A small update, my own laptop crashed so now i've gotta sneak up on my dad's computer to try and type a chapter. I've managed to get some small chapters, which I figured were worthy updating... hope you enjoy!
So apparently, as Ryan found out the hard way, books and crutches don't mix very well together. He was struggling to hold onto both his books for the next period and hop around his crutches. After dropping his books for the third time that day, Ryan gave up. He hopped as quickly as he could towards his locker, threw his crutches inside and limped the rest of his way towards his class room. By the end of the day he was exhausted and his leg was really hurting. He quickly retrieved his crutches and made his way over towards the parkinglot where his brother was already waiting for their mother to come pick them up.
"I saw you walking around without your crutches, Ry." Seth said with a side glance towards Ryan.
"I couldn't carry my books with them.. don't tell mom, alright?" Ryan asked.
"I won't but if I must I will. You're sweating Ry… you're obviously in pain." Seth said concerned.
"I'm fine, it's just really hot." Ryan said stubbornly as he awkwardly sat down, his right leg stretched in front of him. His leg was on fire… not only because he'd been walking on it, but ever since the doctor forced the brace on him and straightened out his leg, even though he couldn't and quickly locked the brace it had been burning. From his hip, all the way down to somewhat passed his kneecap.
"You should've used the crutches." Seth muttered.
"Shut it, Seth." Ryan hissed as the familiar range rover drove towards them.
"Hey boys." Kirsten said as she opened the passenger door for Ryan as he climbed in.
"How was your day?" she asked.
"ok." Seth replied.
"Fine" Ryan muttered.
"You get around ok, Ryan?" Kirsten asked.
Ryan glanced at her, then at Seth before replying. "It was ok." He said before he turned his head to look outside.
Again, it's small but better something than nothing I hope :) Lemme know what you think!
