~Chapter 4~
"He- he was my brother." I start to tear up and a salty tear leaves my now red eyes.
"Are you ok?" I can't believe he asked this. Can't he see that I am crying. I see he is naive. Of course I'm not ok.
"I'm fine." I say these words bitterly trying to indicate that something is wrong. Understand me when I say I am NOT an attention seeker. I just want someone to know that I am sad.
"Wanna talk about it?"
"Yes please." He gives me a hug as I keep sobbing
"Do you have any other siblings?"
"Actually, I did."
"What happened to them?"
"She is gone. I hope they are in a nice place though. Anastasia kind of killed herself. Marcus died because of cancer. I was the youngest in the family so I had no idea what all of it meant. Anna (Anastasia) was the oldest as well. She cut to deep, that's why I make sure I am carful-"
"Wait! You don't cut yourself do you?" I look to the ground ashamed of myself "You do don't you. Show me now!" He moves my hand around uncovering white scars where I had cut earlier. They were in the last stages of healing, I guess they hadn't fully healed. "You can't do anything like this. It is not worth it! I had the same problem with my mother! That's why she isn't here! I don't want to lose anyone else because of this! It is stupid! Nothing can ever bee this bad!" He starts tearing up. He asks "Why did you start?"
"It is to be none of your concern! I don't want to talk about it." I say quietly.
"The only way you can help is to assess the situation! Please just tell me."
"Fine! It all started when both of my siblings; left me. I got really lonely. My parents kept telling me they just went on a holiday to one of the greatest places ever created, they said it was called 'Heaven' I thought it was just some place. I waited and waited for them to come back. But they never did. After a few years, they told me truth. They said that they had died, that they were gone and I will be able to see them one day. Us three w-were the best of friends so I just wanted to see them! I tried to leave my world a couple times, putting a bag over my head and putting belts around it. I was almost gone once but the bag broke keeping me alive. News of this got around school and people started picking on me, throwing plastic bags at me. Some even through belts. I became a target for them!" I start to cry even louder.
"It is ok, I'm here. You don't have to keep telling me if you don't want to." I keep going with the story as I can see he really does want to hear more.
"It started getting out of hand when I got these voices in my head basically telling me that I was never good enough and I just couldn't stop. It is the only way I could stop the voices." I start to move to the corner and take out my dagger. Fenrir stands still until he sees the blade. He runs to me.
"Stop!" I cut anyway. A spec of blood touched the dress leaving a red stain.
"My mother started drinking-" one cut "She started hitting me and abusing me!" another cut "My dad was killed in a car accident!" another cut deeper into my arm. Fenrir try's to stop me but I run and yell once more "I AM ALL ALONE! I HAVE NO FRIENDS, NO FAMILY I MIGHT AS WELL JUST MEET THEM IN THE PLACE CALLED HEAVAN!!!" I cut 6 more times, 2 on my neck, 1 on top of my wrist, 1 on my stomach and 2 higher up my arm. Fenrir grabs hold of me watching the blood trickle down my arm.
*Katelyn faints*
~Fenrir's POV~
Katelyn faints into my arms after the plenty of cuts she received from herself. I grab the dagger and it disappears back into her belt. That was strange but I will figure that out later.
"SOMEONE HELP!!!!!! NOW!" My father comes to me, wide eyes watching the blood fall onto her dress. He is shocked. Tears well into his eyes.
"I knew she was a fighter! Come, we need to get her to the infirmary, NOW! Come on Fenrir, hurry up! We need to go. I can't loose anyone else, not after... Come NOW!" I follow my dad's orders and pick Katelyn up bridal style and run to the infirmary.
"Don't you dare die! I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU IF YOU DO!"
My father and I rush through the halls and reach the infirmary. Blood is all over her dress. The flower in her hair is sleeping, not much use. I try to wake the flower up as we place Katelyn on one of the beds.
The flower opens up "What is the problem? Oh, my, gosh! Whats happened to Katelyn?! TELL ME NOW!" screams the little flower "Katelyn, KATELYN! WAKE YO ASS UP!" she says this in a ghetto voice it is hilarious but I try not to laugh. This is serious. Katelyn stays still. I feel for her pulse, it is only little.
"We have to save her!" Yells the king "She is to be my daughter in law!" he booms
"Is that all you care about? Me getting married? Why? Why her? All she has is the looks that you 'need' to finish a damn prophecy! You don't even care about her personality. You only want her safe so I can marry her!" I let all of these words dribble out of my mouth.
"That's not-"
"Yes it is and you know it! Nurse. Please help her. She can't leave! Not now! She is only 18, she can't die. She is all alone. Before she dies I don't want her to feel that way so she is not dying on my hands!"
Katelyn starts to move slightly. "It's ok." I caress her head.
"F- Fenrir" Katelyn says in a very week voice.
"Yes. Tell me anything."
"The bandages. Water. Towels. You will know what to do." With that Katelyn lies back down. Her pulse is getting slower.
"Everyone move out of my way!" Everyone moves and lets me help her. I get what she asks, bandages, water and towels. She was right. I do know what to do. I get a towel and wipe all the blood away from her pail skin. I then pour water on all 10 wounds, I wipe the water away with my towels again. Everyone is silent. I wrap the bandages around the wounds.
"One more thing I n- need. The flowers pe- petal. I need them under the-" she stops and puts her head back down instantly. I hold her hand tightly.
"Someone get me those flowers that were on her earlier." My dad runs away and comes back with a hand full of pretty flowers. I find a few and pick off the petals "as long as it will save Katelyn." the flowers all say. I keep picking petals putting them under the bandages. The petals touch her wounds and Katelyn smiles when a golden light appears underneath. I watch her sit up. I check her pulse again. It is stabilising. Crisis averted. Everyone in the room starts rejoicing, Katelyn hugs me "Thank you. Thank you so much."
My father decides to chime in "Now that you are better-"
"Let me guess... try on more wedding gowns?" Katelyn smirks
"Uh; yes I was actually. Fenrir, thank you for everything but you must be off. You cannot see the brides dress."
I can see a tear slip from Katelyn's eye. I reply boldly "No."
"But you can't see the dress."
"I don't care. I want to have Katelyn stay in here for as long as she needs too, getting the respect she deserves." I look at the guard that had been cruel to her earlier, he does not make eye contact instead looking to the floor "Is that understood?" I look at my father again he doesn't meet my eyes either "Is that understood?" I say a little louder. They all look down and nod "Good. Now all of you leave. I will stay and I will accompany her." All of the people in the room left me and Katelyn. I have never took charge like that. I can't believe my father obeyed me as well. I wasn't expecting that. He is so stubborn.
Katelyn smiles at me "Thank you. Thank you so much. You will meke a fine king someday. I just know it." I see Katelyn try to get up.
"Now you don't move one muscle. Just ask me for something I I will make sure you get it."
~Katelyn's POV~
"Now you don't move one muscle. Just ask me for something I will make sure you get it."
"ok. Thank you. But there is something I need."
"what is it?"
"My soul." I look into the distance past him and we crack up laughing. I do like him as a friend. He is awesome.
I tryto get up again. "You know. I can take care of myself."
"I know."
"Then why don't you let me?"
"I said that I would get everything for you. Don't move a muscle."
"I see you are trying to get all firm with me."
"Is it working?"
"Not one bit."
We both start to laugh at each other as I get up to get a glass of water from a nearby tap.
Hey guys. I hope you liked chapter 4! Please tell me what you think and I will be making more types of books. I hope you are having a lovely day and I will write to you next time.
