The nurse didn't have much more for Naomi; actually, she didn't have anything more to do for her. The elderly salt and pepper haired woman had asked what happened, whose fault was it, how it started, and every other question that should be asked, but the blond just didn't want to get into it. She decided to skip her next class, next two classes actually. She was going to skip right up until lunch, and she wasn't going to go to any of the rest of her classes, but she wanted to see her lover, needed to. Naomi waited until the middle of the next class period and moved out to the athletic fields, which seemed strange since she wasn't into sports whatsoever. Maybe it was because she knew that no one would be out there, at least not until much later in the day.
She reached into her bag as she took a seat in one of the baseball dugouts and pulled out a cigarette, followed by a lighter. Her thumb flicked over the lighter and instantly a flame emerged. Crystal blue pools stared into the wavering flame as she finally moved it to the tip of the smoke. She took in a deep breath in and let the smoke out through her nostrils. The cigarette was burning the cut on her bottom lip and she was so frustrated she tossed the stick out onto the dirt infield.
Naomi pulled out her cell phone to type a simple text to Emily, seeing as they weren't meeting in their usual spot. Her fingers expertly typed the short note and read it before pushing the send button. "Meet me at the ball fields. Sorry for the change. I love you. N"
-----------------------------------------------------------
Emily was impatient through her next courses. She hadn't been able to properly pay attention to anything that her professors were preaching about at the front of the classroom. Her phone vibrated in her bag and she picked it up and glanced at the text. Lips curled into a smile as she saw who it was from, and then she read it. For some reason, the change bothered her. Maybe it was because she was so irritated about the anonymous note she had received in that first class of the day, or maybe it wasn't irritation at all. The younger twin knew it shouldn't bother her, she was happily in love with Naomi, but she couldn't help the fact that it flattered her to have someone who thought of her as more of just Katie's twin sister.
The red head moved quickly the moment she was out of class, heading in the direction of the ball fields. By the time she reached the doors to the outside, she was running. Urgency forced her to go faster. Her breathing was ragged, and her heart was racing by the time she reached the ball fields, and her chocolate browns were searching everywhere. Finally she looked over and saw a blond head of hair sitting in the dugout. Her pace slowed until she reached the steps which would bring her down next to her love. The blond head was down in her hands, which made Emily proceed with caution. Softly she took her seat next to the love of her life and reached her hand up to brush the blond locks behind her ear.
What she saw caused her free hand to come up to try to cover a gasp. Scratches covered her neck and she had a fat lip with a thin cut down it. The red head quickly moved off her seat to kneel in front of Naomi, which only showed her more scratches along her cheek and along her upper chest. She was speechless, her brown orbs moved from one wound to the next. Tightness around her chest caused her already irregular breathing to catch, and tears threatened to fall. Emily wanted to kiss each and every wound, wanted to heal her lover, wanted to kill whomever had done this to her. "Na…" her small voice caught in her throat, but she tried again, "Naomi, what's happened to you… who… who did this to you?" Her hand moved forward and she softly tilted Naomi's head up so she could look in the stunning azure hues. There was a pain in them, more than just a physical pain.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The blond felt her love sit down next to her, but she couldn't bear to raise her head. Even as her hair was being pushed behind her ear, she was stationary. Naomi could feel the chocolate hues traveling over her skin, and if it wasn't because of the wounds, she would have enjoyed that fact. She tried to push Emily's hands away from her, but she ended up just holding onto the twin's small, soft hands. The blond knew that Emily was expecting answers, knew she wanted to know what was going on, but she didn't want to be the one to drive a wedge between the twins. She loved the younger twin too much for that. "P… please, Ems… I… I don't want to talk about it right now." Her ocean blue orbs were pleading with her lover.
The look across Naomi's face broke the red head's heart. Her voice was soft, "Okay, Naomi… you don't have to talk about it. But, I'm not leaving you… let's go. I'll have Katie go to our classes to get the homework that's due tomorrow." The blue eyes flashed back up to chocolate browns for but a moment as the blond head shook, which confused the twin. Since when did Naomi not want to have her homework to complete? This whole thing was getting even stranger… A light went off in her head. It wasn't the homework that was bothering her lover; It was who would be bringing their homework. She knew there was no love loss between her sister and her lover, but it just didn't make sense unless… "it was Katie…" her raspy voice whispered as her head shook back and forth before she raised her gaze. "Katie did this to you, didn't she?" Her voice remained soft, but it was laced with pain.
The only thing Naomi did was nod her head, that's all she could do.
