Walking Through Hell With Ms. Brooks

Chapter six

Dakota's POV

It's been two months since my accident, my ribs are heald. My shoulder is alot better and my head is perfect again. Just have a nice scar on it. Since my accident I had my license taken, no car cause my was totaled. So now I walk everywhere. I'm starring at myself in the mirror of the salon, I'm actually cutting all my shaggy hair off. "I want it cut very close on the sides and back and semi long spikes for my bangs." The guy nods and starts cutting away. I felt normal today, I was wearing my same old black rip jeans, my white v-neck and my black and white vans. Everything between Miss Brooks and I have been okay, flirting back and forth. Some nights she stays at my house to check on me, but we haven't kissed since I was in the hospital. Her birthday is coming up in a few days and I'm going to get her something nice. Only problem is the same weekend as her birthday, my parents and I are invited to another doctors kids party. I don't want to go but my parents are making me. So I'll have to see Miss Brooks the next day. My stylist tapped me on the shoulder getting my attention. I looked up seeing my hair was done and I love it, he even styled it for me. I paid him and was on my way to the park. It's nice out today, starting to get chilly out. It is October so I can't wait for Halloween, and basketball again. I don't if I can play with my shoulder but I'm going to try anyway. Thankfully the park wasn't too far, I seen a few people I knew but I ducked away into my secret spot there. The lake. I love it here, so peaceful. I jumped when I felt a hand on my arm, turning to see my gorgeous English teacher beside me. How did she know about this place? She Smiled at me, God her smile still gets to me. " So how'd you knkw about this place?" She looked around at the scenery in front of us " Well my dad would bring me here as a kid till he got a hotshot job, then I started coming by myself. How'd you know about this place Miss Grey?" God she turns me on when she says my last name like that. "Well Miss Brooks, when I was little I was being bullied and got shoved into those bushes behind us and well, I found my hiding place." She put her hand on mine cause sparks to fly into my chest. " Dakota I never knew you was bullied." I looked at her and laughed "Not like I am now though." It was quiet between us but not the weird wanna run away kind. It was nice, but I wanted to talk to her. " So wanna play 20 questions again?" She looked at me funny "I don't know, last time that didn't go so well for us." She's right but I'm better now and want to know more about her. I squeezed her hand softly " I'll be okay this time, but you start." " I hate starting but fine. When's your birthday?" I grinned " May 10th. What do you like in a girl?" She thought for a moment " are you serious?" I looked at her proudly " yes I am, now answer." She took in a deep breath " fine, I love dykes, I love when their personality fits well with mine, isn't scared to be loving with me. Someone that trusts me with their secrets cause I will do the same, has to have short spiky hair cause it's adorable." This made me blush. " I want someone who will love me and care about me." I looked at her " Well that actually exactly what I want too." She put her head on my shoulder "Good kota." She pecked my cheek, I kissed her forehead " This is our spot now Jess." She looked up at me "That's the first time you called me that." I could see a huge smile across her beautiful face " Yeah well you called me Kota, so I just figured we were now on nickname bases." She giggled at me, oh my God her is so adorable. I heard something in the bushes, the wind isn't blowing. Then a click, I look around but don't see anyone. Am I hearing things now? Am I really going crazy? Then her phone ring, she sighed " I'm so sorry kota but I have to go, my little sister is coming to stay this week with me. She's at my apartment now." I giggled at her then kissed her lips softly, it was so passionate and full of love. She stood and left. I began my walk home as it started getting dark, no big deal I did it all the time now. I turned on my road realizing that the same car that's been behind me since I left the park, turned behind me. I don't get worried much but right now I'm scared to death. I already knew no one was at my house, so no help there. The only person I could think of going to is Jamie, she would be home. I started thinking about how to ditch the car but, I heard it start speeding towards me. I jump into the woods that's beside my house and started running towards Jamie's house through the woods. I could still hear the car, I ran faster coming to a street. I ran crossing the street seeing the car, I took an alley a bock away from Jamie's. I could hear a car about to turn just as I hopped into Jamie's backyard. I laid very still on the ground holding my breath, I seen the car pass very slowly. Who ever it was is looking for me, shit I'm so dead. Who the fuck is it? Why are they after the? They finally left, I snuck into Jamie's room. The window wide open as usual. I crawl over to her bed out of breath " Jamie?" She rolls over screaming throwing her arms around nailing me in the face, I could feel the blood pouring out of my nose. Bitch busted my damn nose. She jumped on me freaking out cause she hit me "Oh my God I'm so sorry kota, honestly I am!! Wait why are you in my room? And how!!" She was a bit over dramatic, I mean seriously. "Get off dammit I can't breath!" I don't know how we haven't woke up her parents yet, like they'd care I'm here but still. So I sat up and told her everything that's happened. Between Miss Brooks and I, our secret spot, me hearing the click, the car. Just everything. I cried hard while telling her, she just held me and told me it would all be okay. I wanted to believe her, but I knew it would be far from okay...
