Run (TOTASC)

Ch.9 Makes Me Crazy...!

Blaise! Mary! Blaise! Mary! Blaise! Mary!

I hear over and over again. The voice is repeated in back of my head until I come back to reality and see some campers from the bus running our direction. About four of them. Some keep running but an older one stops and starts yelling at Blaise but surely referring to the both of us.

"Hey guys, what you doing out here. Get inside before you catch a cold." He says and tries skipping the puddle unsuccessfully. "A storm is soon to come and it's not safe to be out here with lightning."

He warns then leaves.

I suddenly look up and realize that it has been raining and that my clothes are damp. I look at Blaise staring at me. He looked down at the puddle where the petals were at. He looks back at me as his eyes soften for me and sighs running a hand through his wet hair. He walks towards me and wraps an arm around me.

"Let's go." He whispers as he pushes me lightly as we both walk towards.... my dorm?

Half way I'm feeling guilty. Guilty about everything. For judging him. For overthinking and making the wrong decisions. For using the wrong words in serious moments. For just being here.... with him.... and.... for being.... me.

"No Blaise. G-go to your dorm before the lightning starts." I breathe out knowing that I was going to get sick for the way I'm shivering and feeling my legs weak.

"I'll go back once I know you're safe inside your dorm, taking a nice hot steamy bath, or under soft warm cover, watching some funny videos about 'Cat Fails'" He says through a smile.

"B-but y-y-you...." At this point I couldn't walk. I had been barefoot and now my feet are frozen.

Blaise knowing everything, he picks me up bridal style and hugs me tightly trying to warm me up which wasn't working because of the buckets of rain being thrown at us. He speed walks towards me dorm as I am already frozen and unmovable. Of course I am alive but if I make a slight move, my bone will hurt and I'll whimper probably making Blaise think he had hurt me. All suddenly, I hear a door being knocked definitely by Blaise' foot. It is once opened and warmth hits me like a bus. Good!

"Oh my God! What happened to her?"

"Is she okay?"

"Let me help you!"

"Damn you guys are damped up."

All questions are asked across the room by the twins while Veronica is still nowhere to be found. Blaise swings another door open and kneels down still having me at least on his knees. I hear some water being turned on by I don't mind opening my eyes to know it was the shower. All suddenly I feel a pain inside my head. So strong that I didn't have the energy to whimper or cry. Every seemed so weird. My vision got blurry and all I heard was echo sounds. I was bloody numb.

"Okey Mary, the bath is ready." I barely hear him says pulling some towels onto the floor where he knelt. "Mary." He calls again. Echo.

He stops what he's doing and sits me on his knee so he as a good view of me. I knew someone was standing by the door for I saw a shadow. He started tapping my cheek but calling my name. I couldn't hear anymore. I only heard the hard breathing that could barely fly out of my mouth. All I could see through my blurry vision was a red head coming my way and kneeling next to Blaise. They started talking or much more arguing worriedly so I close my eyes. Last thing I heard, was the best thing.

"I'm won't let you go."

As I feel my body reacting and touching some rags around me, open my eyes and sudden pain threw them making me close my eyes and almost roll my eyes back. I shift a little to see if my body is also in pain too but I couldn't move. I squinted my eyes to try and see. No pain. I blinked a few times before looking around. I suddenly see a muscular body lying next to me. Arms wrapped around my hips and a heated breath hitting the upper right side of my stomach. Looking down to see who it is to only find a sleeping Blaise. He looks so cute though I can't see.I try sitting up but it just seems impossible so I just lay there.

I suddenly notice. He's here. In my dorm. In my bed. With me. Hugging me. Oh Lord! What if the girls saw me? What if Veronica saw me? Yes I care because she can go and tell stories that aren't true. Are they?

I close my eyes and think about the only reason I'm put in this place. Not camp but in this situation. I've known this guy about two days ago. How can you be such a whore Jane?

Yeah Jane. How can you?

To keep myself a little calm, I decide to touch his hair bit. I just pass my fingers thru it like a normal thing that people would do. As I feel his soft hair, suddenly his breathing becomes a bit heavy as he lets out a sigh. The he moves his arms to cup my hand and he intertwined our fingers together. A smile appears on my face as I giggle a little at his childish. All of a sudden he looks up at me lifting his head a little. His eyes were red and a tired. He smiles once he see's I'm smiling. I shift my head a little so some of my hair could fall on my face as I blush. I probably woke up so ugly, and now he's just laughing at it.

He hugs my legs tighter and buries his face in my stomach which makes me laugh. Him now knowing that I'm ticklish, he' kept doing it. He started blowing on my stomach making that weird sound that made when you blew on a kids belly. I started laughing. He than life head to look at me and placed his chin on my belly to look at me. He had a light smile, showing that he was happy.

"What are you looking at?" I ask shivering waiting for answer.

"You." He simply says.

"Uhh why?" I'm confused now.

He laughs. He moves his arms so now he is resting on his elbows. He smiles without showing his white teeth and look down blushing before looking back up and sighing.

"You're beautiful." He simply says like it's the most obvious thing ever.

Oh my! Did he just say.... ? Am I listening right? Heat fills up my cheeks as I look down and smile widely. I look down like the stupid insecure girl that I am and I look back up. My face frowns as I see his face kind of stunned. Like if he couldn't believe he won an award. He now notices my face and breathes out a laugh with barely half a smile.

"Y-y-ou're... y-y..."

"My what?" I ask worried that probably I looked dead pale or I had blood on my nose or something. But why would he be smiling then.

"MaryJane," He says then everything goes silent again. He then leans closer. "Can I tell you a secret?" He finally asks.

"Y-yeah, sure." I say now worried.

He leans more in and now we're inches apart. I could see the pupil from his eye growing and his lip trembling. Is he going to kiss me? I mean, I've never had a really tense moment like this one. I've had a boyfriend some years ago but it wasn't something like this. It was the opposite. This is slow, patient, adventurous, mysterious, surprising and.... love?

As he leans closer and closer, he finally is closer than what I expected. As I already feel his breath hitting my lips, he decides to mumble some words that quickly made my stomach go wild and my skin to get goose bumps. His words meant so much for I bet that now I will probably feel more appreciated. I will probably feel happiness for the rest of the day. I will probably feel valious. I will feel loved!

He whispered....

"You're smile makes me go crazy."
