My Illness

Part 16

Killian pov

I dropped Rosie off at the Hullbeck hospital and then went to school. I was a little bit early so I went to the student lounge where the football team and all of my friends were.

Kyle - "Hey Kil. Where were you? You usually come earlier than this"

Killian - "I had to drop my girlfriend off somewhere"

Jacob - "No way! Lucero finally got a girlfriend?! Who is it?!"

Addison - "Actually, he's dating Rosie"

Daniel - "The one from Pops a couple of weeks ago?"

Killian - "The one and only"

Addison - "Is she okay? She didn't come back home last night"

Killian - "Oh. Alice didn't tell you?"

Addison - "Tell me what?"

Killian - "Rosie moved into my trailer with me"

Anderson - "So she was telling the truth about the 'six times in seventy-two hours thing?"

Killian - (chuckles) "Yeah, she was"

Violet - "So you actually lost your virginity?!"

Killian - "Did you not believe me the first time?"

Violet - "No I did, but still"

Zack - "Woo! Way to go, Lucero!"

I laughed. I looked back at everyone and noticed Addison was acting weird.

Jacob - "Everything okay, Addie?"

Addison - "Um, Kil, do you know about... uh..."

Killian - (sighs) "She told me about it a couple of weeks ago"

Suddenly, Gwen walked into the room, still bitchy but not as much as usual.

Gwen - "Hey, bitches"

Cole - "Gwen Blossom, to what do we owe the pleasure?"

Gwen - "I need to speak privately with Killian"

Daniel - "And why the hell would you need to do that?"

Killian - "Daniel, relax. I'm fine"

I followed Gwen out of the students' lounge and into one of the empty classrooms.

Killian - "Everything okay, Gwen?"

Gwen - (sighs) "You know about everything, including Omar and Lacey"

Killian - "I won't tell anyone if that's what you're worried about"

Gwen - "Please. I don't want anyone else knowing about all of this"

Killian - "Okay. How are you doing?"

Gwen - "Uh, I'm fine. Why?"

I gave her a look and she sighed.

Gwen - "I just... I hate that she had to go through all that pain and I couldn't take it away"

Killian - "Gwen you can't change what happened. You can only decide what you do about it"

Gwen - "Anyways, I wanted to say thank you. I saw how much of a bad place Rosie was in before. You really helped her. You saved her"

Killian - "She was the one who saved me. In more ways than one"

She nodded.

Gwen - "Oh, a couple of weeks ago at my party, what was that phone call all about"

Killian - "Um, I'd rather not say yet. Maybe eventually, but not right now"
