Patricia tried to aviod Eddie for that next week, her mind had finally wrapped around the fact that he didn't love her. The days seemed to go in one blur, and she simply hated it. She counted down the days until she was going to see Joy and Mara during the summer. It was unbearable to see his face everyday and to know that he didn't love her back.
It was a Thursday when it happened, Patricia and Eddie shared the same P.E. class. The redhead sat on a bench and waited for the period to be over, she watched the guys chase each other around on the football field. A smirk formed on her lips, as she watched Eddie tackle one of the boys to the ground. The smile faded though when she watched the boy get up, but the thing was, Eddie didn't.
"Eddie," She whispered as her pale eyes watched the boy, who she thought was Jason, start to shake Eddie. She ran down the steps of the bleachers, and out onto the field. Patricia fell to her knees beside the American boy. "Eddie wake up!" She could tell that his eyes were moving wildly. She had seen this one other time, and she knew what was going on. Patrici'a eyes flickered to Jason for a second or so, he was watching the redhead. She took a deep breath, as she leaned down beside Eddie's face.
During the past summer, after Eddie found out he was the Osiren, she helped him nearly everyday with reserch. But there was one day, they were in his room, and he went into vision mode. He said something about the Mask of Anubis, and Nina. From that day on they both knew that it was real.
She looked down at Eddie from where she was, his face was a pale color, and his jaw clenched together. She stroked his cheek, and whispered his name. He still didn't wake.
"Hey Osiern," Patricia said softly, playing with a lock of his hair. "I know it's hard, but you need to wake up, come on Eddie, wake up." She looked over at Jason, and then to Derek who had joined them on the field. Derek looked at Patricia, a look that almost asked if she knew what was going on with Eddie. She sent him a weak smile, but starred back down at Eddie.
It was one more second, and his brown eyes popped open. She scanned his face, but Eddie only nodded. He was alright. His jaw became unclenched, and he pressed a finger to his pale lips. She nodded with her eyes, and helped him up to his knees. He leaned over by the redhead's ear.
"I need to tell you later Yacker."
She found herself curled up on Eddie's bed after the school day ended. Patricia crossed her legs, and pulled them up near her chest. Eddie took a deep breath.
"I saw you back at your house, and your eyes were cherry red. There was something about the attic," She nodded.
"That was it?" Eddie nodded.
"Yeah that was it." She moved her legs, and stood up to leave. Patricia left the room, biting her bottom lip. He got up off of his bed, and followed the redhead.
"Yacker wait!" She turned around with her red hair following her. He cupped her face in his hands, and he kissed her. She only took a couple seconds to kiss him back, but then she found herself jerking away.
"Eddie what are you doing?" The American rasied his eyebrows at her.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean why are you kissing me?" She questioned.
"Because I want to,"
"But I heard you and Jason talking the other day, you love Jenny, I heard you say that you love her." Eddie stopped looking at her, and he closed his brown eyes.
"Oh Yacker," He whispered while stroking her cheek with his thumb. "You got it all wrong, I was talking about you-" She stopped him..
"You were what?" Patricia's pale green colored eyes grew wide, as she looked at him she suddenly smiled
"Jason and Derek don't like you okay? They were here and I was trying to convice them otherwise. They think that I don't know you, and that you don't know me," Patricia nodded. "But Yacker you know me better then anyone."
"Same here. So you're not dating Jenny then?" He only laughed.
"No no I'm not dating Jenny." The redhead bit her lip before she spoke.
"So do you maybe want to give us another go?" Eddie only kissed her.
"It that why you've been avioding me?" He mumbled against her lips, and Patricia just nodded. "Don't do that again Yacker." She snaked her arms around his neck, she didn't plan to do that again.
