Echoes In The Field

Chapter 13

Jane followed with Guienivere, wide-eyed in surprise aswell. "Let me guess, John beat you?"

Kyle looked up at Jane while Guienivere stayed on his other side of the couch, hugging him gently.

"Yeah."

"Are you feeling better now though?" Guienivere said in worry as Kyle only nods.

"That fucking bitch...I should've beat his ass earlier." Jane said quietly, gritting her teeth and balling her fist.

"Jane don't! That isn't better those jocks will make you feel the worst decision you ever did.." Guienivere raised her voice but Jane was not in denial.

"I don't even care anymore, those bitches deserves a hard-ass punch-"

"Just leave it Jane, I even got my mom away to not call John's mom." Kyle interrupted Jane, making the two girls looked at him. He has a blank expression, mostly like he can't move his face.

"Anyways, why aren't you two in school?" Said Kyle in confusion.

"Well- I was supposed to announce you I was out of the hospital or like surprise you. But suddenly I saw Guienivere running and I found out those John's minions was trying to get her. We hid and decided thinking we should find you in your house." Jane explained, placing her hand on her hip and shifting her weight to her left leg.

"I-i was being chased because when also finding you after 2nd period then I accidentally bumped into John and tried to black me out, I manage to dodge the attack and ran away which set his minions to catch me.." Guienivere shivered from her story and stood still. Kyle listened to both of them and sighed.

"Be careful around him next time, he's no play no more after what I did to him." Kyle said plainly but sounding protective.

"So Kyle... you're going to school tomorrow..?" Jane asked after the fight he had gotten.

He looked away for a moment and turn his head to Jane again. "No."

Jane was expecting more from his answer but nodded.

"Jane, we should go back to school.." Guienivere broke their conversation. Jane looked at her.

"It's not safe no more Guie, let's just hang out at Kyle's for now." Suddenly a sound of squealing can be heard behind them. It was Ms. Schimidts.

"Eeek! That's a good decision! I don't mind you two sweethearts stay long until 7 otherwise both of your mother calls." Ms. Schimidts exclaimed happily, Making Jane chuckle from her reaction.

"I don't mind staying aswell, just don't tell mama I skipped school." Jane said quietly. Ms. Schimidts smiled and nodded.

"Mine too!" Guienivere said as Ms. Schimidts did a funny move of zipping her mouth.

The two girl laughed.

It was dark and quiet. The only light I could find in this pure darkness was fire. A small light of fire. It then suddenly starts getting stronger, and I get closer. I feel myself getting burned inside it. No one is supposed to save me, it's only me and myself.

"Liking the problem you we're put on?" Said from an anonymous devil.

My mouth seems like it was glued shut, my tongue trying to make it open it up. I was being suffocated, inside, and alive.

"Are you having a tough time?" He laughed until my ears bleed.

My skin was starting to melt, like a stick of wax with fire on a top of it's head. Getting tortured for hours. The fire roars Infront, beside and behind me. Heat was hitting into my skin like small little blades.

"You let me go." I echoed, my voice cracked and raspy.

"Why would I do that?" He said to my pride.

"You're hurting yourself." I start to sweat really bad, my voice echoing with screams of my loved ones.

"Am I?" He wicked. A toothy, sharped grin shining below me watching me suffer from his art.

"You're ruining not only a half but a whole." I said blankly, furrowing my eyebrows while the fire eats me more and more closer.

"You're blaming me?" He said with a scoff as he rolls his eyes.

"I'm definitely blaming you." I look down, my knees bruising and skin swelling. I open my mouth to let out what it can makes me want to say forever.

"I'm blaming you to stop controlling me."

He gasped and sat up to his tub, breathing heavily and gripping onto the sides. He gulped and stared down at the clear water, feeling the weight in his chest after it was almost filled with water. He leaned on the wall and sighed, closing his eyes to relax.

"You want freedom? Because of a guy?"

"I made a friend."

"Isn't that cute? Seems like you're 5 again."

"I never made a friend after millions of years."

"You don't count me one?"

"..."

Galio opens his eyes and stands up from his tub, wrapping the towel to his waist and get his hoodie and pants.

Do I like him? Or is it a stupid feeling? I never have that feeling with normal people I meet. Why was he different than everyone else?

Galio wears his pants and puts on his hoodie.

What do I find in him? He was feisty and protective ever since I got here. Did he got a problem with me?

He then gets a pair of his signature shoes.

Does he feel the same way? Did he know who I am?

Or he just....likes me aswell?

Maybe ...
