I walked down the hallways, looking for someone, anyone. I walked down to the front desk where a short lady sat down.
"Hey, I was wondering how long I've been here. I haven't been able to find out yet." The lady turned up to me, her face full with a questioning expression. Of course, she probably doesn't even know who I am. "I'm Scarlet, Scarlet Young." The woman smiled then, obviously recognising the name.
"Oh, yes of course. I thought those three boys would have told you. They've been in and out of here all night. The visitors records are full of their names, like, one whole list. Do you even know who they are?" She threw so much my way, I was confused what to say first. I stood there for a moment later before I answered.
"Yes, I go to school with them, Tyler, Gabriel and Trent." I looked at her again and she was smiling at me, this made my stomach go funny. It almost felt empty, and made me feel sick. I leaned over, clutching my stomach as a sharp pain shot through it. The ladies face was full of concern.
"Sweaty, are you okay?" She asked. I looked up at her, her face had gone pale. She came out of the desk and ran down the hall, pushing through one of the doors. Only a few seconds later, Tyler came down the hall. He was sprinting really fast, I swear he had rollerblades with rockets on the back of them. My vision slurred, and I had trouble keeping my balance. I felt myself fall towards the ground. All I could do was try to stay conscious, which has been very difficult for me. Tyler came just in time, and caught me, just before I hit the ground. He lifted me up into his arms, and held me carefully, cradling my body against his. I could feel his heart beat through my body, it was quick, but started to slow when he caught his breath. I looked up at him. He had obviously been woken by the lady at the front desk. His eyes were bloodshot from the lack of sleep, and had dark half moons under them too. I smiled at him, trying to say I was okay. He smiled back and started to walk me back to my room. As he made it to my door, he turned around and kicked the door with the back of his boot. I gave a short laugh at this, it was a small gesture but so smart. If I was in his position, I probably would have used my elbow, or even hit my head against the door. That would not be very smart, I quickly thought. The door opened quickly, and Tyler took me in sideways, slowly, trying not to hit my head on the door frame. He took me over to the uncomfortable plastic bed. He lied me down, and pulled a small sheet up to my waist. I gave him a thankful smile. I noticed Gabriel had sat up from his tiny ball, that had made him look so small from his normal muscular self, and that Trent had been the one who opened the door and still stood there.
"Hey, Scarlet, I have to go home. I'll drop by your house and let you mum know that you're okay." He wouldn't look at me, and was just staring at his feet.
"Yeah. Okay, I'll see you later, and tell her that I love her." I smiled at him, and he didn't face me and just walked out of the door and started to close it behind him, flicking his eyes to mine just before it had shut fully, which was notified with a click.
"What were you doing out of bed," Gabriel asked, staring at me. I stared back, but couldn't hold his gaze. I felt both Gabriel's, and Tyler's eyes staring at me. I could feel that they both weren't going to stop staring until I told them. Yet, I didn't even know why I had started walking, I basically just wanted to get away from the plastic bed, the thin sheets that felt like straw, and the smell. The smell of antiseptics burnt my nose.
"I needed air. I'm literally suffocating from the smell of this hospital." I looked up know, flicking my eyes between the two boys. I was thankful they were both here, so I didn't have to stare them on the eyes, I would probably just laugh uncontrollably until I saw the serious expression. They both then lost their serious glares, and their faces became calm. I dropped my gaze now, and stared at my hands, which I fiddled with. I could feel their eyes on me. They felt as if I had done something horrible, yet I never knew it. Then again, had I? Maybe I had, and to them it would be worse than murder. Then again I hadn't. I was confusing myself now.
"I can see something's bothering you." I looked up, and saw concern pasted on Tyler's face. I looked over at Gabriel, his emotion was unreadable. I didn't know how to answer Tyler, I felt as if there was a raging fire coming straight for me. But I was stuck, in thick black tar. The more I moved, the more I sunk. I was stuck, my life was coming to a terrible and painful end. It was like my body was trying to move, and the only one who could get me out, was gone, and had left me. He was the only one who could pick my pieces of puzzle up, and put them back together. I always felt full, just like a puzzle, a puzzle of life. We fit together. But, who was this? It hit me then. The one who made me feel full wasn't here. He was gone, and I wanted him back more than anything. I wanted him to come back and put everything back together. This whole time, I had half ignored him, because of two very hot guys. But at least I know what I want, but after all this time, does he still want me? Will Trent ever want me back. I did not know what I was going to do now while I am in the hospital, but as soon as I am ready, that is the first place I am going to go.
