WILL POV-
---- 2:34 PM ----
Will's eyes flutter open; sunlight peaked from the blinds noticing a figure ahead of him as he picked himself up sitting straight immediately shocking the girl next to him. Her face white as though she had seen a ghost with crumpled tissues in her lap.
Will squinted, blinking to adjust to the lights of his environment recognising this girl to be his step-sister El. He opened his mouth to ask a question but remembering the event that transpired to put him in this position; he didn't know what to start with.
"Will!" El sat on the chair beside him "You were asleep for so long! I was worried" She sniffled pulling the boy in into a deep hug, holding him tighter with every second.
"Did you get hurt?" Pulling off the duvet to see only a small band-aid on his leg and arm, she turned him around continuously scanning his body for any scrapes or bruises. El slowly turned his head, pushing his hair away to observe his scalp and the reflex of his eyes.
"I'm fine El!" Will chuckled grabbing both her arms
"You were trying to protect me from Troy and James, right?" She questioned placing a hand on his shoulder "This all happened because of me" She retreated herself burying her head in her hands wailing "Please forgive me Will!" through tears
"El it's not your fault!" He lifted his head enveloping the crying girl into an embrace. "You're my sister and it's my job to protect you!" he held her for a while until her breathing calmed. She felt guilty for getting bullied and it broke Will's heart; she didn't deserve any of this.
"I'm glad Mike was able to get you here!" El sniffled
"Mike helped?" Will lifted his eyebrows surprised
"Yeah! As soon as you fell; he didn't waste a moment and carried you here" she wiped her red eyes, her expression changing as her lips curled upwards.
"He did?" Will mumbled under his breath. At first, he thought that the ravenette hated him and that's why he was surveying him so closely today. It made no sense as he racked his thoughts. El smiled bright as Will heard commotion from the other side of the white curtain separating them from the other beds. He furrowed his brows, seeing the silhouettes of multiple people through it. El got up unveiling the people behind.
"Why is the entire cast of the Brady Bunch at the foot of my bed?" Will joked crossing his arms scanning the faces of the four people. Dustin had his hands full with plastic bags while Lucas held a book in his hands but his eyes went directly to Mike; The tallest of the group. His eyes averted away from the smaller boy looking at the floor.
"Umm its glad to know your awake!" Max muttered, never really having a positive perspective of the brunette but seeing him protect El made her slightly change her mind
"Oh thanks" Will smiled
"Umm here's the work you missed!" Lucas bashfully stuttered passing a notebook over
"I missed a lesson?" Will looked down at his watch "Holy shit" He pouted
"Don't worry! I made notes for you!" Lucas chirped
"You never write me notes! I've begged you for years" Max's eyes widened turning to face the athletic boy
"Thats because you sleep during the lesson" Lucas raised an eyebrow
