Slipped my Mind

Chapter 2: Blushing

Chapter 2 ~

I found myself in a painful darkness... I then reliezed that I was sleeping... in an uncormfortable bed. Most likely the infurmary. I decided to keep my eyes shut because my head was still spinning. But I heard people speaking... I reconigzed Travis's voice.

"Dude... why are you still here with her?" A deep voice spoke... I didn't recongize.

"I told you before... I don't know. As soon as I collided with her... I can't get her out of my head. I feel like I need to protect her and need  her." This time it was Travis.

"What ever you say dude... Do you think she's the one?" The deep voice spoke again.

The was a long silence, "Yeah... I think she is. I'm gonna make her mine." Travis spoke. Make who his? Me? They couldn't be talking about me... Just then I heard about 7 other people walk in and my bed was hit which opened my eyes.

"Ug..." I rubbed my eyes.

"Hey look the football fan girl is awake!" A voice spoke sarcasticly.

"Riley, how are you feeling?" Travis asked softly.

"I've been way better! My head is killing me!" I opened my eyes more... I was stunned to see almost the entire football team around my bed. "Um... why are you all here?" I asked shyly.

"Just ignore them... I'll go get the nurse so you can get some Advil." Travis replied again and got up and walked past the curtain.

"Your at every game we have, right?" One guy with blonde shaggy hair asked.

"Um..." I shyly looked away.

"Don't deny it! We see you cheering us on!" The deep voiced guy said loudly. I shuttered in pain from the loud noise.

"Come on boys, keep it down." The nurse said walking in past the boys with Travis following behind.

"I love watching you guys play... I'm sorry." I responded sadly.

"Don't be sorry, we almost always win with you there. We appreciate it!" The blonde guy spoke with a smile.

The nurse proceed to give me some advil to take away some head pain, but shoo'd the guys out except Travis, which I was happy about. For some reason, I feel like I need him. I never noticed him before until we collided... but I really think I need to depend on him. But I don't want his reputation to go down because of me. I don't fit in... I would hurt his image.

"Thanks for everything Travis." I smiled at him, once the nurse left.

"No problem..." Travis looked away like he was worried.

"Whats wrong?" I asked him... he had me worried now.

"I just... I want to hang out with you. Like, I want to spend a lot of time together. I want to be with you..." Travis blushed.

I laughed, "I do too," He looked at me with a smile. "But... I would hurt your image, I'm not accepted in the school..." I was kinda sad now.

"I don't care what people think. They don't know anything about me. But I want you to know me... I want to know about you. I want ..." He blushed and looked away.

"Want what?" I tilted my head wondering what was going on in his head.

"I... um... I want... you." Travis blushed, got up and hide behind the curtain. I was shocked... because in my head I was thinking the same... I got up slowly from the bed being careful not to fall over. I pulled the curtain open and saw Travis blushing hitting himself with his fist. I quickly grabbed his fist and looked him in the eyes.

"I want you too..." I blushed as well.

He stroked my hair out of my eye and wrapped his arm around my neck and pulled me into a hug with his other arm wrapped around my waist. I wrapped both of my arms around his neck and rested my head on his shoulder. He smelt so good. Listening to his heart beat was like music to my ears.

** woah! Writing this is so much fun! it kinda makes me sad but still I wish something like this really happened! :D**
