Why should I even bother trying to escape when I knew I was going to die anyway? There was no way that I had enough strength right now to even try. I couldn't even throw something at the window to make it break so I could crawl out, because there was nothing on the ground. Out of all the times I've been wanting to kill myself the past few years, who knew I was finally going to die today?
I choked from the smoke that was around me. There was a sudden sharp pain in my ribs, which I knew will stop as soon as the fire will come into the kitchen. Hurry up, already! I thought, watching it inch closer and closer, minute by minute; second by second. There was not enough words to describe how scared I actually was right now.
I closed my eyes and pictured Paige, because, she was the only person who actually made me feel wanted. I had an image of her in my mind. Her soft blonde hair that always smelled like shampoo (and not cigarettes, like mine usually does sometimes from Chad and my mom smoking, ugh). Her eyes were so beautiful, I wished I had them myself instead of these ugly brown ones.
I had a question that I knew that was never going to be answered because I was going to die: Why did Paige want to hang out with me? What part of myself made her want to be friends? I could feel tears starting to build up in my eyes when I had a sudden thought that she might be using me for something. That wouldn't be the first time anyone has used me... but, for some reason, I trusted her.
Honestly, Paige was my bestfriend.
That was my last thought that popped into my head before the fire entered the kitchen doorway. This is it, I shivered. What did I do to deserve this? I tried to think back to when I was younger to see if I had did anything in the past to make all of this happen to me. Why, why, why?
I opened my mouth wide to try to scream for help. The only sound I heard was me having a choking fit from the smoke that was taking the air away from around me. Out of nowhere, something broke the kitchen window above me. The glass shattered all over me, giving me cuts all over my body.
I looked above me at the window to see Paige climbing inside.
PAIGE?!
"Shit!" Paige said, looking down at me.
If only I could sit up I would wrap my arms around her shoulders and give her the biggest hug I could give. I just realized that she was in danger now, to. "Paige, get out of here! We're not going to make it-"
Paige ignored me as she brushed the glass off of my face. "Do as I say, okay?"
I had no choice, so I nodded.
"Can you stand?" Paige asked quickly, glancing up at the fire to make sure we still had time.
I tried to sit up, but my whole body twitched and resisted.
I shook my head, hopelessly. "Paige, please get out!"
"I'm not leaving with you," She argued. "Now, do as I say. Don't think about the pain that's hurting you. Think about, uh... just look at me, nothing else, okay?"
I didn't know what she was going to do until she carried me. I wondered how she could lift me, considering that I was a fat fuck. "How can you-"
"Don't talk," Paige looked down at me. "Remember? Just look at me, okay?"

When I woke up, it felt as if a truck has driven over me. My whole body was sore and I had no idea where I was. I knew that I had to be laying on a bed, because, there was something soft under me. When I turned my head slowly to the right I could smell freshly picked flowers. It was then when I felt something wet in my mouth. Then, it felt as if my bottom lip was being softly bitten. I couldn't help but moan.
"Do you like that?" A voice asked, gently.
I nodded.
"Then you'll love this."
A few seconds later, I felt a wet trail trace underneath my jaw line. I couldn't stop my back from arching.
"I told you," The voice chuckled. "Open your eyes."
I slowly opened my eyes. It took a minute for them to adjust. There she was, standing right above me. "Paige!"
"How are you feeling?" Paige asked.
"Sore." I muttered. "What happened?"
Paige bit her bottom lip. "What do you remember?"
"Last thing I remembered was the last time when you told me just to look at you, nothing else." I said. "What happened after that?"
Paige kissed my forhead. "You fell asleep, so I had to go down the front porch very slowly so that I wouldn't hurt your broken ribs... The ambulance was already here, so they brought you to the hospital right away. I had to tell them that I was your sister or else they wouldn't let me in the back of the ambulance with you."
"You came with me?" I asked.
"Why do you sound shocked?" Paige brushed the hair out of my eyes with the back of her hand.
I shrugged. When I looked in her eyes I noticed that she looked exhausted. "Have you gotten any sleep?"
"No." She said. "I'm not tired, I'm fine. I've stayed in this room with you for two days, waiting for you to wake up."
"What?" I couldn't believe her. "You haven't slept or eaten anything in two days?"
Paige shook her head. "I was scared you wouldn't wake up, even though the doctor's told me that you were going to wake up today. I just wanted to make sure for myself. They were right, I guess."
"I'm fine," I said. "Well, besides the burning pain in my ribs. Would you please get some sleep and then eat something when you wake up? Or atleast eat something first before you go to sleep?"
