THE ADVENTURE BAY HIGH SCHOOL (ON HIATUS - SLOW UPDATES )

27. 𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐒

The evening sun cast long shadows on the ground. The slanting rays of setting sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky.

Zuma and skye reached outside Skye's home. They still couldn't believe what happened before.

"Skye, are you sure that you're okay?" Zuma asked for the 8th time.

"Yes zuma. I'm perfectly fine.bye I'll see u tomorrow." She assured him and walked inside.

Skye's POV

Reaching inside, i was hardly able to make my way up. I felt like my whole body was breaking into pieces because of the pain in my chest. I took the support of the couches to make my way to my room. But suddenly i fell to the floor clenching my chest and began to cry in pain.

"Mo-m... D-dad...." I cried shuttering. Mom and dad came running out from the kitchen.

"OMG.. Skye!" Mom cried as she sat beside and pulled me towards her.

"Honey. We need to take her to the hospital." Dad suggested. I tried to protest but the pain was so severe that i can't even say a word.

Soon my eyes felt heavy and darkness took over me.

********************************************

I opened my eyes and a bright light was reflected directly into my eyes. I blink and rubbed my eyes. I'm in a hospital.

"Oh sweety, are you alright?" Mom asked concerned.

I nodded my head giving her a weak smile. Marshall came out of nowhere are hugged me tightly.

"I was so worried sis." He said before pulling back from the hug.

"I'm fine marsh. What's the time now?" I asked him.

"It's already 3 in the morning." He said.

"Dr. Erica said that you need to do some tests later." My mom said and I nodded in agreement.

"Hello" Two doctors entered the room. One of them was Jake?!

"Hey" my voice came out of whisper. "Ma'am you need to come with us." Dr. Erica said to my mom. Together they exited their room.

"So skye, how're you feeling?" Jake asked me.

"I'm feeling good". I smiled weakly. "So your friends know about the situation?" He asked.

"No." Marshall replied. " she don't want them to know."

"Jake, please don't tell them. Especially chase and everest. They'll be worried." I pleaded to him.

"They're your friends. They've the right to know."

"They do. But i want them happy always. Not sad thinking about me. So please don't tell them."

"Okay. If that's what you want." He sighed.

The next day at school.

Everest's POV

Spanish is bearable ad so is history with Rubble there. We have fun talking. Even though we should be working.

English is boring. We have read these horrible poems. I like some poetry. But most of it isn't for me.

I sat down on the cafeteria as it was lunch break.

"You've been quiet today.." Rubble said observing me. I shrug.

"Not to mention, chase too" tracker, rex and rocky joined.

"It's tuesday." Chase stated. " Last tuesday you weren't like this. " Ella said probably mentioned zuma because he has been quiet today too.

"Well school hasn't started last weeks." I argued.

"Its because Marshall and skye are absent today. Isn't it? Rex asked us.

"NO" we said in unison. "But what's ur problem zuma?" Rubble asked him.

"Nothing ". He stood up from the table and walked out."There's  something wrong with him." Tuck concluded.

I shrugged again.

"Isn't it suspicious that marshall went home in hurry yesterday." Tracker asked.

"What's suspicious in that?" I asked him.

"I feel something odd. I mean yesterday out of no where he was acting serious, then a call came. He was literally freaking out. Today both Marshall and skye are absent."

"I don't think there's something like that." Tuck said.

"I've ringed both. But they're switched off. Something is definitely wrong." Ella concluded.

"So why don't we visit them?" Rubble suggested.

"That's a great idea"

"Then it's settled ".

Chase's POV

Practice was very long. Being quarterback is more tough. I'm not throwing very well today, Skye's absence us really bothering me.

But why?

These things are all new to me. I'm kinda feeling different.

"Practice over" coach yelled.

After freshening up, zuma tracker, rex, tuck and me met ella and everest at the gates.

"So everybody ready?"

"Ready as I'll ever be "
