My Name is Haley (soul eater fanfic)

Chapter 5

"I guess." I say

"Ok, Liz, Patty. Is it possible that you could go?"

"K!" Patty said, and Liz and her left.

"Now, take off those bandages."

"They won't heal." I say, looking at the ground.

"How so?"

"I've had some of these sense I was six."

"Oh....but we still need to clean them," He looked at me. "Now, take the bandages off."

"I just want to warn you......."

"About?"

"No one should see these cuts...they'll..scar you."

"I don't care." I sigh and begin to unwrap the bandages on my arms. They revealed long deep cuts. The longest one ran from my wrist to my elbow. The deepest one cut an inch and a half into my skin. Kid stared at my arm in horror.

I looked at him, concerned. He looked at me then back to my arm. I continued to unwrap them. I had almost reached my elbow when Kid clenched his fist.

"Stop." He said, looking down. I stop unwrapping my arm, and looked at him.

"Wh-what...?"

"Stop. Stop unwrapping your bandages, Haley."

"I-"

"Stop!" He yelled.

"S-sorry...." I begin to rewrap my arms with the bandages Kid brought me.

"Thank you." Kid sighed in relief. I finished wrapping my arm, and stood up.

"H-Haley?" I looked the ground, just standing there for a minute. Then, I ran out of the mansion. I couldn't take it any longer. I knew I shouldn't have shown him!

"Haley!" Kid stood up.

I continued to run. I didn't want to talk. I just wanted to hide. I just wanted to hide from everyone, anyone who could ever talk to me. Anyone who could ever find me. I just wanted to hide.

I ran straight to the only place I found fit. I ran straight for an alley. My alley. I cried as I ran. I wiped my tears on my sleeve as I ran.

I heard Kid chasing after me. I don't want to talk to him. I cried a bit more. Why did I have to deal with this!? I can't! I don't know how!

I ran in my alley. I hid behind a pile of bags full of flour, that someone abandoned a long time ago. As I sat I went into a coughing fit, still crying.

The crying and coughing made me severely light headed. I covered my mouth as I coughed. Am I going to pass out? If I did, would someone find me? As I asked myself that question I heard Kid run up behind me.

"Haley!!! Are you ok!?" I continue to cough, unable to speak.

"Haley!?"
