Chapter: 11 healing wounds and broken hearts
Nathaniel drove Rachael and I to my house considering it was the closest out of all three. I opened the door and took Nathaniel's hand leading him to the bathroom "make yourself comfortable Rachi" I yelled over my shoulder
"Okay" she laughed in response
"Sit" I pointed to my bed
"You don't have to-I think we should have a look at you fi-" he started
"Please sit" I interrupted him a little demanding he obeyed without another word. Tippy-toeing I pushed my nose up and looked in the mirror. "it's fine I get nose bleeds all the time" I smiled reassuring him "he just accidently hit something and triggered another one" I stood in the door way between my room and the bathroom grinning like an idiot "see it doesn't even hurt" I poked it. The bleeding stopped sometime during the drive over here but for reasons that didn't surprise me Nathaniel's was still running not as much as at first but still a lot. He had paper covering his nose, his eyes still holding worry.
I grabbed my first aid kit after quickly rinsing my face and nose out "stop looking at me like that. I'm the one that should be worrying you were the one that was in a fight not me" I lectured as I stood before him. I opened the case and took the not-so-white-anymore paper he held to his nose from him tossing it into the nearest trash bin. I tilted his chin up and his eyes met mine. I looked away blushing Gosh! I'm supposed to be mad at him! I pinched the cartilage of his nose hard and he winced "serves you right" I pouted. "Hold here for me" I asked and he pinched his nose where I did. I cleaned the blood from his face with a baby wipe as gently as I could his eyes watching my every move. Once I was done I looked at his ruined dress shirt and sat on my knees. Blood stains covered the white cloth. "This won't do" I spoke as I started to un-button his shirt.
"I'll kill him" the boy stated calmly as if he was speaking about the weather. My eyes widened as he gently touched my face with one hand.
"Stop it!" I yelled slapping his hand away and getting up "no you won't! Stop talking like that!" I moved back to him and finished the last of the buttons to reveal a toned body covered in a handful of small bruises "geez he got you here too?" I whispered running my hand down his chest lightly. I saw him get Goosebumps and pulled back mumbling "sorry"
Once I was sure Nathaniel's bleeding stopped I put a bandage on the bridge of his nose over a small cut I cleaned out with hydrogen peroxide "I don't want you guys to fight anymore" I spoke as I started to dab his broken lip with the wet paper "it scares me to know the two guys I love the most want to kill each other" I smiled weakly "and I can't do anything about it".
The blonde grabbed my wrist and pulled me down to him he buried my head in his shoulder and held it there with one hand at the top of my head "I'm sorry" he chuckled "I didn't mean to get you into this mess. I-I really didn't" he smoothed out my hair over and over again attempting to relax me. To my shock it worked "it's okay to cry"
I stopped puzzled at what he was saying "You've tried to be so calm and quiet during the after math of these events but I could see your hands shaking from a mile away. You've put up a tough cover but it's not good to keep all those emotions bottled up inside. So I'm telling you its okay to cry"
'How? How could he read me so easily?' I sniffled a few times before silently crying into the collar of his messed up dress shirt. After I cried for a few good minutes a found his body very warm and comforting so I let sleep take me hostage and snuggled closer to him wrapping my arms around his neck.
Nathaniel's P.O.V:
She snuggled closer and wrapped her arms around me her breathing calm. She was asleep. I picked her up bridal style and laid her on her bed she instantly moved around to get comfortable I smile before hesitantly planting a soft kiss on her lips. She didn't stir so I smiled again before walking away. I stopped in my tracks when I felt something holding me back. I turned around to see her hand clasped around the corner of my shirt. I looked up to see the purple head beauty still sound asleep. She was doing this unconsciously, how cute. I walked back to her side and sat on the floor by her bed. Holding her hand in mine.
Castiel's P.O.V:
Fuck school, fuck life, fuck him, fuck h- no not her it was me. I'm the one who messed up not her. Shit! I'm so fucking pissed right now! I breathed out before bumping into someone harshly
"Hey watch where the hell you're going!" the man yelled out
"Sorry" I mumbled as I kept walking
"punk-ass better be" he laughed with two of his other friends and I snapped the last ounce of sense I had left disappeared, the last button I had was just pushed by these three low-life's. I turned around and swung at the hoodlum with full force hearing something snap he fell face first into the pavement. The other two charged at me and I was ready for a second brawl for the day; hell I'd even do a third if I could nothing mattered anymore know that I heard those three words leave her mouth.
Rachael's P.O.V:
Oh hell! Why did I see?! What did I see?! Did she even feel that!? I was literally having a little heart-attack on the floor right outside Cloud's bedroom door I only peeked it open to ask if I could have a piece of the strawberry flavored cake in the kitchen when I saw Nathan lay a gentle kiss on her pink lips. I picked myself up and looked threw myself onto her couch while silently fingerling in shock and confusement. I was shaking violently as a giant rave party was going inside me a little squeal leaving my lips. I slapped my hands over my mouth at the sudden noise and looked up at her 'Captain' who was staring at me like I was crazy, which I was but wasn't the point right now. I peeked through the little crack in the door that I left to see Nathaniel still admiring the sleeping teen. I sighed a sigh of relief as I walked back to her kitchen and cut myself a slice of the cake that was still teasing me "oh well it can't be helped" I grabbed the remote and turned on her TV flipping through random channels while I texted Bree what I just witnessed. Should I tell Cloud when she woke up? Could I? I've seen the way she looks at Castiel. I've seen the way she looks at both of them; I know she loves them both. So if telling her this… what would her reaction be? What would Castile's reaction be? I didn't even want to know. "Uhhhhhhhhhhhh~ it was the cakes fault" I admitted to no one in particular.
