Can We Be Fixed?

Chapter 4- I said please

I woke up feeling really dizzy, I looked around and realized I was still in the storeroom, I instantly jumped up. Shit I thought Simon is going to kill me

Not only did I miss class, I am late, I banged on the door of the storeroom and surprisingly I feel straight out 

"Fuck!" I squealed as I fell face first onto the tiles, I could still feel my ankle throbbing

I jumped up and ran well more like limped down the hallway with my bag jumping all over the place because of how I was "running"

I ran straight into a cleaner, who stared at me like I was a alien

"Excuse me what is the time"

"5:30 Miss, school ended 2 hours ago"

I was dead Simon was going to kill me, he was so pissed last time I came home at 4:20, because I was studying at the library and forgot to tell him.

I thanked the cleaner and limped out of the school, I was cursing in my head, I couldn't go to the office it was too late and I couldn't walk because I needed to be home now.

The painkillers had long worn off and I now couldn't walk a step without collapsing, and to make things worse it was pouring with rain.

I grabbed the umbrella from my bag and put it up but the stupid rain kept going sideward so know I was drenched in a matter of minutes.

I looked like a drowned rat and the limping made me look like a demented creature that had crawled out of the drains.

I decided to ditch my umbrella and chucked it in a bush, the wind was going to carry me and my umbrella away.

I sat on the pavement and cried, Simon was going to kill me and I couldn't walk home, I had at least 20 minutes left of walking at this pace, and I see the school all the way in the distance,

I had no energy to turn back or keep going, my ankle kept throbbing, I peeled back my soaking soak to see my ankle had doubled in size and was now a nasty yellow and purple looking color

I sat in the rain for at least 10 minutes bawling my eyes out, watching the cars zoom past me, no one paid attention to a small figure on the side of the footpath bundled in a little ball.

I took out my phone from my bag and tried to turn it on but it kept flickering on and off, the water was going to ruin my phone

I held it under my soaking bag and turned it on, luckily it worked, I dialed my moms number praying she would pick up

"Hello?" 

"Mom its me Talia"

"Talia? where the fuck are you, do you know how-"

I cut her off "Mom, I didn't mean to make you worried I am sorry but I am stuck on the side of the road, I hurt my ankle I can't walk, can you please pick me up"

"Talia, I am not worried I am hungry you were supposed to make dinner I am so disappointed in you, your lucky that Simon hasn't come home yet"

"Mom" I scream into the phone trying to speak louder than the rain that was pelting on me, 

"I am stuck in the rain, I can't walk home can you please pick me up, its the one thing I ask for, God why are you so selfish sometimes, and you can cook yourself dinner"

There was silence on the phone for a second before my mom answered "Fine, don't cook dinner then you selfish brat, also if your able to talk back and be a brat, you can walk home yourself, or better don't even bother coming home no one wants you here anyway"

Then she hung up

I started sobbing "No please mom, don't leave me please, don't hang up" but she was gone

There was only one other number I could call

"Hello?"

"Daniel, its me"

"Talia?, is that you where the hell have you been, me and Caleb have been so-"

I cut him of not wanting some else to say those words again "I know your hungry, but I can't cook dinner right now I am sorry, I can barely  walk, I am...I need...just... please Daniel just pick me up" I sob

"Talia, forget about the food, where the hell have you been do you know how worried I have been"

"Daniel is that Talia" I hear Caleb say in the background

"Where the fuck have you been Lia, do you how much I-" He trailed off realizing something

There is silence on both sides of the phone call when we both realize he just gave me a nickname

"Uhm, Sorry I was supposed to say Talia"

I ignore him, "Daniel, I am near the school, I'm next to the road on the path, I hurt my ankle I can't walk it is so swollen"

I hear him swear there is movement and then a noise that sounds like the jingling of keys?

"Talia get away from the road okay, if you get hit by a car -" he trails off

"I don't think I could ever forgive myself " I hear him mutter it was really soft but I heard it

I look down and see my phone flashing "Shit, Daniel my phone is about to die"

I immediately start to panic "NO, no, NO, Daniel I can't, please its too dark without my phone" My phone starts to flicker and my one source of light is almost gone.

I start sobbing even harder "Please no don't die please I can't be in the dark alone"

"Talia listen to me" Daniels says 

"I need you to calm down okay, please tell me what street your on, I am coming okay"

"I can't Daniel, I can't breathe" I can already feel myself going dizzy again, everything is spinning

"Talia, please I need you to calm down, breathe in and out"

But I can barely hear Daniel anymore, my head starts to spin and I am gasping for breath but I can't seem to get enough air

"Daniel Please" I beg

I feel myself slowly losing consciousness and everything goes dark for the second time today, but this time I don't fight it I just gave up.

I hear my phone clatter onto the pavement and, I can hear the distinct noise of someone saying a string of curses through my phone before I feel myself connect with the pavement.

"Talia?" 

"Are you there?"

"Hello?"

Heyyyyy hope you enjoyed this chapter

Okay so I will admit I just couldn't make Daniel rude this chapter I am thinking of slowly getting him and Caleb to because nicer to Talia

This chapter was actually kind of sweet minus the part of Talia having a panic attack and passing out of course

Also just incase there is confusion on that street she is on there is no street lights and it's almost pitch black but she is using her phone as light.

Also I am thinking of doing Daniels POV next !!!!

- Love you guys 💗
