MY GREY WORLD

Chapter 8

BRITTNEY POV

The invertible problem of drinking is a very horrible hangover and that is what I was experiencing right now. I don't know whether it's me feeling nauseous or the bright sun reflecting into the room that woke me up but I didn't have time to think as I rushed to the bathroom to vomit.

I didn't notice I had company until I came back to the room, when I saw the lady. I sighed. probably another fling. The girl stirred, that was when I saw her face clearly. EURELL.

I tried to convince myself that nothing happened but our clothes and undies littered on the floor and the little hickies all over me proved otherwise.

Oh shit.

Then something dawned on me, if Eurell wakes up to meet me, I will be damned. I packed my clothes and decided to leave but then I was worried, she missed curfew last night how will she get in. I left her a note and hurried out of my apartment.
Fortunately I didn't have personal belongings in the apartment.

I am hoping against hope she doesn't remember what happened.

EURELL POV

Uggh!! My head was aching as hell, I was about to go back to sleep when I noticed my surroundings. Fear rushed through me as I tried to remember how I got here.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Try to recall.

I sat on a bench in the bus terminal, saw Britt she took me to a building, we looked at stars and drank vodka?

What happened next?

That moment I also noticed I was naked under the comforter. Oh shit!! Simultaneously I remembered school. I HAD MISSED CURFEW!!.

Dammit, I am in a big mess today.

I gathered my clothes, put them on, my mind kept drifting to who brought me here and how I would get back to school without getting caught.
As I was about to leave I saw a piece of paper probably from the person who was with me.

Hi, sorry to leave this early without informing. I had to be somewhere and I didn't want to disturb you. You told me, you attend Brusetts high school. I figured it was pass your curfew so don't go through the front gate,go through the back through the woods. I will get someone to open the gate for you.

I sighed as I tucked the paper into my pocket. The woods?

I left the building immediately towards my school which according to GPS was 25 minutes away.

I finally found my way to the woods at the back of the school, by now it was almost noon. I threaded carefully as there were thorns everywhere, after getting lost a couple of time I saw the gate but to my surprise, the security officers were keeping guard here.

I hid at the back of a tree to think of a plan after sometime I came up with a plan not exactly a smart one but it's a plan alright.

I ran towards the other side  making as little noise as possible, I brought out my mini Bluetooth speaker, I placed it at the back of a tree, switched it on and ran back to my former spot then I connected my phone to the Bluetooth and played Dance monkey by tones and I and increased the volume to the peak, then I waited for them to take the bait.

Unfortunately only one guard proceeded to check it out.

One down, one to go.

I knew I couldn't waste anymore time, by now time was against me.

I tightened my bag straps and put my hoodie over my head. I ran as fast as my leg could carry me, the guard sighted me and ran after me but I was faster. I proceeded to the gate and tried to open it, it was locked. Dammit dammit. There is only one option left. I saw from the corner of my eyes that the guard was getting closer by the minute, I felt the adrenaline rush as I scaled the fence, I got through pretty well however I had a rough landing and ended up with a broken arm.

Because I scaled the fence I had a time advantage over the guard, I pulled off my hoodie leaving me on my Tshirt.

Adrenaline kinda has a way of numbing pain because not until the rush stopped had I noticed that not only was my arm broken I had a long sharp iron pierced through the sole of my canvas into my foot.

Today really isn't my day.

I limped to my room making it as unnoticeable as possible, the iron was still stuck, my arm was also limp and in pain and my headache had gotten worst by the hour.

I entered my room to find Brittney sitting on her bed with her worried face, I was confused as to why she was worried but she is the least of my problem.
I felt her eyes on me but ignored her as I limped towards my bed. I sat down, took off my canvas shoes revealing my bloody leg my then sparkling white canvas was now bloody red .

"What happened..."
I cut her off and shrugged, "don't worry, it isn't as bad as it looks"

It was true it wasn't as bad as it looks.....it was worse".

BRITTNEY POV

I've been sitting on my bed for the past two and half hours worried about Eurell well being.

Then she comes into the room in a very terrible condition I must say, I mentally beat myself up because I knew it was my fault.
I watched her limp towards her bed as she grabbed a first aid kit and a tissue. She sat back down and tried to pull the iron out of her foot, I felt so irritated and in pain as she dragged the iron out of her foot but she didn't feel irritated and that intrigued me.

I watched her apply some ointment and wrap the bandage, she also took a pill for hangover while she was dealing with her fractured arm when the voice of our hostel matron rebounded in the hallways.

"All students should stand in front of their respective rooms immediately".
I saw as she freezed and muttered some inaudible words.

She scurried around hiding the first aid kit and hoodie, then she pulled off her jeans which actually made me shocked that she was undressing right in my presence and pulled on a pair of joggers alongside socks, I could see she was breathing heavily and nervously as we stood in front of our room door.
