The aftermath

Darrien 

He has been in my arms for almost an hour and the way he is clutching on to me just makes this all the more intense. I can sense the fear in his voice. He is frightened and I can't help but look around the room and the damage that occurred. 

It is obvious that Jabi is the one that did all this but I can't even picture him being this violent. I can't imagine him breaking someone apart so badly and even if Lenny fucking deserved it, I don't want this to happen again. 

The bloodstains on his clothes are on mine now, I don't care about that. Just having him here and alive is all that matters to me. 

"I am sorry,'' he breathes out. 

Slowly, I pull away to look at him and his eyes are teary with all the blood all over his face.

"You didn't do anything, there is no reason why you have to apologize.'' 

He closes his eyes for a second but they are back open immediately "I am the one that did this. I killed him."
