing came. I slowly opened my eyes. Everyone was down on the ground and I was the only one standing. I looked and noticed Graham was also standing. We both looked into the middle of the street. Jeremy was in a pile on the road.
I pushed through everyone and walked to Jeremy. He was lying in a heap on the ground. He was still hanging on, but barely concious. He opened his eyes for the last time and said, "I love you."
I cried; I really did. I didn't know what had gotten into me. This person had tried to kill Graham and I and I was crying over his death. I bent down and kissed his forehead. Graham appeared behind me and I turned and hugged him tightly.
