Hi! So sorry I didn't update yesterday, but it was my friend's birthday so I went out with her, though I did say I would update every other day and I have been updating each day sooo... will probably just keep updating each day... what do you think?
LUCY POV
I slowly opened my eyes to a bright room, hospital, I immediately thought. Then I had to think back about why I was here. Then I remembered. Jason. That son of a bi-, no, Lucy you said worse in that alley, let's not keep on swearing (sorry I am not a curser).
I heard movement, so I opened my eyes a bit more to see, a man leaning forward in a chair his hands in the praying position. I don't think he was praying though. On the other side of the room, there were three girls and two boys who all looked worried. I was about to say hello, when I thought to myself 'No, Lucy. Your first words from waking up have to be good and hello isn't,' so instead I went for.
'Glad to see I get such a reaction from getting injured,' as soon as I said those words (a little croakily, I must admit), the man in the praying position, who I now recognised as Joe, jumped up along with the three girls, who were my roommate, and the two boys, my old Blackthorne friends. Joe was the first to speak.
'How are you doing?' He had his stern voice because his students were in the room, but his eyes showed so much concern, it worried even me.
'Alright, I suppose, could I have a drink?' I asked, still quite croaky.
Gracie who looked like she had been crying, (like I said we have only known each other for a while, but we are like sisters now) nodded quickly.
'I'll go get you one now, is water okay?' I smiled and nodded, and she ran out of the room as fast as she could. Once she left Joe turned to the others,
'I would like to speak to Lucy alone, too see what happened that night if that is okay?' he lied efficiently; the others nodded and left, closing the door behind them. Joe looked at me again, his whole face now showing concern.
'It was you, that pulled Jason off me wasn't it?' I asked. He nodded.
'Yes, I heard you whisper the directions and I came straight away. You were only just awaked then, and your head was bleeding badly,' he said seriously.
'Thank you, so much,' I said with the same amount of seriousness.
'You know I would always protect you Lucy,'
'I would never doubt that you wouldn't Joe, never.' I whispered quietly, of course he heard it and took my hand. I looked at him, half smiling.
'Now, where is that complete and utter idiot, and how badly injured is he?' Joe tried to hide a grin, but failed miserably.
'He is next door, and should be coming out of his one day coma now, and look no one knew that you had comms, so how would I know if you were in trouble. So the story is he slammed your head across the wall, but you managed to punch him. Hard enough to make him stumble backwards and hit his head on the wall opposite, okay?' by now I was laughing, of how serious he was, admittedly it was a serious subject but the way he said the 'plan' made him sound like a seven year old and their friend who were in serious trouble so were making up a cover story to make it seem less bad.
I nodded and agreed, just as Gracie was coming back in with the water.
'Here you go, sorry it took so long, but the water machine down the hall was broke so I had to run to the kitchen to get some water and that took aggeeess,' she said, dragging out the ages, after she said it she noticed Joe standing there looking amused and she immediately turned dark red.
'Uh, sorry Mr. Solomon. I didn't mean to... uh... I'll just go...' she mumbled before running out of the room.
It had been two days since i woke up in the infirmary, and I was let out yesterday. Luckily I only missed one day of school work, so there wasn't that much catching up to do. Not that I didn't know all of it already.
Me, Gracie, Michelle and Katie were walking to COW, when somebody grabbed my shoulder and spun me round. If it hadn't been for my still badly sprained ankle I would have kicked the person right away, but because of my ankle, I couldn't.
I was spun round to face a sorry looking Jason, whose nose was badly swollen, from where I had broken it and he had a black eye. No doubt from Joe. I didn't give him time to speak though, because I, Gracie, Michelle and Katie just turned round and continued to walk to COW,our last lesson before tea.
'Hey! Wait! I want to talk to you!' Jason shouted, this made me annoyed so I spun round again to face him.
'Well guess what dimwit; I don't want to talk to you!' I hissed at him, then turned round and continued. This time though he didn't try to stop me, but instead called out.
'It's not my fault you got hurt, you should have been a better fighter and defended yourself like I did,' I smirked.
'Really? How's the nose and the eye?' Gracie laughed and Michelle high fived me, fist pumping was for Blackthorne only. We didn't get a reply from Jason, but I knew he was there, following me all the way to COW. In the end i got so fed up I turned to him,
'You lost or something, because I'm sure the 'little boys room' is down that corridor,' I said sarcastically pointing the completely opposite direction to the one that we are going. Although I am not showing it, I don't want to be anywhere near him, encase he tries something again. Jason just narrowed his eyes at my comment.
'You're my guide remember?'
'Never said yes to that, so go find another girl to harass,' I narrowed my eyes at him 'metaphorically OR literally,' this time when I turned round, Jason didn't follow me.
Hi, sorry this was meant to go up yesterday, but I didn't have the time because I was going out... sorry!
