Wings

Chapter 8

I wake up from the best sleep I have had in years. As I look around I see that I'm still in Michael's room. My right shoulder and left leg are feeling better than last night. Maybe he's gained some experience from being here his whole life. My eye is caught by their clothes bathed in blood, and the way they're slouched over their chairs. It makes me laugh and smile knowing that they're ok with me being a friend. I sit up and my shoulder screams with pain, which brings me back to what happened yesterday. Which I am still confused about. Who in this city other that Michael, Matt and Dash know I go here. What if Skull Raiders followed me here? I wonder, but that's not important anymore. Right now the only important thing are the two gentlemen in front of me. I get off my bed I can see that I'm wearing white. Well I never thought that this color would look good on me. As I stand up I wince in pain towards my leg and fall down. Sweat is drooling all over my face from the pain.

I fall allowing a thud to fill the room. It made Matt fall from the chair he was sitting on and Michael just arouse steadily. I laughed at Matt but Michael's face was furious but worried at the same time.

I suggested to him saying innocently "What did I do?" He immediately replied to me projecting his voice to me saying, "Who allowed you to get out of bed. You're still not fully recovered and you need to rest. No matter what you can't get out of bed unless I say so."

"Ok. If you say so." He lifts me up and I can feel his body's warmth being transferred to me. My face starts to burn up and I snuggle up in him. He put me down in my bed and covered me with my blanket.

"Uh, Stella," He pointed out.

He puts his hands on his face trying to cover up the laughter saying "You're blushing. Your face is severely red." OH MY GOD! I'm blushing and he saw me. AHHHHHHH! This isn't good. I have to cover it up. As I flail my arms around he starts to laugh."What's wrong Michael?" I replied with a confused face. wrong Michael?" I replied with a confused face.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, that's funny." What in the hell. Is he ok. Did I traumatize him from my blood yesterday?

"Um, why are you laughing? I don't think it's a laughing matter." I asked him with the most confused face I could pull off.

"You look quite adorable trying to cover up your face from me." He gives me a smile which then makes me open up and allows me to laugh with him

After all that Matt finally wakes up with slobber off the side of his face. "Did I interrupt something, I think I'll go now." Nice. There is no end to his jokes.

"I think that I should go now I've caused you guys too much trouble." I say trying to get out of bed and change my clothes.

"I refuse with that you need your rest, and gain some power. I will not allow you to go!" He keeps on repeating this until I finally put my hand up stopping him from talking.

"I'll go with Matt and if he thinks that I'm not doing well then we'll come back. Although if I'm fine then I'll find a place to stay."

"But you'll get caught by the police. Your wanted poster is everywhere by now. There will be police looking everywhere for you." He follows up with more information about getting caught and I put my hand in his face again. Instead of stopping, he stumbled over his words.

"I know a park where they will never find me. It's ok I'm a runner and I am partially recovered. I'm perfectly fine." He then turns his head away from me, his face start to blush and says "Fine do whatever you want! I warned you!" Trying to be all mean to me .

"Um, you're blushing now." He starts to flail his arms everywhere trying to cover it up. Probably just like I did. He look so funny. So I did exactly what he did to me. I laughed and said "Its ok you look quite adorable trying to cover up your face."
