Max and the rest of the flock besides me and Iggy went out to get food. Iggy was going to go but I guess he figured I could use the company. My day has been crappy especially when i'm called names behind my back. Since Nate found out what I was he would make fun and have me fighting people everyday at school. Iggy doesn't know and that's the way i'm trying to keep it.
"Nudge do you want to talk about it?" I want to tell him no but whats the harm and telling him how shitty my life really is.
"Sure. Where to stop. Nate found out what I was and now I fight everyday at school to keep everybody from hurting me." My breathing gets shaky and I have a hard time breathing. "It does no good though i'm called horrid names behind my back. Max and Fang tell me to let it go and let it slide off my back but it's so hard and I don't know how much longer I can do it." I start crying and before I can pull away i'm in Iggy's arms.
"Nudge why haven't you said anything until now? I would have been there for you. I might be blind but I can still kick major ass." I laugh as does he. I cry a little more in his arms.
"I'm going to get a shower and head to bed thanks for listening to me." He nods and I half run to the bathroom.
I turn on the shower and step in as the water hits my back I wince and cry out in pain. I bite my lip and try to muffle the rest of my cries. I lift my arms and even this simple task hurts. Being beat for what I am sucks. I hurry and get out of the shower and pull my towel off the rack and dry off.
"Holy shit Nudge what is with all the bruises?" Iggy ask. I hurry and pull my tank down over my bra. He is standing next to me in a matter of seconds. He touches my back and I wince.
"Great time to get your vision back. Iggy please leave it alone." Anger crosses his face.
"The hell I will I will show this prick not to lay a hand on you. He has to learn Nudge." My anger begins to surface.
"Just leave it alone Iggy I can take care of it myself!" I yell.
"I won't leave it alone and you can't or you won't. You don't know how to stand up for yourself." Ouch. "You can't always be the person you want to be. Trust me I know. I need you to tell the others or I will." I want to punch him in the face but refrain myself.
"Just leave me the hell alone I can handle it and don't say a damn word to anyone. Its not your place!" With that I storm out of the bathroom and into my room, slamming the door to make a point.
I lay on my bed and look out the window, I hear a knock on the door.
"Leave me alone i'm trying to sleep." A lie but they leave. A tear escapes my eye. Finally sleeps finds me but there is no escape to my troubles.
I'm in the halls of the school but the walls are covered with blood and Nate stands in the middle of the carnage. Iggy is standing next to Nate laughing and pointing at me and thats when I realize my wings are out and everyone can see them. The laughter begins to multiply and then the Flock joins in on the fun.
"Stop!" I yell but there is no end and they begin to box me in. I sink to the floor and put my hands on my head and cover my ears. I rock back and forth until a set of hands steadies me. Iggy.
"I thought you said you could take care of it?" He ask. I smile and wrap my arms around him. "Take me home please." He nods and i'm back in my bed.
I wake and Iggy is holding me in his arms and all I can do is smile.
"I heard you yelling, so I came in here to wake you but it didn't work. I was so worries..." He stops talking and looks at me.
"Your my midnight hero." I lean up and kiss him. He doesn't hesitate in answering me back. He meets me urgency and all I can do is smile in the kiss. Well you know what happens next I don't have to explain that part.
Iggy is my Midnight Hero. And nothing is going to change that.
