Chapter 3- Yes
Star POV
Once the bus tipped everything was went dark. All I felt were the strong arms of Alex wrapped around my body. He was so warm. Ahh I've never been held like this by a man before. And I felt comfortable in his arms. This is weird. I feel so open and welcome with this guy that I only shared a sentence with. I held his arms against mine with little strength, for he was already.
I moved my hand up a bit on his arm so I could reach his face to see if was ok. I stopped when I felt something wet on his forearm. Blood . I opened my eyes quick to only see the blurriness from just weeks ago.
Finally I could see. I saw people around me helping up other people and some screaming from the looks of corpus. I looked but could not hear. I saw the people around me rushing around but did not hear their yells. I saw fire but heard nothing. Then I looked down to see my savoir looking at me worriedly.
"Are you okay?" he asked rather loud. I could hear him? Then everything came into tune. I hear screams, gunshots, explosions, calls for help. What happened? I looked back down at Alex and nodded. I couldn't move.
"Okay, I'm going to carry you okay?" he asked. I nodded again and without notice was swept off my feet and into Alex's arms once again. I nudged my head deep into his chest. I was way too scared and the closer I was to him the better I felt.
We soon got out of the bus and I peeked out to see what everything looked like.
It was a mess. The street and buildings were ruined. Then I saw a few people fighting.
Before I could get a better glance Alex took off behind a tree . He sat down with me on his lap.
"Do you want to let go?" he asked. I was not in the mood to just get up and walk away. I couldn't leave his presence without being worried about him. And I sort of think he feels the same about me. But then his next statement made me really believe.
"Good, cause I wouldn't let ya." He stated it as a matter-of-fact detail.
I just smiled up at him and grabbed his shirt tighter.
He seemed to like it and tightened his grip around me. I blushed and nudged my face back into his chest. I think he saw me blush before I could hide it because he laughed a bit.
Oh that laugh could put me to sleep. Wow wait, Kori? What are you thinking? You just meant the guy!
The thought didn't last to long before someone was thrown into the car parked near us. I saw a bit of his armor a recognized it to be Cyborg.
"Rob, we need to contact Star! We need her!" yelled Cyborg.
"Come on dude! Their beaten' us already!" said BB.
"NO! WE DO NOT NEED HER! SHE DOES NOTHING TO HELP! SO GROW UP AND FIGHT!" yelled the one kid I hated the most.
I began to whimper. I did not want to cry in front of Alex. He was so kind to me. And I was just a stranger to him.
"Kori, are you hurt?"Alex asked.
"Only mentally." I felt more hate in that boy of wonder than ever before. I will call Slade. Today if I can. I didn't even want to go back for my things at the Titians Tower. Out of nowhere Alex scooped me back up and brought me to the newly arrived medial vans. What do earth people call them? Um, oh yes! An ambulance.
When we got there he set my down on the bumper and told the police what happened. I guess he was the only one out of shock to speak. I wouldn't let go of him so he managed to hold my hand instead so the doctors could take a look at my damages.
"Except for being in the shocked state she is now, she is fine. Just some minor bruises on the head and arms." The doctor told Alex. Alex nodded and said thank you.
"As for you," The doctor said looking at Alex.", you may need some stitches on that arm."
I looked at Alex. He looked worried. I guess he doesn't like stitches.
"How about some butterflies and we could go home." He finally said to the doctor.
"Well I guess that would be fine, mayb-" he was interrupted.
"Awesome I have some at home. Thanks doc." He said as many more people were coming up to the van. I started walking and let him drag me along. Within twenty minutes of non-talking I decided to speak and use my voice.
"Thank you." Was all I could think of.
We stopped and he looked down at me. I just stared at him, in those big brown eyes. He then scooped me back up into his cozy hold and started talking.
"It was my pleasure. And if your wondering were we are going, It's to my home." He replied.
Why did he use 'his home' instead of 'house'? I guess I'll find out soon enough. And then soon enough came and we were in front of a normal suburb household. You could tell it indeed needed a 'women's touch'. He carried me inside. I looked around and what I saw amazed me. It was a cut civil modern day home with a bit of country style to it. To my right was what I guessed to be the area of living, um, the living room! That's it. Then to my left was the dining area. In front of us was a staircase and next to it I tiny hall where you could manage to see what I think is a kitchen. We walked through the little hallway and into the kitchen. Alex set me down on the counter and reached for the phone about two feet away.
"I just have to ask my , um, dadif I could have guests." he told me.
"Ok." I replied.
He then picked up the phone and dialed a number. I suppose it was ringing because a few seconds later he started talking.
AN-I'm going to skip Alex's POV to the previous time. I will not have his POV from the start of the crash.
Alex POV-
"Alex?" asked Craig.
"Hey Craig!" I replied.
"I'm in the middle of buiesness, so, what is it you need?"
"I wanted to know if I could bring over a friend?" I knew he wouldn't be to happy about this. He probably thinks I lost my mind.
"Are you crazy?" he answered obviously confused. "Wait who is this you want to bring home?"
"It's a girl named Kori , um-" I looked at Kori questionably "Anders" she replied very quiet.
"Anders." I finished.
"Oh has she agreed to join me?" What was he talking about?
"What do you mean?" I didn't understand. How does he know her?
"Let me speak to her." I gave the phone to Kori.
Kori POV-
He gave me the phone. His dad wanted to talk to me?
"Hello?" I asked unsure of what to say.
"Ah Kori, it seems that you have never told me on you decision. Yes or No?" Slade? He was Alex's dad?
"Slade? Wow ,well um, I did make up my mind." I did have my decision written out but was I sure?
"And that is?" he asked. I knew my answer so I shall say it. I looked at Alex to see him confused. I refocused on the phone. Say it Kori.
"Yes"
Ok so here is Chapter 3. I have made up my mind that this will be about 20 chapters long and may be a sequel so don't worry I'm not ending it to soon!-kbaby
