Chapter 4
GUY'S P.O.V
I didn't sleep much that night. Thinking constantly about how to persuade Connie into telling us who really beat her so badly. All the ducks knew about what had happened that night and knew to play it cool with her, all acting that they believed her story about falling over. I finally did get to sleep but my thoughts still haunted me then. I dreamt Ryan was beating Connie up while I was right there but I couldn't stop him then Connie died. I woke up panting to find Charlie and Adam already up. Luckily for me my first class was with Connie and didn't start while 9.30 and my last class was at 2.30, again with Connie.
"Morning". I said groggily when I entered the main room to see all the ducks getting breakfast and leaving. "Where's Connie and Julie"? I asked Ken noticing neither girl were present.
"Julie's just grabbing her bag and none of us have seen Connie today". He replied, then when Julie returned she headed to class with him.
Pretty soon I was the only one left and got pretty bored of waiting for Connie to make an appearance. I knocked gently on her door and waited. I didn't want to intrude on anything, well I wouldn't say didn't but we had only just started getting back to being able to actually hold a conversation with each other.
"Come in".
"Connie, you almost ready"? I asked before I caught a glimpse of her still laid in bed.
"I'm not coming Guy".
"Why"?
"I can't go looking like this can I? People are bound to gossip".
"They'll gossip if you don't". I tried persuading.
"They won't. If anyone asks just say I'm not feeling too good". The excuse exited her lips naturally, but then again if it was Ryan that had been beating her then she'd had plenty of practise.
"I'll stay here with you". I offered.
"Guy you can't. We have a test today and if neither of us are there then it'll look suspicious".
"Ok, I'll go for that then come back". I didn't want to leave her on her own.
"Guy, I'll be fine. You need to go to all our classes to get notes for me".
"Fine, but if there aren't many then don't blame me". I laughed trying to crack a smile on her almost fully black face.
Looking at her, she had two big black eyes, a split lip which was now bruised as well, the few cuts on her cheeks had scabbed over slightly and were surrounded by bruising. Her whole face looked chubby because of the swelling so there was no wonder she didn't want to go in to school.
"See you later". Connie tried smiling then turned over onto her other side.
"Yeah, see ya". I whispered then exited the room.
My first class was uneventful and the test was easy compared to all the others we'd had that year. After the class I met up with Charlie and Julie for Algebra. We were walking the halls when the thorn in my side Ryan stepped in front of us.
"Where's Connie"? He demanded.
"Away from you". Julie stormed past him.
"Ignore her, she's just pissed because you haven't called by to check on her after her fall yesterday". I excused Julie's behaviour.
"Oh, I might pop round later to see her". He told us.
"I wouldn't bother, she'll probably not want to see you". Charlie began trying his hardest to remain civil. "I mean none of us except Julie has seen her. She doesn't want anyone to see her black eye". Charlie continued. I let out an inward sigh of relief that he was still able to remain calm.
"Look, we've gotta dash for class., See you around sometime". I almost dragged Charlie away to wear Julie was stood scowling at Ryan. "Gee's Julie, why didn't you tell him we knew he beat Connie". I hissed at her.
"I'm sorry, but I never could stand the guy and now I hate him even more". Julie looked apologetic.
"We all know how you feel but until Connie confesses we can't go around throwing out accusations". I slung my arm over her shoulders and the three of us walked to class together.
I knew exactly how Julie felt, I knew deep down it must have been Ryan, I knew those kind of bruises and all the excuses in the book. I had never told anyone not even the ducks but after my Dad died when I was younger my Mom got a new boyfriend and he had beat her to near death until she finally admitted she needed to do something about it before he turned on me and my sister Alyssa.
Normally my last class was with Connie and we were the first to finish. She would usually go straight back to the dorm to get ready for a date with Ryan whilst I waited for the ducks to finish. I wanted to go and see Connie straight away but awaited the ducks. I knew Connie was feeling a little better as both Julie and I had popped back at lunch to check on her. I think the ducks all thought that the situation would bring me and Connie closer together if not back together, truthfully I secretly hoped the same but what with Ryan there was no way I was about to abuse her trust in me by suggesting that we start over.
Eventually the ducks reappeared and we began heading back to the dorms. I was racing ahead of the others with Julie. Although the others were worried about Connie, I think they were more concerned about Julie and myself getting ideas in our heads.
When we got to our suite door we practically burst through the door to find....
HAHAHAHA you'll just have to wait to see won't you!!!! PLEASE R&R!!!!!!
