Fox Class?

Chapter 17

WRITER'S NOTE: Hello! just letting you all know that this chapter is the last of the 'torture' but isn't. (I'm not too sure how to put what I'm saying into words, but I hope it make sense)

"Hey, Alluro. It's me, Vincent. Show me what you need me to do." I say quietly trying not to disturb her too much.

"Vincent?" She croaks.

Her voice sounds pained and raw, like she's been screaming in agony for hours without end.

"Yeah, it's me. You're okay. You're safe. Just tell me what you need me to do." I continue.

"What are you doing here? Please, go away." She says.

"No, I won't. I'm going to help you."

"Please just...go." She says, tensing up again trying to supress a scream, "Please, hurry up. It's taking too long. I know, but please. Please."

"Alluro? Who are you talking to?"

She doesn't respond. She just curls up and trembles.

"Alluro? Hey, it's me Vincent? Remember me?"

I can hear her whimpering. My heart aches from just hearing her whimper in pain. "Stay away from me please. Just go, Vincent. Go."

"No. I won't leave you. Not until you get better. That's a promise. We can seal it with a bit if we need to."

"Vincent, you don't get it." She pauses trying to supress a scream, "I have to do this alone."

"No!" I shout angrily, "You always do this. You say you're fine when you're not. You say that you don't have anyone that loves you, but you do. You may not have Mary, but you have Bruce. You have the twins. You have Connor, Osiris, me. I'm a fox Alluro. You can trust me."

Stop this. You know not to yell at her.

I don't know what overcame me to yell at her like that. I was panting. Kneeling on both my knees. On the ground. Sitting on my legs. Palms facing the ceiling. Defeated. All I could see was a blurred sight in front of me and wet lines falling down my cheeks. I was crying. There is a weight. A weight across my left shoulders and a point resting on my right. A softer weight presses against my knees. My arms move automatically. Sliding around it and under her right arm that lays on the ground unable to reach the point in my shoulder. I hug it and cry. I let out all my tears gripping her for dear life. I didn't know what else to do. I didn't know how to get rid of her pain or mine. I feel her deep sobs against my body. I can feel every muscle shake as she sobs. I can feel her tears slide down her face and onto my shirt. I hold her. I hold her so tight. I don't want to let go of her. I can't. Once I do...I know...I know she'll never come back. She'll never be mine. She'll never be the same. She'll never be Alluro again. I need her. I need Alluro. I can't let her go. I can't.

Alluro. Everything's going to be okay. I promise.
