Chapter 16: I Thought You Knew I Was Stubborn, Sis. (Alenora)
Have you ever woken up with someone shaking you, screaming about somebody you love and know that is in the infirmary, you almost getting a heart attack? Well, let me tell you, if you haven't, it isn't a pleasant feeling at all. Now I understood how does people who like somebody see their love ones with another person that is not them, their heartbeats increasing and a squeeze on their chest. I felt like that when Esme woke me up—I didn't even know I had fallen asleep—my chest squeezing tightly as she told me does five words.
"Blake is at the infirmary!"
I knew right away why and how. She had most likely fainted from low blood pressure, something I usually get and something very rare for her. She hadn't eaten and the worst part is that she had fainted. I felt guilty, because I wasn't with her because I was angry. I was just plain stubborn enough to not forgive her for the stupidest of arguments. She was only there, Kye was the one that angered me the most and I was still not talking to him.
I left everything behind, my stuffs beside the Latino boy who was as confused as ever, laying there with his elbows supporting him up as Esme followed my sprinting figure. Sometimes, when I want to, I can be pretty fast, but since my twin was in danger—yeah, I don't care if I am exaggerating—I was faster.
I got to the infirmary in no time, bursting the door open to see her sleeping on the infirmary bed, Kayden on her right side grabbing her hand, fingers intertwined. I stared in shock, blinking in the doorway with their heads already turning towards me. Kye was not angry at what Kayden was doing and Calvin seemed to be fucking okay with it. Was I the only one seeing this with this perspective? Because I just think something happened between them but was actually cut off when she fainted, only for her to fall on his arms..... Meh, don't know and don't care. Her life is hers, not mine.
I took a step, but stopped, fearing that she'll wake up and be angry at me for coming to her when she was only feeling ill, their gaze making it worse. It felt as if I wanted to touch something new but couldn't or I'll be in trouble. Yes, does moments I partially hate so much. I am afraid to touch my sister.
I turn from her to Kayden, asking him if I could through my eyes. He nodded, smiling a small smile at me before standing up from his seat since the left side of her was occupied by the doctor. She was such a sweetheart, she actually believed in me when I said I felt ill. I like the old lady. Anyway, I walk past the three boys, seating on the seat and staring down at her peaceful figure.
"You know what, you are very dumb sometimes. I told you to eat." I said to her as if she could respond to me right now, but I felt she could hear me in this state.
I grabbed her hand, bringing it to my forehead, eyes watering. I hated crying, don't get me wrong, especially in front of people, but it was my fault. I should have stayed. I shouldn't have been mad at her when I was mad at Kye. Again I was so stubborn and stupid.
"I am sorry, I wasn't mad at you, I was mad at Kye-" I trailed of, Kye in the background saying, "I am right here." before I continued, placing her hand down, "I just thought you knew I was stubborn, sis. Can you forgive me?"
I waited, waiting for her to wake up and say, 'I forgive you.' Though, it never came. She stayed still, Mrs. Pignati going to her desk to write a report, the only thing moving was her chest. (Whoever gets this, you are the best).
I sighed, standing up and I started to walk again past the guys, heading towards the door, feeling Kye follow behind me. After I passed the doorway, I prepared myself to run away from him, only for him to grab my wrist before I could, turning me around and pulling me towards his chest.
I glared at him, squirming on his tight grip only for him to grab my other wrist, making me vulnerable immediately. I so hated him being stronger than me. Yeah, like right now I hate that.
"We need to talk."
"There is nothing to talk about." I grumble, trying to pull away from his chest. Since it was class period, the hallways were empty and nobody could call him to let me go, much to my dismay. Why aren't the teachers there when you actually need them?
"We do, Alex. I am sorry for snapping on you and screaming at you. I shouldn't have done that. I don't want you girls to be in danger, I want to protect you both. But that isn't my job. I am just your best friend and I understand that, but as your best friend, I see you as my little sisters and big brothers protect their little sisters. Can you let me help you next time?" I stared at him in disbelief, not believing what I am hearing at all.
Did he just say he was to fight beside me when we get bullied? Like does action and superhero movies?
"Mmm, I like the idea. I forgive you, bro." I laugh, bro fisting with him before jumping on his arms for a hug, sighing at myself as he hugs me back.
I am telling you, I am to stubborn for my own good.