"I'll eat first so that I can stay up and be with you for a little while." Paige smiled at me. "I'll be back in a second, I'm just going to grab an apple from the lunchroom. Would you like anything?"
I shook my head.
She gave me one more smile before she walked out the door, but I could tell it was fake. Paige must have been crying all night because her eyes were all red. Honestly, I didn't know how to thank her for saving me. I just couldn't help but wonder where Chad was right now. He could be watching me anywhere right now. His eyes turning red at the sight of Paige near me, saving me... kissing me.
"Back." Paige had a red apple in her hand as she sat down on a chair on the side of my bed.
"You can go home if you want," I looked at her eyes. "You look exhausted. Get some sleep so that you don't have to sleep on these nasty chairs."
"No," Paige refused. "I'm fine here. I'm not getting out until you do."
I rolled my eyes. "I have a question. How did you know that my house was on fire? The smoke alarm didn't even go off."
"Well, as my mom was driving me down your street I saw firetrucks in your house. So, I asked my mom if she could drop me off here so that she wouldn't see your house. Who know's what she would do?"
"Did you have to convice her?" I asked.
"I told her to get me more cigarettes." Paige took a bite of her apple. "It wasn't that hard."
I had another question. "Are we... uhm, going out?"
Paige blushed.
"That's a stupid question," I thought quickly. "Forget I said that."
"Did you regret the kiss?" Paige looked hurt.
I shook my head. "No!"
She sighed. "I shouldn't have done it, it was a mistake. I know you hated it."
"What?" My mouth dropped open. "No, I didn't hate it. Actually, I loved it... I wish that you could do it again."
Paige smiled. "Really?"
She bent down more so that our forhead's were a couple of inches away from each other. I could feel her breath on my lips. I licked both of her lips and smiled when she opened her mouth. Paige bit my bottom lip so lightly I could barely feel it. I tried to push myself up more so that the kiss would deepen, but my ribs stopped me.
"Ugh," I said when she pulled away. "I wish I wasn't in this bed anymore and we were on a couch our something so that I can hold you."
"Well," She took another bite of her apple. "The doctor's said that you can get out of here tonight. So, why don't I finish eating like you wanted me to, get some sleep like you also wanted me to and when you get to my house we can watch, Scary Movie 4."
I nodded. "Okay."
"I can shut off all the lights," Paige leaned closer to me. "Put a blanket under us. When a scary part comes and if you get scared, I can gently bite your bottom lip just the way you like, then trail my tongue underneath your jaw line-"
"Oh, God." I tried not to make my back arch. "Paige, stop trying to turn me on while I'm laying down on the hospital bed."
"Is it working?" Paige asked.
I nodded.
She smiled, again. "Then, I can softly bite your neck while I take your shirt off-"
"Time for your medicine!" A doctor who walked in said.
Paige quickly sat up in her seat and acted as if nothing happened.
"Paige, dear, your still here?" The doctor asked. "Why don't you get some lunch to eat and get a few hours of sleep."
I watched as Paige put her hand over mine before she left the room.
--
Paige's parents were asleep upstairs, so we were watching the movie downstairs. The room was completely soundproof- which, was a good thing incase we did anything during the movie. Maybe we wouldn't be watching the movie at all, I thought. Paige was waiting for the popcorn to stop popping.
I heard the microwave beep. I sat up a little bit more so that I could watch her put the popcorn in a bigger bowl. She walked torwards the refridgerator and pulled out two bottles of soda. I smiled at her when she walked over with the bottles and the bowl of popcorn. I took the bowl from her so that she could sit on the side of me.
When I reached for the remote to turn the DVD on, there was another sharp pain in my ribs. "I'm getting sick of this..."
Instead, Paige went to grab the remote and turn it on. She put it back down on the glass table. "Come over here," Paige said gently.
I shifted my body so that I was able to lay my head on her chest. Paige was laying her head on the arm of the couch. She pulled a red blanket over us and wrapped her arms around my waist. I shivered when she put her hands underneath my shirt and moved them up my back to where my bra strap was. I let her unhook it.
"What's wrong with your back?" Paige rubbed her hand over my back. "It feels... weird."
"Its just bruises from when Chad kicked me a few days ago," I didn't want to lie to her. "Don't worry about it."
Paige sighed. "How am I not suppose to worry, when you're my girlfriend, hon?"
"I don't know," I closed my eyes.
Paige took my hand that was resting on her shoulder. She put my left pointer finger in her mouth and rolled her tongue over it.
Suddenly, the door opened and the lights turned on.
