A/N Hey guys! Sorry it's taking me such a long time. I've been so busy with school lately I haven't had much time to write. I will try to update more than once a week now that school is almost over! Please don't forget to write a review and follow!
I awoke around 5:30, with a black eye and my head feeling like an anvil fell from a thirty story building right onto my head. Nevertheless I had to push through, any place is better than home. I'd much rather be trapped at school feeling sick, than be at home feeling one hundred percent.
After about 15 minutes scrolling through Instagram I rolled out of bed, and threw on a pair of blue ripped jeans, a maroon and pink striped t-shirt, and a black pair of converses. I went to the bathroom and examined my injuries. My head was still a bit bloody, though my hair did a good job of hiding the wounds. Nobody would notice unless they were looking for it. The bruises on my arm were noticeable, but would be easy to cover up. My black eye, the most noticeable of my injuries and the hardest to cover up, but I would do my best. I proceeded to put on my makeup, covering up the bruises as well as doing my normal routine. After I brushed and straightened my hair, ate breakfast, threw on a grey knitted sweater, grabbed my back pack, and headed out the door.
I realized about half way through the walk, that maybe eating breakfast was a bad idea. I was starting to feel nauseous, I bit like I was going to loose my toast and coffee right there. Thinking it could possibly be from the injury to my head. I had to sit down and take a break. I took a seat on the side of the sidewalk and rest my head in my hands.
'Stupid idea not bringing water Crystal.' I sigh
I was just about to get up and continue my walk, when I see non other than John pull over to where I was sitting. He rolled down the window. "Need a ride?" He asked with a grin. I still felt sick, and I looked up to see rain clouds forming. "Yes, I ride would be great." I said forcing a smile back. "Alright hop in!" He said unlocking the car doors. I walked over to the passengers side and stepped in.
The drive was probably around five minutes. The ride started out fun and playful, mainly us giving each other a hard time "17 and you still don't have your license." He laughed giving me a wink "Or am I just gonna have to shuttle you around everywhere?" I rolled my eyes and smiled "maybe you should start charging people, make a living out of it. You do need a job." I stuck my toung out playfully "anyway I just haven't found the time to get my hours in. Frank and Debbie are always so busy you know, and I don't really have a car." John looked like he just had a revelation, like you could see a lightbulb on top of his head ignite. "Well I could take you driving! I am technically an adult." He said proudly. I smile "Yeah, that'd be fun!" As I finished my sentence I noticed John glancing at my eye. Though he didn't say anything I know he noticed, his whole expression changed from one of happiness, to one of worry. "John?" I asked snapping him out of his deep thoughts. He looked at me then gave a forced smile. "Yeah, we should plan on it. Maybe Saturday?" "I think that'd work."
As we pulled up to the school I noticed a blue box right in front of the school. "That's strange." I said "Is that new?" John asked "I'm not sure, maybe they built it over the summer." "Maybe, but hey we should really get going, class is gonna start soon" "Yeah, we probably should."
After parting ways with John I looked down at my schedule. My first class was Biology. I groan, I was never good at science. And the teachers in the science classes were always so serious, and old. After finding the room I walk in and grab a seat in the front. I was about 5 minutes early, so students were still filing in. Starting to feel sick again I sigh and leaned back in my chair watching the minutes tick by.
I heard the door open and shut revealing a man dressed in a blue pin striped suit, with brown sticky upy hair, and glasses.
"Hello class." He spoke in a heavy British accent "My name is Mr. John Smith." He grinned "Now, is everyone sitting comfortably?" He paused for a bit. "Alright then! Allonsy!" He started to write something out on the chalk board, but I couldn't pay attention. The sick feeling from earlier was getting worse, much worse. Without realizing I started to hyperventilate and shake. "Are you alright?" A voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I looked up to see Mr. Smith giving me a concerned look. "Um, I feel a bit sick, but I'm sure it'll pass." I said trying not to seem weak. "You sure you don't want to go to the nurse's office?" "I think I'm fine." I said trying to seem strong. "Alright, if your sure." He said in a tone that made me know he wasn't buying it. He returned to his work. As time went bye the more sick I felt. My head felt like it was bitten by a bear and my stomach felt like a ticking bomb that could explode at any minute. I glanced up at the clock, only 10 minutes since the class started. Suddenly my stomach lurched. I ran to a trash can and threw up the contents of my breakfast. I heard Mr. Smith stop teaching and felt all eyes of students on me.
After I was done I heard footsteps walking over to me and felt a hand on my shoulder. Mr. Smith turned me around and flashed a noisy blue in my eye. "You have a minor concussion." He said "What's your name?" He asked "Crystal." I replied weekly. "Well Crystal, we better get you to the nurses office." "I'm fine. I just need a glass of water, that's all." He rolled his eyes and chuckled a bit. "You need more than a glass of water. Trust me, I'm a doctor." I sighed and submitted. I knew he was right, but I hated looking week. He turned to face the class "everyone turn to chapter 3. I'll be right back." We then started heading back out the door. "Crystal, I know the concussion isn't the only thing that's hurting you." I turned to look at him trying to hide my nervousness. "I'm not sure what you mean." "Crystal, I'm a very old man. I've seen things. I know when someone is being abused."
Just a shout out to everyone who reviewed! Thank you so much guys!
