Esdeaths Lover

chapter eight

For some terrible reason i was terrified that she was going to die in my arms and a tightening in my chest added to my worry. The blood was seeping out of her faster and faster as every second went i didn't know what to do. The wardrobe! my eyes suddenly met with the wardrobe and i raced over there finding a dark piece of cloth and grabbing it, Turning it into a bandage i wrapped it around her waist she had a surprisingly tiny waist. The blood was still pouring through but at a manageable rate. I could still hear her groans as i pressed the cloth down. I ran back to the wardrobe finding a second piece of fabric and folded it into a neat square pressing tightly on her wound it was just below on of her ribs and she was lucky it hadn't shattered a rib or two. It was coincidentally too lucky as if someone wasn't aiming to kill but rather just wound her.

I knew somebody who used that tactic, but i couldn't possibly be right could i? The heart wrenching feeling that i felt when i remembered that someone from Night Raid was dead hit me so heavily that i fell to my knees but what if Esdeath was lying, surely she was?
A loud groan let out of Esdeaths mouth as her eyes fluttered open. She just stared at me in disbelief. Too be fair i was surprised that i had managed to stop the bleeding and help her with such little provisions that i had.
"thank you, i don't know how to repay you" her words were soft and meaningful, i could use this chance as a way to request my freedom whether it would work or not what was a mystery.
"i want my freedom, i want to return to my friends" she frowned at me.
"if that is what you want then yes i shall allow it but please i want you to stay with me" was she begging me to stay? a part of me wanted to stay and see how things carried on but a large portion of myself had to get away from her and hide away hoping i would never see her again.
Slowly getting up there we're still small droplets of blood that fell to the ground and she got to her feet. She walked over to the door and pulled out a rusted key. Opening the door she sighed and waved a hand at me. Yet once she did that everything went black i could hear everything going on around me but i couldn't see it felt like i was trapped in a box with no light getting through.
My body's impact with the floor completely woke up as i clenched my side it was in agony and felt like it was pulsing. I'd always gotten myself into terrible positions. I looked around and realised this was the same spot that Esdeath and I had initially met at. The bushes were still there and as soon as i saw that the coast was clear i dashed into the nearby bushes and ran as fast as i could not daring to look back. I was scared. I was scared that this was some part of a rude joke that she was going to be waiting for me laughing. My experience with Esdeath over the past few days was not a terrible however it wasn't amazing.
