WHY I HATE CUPID -- chapter five
I stand slowly, using the doorknob to support myself and, as a child beginning to walk, I stumble over to Evan's side.
"Oh my God Evan..." I cry as I collapse again, this time at his bedside with my hands holding his left. "Wake up Evan. C'mon, say something... Say something!" I no longer control the volume of my voice as it comes out with choked sobs, "Evan... Evan quit teasing me... Wake up... C'mon wake up Evan... Please wake up! I-I love you..."
Once again I feel a hand touch my shoulder and arms wrap around my neck. But it's not from Evan. Why isn't it from Evan?!
"Shh Pietro," a faint voice says, "It's okay..."
"No," I say, frantically shaking my head, "It's not okay... If it were okay Evan would wake up and this would be Evan hugging me and cryin' with me not you!"
"I'm sorry," Todd replies, crystaline tears streaming his face as his lip quivers, "Evan isn't going to wake up right now..."
"When then Todd?" I ask, "When will Evan open his eyes?"
"I don't know Speedy," Todd gulped, "Maybe never."
My hopes fell through then and my eyes went wide as my already teared out eyes began to fill with tears again.
Evan die? Nonono... this can't be happening! Evan CAN'T die.... No.....
"C'mon Pet, let's...." Todd began.
"Don't call me that!" I scream, pulling my arm out of his grasp, "Only Evan can call me that!"
"Alright alright sorry..." Todd mumbles, "C'mon Pietro. Let's go back home."
"We don't have a home!" I cry, suddenly relizing the facts since the shooting, "Without Lance supporting us with his job we can't pay the mortgage or bills or anything..."
"Chill Speed, chill," Todd mutters, "We're gonna stay at the X-Mansion until we can get back on our feet..."
"The X-Mansion?"
"Yeah, yo, you can stay in Evan's room."
"......I don't want to leave him..." My breath, as I'm just noticing now, is coming out in short ragged gasps. My breathing is getting short as my breaths become more rapid, more choked. Then everything goes black.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I am standing in a large room. I don't know how I know it's a room. I just do. There is a thick fog hanging in he air and I can't feel anything except pure emotion. I find myself moving forward and have a feeling that I was heading to something special. Then I saw what it was. Standing in the middle of a glowing light I see a figure. About my height, a little better build than me and dark copper skin.
"EVAN!" I try to scream. I hear myself ringing in my ears but my mouth doesn't make a noise. I start to run toward him. Faster and faster and when I finally get close enough, I reach out to touch him and I fall. As I fall down through the whiteness, I can't help but dwell on the fact that I had been soo close. Soo close to having Evan back. He was in my reach and I reached for him. But I failed. I'm a failure.
I land hard on a black tablet that just jumped out of nowhere. I get up to my feet and find myself standing in a graveyard. My body takes me forward, past images of Evan and myself. To the right of me, I teach Evan how to climb a tree. To the left Lance is cussing me out for hanging out with Evan. To the right, Evan and I lick ice-cream off of a cone and each others hands. To the left, Lance is alsleep on the couch, waiting for me to come home from the movies.
Then I come to something else. Directly in front of me Lance shoots Evan over and over and kills me a million times over.
And I ask why.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I awake on the floor. I can feel blood seeping out of my nose and wipe it off of my mouth. Todd is looking at me. No, everybody is looking at me. I wipe the blood off of my face and pull Todd down to me until he is practically in my lap.
"Todd?"
"Uh... yeah?"
"You know something I don't?"
"Uh no Pietro... why would say that?"
"You seem more edgy than usual," I paused looking into his eyes and not letting him break contact, "Why do suppose that Lance opposed me and Evan being together so much?"
"I-I dunno Pietro."
"Don't. Lie. To. Me."
"But I don't..."
"DON'T LIE TO ME!!!"
"Pietro!" Jean scolded me, "he said he didn't know anything! He...."
Jean stopped in mid-sentance when she say Todd's face. He looked defeated. A tear fell from his eye.
"Alright Pietro...." Todd says, "It's only fair... you deserve to know....."
"Deserve to know?" Jean says, eyes wide, "Todd, you know something?"
"Yeah. Yeah i do." Todd took a deep breath and spoke the words I already knew yet didn't want confirmed.
"Pietro, man," Todd says, not breaking eye contact, "Lance didn't want you to hangout with Evan because... well... because Lance was in love with you."
A/N: That's all I'm givin away for now. :) Buahahahahahaahaa
