Chapter Four
-Skylar's P.O.V-
I sat there, my head dropping every second as my vision started fading in and out. Everything hurt so badly, my body felt as if it was on fire. "Skylar, what happened?" I heard Sora ask, even though I had to strain to hear him. I opened my mouth to answer him, but instead a painful moan came out instead.
"It hurts" I groaned, as I closed my eyes and started to breath heavily from the pain. I watched as Sora continues to clean up the wounds, eyes filled with worry as he winced just looking at it. I couldn't see what it looked like and I'm slightly glad for that. Once Sora was done bandaging the wound he looked at me with questioning eyes. "Do we need to go to the hospital?" I asked after a moment of silence.
"I don't know, the wound wasn't really deep, but it was bleeding a lot" Sora said, tears welling up in his eyes. "I don't want to lose you" he sobbed as he quickly wrapped his arms around me and started crying into my chest.
"Shh" I said, as I wrapped my arms around him and just held him close. "It's alright, I'm fine" I said, over and over as I ran my hands through his brown hair. "Come on, let's get some sleep, school tomorrow" I said, as I stood up and grabbed Sora's hand. As we went to our rooms, I laid in my bed, the house was dark and quiet, I kept my door closed as I just listen to the sound of my own breathing. I thought about what happened back in the alleyway, turning onto my sides, I shivered as I dread going to school tomorrow.
I blinked my eyes open as I heard the sound of my alarm clock going off. Sitting up, I noticed that I didn't hear my father screaming for me to turn it off, meaning he never came home last night. My lips twitched upwards at the idea of him never coming back. Getting up, I head to the bathroom to take a shower before getting dressed. Entering the bathroom, with the clothing I was going to wear today I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror. I winced at the sight before me, my hair was spewed everywhere, my skin looked paler then normal and I just looked like a mess. The bandages wrapped around my neck has dried blood stains, setting my clothes down I started to gently remove the bandages, scared to see what was underneath. My breath got caught in my throat as I saw the two small holes in my neck, along with a huge bruise that surrounded it. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I brought a hand up and let my fingers ghost over the bruise. "Skylar, are you in there?" I heard Sora asked as he knocked on the door.
"Um, yeah, I'm taking a shower" I said.
"Oh, alright, well don't take too long, I have to take one too" Sora said.
"Alright" I said, casting one more glance in the mirror, I shook my head before turning on the shower and stripping down. Getting under the warm water, I shivered as the warm droplets hit my body and the bruises. I looked to my stomach, out of all the bruises I had, this one was darker and still hurt. It throbbed at every movement I made; I knew it was going to take longer to heal then any of the others. After I was finished with my shower and dressed, I stepped out of the bathroom and watched as Sora entered. Walking to the kitchen I saw it was only 5am, we always got up at 4:50am. I walked over to the bowl of fruit and picked up an apple, as I was getting ready to take a bite out of it, I stopped as I noticed how soft and mushy it felt. Opening one of the drawers, I got out a knife and cut a piece off of the apple, my face twisting up in disgust as I saw how rotten it was inside. Throwing it away and putting the knife in the sink I looked at the other fruit, in reality they all looked rotten…how long have we had them?
"Hey…you sure you want to go to school?" I heard Sora ask. Turning to look at him, I saw the worry look in his blue eyes as he looked at me.
"Sora, I'll be fine" I said, giving him a huge smile.
"If you say so" Sora mumbled as I walked over to him and wrapped my arms around him.
"I promise you, just a couple of more years and we'll be out of this hellhole" I whispered as I feel him hug me back. After we pulled apart we gathered our stuff and walked to school. I held Sora's hand, squeezing it, to try and comfort him. As we reached the school everyone stared at us, well they stared at me since I had bandages over my neck. Entering the building, we just kept our heads down as we walked to first period, stopping as our path was blocked.
"There she is my favorite freak" Axel said, causing me to flinch as my neck throbbed. "Where'd you go last night? You left before the fun could even start" he said, as he and his friends burst out laughing. I just kept my head down and swallowed the lump in my throat.
"P-please just leave us alone" I said, not really wanting to put up with any of this, as I gave him a plain, emotionless look.
"What's this, back to that boring monotone voice and emotionless face" Axel said the smirk on his face dropping as it was replace with an angry scowl. "Last night you were crying and screaming, what happen?" He asked, an insane look shinning in his eyes as I felt myself twitch a little, I felt like I was ready to explode, like a ticking time bomb. Everything was came rushing at me as my eye started to twitch. "What's wrong did I-" the red head started to say.
"SHUT UP AND LEAVE US ALONE!" I screamed as I felt my eyes widen. "I HATE YOU AND EVERYONE IN THIS FUCKING SCHOOL, WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL THAT MY BROTHER AND I WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE! YOU THINK WHAT YOUR DOING IS FUNNY, BUT ITS NOT, OKAY!" I screamed as everyone's eyes widen. "WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH ENOUGH SHIT AT HOME AND YOU THINK WE LIKE TO COME HERE ONLY TO BE MADE FUN OF AND BE BEATEN, NO! WE JUST WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE!" I said falling to the floor and crying as Sora bend down beside; his eyes wide with surprise as he grew worried and I started to take in deep breaths. "MAKE IT STOP! PLEASE GOD! MAKE IT STOP!" I cried as sobs ranked through my body and everything started to hurt as all the memories and all the emotions I've been trying to push down started to come to the surface. I was taking in deep breathes as I felt more sobs rank through my body as the sounds of hurried footsteps reached my ears, as a teacher and the nurse started to run towards Sora and I.
"What happened?" A teacher asked. "Answer me, what happened right now?!" The teacher demanded when all the students in the hallway stood quiet as the nurse bended down beside Sora and I. I looked at her and continued to sob, not wanting to stop as everything started to go numb, except for the throbbing pain in my neck. As the teachers eyes scanned the hall they soon landed on Axel who stood there, mouth agape as his eyes were wide and filled with…worry? I looked at him and continued to cry as he looked like he wanted to walk over and comfort me.
"Shh, calm down, it's alright" Aerith said, as she pulled me into a motherly embrace and ran her fingers through my hair as I took in deep breathes and tried to calm myself. I felt weak, I didn't like it, I needed to be the stronger twin and protect Sora, but how can I when here I am crying my eyes out for everyone to see.
"I'll ask again, what happened?" The teacher asked as he looked directly at Axel. Before anyone could do or say anything, the red head stepped forward and took in a deep breath.
"It was my fault sir" Axel said, as I wiped at my eyes, small whimpers escaping past my lips as I looked at him. "I'm sorry" he said, causing my eyes to widen as this was the first time those words had ever left the red heads lips.
"Mr. Sinclair we're going to the principal's office, now" the teacher said, as he grabbed the teen's arm and started to drag him to the principal's off, I swallowed thickly as the red head kept his eyes trained on me while he was being dragged away. I watched as he mouthed something, something that made my blood run cold as a smirk made its way onto his lips.
"Skylar, Skylar what's wrong?" Sora asked, as my face drained of any color as what he mouthed played over and over in my head.
"Sora, would you mind helping me take her to the nurses office" Aerith said, as the brunette nodded, worry shinning in his eyes. As they helped me up, I just let them drag me to the nurses office as my body was tensed and tears were still streaming down my face.
"Skylar, please tell me what's wrong" Sora begged as we sat in the nurses office while Aerith tried to call someone to pick us up.
"H-he said, he would get me back" I said, as Sora's eyes widen.
