The Boy Next Door Page #6

just feels,

I don't know, wrong.

See, my guess, Vicky,

is that, uh, you don't

like to be bullied.

I mean, who would?

But that's what you were

doing to me today.

You and Claire.

Now, the two of you,

with your little secrets.

You were playing a joke.

A silly little game.

Trying to make me think

that you were her,

so she could do what?

Something sneaky?

Something...

She's hiding from me?

What was it, Vicky?

No, no, no.

Let me.

Vicky!

Listen, I am pretty sure

that Noah tampered with the

brakes on his parents' car

and that's why they crashed.

And I'm pretty sure he did

the same thing to Garrett's.

Claire, I need you.

I need to talk.

Can you come over?

Vicky?

Vicky! Are you upstairs?

Vicky?

Vicky.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

911. What's your emergency?

Out!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

You killed Vicky!

For you. For you, okay?

She wasn't your friend, Claire!

Hey, hey, hey!

When I love somebody,

I protect them.

That's what heroes do.

No heroes kill their

mothers and fathers!

I would never ever

hurt my mother.

I loved my mother,

but she killed herself.

My cheating father and his whore

got what they deserved.

But, hey.

I protect people I love.

This is all for you.

Okay?

No!

Now, let's go.

Garrett!

Garrett!

Oh, my God!

What did you do to him?

Well, he ran into

a 14-inch crescent wrench.

Mom!

Kevin!

Noah, you hurt my mom,

I swear to God...

Really, Kevin?

I would never hurt your mother.

I love your mother.

Just steady your breathing, baby!

And honestly,

I'd hoped you'd see me

as a mentor who cared about you

more than your

cheating father ever did.

Tell him, Claire.

Do you need your shot?

Mom.

You know, it's destiny, Claire.

And you can't

interfere with destiny.

Mom.

We're meant to be.

And Garrett

needs to know that.

Wake up! Hey, wake up!

It's gonna be okay.

You know, I was going

to take Kevin with us.

Seems like he's got too

much of his father in him.

No, he needs to go.

No! No, no, no.

No, he's not like

his father at all.

Noah, you've taught him.

You've changed him.

All right.

All right, then, uh...

He'll come with us.

Yes.

Form our own family.

Mom! Mom!

Please, Noah!

Please, just stop this!

Let me help you.

There's still time.

There's no time.

This is our time!

You'll never be lovelier

than you are right now!

We will never be here again!

What are you doing?

Building a funeral pyre.

What does it look like?

You can't do this!

No!

Stop!

I'm sick and tired of everyone

going back and forth!

So, it's time to

make a choice, my love!

You either live with me

or you die with them.

No! No!

Take Kev and get out of here!

Ahhh!

No! No!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Stay with me, Garrett!

Garrett, stay with me!

Stay with me!

All right.

Let's go, Claire.

You'll see.

You and me. Off-grid.

There is nothing

I wouldn't do for you.

You can trust me.

But, Noah,

you can't trust me!

Die, you piece of f***ing sh*t!

No!

Ahhh!

Sorry, buddy,

but sometimes even heroes

have to make tough choices.

Noah!

Noah! Noah!

You're no hero!

I'm here.

I'm right here.

All right, guys, lift on three.

One, two, three.

Me and Kevin

are right here, sweetie.

We got him now, ma'am.

Don't you worry.

He's gonna be fine.

Just hang in there.

Hang in there.

You're gonna be okay.

You're going to be okay.

And then we're gonna go home.

You hear me?

We're going home.
