Hey everyone, I know it's been a while since i've updated, but this chapter is more hurt / comfort chapter. Put up some more reviews, they make me happy.
Well im sitting in my bed..... In the dark not listening to music, yes you heard me. It's been three hours since I attempted to kill Chad (who wouldn't?) Chad and I didn't even take that damn smirk of his face, after a half hour Ruby came in, slapped me about five times for an unknown reason (yes 'unknown') then she started with the whole 'why'd you try and kill him thing' well to answer that question I pushed her out of my room and told her we would talk about it later. You're probably wondering why I haven't gone downstairs, well who knows what Chad will do after I just tried to kill him.
I eventually dragged myself out of bed and looked out my window. I saw that Misery had been struck by lightning.... again. Iris and Frank were behind a tree doing, god knows what. I leaned my head against the cool glass of the window and closed my eyes, just imagining that I was out there with them.
When I opened them I found myself on the floor and it was dark. When I got up and looked out the window I saw that everyone was gone' I must have fallen asleep' I thought. I let my eyes droop slightly, ready to go back to sleep. I heard my bedroom door open but I was to depressed and tired to turn around and was suppressed when I felt cool hands encircle my waste. I turned my head slightly and fire like red hair filled my vision.
"Ruby, are you ok?" I asked. I turned around and she hugged me tighter and buried her head in my chest. I looked at her and was shocked at what I saw. She had a bruise covering the left side of her face, there was a cut going across her forehead that still had blood pouring and a small cut under her nose. Her eyes were sightly red, most likely from crying recently (who wouldn't?). All in all she looked like she just went through hell.
I pushed her away slightly "Ruby what happened?" I asked quietly. She didn't reply she just hugged be and whispered "It was Chad, he used be..... He wanted Misery" (what a twist!) ok now im definitely going to kill him. I've never seen Ruby like this she's seems so broken. "Ruby ill help you" I smiled slightly" but I'll kill Chad later" I added. I led her into the kitchen and grabbed the first aid kit. I sat her down on a chair and began to help her.
I grabbed a cloth and covered it in water. "This might sting a little" I warned her, she winced slightly as the cloth came in contact with the open cut on her forehead. After I cleaned the wound I wrapped it tightly with a bandage. "Ruby I think you should get some sleep" I told her. She looked at me and nodded sleepily "ok.... but only if your with me" she said with a slight blush. "Wh-what?" I stuttered as she looked to the floor, still blushing she hugged me "Im just scared of what he'll do.... he said he likes girls that are sad.... I guess that's why he did this" she managed to say as she began to cry. I pulled her tighter to me" it's ok Ruby you can stay with me" I said as I softly stroked her hair softly" thank you" she whispered as we began to walk to her room.
"Carry me" she wined after we got to the stairs. I sighed slightly as I picked her up and carried her to her room. As I entered the last hall that led to her room I met the 'least' likely person." Chad" I sneered as I saw him leaning against the wall. (*cough* smug bastard *cough*)" Just wait here" I said to Ruby as I set her down." Oh looks its skinless and...." Chad began to say as I grabbed his collar and pulled him down to my height." Here is a word of warning" I said calmly as I punched him in the gut. He winced from pain and fell to his knees. I grabbed a fist full of his hair and raised his head up." If I ever see you again I will personally make sure you die.... painfully "I threatened darkly before dropping him. I walked over to a shocked ruby, picked her up and continued to her room. (Yes I know some of you have been waiting for that)
"Ahhh Skullboy you do realise that Chad won't come within a mile of you now, right?" she asked as we entered her room. "Well he did deserve it" (so true) I said as I put her down on her feet. As soon as her feet made contact with the floor she leaned on me,' wow she must be tired' I thought. I pulled the sheets back on her bed and carefully put her in bed." Do you want me to st-"he didn't finish because she pulled him into bed and wrapped her arms around him' im guessing that's a yes' I thought. I turned the light of and the room was flooded with darkness, I put my arms around her protectively. "Skullboy" she whispered. "Yes?" I said as I felt her move and put her head on my nonexistent heart "thank you.... for everything" she said quietly before her breathing slowed. I looked at her and saw that she as asleep. I kissed the top of her forehead before I fell I fell asleep.
