Lightning Doesn't Strike Twice!

Chapter 6: Chapter 6



Chapter 6

 

Blood began to seep out from my shirt. D pulled my shirt up, at any other time I would have been embarrassed but I knew he was just trying to assess the problem. Even I didn't know what was going on. I had a large wound on my stomach.

Holy shit D said, way too out loud. You're bleeding badly what caused this?

Doubled in pain I couldn't talk.

Beck told to D it was in a dog fight with my small dog and a much larger dog.

D looked at the crowd starting to form from all the commotion we were stirring up.

With no hesitation after hearing about what happened. He quickly and carefully picked me up and dashed to the nurse's office before the crowd could close in.

Kaysi, I need you to stay awake you're losing a lot of blood hold your stomach as hard as you can.

I got to the nurse's office and she moved my hands just to see the blood pouring more. D put his hands on my stomach immediately. As I was getting weaker. I hurt and the pain was growing more intense. 

I don't think coming to school was a good idea D said, shapely with both worry and frustration.

I don't think, I don't have enough training the school nurse told me this wound needs stitches. So she called 911; the ambulance was on its way keep pressure she said looking at D.

This is the second time I've seen D's that had a softer side to him. But this time he looked like a ghost with worry.

You're alright be, he whispered to me.

I felt like that was a lie to make me feel better. 

I smiled up at him and told him I was sorry.

My intrusive thoughts made me want to look at myself currently.

But I dared not do something so stupid and I was too weak.

The Paramedics were finally there. Who Is this? As I passed out I accidentally said, my boyfriend instead of a guy that's my friend. Moments before I passed out.

When I came to he was sitting in the chair next to me.

What are you doing here?

How did they let you in anyways?

The hospital only allowed close family most of the time.

D replied with a half-hearted smile they didn't want me to let go of you because you losing so much blood. And was keeping the pressure. You also had some of your intestine showing. 

Wooh… My stomach was hanging out. How is that possible?

They said after your first injury must re-tore yourself open. It opened and further tore when you twisted to move as you avoided the dodgeball. After surgery, they think the tear was from a bite or claw from the animal that attacked you.

They said, though it had to be a cougar or something. You told Beck it was a dog fight with your dog and another bigger dog. That I am assuming you got this injury.

He had this I am not believing your story look on his face. 

I don't get why you just bandaged yourself up and did not go to the hospital in the first place.

It was dark and I had an adrenalin high during the fight whatever it was.

I could tell he didn't by into this story either. But he didn't ask any more questions. I must be off the hook I thought to myself at least.

I went home after 4 days of healing and D visited me every day. One time his grandma even came by, She looked oddly identical to this lady once who was nice to me in elementary school.

Of course when I returned to school. Everyone at school was asking what happened even people I didn't know. They saw D rush off with me and the blood through the school. And of course, the ambulance made into the dramatics of everything.

Well at least, I gained a new popularity that day.

This one kid asked me about what happened then proceeded to start rumors about the story. The funny thing is even him I talked about D saving me no one would throw him into their stories I don't know why.

Many versions were floating around the school from I got cut open by a knife. I had a virus to made me throw up blood everywhere.

Kids will do anything to get cheap entertainment. D came up to me after school a couple of days later and asked me out on a date spontaneously.

He jokingly told me about how I was already calling him my boyfriend. He laughed, then told me what happened when we got into the ambulance talking to the paramedics as I was passing.

I told him yes.

I was already with him in after-school. I had to get help from the tutors after school to earn back some school credits. Needed from too many missed days of school while being in the hospital and appointments. 

This gave us more of a chance to hang out.

It was towards the end of the school year. Everything was going great he became the best boyfriend I ever had at this point in my life at least only ever having 2. He definitely respected me unlike the last.

The next semester we had a class that overlapped now with his. It was great whenever I was sick and would bring my papers to me. 

When I got back to school during class one day, D asked me out to the snowball dance at the end of winter.

He was a grade higher but he had to earn back some messed credits from missed days and was going to be graduating soon.

We had been dating for 2 weeks. 

I felt scared that we may have been moving too fast sometimes. He was looking at me as I hesitated.

Do you not know how to dance? Yes, II told him very shyly. But I could learn, as long as I could get my mom would take me.

Nor do I technically; but ain't it fun to try he said jokingly in a county voice.

Yeah D, it would be. Two dorks on a dance floor.

After our after-school studies and game room fun I was waiting for my mom outside of school.

I was leaning against the brick building feeling warmth from the sun. It was very warm for a winter day. The sun shone down and the cool wind blew through the trees. The birds sang as if it was springtime, was so peaceful and I relaxed leaning further back into the brick of the building.

I spoke up as D was observing me. Trying to figure out what world I was in. 

I enjoy and soak in the good days like this when everything goes right and perfect for once.

He smiled when I said that.

I closed my eyes a took a deep breath of the fresh air. The sweet moments like this I think built burnt into my mind and touched my soul.

What could be any better, than this I whispered.

As I stood there daydreaming D leaned over and kissed me. His lips pressed against mine were so soft. He lingered there just a bit. 

This was my first kiss.

Sway to the wind frozen I couldn't believe this was my first kiss. I started pondering that moment analyzing every detail. Wow, his lips were perfect not too wet and warm.

Can't say I felt normal. My face blushed and my heart was racing.

I guess I worried him. Was it bad? He said, out loud like it was not a big deal. I rather enjoyed it, with a smile. Contemplating thinking to myself.

Well this being my first time, how do I even know? What is a kiss was supposed to feel like?

D looked puzzled, I had no words.

I am sorry did I go too far? 

I guess you must not have liked it. I giggled lightly, no it's just different. You caught me off guard.

So I wasn't that good compared to what you had before then?

NO.. jeez for crying out loud, I felt like a dork. It was my first kiss and I didn't know what to think. Oh?

So was it good for you then?

Well, it was very sweet and warm is this what a kiss feels like I asked.

He burst into laughter. 

I had never seen him smile from ear to ear and laugh like he did.

You are a nerd it is your first then? Yeah, but you don't have to laugh like that I pouted. I smacked his bag off his shoulders.

Looking at us even though we had grown close, we didn't do things like other couples do. We never hung out at my house. Also, my mom would freak out. I didn't even have his number to talk to after school. I didn't think it would lead to this.

I thought it was just a casual middle school romance and I never thought anything like this would happen.

When came time for the winter ball D asked me to. My mom refused to get me a dress much less let me go to some ball.

I felt like Cinderella half the time anyway but this was rich. She didn't approve of me dating when she learned about it.

Mainly because she never met him was his excuse. But my mom never gave me any opportunity for friends to come over much less a guy.

I thought to tell her sooner, but I don't think It would have made a difference. We argued back and forth for a minute until she grounded me in my room.

But being underage and still living with my parents I didn't have much of a a choice.

From there on out I choose I would get emancipated That's where you prove to the courts you can be stable on your own at 15.

I would move out I had at least 2 1/2 more years until I was 18 but I figured me and D maybe could move in together.

I had missed the ball but I went up to D ready to tell him I was sorry and my plan for our new life together.

He didn't look happy. Hey D, I was about to speak when he just interrupted me!

Kaysi before you start with whatever you were about to say, I am breaking up with you.
