The Hidden Life
Chapter 3 - Reliving the Pain
Duo finally awoke and everyone commenced with dinner. Throughout the meal, each one of the guys kept glancing over at Aurora with a question lingering in their eyes. After awhile, Aurora grew annoyed because of the looks.
"Okay, that's it! I've had enough of this! Why are you all staring at me?!?!" she yelled.
"Well," Quatre spoke up timidly. "We were wondering what had happened to you before you came here." he said.
"Fine. If that's what you wanted to know, all you had to do was ask. I'll tell you what happened.
"Early this morning, I received a call from the hospital concerning my friends. I was told to go down there and fill out some paperwork. So I did, and visited my friends afterwards. They told me what had happened. They were in a car accident a few hours prior to me coming." she stopped to take a breath and to control her emotions.
"Then I left the hospital at 10:30 am so I could get ready for work. When I arrived at work at about 12:30 pm, I was greeted by some sad faces. I asked what had happened and someone just turned on the television that was in the corner of the room. On the TV some film footage was being taken by a helicopter of what looked to be the remains of a white building. I thought nothing of it at first until the news reporter revealed that the building was the hospital that I was in. I stood in shock and I think I screamed out something. I collapsed to the ground, too shock to stand properly. I quietly cried in pain and agony. About an hour later, I finally stopped crying, got up and left work. It was around 2:00 pm. I walked the streets in a dejected manner, heading towards an unknown direction. Then I literally walked into someone. That person was the person that I walked into. That person was Wufei.
"We talked for about 15 minutes, then I said goodbye and ran in the direction I was originally heading. I slowed after a while and continued to walk. Soon, I reached the cliff overhanging the ocean. I thought about jumping so I could be with my friends. I jumped, expecting to fall to my death, but instead, I was grabbed from behind before I completed my task. When I saw who the person was, I was shocked. I guess soon after I left him, Wufei had followed me. Then all of my bottled up emotions had become too much for me to bear, I passed out in his arms." At this, Duo snickered.
"Wufei must have scared her to the brink of passing out!" then he started laughing. Aurora got up and walked over to him and decked him.
"You say anything like that about Wufei or I again, I will cut off your braid and shove it so far up your ass that you wouldn't be able to sit or see straight. Now I advise you to be quiet. Understood?" she whispered dangerously to Duo who paled during the speech. He nodded. Her whispering was way worse than Heero's death glare and Wufei's threats of killing him with his katana.
"Good. Now, where did I leave off? Oh yeah. Well, then I woke up in one of these rooms, with Wufei sitting in a chair beside the bed, sleeping. He woke up, we talked some more, and came down here. He warned me about Heero. Well, that's about it." Aurora finished with her story.
"Aurora, what were your friends' names?" Quatre asked softly. Her eyes turned sad and downcast.
"Their names were Holly Holt and Samantha Paronto. We've been best friends ever since the end of our 9th grade year."
End of chapter 3
Sorry that these chapters are so short. The way I wrote it out on paper, it took well over 8 pages for each chapter. Soon, the chapters will get a little longer. Please review! Ja!
