They’d been fine for so long and of course the minute Seth let himself feel safe… it was no longer. “I…” Seth shook his head, tears running down his cheeks. “I can’t risk you losing your life, Ell.” Seth whimpered before turning his head. “I-I’ll go back with you. On the condition that you let Elliot live.” He hated how easily he let himself be persuaded to go back – but when it came down to the man he loved being murdered if he didn’t? He just hoped Elliot wouldn’t hate him for his decision.
Elliot outright growled again. “I’ve been through worse.” he countered, still even as he stared down the gun. As Seth turned away from him, he felt his heart break. Damn it, he should have been more careful. They needed a place away from the city, since he was certain that too many public eyes had led to them being found. As Seth moved closer, he didn’t think, drawing the gun from the hidden holster at his back, aiming the gun at one of the three. “You touch him and I’ll kill all of you slow and painfully.”
