He remembers. What do I do? He stares at me waiting for my reply. Do I play dumb? Do I tell him the truth? No! Well obviously he knows. But what if he knows something else and not what happened. He would think I was a complete lunatic if I lied to him.
I go with option one.
"What are you talking about Ashton?" I said innocently as I heard my voice shake slightly. Did he notice? By the blank look on his face he did."Layla" he said as if scolding a child as he shook his head back and forth disappointedly. If possible he took a step closer than before. I felt my breath hitch. He raised his arms blocking me in between him and the wall. I started to panick. My eyes flicked from the window to the door back to his face. My thoughts were everywhere.
If he knew then why doesn't everyelse at school know. What if he doesn't really know? Does he think I'm mentally insane?
He needs to back up. I can't breath! A claustrophobic feeling starts to bubble inside me.
"Hey, hey. Layla whats wrong" Ashton says in a whisper grabbing my chin.
"Your burning up" he shakes his head as if he doesn't understand. My arms feel like noodles as I try to push him away, not wanting him to see me in this state.I feel a ringing in my ears. I look up to see Ashton and... Ashton.... Hey I didn't know Ashton had a twin. I reach my hand out only for my hand to go right through him and then he vanished. My eyelids grow heavy as I feel myself sliding down the wall onto the cold hard tile. I hear someone screaming . But it seems so far away. I can't make out the words being said as water rushes into my lungs and I close my eyes waiting for darkness to take me. I didn't have wait long.
..........................
Its dark. I'm cold. I'm hungry.
Whats going on?
"Ashton" I call out into the darkness.
The only repy was the sound waves echoing Ashton over and over like a broken record.I take a hesitant step into the darkness fearing the worst. After nothing pops out at me, I walk aimlessly around the darkness trying to find someone or something. Suddenly I hear a beeping sound. I look everywhere looking for the source of the sound.
A warm feeling builds up slowly and then it becomes hot. I embrace the feeling with all my being.
" Layla?" I hear someone question from the darkness.
"Hello?" My voice echoes. No one replys back.
"Wait don't leave! Where are you!" I yell into the darkness. Nobody answered. I waited for the being to come back. I sat crawled up on the ground for hours. No one ever came. It was just me. Alone.
