Chapter 16: Taking A Risk

Chapter 16: Taking A Risk
-------------------------------------------------

Darks POV:

I stood in the kitchen, frozen, stunned by what had just happened. Slowly I raised my hand to my cheek where (Y/N) had slapped me a few moments ago. The stinging feeling of her slap still lingered, a vivid red mark was seen on my skin.

I have never experienced her like this before.

Part of me was concerned - worried about her mental state, feeling a sting in my chest. But the other part? I was furious.

How dare she treat me like this? Who did she think she was? I thought to myself.

Anger started to take over my shock before, without any hesitation, I stormed upstairs. My steps were heavy as I was about to confront her. No one is allowed to treat me like this - her included.

Once I reached her door, I knocked roughly "(Y/N)?! We need to talk!" My voice was filled with anger.

Silence.

I knocked again, this time even harder.

Still silence.

Frustration boiled over as I finally now tried to open the door to storm inside but something was.. blocking it? Furniture perhaps? But why barricade it and not simply lock it?

The mixture of curiosity and anger led me to simply teleport myself into her room but as soon as I was in there, I saw no one.

"What.." I muttered quietly to myself, I was very sure that I heard her slamming her bedroom door after she slapped me and stormed upstairs.

In confusion, I looked around before turning myself back to the door, finally now seeing what was blocking it.

It was (Y/N) laying on the ground.

In an instant, all my anger vanished but panic surged as I rushed to her side, dropping to my knees.
"(Y/N)? (Y/N), can you hear me?" My voice started to tremble, betraying the fear creeping into my chest.

She didn't react.

Just after I put some her out of her face, I noticed a bit of blood on my fingers. I carefully tilted her head to inspect it and noticed that she was bleeding.

"Fuck.." I quietly sweared under my breath.

I didn't know what to do, I never had an emergency like this before but after having watched Dr.Iplier train on a dummy a few times, I pressed two fingers to her wrist to check her pulse.

Relief washed over me when I found it - it was low but steady. She was alive.

I forced myself to calm down a little, debating on what to do before I decided that it would be the best to get her to the hospital.

I stood back up and leaned down to pick her up- lifting her up bridal style while holding her unconscious and limp body close to mine before I teleported.

Just a blink of an eye later, I found myself at the entrance of the nearest hospital with (Y/N) still in my arms.

The sterile smell of desinfectant and the bright lights hit me quickly after I got into the hospital and rushed over to the reception. My grey skin already turned into a normal human skin color again.

Before I even had the chance to say something, the receptionists eyes widened as she tried to stay professional. "What happened?" She asked, hurrying around the counter.

"I found her passed out." I said quickly "Her head is bleeding."

"Is she breathing?"

"Yes, but her pulse is weak."
