Alex screamed silently as suddenly all the weight was gone from his body. He started gasping for air like he just came out from under the water. The beautiful blond boy scrambled over to the other side of his rather large bed in a wild panic. His ears were ringing from the sound of the gun shot. He had never heard one before and it was the loudest thing he had ever heard.<br/><br/>He huddled into the corner, pulling his knees up to his chest and sort of yanked the blanket up to cover himself. He knew that Andreas was talking, but he couldn't make out what he was saying in the adrenaline, panic, fear and pain.<br/><br/>He covered his ears with both his hands as he trembled. Were more shots coming? They should. He could hear his father making noise from the floor. "Make it stop..." He whimpered.
