I just know..!

Chapter 5

I woke up earlier than usual,I was excited to go out after so many days.
Anna helped me get ready, I wore a light blue coloured top and a light pink short skirt, Anna chose a small chain with a heart shaped pendant from my mother's closet,I chose not to see myself in the mirror. I couldn't see my puffy face and blood shot red eyes.
Anna brushed my hair and left it loose over my shoulders.
Steve called and Anna helped me in holding it near my ear.
"Blaze..we are ready and waiting outside..come out whenever you are ready..!" Steve said as if he was in a hurry. I could hear someone shouting out his name..must be his sister.
"I..I'm ready.!" I said
"Great..come down.!" He said still sounding panicked and hung up.
Anna pushed the wheelchair down to the car, Steve ran to the passenger side and lifted me and put me into the seat beside him.
"Thanks "I said after Steve settled in the drivers seat.
"You are welcome..my sister went in to change her earrings so we have to wait.!" He said,paused for a minute and continued "I told her that they didn't go with the dress..I should have guessed that she will go and change..!" He replied and I chuckled.

"How long are you here for?" He asked.
"Till I get b..bet..better.!" I replied fidgeting and he smiled looking at the their main gate expecting his sister to come.
"Your sc..school.?"I asked raising up my eyebrows.
"I don't usually go..!"he stated and I chuckled again.
"You are beautiful.!"he said looking at my face. And I blushed.
"I'm also awesome.!"I said feeling happy knowing that I was coming back to normal.
"Hey ..you didn't stammer..?"he said excited like a child who was given a toffee.
"I us..usually d..don't!"I said stammering again. Wow..just wow.
"And we are back.!"he said smiling wide.

10 minutes later his sister ran into the car and closed the door with a huge smash.
"You must be Blaze!"she said. She looked pretty,she was the female version of Steve. She behaves exactly like sky's sister, I mean her make-up ,her clothes and all.
"I'm Stacey..you can call me Stace..!"she said passing her fingers through her hair.
"What took you so long Stace?" Steve asked and the engine roared into life and moving out.
"None of my earrings matched so I had to change my entire outfit.!" She said and both of us swayed our heads from side to side.
Stace ran into the store as soon as Steve parked the car.He shifted me into the wheelchair and took me to a food stall beside.
"She'll call before going into the trial room.!" He said giving me the menu card and I nodded.
"Choose.!" He said giving his order to the waiter.
"Chicken cheese sandwich and a cold coffee..!" I said hoping I don't end up puking in front of everyone.
The waiter left after taking the order and there was this weird silence amongst us.
"I don't remember you being this beautiful..!" He said and I blushed.
"I don't remember being called beautiful.!"I said sipping my coffee.
"Hard to believe..but thank god nobody else found you beautiful.!" He Said..wow..he is trying.
"But what if I found someone else beautiful.!" I smirked.
"I was trying..okay.!"he grinned.
"I knew" I said raising my eyebrows.
Just when he was about to say something,his phone rang. He got up from the chair pushed the wheelchair towards the shop in which Stace was shopping.
" my chicken cheese sandwich..!" I said looking at the table.
"Such a drama queen..!" He muttered.
"I heard that.!" I said and he smiled into the air. His smiles were so contagious.the way his eyes got smaller every time he smiled was kind off cute. Sky's smiles were different,he used to smile looking into others eyes,that impressive unforgettable ass.!
"Why did you choose only pink?" I heard Steve asking.
"Pink is such a cute colour.!" Stace replied. How..? How can you like pink..? I agree that I used have pink coloured bibs and pink tops and even selected pink as my room colour when I was younger but not now..pink.. Seriously..pink..!(no offence)
Stace was looking at me wide eyed. "She is right!" Steve exclaimed.
Wonderful..just wonderful..I've said all that out. I have to control my inner thoughts.
"Yeah..I think so.!" Stace said laughing.
"What I said that out too.?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Go change!" Steve said still laughing.
"Not funny.!" I said with fake anger.
"Well it is sweetheart.!"he said leaving me happy rather than shocked at the new nickname.
"I'm hungry.!" I blurted after 5 minutes.
"You just drank a litre of cold coffee.!"he said surprised.
"Please Steve please.!"I cringed in that wheelchair.
"What do you want,I'll go get.!" He said getting up restlessly.
"Chicken nuggets.!" Stace yelled from inside.
"Make that two.!" I said and he groaned.
"You people are supposed to diet.?" Steve muttered going out of the shop.
Stace ran out from the trail room hurriedly.
"Thank you so much Blaze" She said kneeling down in front of me and holding my hand.
"W..why.?" I stammered again.
"He usually doesn't mingle with anyone,doesn't talk to anyone,doesn't come out,he had a very rough past. All of a sudden he is talking a lot, he himself came up to me and asked me if I wanted to go shopping..he is changing and I observed that YOU are the reason..thanks.!!" She ended with tears in her eyes. I realised that She is not as stupid as she looks.
"T..then I m..must say we a..are h..hel..helping each other.!" I said slower than a snail suffering with a dreadful disease.
"And how's that?" She said raising up her finely shaped eyebrows.
"I d..don't sta..stamm..stammer on..only wh..when I t..talk to him, I'm wa..walking only wh..en he is he..lping..!"
I managed to say.
She smiled clasping her beautiful fingers with my pale fingers.
"What are you doing out here?" Steve said from behind me looking at Stace.
"Umm..I'm asking her to come to the New Year's Eve with us.!" She said as if she was satisfied with the answer she was giving.
"And I'm saying no.!" I asked making my eyes wide.
"Please..please..please.!" Stace jumped around. What was she even planning?
"It's fun for her..and you can save me from boredom.!" Steve said giving us food.
"How do you expect me to move around in this wheelchair.?" I said busily digging into my food.
"We have three days left.!" He said turning my head towards him.
Yes..you are right..I spent my Christmas puking and fainting.

I only remember Anna wishing me. Sometime when I woke up for my pills Brandon and my parents wished me. I dozed off again after taking my pills.those were such creepy days.
"Blaze..where to.?" Stace asked staring with a confused face. Steve was hogging my nuggets..my nuggets.
"Give them back.!" I asked as if he was stealing my property..actually it was more than property..it was food.
"Say yes and I will!" He said raising up my chicken nuggets and I frowned.
"Common sweetheart..you can't even do that for these crispy juicy chicken nuggets..!" He said wetting his lips..just like sky.
There were days when I ran around sky for my food.
Once we ran all the way from the lunch room to the parking lot. He dragged me into the car and we rode to a restaurant to which our mothers used to take us every weekend. He promised there that he would never forget me or leave me and see what he is doing now. Maybe,he is watching chick flicks with Miranda..that bitch.

"Yes..but I'll come only if I can walk by then.!" I said eyeing my chicken nuggets.
"That's the spirit..I'll help you.!" Stace shrieked,Steve gave me back my nuggets and I hogged like a beggar.

"We have to choose a dress for you" Stace said from the trail room,trying her 15th dress. The previous dresses weren't bad,she was a bit too particular about the colour or the pattern.
"I have many at home.!" I said in a tone which she couldn't hear. I was exhausted.
"She said that she has many at home.!" Steve yelled.
"I can't try anyways.!" I told Steve.
"As if you will if you can.!" Steve said which only earned him a slap on his shoulder. I made a mental note to look at least ok on the New Year's Eve.
"Do you want to go home.? You look kinda weak.!" He said checking my temperature with his hand on my forehead.
"No..I'm ok.!" I said wondering how he knew.
"Blaze..you can't even lie.!" He said. That's what sky used to tell me and he just can't be wrong about me.
