Dangerous || Connor Ball

Chapter 17 || Crash

I was listening to the song Crash by Jamie McDell when writing this hence the name (NO ACTUAL CRASH INVOLVED AHAHAH)

"Come here." Connor says, picking me up and carrying me over to the passenger side of the car. He puts my seat belt on me before going around the front of the car and getting in on his side. We drive in silence until we reach his house. None of us move to get out of the car at first until I speak up. "How did you find me?" I whisper.

"I had a feeling that you might have gone to Felix's house and when I saw what was happening in there with him and some girl I guessed you would have already seen so I drove around trying to find you." Connor looked over at me and I just kept looking forward.

"Why were you looking for me anyway?"

"I didn't want you to walk in the rain." The car was silent again, it was like that for several minutes.

"It was Velvet."

"What?"

"The girl, with Felix, it was her." Connor takes my hand.

"Let's go inside and get you cleaned up." I nod before getting out of the car and walking with Con towards the front door.

"Is you family home?" I ask.

"No, why?"

"I don't want them to see me like this." I sigh. Connor opens up the door and we walk inside.

"Follow me." he says and I do so, following the way up to his bedroom. He rummages through his draws and pulls out a Harry Potter shirt and sweat pants. "They're most likely WAY too big for you and I know you love Harry Potter..."

"Thanks." I force a smile and Con gives me a look, the 'I know you're not happy and that smile is fake' look. I shiver due to my soaked clothes and Connor goes to a cupboard in the hallway.

"Here is a towel, feel free to have a shower. You know where the bathroom is." I thank him once again before taking my stuff to the bathroom he obviously shared with his brother. I lock the door before stripping my clothes off and turning on the hot water. Maybe if I'm lucky enough then having a shower will wash away the depressed feeling, if only it were that easy. Before getting in I briefly glance at my reflection in the mirror. My makeup had smudged and my black hair which I had ever so neatly styled was in knots and falling from the hair pins. Basically, I was a mess: physically, mentally, and socially.

After combing the knots out of my hair, washing the makeup off of my face and warming up I get out of the shower not wanting to be too long and use up water that wasn't even mine. I get dry and put on the clothes Connor had given me. I had to tie up the string on the sweat pants as tight as possible so they wouldn't fall down, not like it would matter considering how long Con's shirt was on me. I hang up my towel on the rack and gather up my wet clothes, shutting the bathroom door as I leave. "Violet?" Con calls out.

"Yeah?"

"I'll wash your wet clothes." Connor walks out of his room, takes my clothes and goes down the stairs. "Make yourself at home." I awkwardly walk into his room and sit on his bed. His room was rather clean for a boy, if I may say so myself. Although he had his Harry Potter movies scattered on the floor in front of his TV. I get up to go look at the DVDs. "Ah yes I left those out for you. But first, stand up please." I do as he says. He walks over to me and wraps his arms around me. I rest my head on his chest.

"Aren't you going to tell me 'I told you so'?" I mumble.

"I was before I actually saw what he did."

"You mean him making out with Velvet?"

"No." I look up at him questioningly. "I mean hurting you. No one hurts my best friend." he says harshly, frowning at the wall. A thought runs through my head.

'All but you, my best friend, Connor.'
