Once Grey

Chapter 10: strange

I went back to my dorm room . Kaylie wasn't there which was good by the way . Because I wouldn't want to explain why i was the way I appeared to be . She worried for me which honestly I felt very touched by her gestures but I really didn't have many female friends who always stuck around but I guess she's genuine.i immediately took a bath which I savored every moment with pleasure as the water washed down my body I felt relieved and the feeling was soothing. I stepped out of the bath and dressed in my school uniform ..yh this university has a uniform probably because of the ivy league reputation but whatever , it consisted of a short flare skirt which was black a white shirt which was followed by a black coat and a red tie to top it all ,we wore this every day except Fridays , I tied my hair into a bun .Just as I was about to leave the hostel Maid came in to clean so I just told her to give the keys to the boarding mistress when she was done , she looked really young to be working as a maid she had a pretty face I will admit but a scar line was crossed on her jaw. I would have really loved to know more about the rest of her features but I'm almost late and my phone won't stop buzzing because of Alan's constant text message.
"Hey Walker " I smiled as I walked towards my best friend who was leaning against a black Lexus, trust Alan to change cars like panties. I stretched out my hand for a fist bump but he pulled me into a hug instead. And i will be lying if I said I didn't feel better.
"Don't you ever runaway like that okay?" He said still hugging be very tight.
"How can I even think of that when you are hugging me so tight I can't move" .he stiffled a laugh and then released me and then took my hand in his looking really worried and distant but then he quickly masked it with a smile
"Get into the car " he said if Alan reacted this way then he was gonna pull out the big brother card once we got in.
"Okay " I said and he opened the door of the front seat and I slid in.
Silence for 5mins
" It's okay now you can say what you want to say" I said feeling annoyed that he was trying to give me the silent treatment.
" Say what " his gaze didn't leave the road.
" Scold me" I said looking outside.
"You think I like talking to you that way , I care about you , we all do but you keep putting yourself in danger, I know you well Andrea and I will be kidding if I said you didn't have a suicide thought while you were away, you need to start leavx because right now you just exists."
My eyes watered but I blinked a few times so it didn't show not because he was angry..well that too but also because he was right I wasn't living I was only existing . I didn't even realize we were already in school. I know I don't cry often but this was my best friend and I had made him. Worry and I feel really terrible but I can't change it . I always make people worry and I never put smiles on their faces but tears.
" I'm sorry Alan" that's when he turned from the wheel and tried to engulf me in a hug but I simply pushed him away and left the car. Honestly I wasn't angry with him I just didn't want him to see me cry because he will start apologizing instead. It's just my head that is fucking messing with me because it always puts the worst in my mind and is really hard to erase the negativity. I walked in the hall ways and i ran to the ladies room . Some girls threw me worried looks but I ignored and went in. I'm very sure they know I'm very crazy . I mean who didn't know the Hernandez family even my life was like a TV show we were like cheese to the cameras , I was even surprised no one spoke about it but then again trust my mom to make every one shut up. I washed my face fixed my hair and walked to my first class of today. 
I sat on my desk and of course my desk mate wasn't in class infact it was a miracle if he ever attended a class. That brings me to wondering if he's in this school just for show but whatever the day passed faster than I imagined. Not that i cared being alone but I didn't see anyone from my entourage in school today which is strange because Cari will never miss a class as important as this one but then again she will do anything possible not to get eye contact with me after what happened yesterday and well Valeria was the fun type so she was probably hung over , I wonder if Valeria was a part of this. I came with Alan so it was but normal I had to go back with him . I scanned the parking lot but I  didn't see Alan neither was his black sleek Lexus insight . He left you Andrea .. he's tired of putting up with your shit. "Shut the fuck up" . I muttered almost loudly which earned me some stares. You know it's the truth ..soon every one will leave you too ..just like Jason did. " No , no , no "So I called his number. Even if Alan and I fought we Always made up before mid day but this wasn't a fight was it? Maybe he's mad at me and wants to really leave me tears welled up in my eyes I couldn't think of a life without my best friend. The tears made my vision blurry my head was really hazy I really don't know why I keep  being so weak I would've preferred to have cancer than being mental. I suddenly felt my feet leave me and I was afraid I will land on the floor and probably hit my head on a rock and my blood will be every where on the school grounds I didn't realise I started having a panic attack until I was engulfed with cold yet soft arms but that was it , it just ended black.
Where I belonged.

Don't take him away please... Jason don't leave me stay with me.
I woke up sweaty and hyperventilating when I took in my environment and noticed I was in a completely  different environment a rather big room with one king sized bed which of course I was currently lying on I sat up before I watched a figure get in the room and I froze who knows maybe he's a serial killer and he took me away without anyone noticing.way to go Andrea . Trust yourself to be the must optimistic person ever.

That's when I notice the guy with jet black hair and those well known puppy dog brown eyes with a perfect well shaped face with angular features which I very well knew.
"You" I said with a frown.
"If that's how you say thank you then you're welcome" he said with a smirk." Do you always have to fall when you see me, yh I do know girls are head over heels for me but you are over reacting" he said with a grin . He really is cocky and so full of himself.
" So what , you're eye raping me now." He teased
" You must be delusional to think that" i told him standing up and straightening my uniform and i started looking for my coat which obviously he had removed.
" Looking for this?" He asked holding it with his index finger.i marched over to where he was standing and tried grabbing it but he slid it behind him .
"Give me that" i said as I managed to get a hold of the jacket and i stomped out with the rest of my things . Thing is how was I going to get back. My mind couldn't help saying see what you got yourself into. My situations might sound mild sometimes but my condition makes it sound so much horrible. I stepped on the hall ways and noticed some boys whispering and averting their eyes to me. Do guys Even do that, you know whisper to each other..well I thought it was a gurl thing. It seems coming out from his apartment was some sort of curse . Some girls passed as I walked towards the elevator and giggled remarking how I might be the lucky one. When u reached down I realised this was utterly a different unit for boys before I thought I will just look for Alan when I'm out but now I'm just going back to the boy I walked away from. I knocked once , twice and he opened the door standing there shirtless and breathtakingly handsome.shut up Andrea you are just marvelled that's all. Water dripped from his hair and his abdomen was..
" Done staring , you can move to touching now" he smirked.
" Um... I wasn't staring  a.and  I need your help ."
" And you think I'm gonna accept because.."
" Because..well because " I knew when I was wrong and I couldn't get out of it now so I just said what he wanted to hear" look I'm sorry I walked out without saying thank you, so now I'm telling you thank you from my heart" I forced a smile.
" That wasn't hard " he said going and coming back with a white t shirt over denim pants and a black jacket.
" How come you don't attend classes yet you come to school."I asked as he drove.
" Site seeing I guess".
" Are you even a student here cuz you attend zero classes." I pointed out
" Not actually zero , more like 2 out of 10 "he smiled
" Whatever"he dropped me off and I will be kidding if I said I didn't earn stares. Why was he so important anyway.
" Bye Grey, don't miss me too much " he winked
" You wish".
I walked into. my dorm room . I felt strangely happy. Not like something major happened but yet I was feeling relieved. Quite strange.
