A World Alone
Chapter 2
"But now what do I do?" I wondered aloud.
I walked back to the room and found the guy sitting up awake.
"Feeling any better?"I asked.
"I'm feeling as well as can be expected."He replied.
"My sister will be coming up here later and well....."
"Oh..Yeah. Well I think I'll be all right..."He said as he started to get up and then fell back against the bed in pain. I quickly helped him lay back down from which he returned to a sitting position.
"Ummm..Where do you live?"
"I've just been staying with a friend."
"Can I take you there?"
"My friend would probably freak out. Why don't you leave me at a hotel? I'll be okay there."
"Number One. You can barely stand. Number two. If this is as serious as you make it seem you might be in danger. And Number Three. Your wounds seem serious and they'll need to be tended to. So I'll take you to the hotel and stay with you until you've healed." I said triumphant that he would have to accept my help.
"I guess but only for tonight."He said realizing defeat.
"Alright now we have to down the stairs fast before my sister comes up here."
"I'll go check to make sure and then we'll get you outta' here."
I ran down the stairs and peeked into the shop. I saw she was busy with a customer and ran up stairs to get.... *I don't even know his name* I thought.
I ran back into the room and helped him get up and down the stairs. Then as we reached the bottom I heard the cash register ring and my sister lock the door to the shop. *Oh No! My sister will be in here any second now*
"Try to move quickly my sister's coming."I hissed worriedly. We made it to the door as I heard the door from the shop open. I flung open the door and practically shoved him outside and shut the door.
"Sorry for pushing you." I said after her footsteps had receded up the stairs.
"Lets see the nearest hotel is about four blocks away. Do you think you can make it that far?"
"Yeah I'll survive."
"Okay let's go."
Authors Note: Okay I'm gonna drag out another chapter from this story. Sorry. But I will hopefully finish it sooner than this one. I hope to make the next chapter the last but it may become four chapters. Just wait and see.
