Unlucky Me

Chapter 4

It's dark. Too dark. I don't like this. I can't move! I can't move any part of my body at all! I'm scared, someone please help me!!

After what had seemed like forever I woke up and immediately sat up breathing heavily. I couldn't calm down, I was too scared. I rubbed my eyes and sighed. I NEVER wanna have that feeling again. Where am I anyway? I look around and see a huge room but it's not mine. Behind me there was a bunch of anime merchandise and action figures while in front of me was another bed covered in clothes and drawing utensils. Ah, I'm in Jacob and Elisha's room. How did I get here? What happened? I got up and went downstairs to see the twins and Ashlynn.

"Adrien!" Elisha yelled pulling me in for a hug. "I'm glad you're ok." "What happened?" I asked as I tried to pull away from E's grip. Surprisingly he's very strong for a person who hates doing anything that has exercise involved. Must be from watching all that anime. "Well you should be glad that you weren't entirely in front of the car or it would've killed you. But only the back of you're leg was hit." His grip on my arms tightened and honestly it didn't hurt, seeing E worry about me hurts. My whole life I've made Elisha worry about me and I hate it. I've never really worried about him before, E was really good with hiding his emotions inside. So I can never tell if he's alright or not. Before I knew it I was crying. "Adrien what's wrong!? Does your leg hurt!? Here I'll help you go upstairs." He grabbed my legs and carried me Bridal style which made me blush if I had to admit. Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! You have a boyfriend, Parker remember! Forget about Elisha! I look up watching E bring to his room and laid me onto his bed. So much for forgetting about him. "E?" "Yea?" I couldn't help but stare at him, he was just so adorable. I immediately looked away and hid under his covers. "Did you need something Adrien or not?" He chuckled and sat on his bed. "No nothing! I just called you by accident!" God what the fuck is going on? "Ok then. Sleep well. I'll call you when dinners ready, k?" He said taking the covers off of me and rubbed my head. "Sorry for making you worry E. I didn't mean to." "No it's fine! I'm just glad you're ok!" He gave me one of those huge smiles that I loved oh so much. But something was off. Way off.

I sat up and grabbed E by the arms making him face me. "Elisha how are you really feeling?" "What?" "What emotions are you hiding from me?" We both sat there for about three minutes and yet he didn't say a thing. "E please don't play dumb with me. Are you doing ok? Is something bothering you that you wanna talk about?" He grabbed my hands and put them on my lap. "What's with all these questions all of a sudden? I told you I'm fine. I'm not hiding anything from you." "Jesus, Elisha you're a horrible lair u'know?" His eyes widened and he looked hurt, like really hurt. He also looked very offended. He looked down and sighed while chuckling. "Wow. Unbelievable." he got up and walked towards the door and left. Not saying another word.

What the heck was that? I ask him a couple questions and he acts like I did something wrong? Wow, what a great friend.

2 hours or so has passed and the only people I've seen were E's sisters and Asher, another one of E's brothers. Asher is also very smart for a 11 year old. He's skipped 6th and 7th grade, so he's gonna be in high school with us soon. It's so weird thinking a 11 year old is gonna be in high school. "Adrien?" Asher asked opening the door. "Yea?" "It's time for dinner." "Wait I thought E was gonna tell me." "Well he said he didn't wanna do it so I did. You need help going downstairs?" I shook my head and he understood leaving the door wide open for me. Then began to clean up his sisters toys and Barbie dolls off the stairs. What a great kid.

As I got downstairs everyone was at the table while Juno, E's mom, was giving out dinner. As I was about to sit next to Elisha he whispered something to Jacob and then they switched seats. Damn I must've pissed him off. "What did you do?" Jacob whispered loudly but not loud enough for E to here. "I didn't do anything! I just asked him if he was really alright then he got all pissed at me!" I just shrugged, "What am I supposed to do!?" "I dunno apologize?" "Hell no! I'm not apologizing for something so stupid!" "Well it's either that or have E not talk to you for at least 4 months based on how mad he is now." I sighed and sat back and slid down the chair. "And when things are getting more and more complicated..." I murmured and began to eat dinner.

"Here" Jacob said throwing a spare blanket and pillow at me. "You can sleep in my bed tonight, I'll sleep with E." "No, I can't do that. This is your room and I'm not gonna take that from you. I'm sleeping on the floor." He rolled his eyes, picked me and dropped me onto his bed. "Goodnight Adrien." He just doesn't give up doesn't he? I shook my head and tried to go to sleep but I couldn't. The thought of my best friend not talking to me haunted me. I guess apologizing isn't such a bad idea. "Um, goodnight Elisha." He looked at me and faced the other way not saying another word.

E you're my best friend and I'll never say this to your face but seriously-

You're such a ass.
