Well at least I didn't take as long as I did on the last Chapter! ^_^ I'm
just in the mood for Fluff right now! Well on to chapter 8!
~~~~Chapter eight: Real World~~~
"April.April! Hello! I'm talking to YOU April!..APRIL!!!!!!" I snapped back
from my CNN update when I heard Magda's Impatient voice. I was in the Real
World at Magda's house. I remember spending the night there.
"Oh God, Magda I'm sorry.I'm just not..thinking clearly." I responded.
"It seems your not thinking clearly at all lately." My other friend, Alison
said.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"You've been a space case April. You aren't yourself lately." Said Magda.
"Yah, well I'm really sorry you guys. I've got soooo much on my mind"
"Like Christopher Hitchcock?" Asked Alison with a grin.
"WHAT?!" I shouted.
"You mumbled his name in your sleep last night." Magda laughed.
"Oh god." I hid my face in embarrassment.
"You don't really like him do you?" Asked Alison, now serious.
"Honey, the guys all wrong for you." Said Magda also serious.
"No! Of course I don't!" I told them. But the thing was, I wasn't so sure I
told the truth.
I Don't know what took me to Christopher's house later that afternoon.
Maybe I had to find out for sure if I have feelings beyond friendship for
him. I also don't know why I spent so long on my hair and makeup. Just the
he answered the door.
"April?" He asked trying to hide the surprise in his voice.
"Cute jammys." I said pointing to his pyjamas. They had little happy faces
on them.
He blushed but recovered quickly. "What brings you hear? Other then my good
looks?"
"Oh please. What good looks?" I quipped.
"Ouch." He smiled.
"Well all my friends were busy, so I wondered if I could hang out here." I
made up a reason.
He seemed to think this was weird but let me in his house and sat on the
couch beside me.
"Well it's only us here." He informed me.
"Cool." Was all I could say.
"April.are you ok over there?" He asked softly.
"Your over there?" I asked.
"Guess so" he replied. "But you didn't answer my question."
"No, I'm.We're not ok." I said fighting to keep my voice calm.
"What's happening?" He asked sounding panicked.
"David and Jalil are in jail, I've been kidnapped by a psychotic king who
wants to marry me, and your.I don't know where you are. I was hoping you
were asleep there so you could tell me."
"April.Maybe I should hear this from the beginning." He said.
I sighed deeply and told the hole story, from when we took our baths to
when Sirin tried to abuse me. By the end of the story, I was in tears and
Christopher was holding me tightly.
"Shhh, April its ok." He whispered in my ear.
"No its not. You.you could be dead, and David and Jalil will be dead and
its..all my fault!"
"Sweetie please calm down."
"Did you just call me Sweetie?" I had to smile at that. I could never
imagine Christopher to have a sensitive side.
"Yes I did." He smiled. "And I bet you I'm kicking that guys ass right now
over there."
Despite the situation I couldn't help but laugh.
"April, I promise you'll be ok. I'll make sure of that." He ran a hand
through my hair.
"Thank you." I whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I opened my eyes I found I was not at Christopher's house anymore, but
I was back at my room in Sirin's castle.
DAMN!
But wait.Something.someone was there. They were so close to my face I could
feel they're breath on my cheek. Oh No! Please don't be Sirin, PLEASE don't
be Sirin!
But I wasn't. No this was
"Chirstopher?" I asked.
"Hi." He said weakly.
