Finding out the News
I woke up and felt a blanket on top of me. It was soft. I sat up and looked outside. The sun looked like it was setting.
' There goes my weekend. Tomorrow we have school. '
I stood up from the bed and walked to the door. I opened it and peeked outside the room. I saw no one in the hallway. It was empty. I stepped outside the room and walked towards the stairs. I walked down them and towards the front door. I opened it and started on my way home. It didn't take long and once I got there I opened my door and locked it.
' Now to do something to stay up for a little longer. '
I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dialed James' mothers' number.
" Hello? "
" Hi. This is Y/n. I was wondering how James was doing. "
" Y/n? James is dead. He died earlier today. We don't know how, but he died. We think someone pulled his plug. "
" What? "
" Yeah. Someone pulled his plug. We don't know who yet. The video footage was deleted or stolen from the security cameras. "
" Oh my god. "
I hung up the phone and set it on my table. I stumbled to my couch and collapsed. The tears came and never left. They continued and continued to come. I didn't get any sleep that night. I couldn't. When I checked the time I realized that I needed to get ready for school. I walked to my room and showered. I put my uniform on and grabbed my backpack.
' Just get through the day. Just get through the day. '
" Y/n! "
I looked behind me and saw Akane and Miro running towards me. I waved at them as they got closer.
" Hey, guys. Sorry. I'm not in the mood today. "
" Oh. Why? What happened? " Miro asked.
" James died. Yesterday. Someone pulled his plug and stole the camera footage. "
" Oh. I'm sorry. " Akane said.
" Me too. " Miro said with her smile fading.
" Don't apologize. Let's just go to school. "
" Okay. "
It was silent all the way to school. I didn't say a thing. I was too stuck in my mind to say or do anything. It wasn't until we got to class they said something.
" Oliver was asking about you. "
" What did he say? "
" He asked where you went. He said you were at his house and he said you left without telling him. He was worried. " Akane said.
" Oh. "
" Yeah. He said he was worried about you. "
" I see. "
" He's been talking about you a lot Y/n. " Miro said with venom in her voice.
I looked back at her. Her eyes showed anger. I was already done with this petty fight and it just started.
" Miro I don't want to have this little petty fight. I'm just his friend that's all we are. He was just being nice. I was torn up yesterday. He took me to his place to rest, and I left without telling anyone. It's not my fault he's worried. "
The anger in her eyes left, but I could still see a glimpse of it in her eyes.
" Go after him if you want, and if you would get your head out of your imagination to see how broken I am without James then I don't know what to tell you. Do you really think I'm the type of person to date someone after her fiance, who loved him for 3 years, died and start dating again? "
The anger left her eyes completely and I turned around in my seat. They left and started walking towards there class and I stared at my desk.
" Hey, Y/n. "
I looked and saw Oliver sitting at his desk. I waved to him and looked back down at my desk.
" Y/n? "
" What is it, Oliver? "
" What's wrong? "
" James died yesterday. Someone pulled his plug and took the security footage. "
" Oh my god really? "
" Yeah. "
" I'm so sorry Y/n. "
I looked at him and saw nothing in his eyes. I turned my head back towards the front and stared at the blackboard at the front. The bell rang signaling that class was starting.
" Thanks, Oliver, but I don't need apologies. "
" Are you sure? "
" I just want James back. "
' That's all I want. '
I looked at the board as the teacher taught the class. I could barely focus on the work. My mind was away and not focusing on anything. Before I knew it the bell rang for the students to get to the next class. I stood up and started walking out of the classroom. I walked to my locker and then towards my class. I took my seat beside Akane, Miro, and Oliver. They all looked at me with concern, but Miro went on ahead and talked to Oliver.
' She must really like him to think I would steal him after my fiance died. '
I looked over at them and saw Akane's glare at Miro.
' Akane to. I might lose both of them if I don't choose my words carefully about Oliver. They shouldn't think I have any feelings for him though, cause I don't. If Oliver has any for me then I'm not going to return them. I can't James was my one true love. No one will be able to replace him. '
I felt a tear trickle down my cheek. I wiped it away and got prepared to lay my head down for the movie the teacher would surely play. I need rest for at least an hour.
