Words beneath the Silence
Chapter 4
So far so good. Dinner wasn't a disaster yet, but I shouldn't jinks it. I was doing what the other Avox' motioned for me to do just grab a plate and serve it to the right person. The smell of the gourmet food was phenomenal. The delicious scents of the pasta with orange sauce and the steamy goodness of the different soups made my mouth water and at the same time constantly reminding me of how I didn't eat anything today. My stomach growled loudly I tried to silence it but it wouldn't co-operate. In the kitchen the blue eyed male Avox winked at me and handed me half of a roll. I smiled and ate it. It was satisfying and yet extraordinary. The cooking Avox' kept handing us plate after plate of different foods.
When I put food on the table Serah looked miserable, almost as if plucking out her eye balls out with a fork would be enjoyable. Plutarch tried a few times to make conversation with her but he wasn't successful. She looked mostly agitated at her grandmother and grandfather. They were having a very unkind conversation about other districts and other members of their family. It's sickening to see how poorly someone can think of their own blood. Serah gripped tightly to her knife as she took in every word, and a couple times I saw Plutarch rubbing her arm in comfort.
The blue eyed Avox' brought a platter of champagne glass with a steaming clear liquid. Serah looked like she was examining the glasses not knowing what it was, she took a glass and chugged the clear liquid down. "NO!" Plutarch yelled but it was too late. She realized what she just drank; she stood up and ran at the speed of light to the washroom. The old farts laughed as she did quietly mumbling "idiot" or "Stupid child". I scowled at them stopping myself from running after her. "Darius". Ms Heavensbee called "go after her and make sure she is alright". I nodded and sprinted after her.
I tried to find the bathroom with struggle. I saw her sprawled out over the toilet still vomiting. Their was vomit every where, on the counter, on the floor and on the walls. I didn't worry about cleaning the vomit in the high class bathroom right now; I just knelt at her side and patted her back I comfortingly breathed beside her so she knew someone was there. She whimpered with each blow that came out of her stomach.
She suddenly stopped her dry heaving, and turned towards me her mouth had trailed of blood on it same with inside the toilet. Looks like that drink worked a little too well. I quickly got a cloth and wet it under the tap. I went back over to Serah who was leaning her semi-conscious head on the cold tile wall. I turned her back towards me and whipped off the bloody bile from her mouth, and cleaned her up. She looked at me and I saw her eyes roll back and she fell unconscious in my arms. Her arms hung over my shoulders and her head neatly tucked in the crock of my neck. I felt her steady breath on my chest over my heavy Avox' uniform. I could still smell raspberry shampoo in her hair and I couldn't help but rubbed her back. My heart fluttered in her presence I tried to make the satisfying feeling stop but I couldn't, I felt so good being with her I didn't want it to end. I carried her steadily in my arms toward her room. I undressed her to her underclothes still feeling redness rise in my cheeks. I looked in her draws to find a pair of pajamas, but the closest thing I found was a pair of track pant and a large t-shirt. I changed her unconscious body into her night cloths and tucked her into her white sheets. I went to the kitchen and got a large glass of water and ran back and put it next to her bed. I knew when she woke up she would be thirsty and dehydrated. I also left some aspirin on her beside table as well, just because I was worried about her in her condition. I knew I couldn't stay with her at night that's against the rules, but if I could I would.
I walked downstairs still constantly worrying about her but Plutarch intercepted my path. "How is she? Is she okay?" I nodded and I made a motion with my hands that said she was asleep. I wouldn't dare tell him she passed out. He smiled and thanked me. Then I pointed to the bucket of cleaning supplies it took him a while for him to get what I was motioning. That's when Ms Heavensbee walked by. Plutarch knew he wasn't allowed to talk to me. He indiscreetly said "Darius I command you to clean up the defiled bathroom". I almost wanted to hand-smack my head to show him how bad of an actor her was I nodded and went to clean up the bathroom.
The blue eyed Avox strutted in front of me, leading me to the Avox room. I followed awkwardly because after I finished cleaning the bathroom and returned the now smelly cleaning supplies back to the kitchen. The blue eyed Avox cornered me into a wall and tried to make a move on me. I wanted to scream for him to get off and how I didn't play for that team but then he notice, footsteps coming closer to us and he lightly kissed me and winked at me. He returned himself to cleaning dishes. That when Ms. 'fathead' Heavansbee asked him to show me where all the Avox' sleep and he happily nodded. 'Oh fabulous this is exactly what I need. To share a room with a guy who just tried to make a move on me." I thought. Now I'm here in front of a small white door way. He got a key from his pocket and unlocked it then, we stepped inside.
The whole room was white. There were nine small springy looking beds with white sheets. Three young Avox' were already there, throwing paper airplanes at the walls on the opposite side of the room. Each bed had a name on it; I found the white dusty bed the said 'Darius' on the wooden head bored. I looked at it satisfied it was much better then the concert floor of the training center. I shook of the dust off the small bed and sat on it comfortably. There was a key similar to the blue eyed Avox', on my bedside table. I assumed it was for the outside of the Avox room. After I was settled I examined the small room, there was a small door on the other side of the room I assumed was a wash room and at the very end of the room there was a long table with the leftovers from dinner on it with three jugs of water. That reminded me of the training center of how all the Avox I befriended before today were stuck shivering on a cold concert floor with small leftovers to eat just enough to keep them alive. I was here in the Avox room able to take what ever I wanted I felt guilty about it. I wish they lives would get better too. They would smile once again in there miserable lives. There was a loud crack of springs that distracted me. The blue eyed Avox already undressed to his underclothes was relaxingly sitting in the white bed, right beside mine! I notice the name plate on his head bored 'Demy' it said. Demy was sprawled out on his bed in nothing but his boxer shorts reading a small worn out looking book. I think that I should learn to sleep with my eyes open, I'm a very heavy sleeper and I don't want to wake up to something unpleasant. The rest of the Avox started making there way into the room. All of them male, probley to make sure none of the fell in love, but then again they didn't know about Demy.
A lean Avox with a lot of scars tried to get out of the room but the door was locked from the outside. That's why they gave us keys. They would probley let us out at a certain time in the morning. The Avox with scars threw a roll to Demy and he caught it without even looking up from his book. These guys seemed to know each other for a long time. They all knew what there hand signals meant and it almost seemed like they were silently talking. And then there was me, new not sure of what to do and even if I belonged here. It felt good to be out of the training center even that Serah talked to me like I was normal. But these guys seemed intimidating to me.
A large Avox with brown hair that deified gravity looked at me with his arms crossed and raised his eyebrows at me. Almost as if saying 'who are you, and what are you doing here'. Demy looked up and gave the brunette and indescribable hand signal, the brown haired man shrugged and walked off. Every guy was undress so I decided to as well keeping my undershirt on over my boxers. All the other guys were very muscular, perfectly shaped abs and muscle tones. I wasn't scrawny I was muscular but not as muscular so I hid myself. I shook my red hair with my hands and lay my head on the pillow as the lights went out. As I drifted off to sleep no one else accrued to me it felt like I was by myself. I dreamt of my sister Mygin fighting in the hunger games and her dying moment in the sea of blood. But the dream got interrupted by an image of me and Serah running in the meadow of district twelve.
Okay chapter 4 complete. Sorry if you don't like light gay content. But no worries it will remain very light. Tell what you think. Should I write more about the other Avox as well?
