A/N: Here we are, second chapter. Yay. I'm thrilled, really.... *ahem*
Why I hate Cupid --- Chapter Two
I snap out of my reminscence as I feel my body shaking like it would in an earthquake. My eyes go wide as fear rises up within me and I feel my face burn. I feel trapped. No escape no escape no escape no escape... I feel my face being slapped lightly and a final hard shake as I loose consciousness.
~*~*~*~*~ FLASHBACK ~*~*~*~*~
"This is my only good shirt," I complained, frowning slightly as I examined the little tears and mud streaking up my entire backside in the mirror in Evan's room. My reflection scowled at Evan's bemused facial expression.
"We'll go shopping," he smiled, "Get you a new shirt."
"Yeah?"
"Uh huh."
There was a short silence as I pulled off my shirt and on Evan's burgandy one. It was too big and hung limp around my upper half.
"How did I do?" I asked, sliding into a pair of shiney black shorts that went down past my knees and rested halfway down my shins.
"You did good," Evan replied. He pulled me into his arms and kissed me on the forehead, "Even I wasn't that good on my first time on a skateboard."
"Really?"
"Yeah," Evan nodded. He glanced at his watch and frowned, "It's almost five."
"Aw!" I pouted, "I promised Lance I'd be home for supper!"
"What time is supper?" Evan asked.
"Five."
"You'd better run then."
"Yeah," I replied, slightly dejected. I gave Evan a quick kiss and ran home.
~*~*~*~*~ END FLASHBACK ~*~*~*~*~
I awake in a bed in a farmiliar room. A very farmiliar room. Evan's room.
"Hey you're awake, yo." Todd was probably sent to check up on me. Yay.
"Yeah," I nodd, "What happened?"
"I dunno, yo," Todd replies, "You just fell unconscious. I shook ya slightly and you just conked out, yo."
I sigh, "So where is everybody?"
"Freddy's in the kitchen making supper, figured you'd be hungry when you woke up. You gonna come down?"
"Where's Evan?" I ask, "I want to see him."
"He's at the hospital."
"Why? What happened? Is he okay??"
"He was shot."
"Shot?!"
"Yeah yo, don't you remember?"
"Remember? Todd, really, where is he? I wanna see Evan, bring him up!"
"He got shot, yo, you were there."
"No," I deny, "I don't believe you!"
"It's true yo!"
"No!" I scream.
Todd backs off and leaves the room. I'm alone again. I don't want to be alone! I wanna be with Evan! I can't believe Todd would lie to me like that... I mean, just a few days ago... just a few... Evan took me shopping....
~*~*~*~*~ FLASHBACK ~*~*~*~*~
"Hey Lance! I'm going out!" I called.
"Where?"
"Shopping."
"Didn't I forbid you to hangout with that X-geek?"
"Why? It's not like we're enemies or anything!"
"....Just cause!"
"Don't be mean Lance! I wanna go!"
"No!"
"Why not damnit!?"
"Because... I said so!"
"Not good enough!" I yelled and ran out to the X-Mansion. On my way there, a fleeting thought entered my head wondering what Lance would say when he found out that me and said 'X-Geek' were a *little* more than friends....
~*~*~*~*~*~
"So, how do I look?" I asked, twirling in front of Evan to show off my new shirt. It was tan with black sleeves.
Evan gave me a devious grin, "You'd look better with nothing, but that's just my opinion. Why tan?"
"I wanted to match you."
"...You already match me."
~*~*~*~*~ END FLASHBACK ~*~*~*~*~
The beginnings of tears start to enter my eyes as I jerk back into reality.
"Evan is not shot..." I say, "He won't die... he won't.... Evan is okay... Todd's just lying to me. Yeah, yeah that's it. Everything is gonna be fine..."
A/N: Not too bad I think..... Didn't take hiddeously long either, yay! Whaddya think? Any closer to figurin out what's goin on?
