Four - A Soulmate Story

Overwhelmed and Skipping School

I felt Skyve back away and start to walk off as my sight slowly regained its strength from my delusions. I rocked backward as I felt someone dash to support me and shook me hesitantly.

"She's completely overwhelmed, should've known that during that kiss." I felt a man's hands get placed onto my shoulders as another squatted down slightly in front of me. From pure knowledge of the two, Xander was trying to get me onto Skyve's back so I could be chauffeured around the school's hallways. Among the group, different variations of chatter took place but my focus landed on Sky and Xander's conversation. "I'm gonna ask if I can move to you guys PE session, she might need a bit of help some days, plus I'd feel more comfortable that way." Listening to the minor sounds I heard two fists clash together, presumably the pairs.

"Urgh.." My eyes flickered open and shut as I struggled immensely to keep them open for more than a second. My hands moved slightly as I stretched out my fingers, yawning into the back of Skyve's neck. I buried my head in his hair to block out all of the fluorescent lights adorning the roof. "Someone's a bit grumpy and tired I think." Xander mumbled and chuckled along with Sky. "Mmmm.." I removed my face from the hairy jumble and replaced it down on his back. He continued to hold me up with his big, muscle prone arms which I secretly adored.

Through the mist of ongoing conversations,  I heard a snigger slip out from Skyve's mouth as he prepared to speak. "Oh well, I guess she's really tired so I guess we'll wait till another night." My heart basically shattered as I strategically placed my arms so they connected at his front and forcefully swung myself round into his already open arms.  As much as I tried and tried again, I could not even attempt at getting my eyes open. "Guess that woke someone up." I yawned in agony once again, wishing I could just relax ready for that night, but alas I could not.  "I'd just call her in sick at this point man, she's really not feeling her best."  I nodded my head meekly as Skyve committed to a complete 180 degree turn to exit the premises.

A sorrowful sigh echoed from his voice. Melancholy hit us like a truck. "You're right. There's no way she's going to be able to finish today. Tell the teachers where we are until I get a chance to inform them myself." Xander and him parted ways as I hung from his neck, fighting to stay present. "I'm sorry.." My soft, weary voice bounced off his chest into his earlobe. "You have nothing to be sorry for, I overloaded you too much. I understand where I went wrong." I tried to carefully pull myself up to meet his lips but miserably failed.

"I- It wasn't.. it wasn't your fault. I could tell as soon as we walked in, so I wanted to take advantage of the mostly sane time I had for these upcoming hours." He planted a warm kiss on my forehead as it sprouted a seed in my brain. In no time we were back at the mansion, me draping almost lifeless in his arms. I was placed on his silky soft bed sheets contained in his chamber once again as I heard him beginning to strip out of his school attire.
