Chapter 7
Kalani POV
I sat infront of the TV in our dorm eating cereal. I grabbed the remote as I flipped through the channels. Nothing was on. I just needed something to idealize my mind. I ran my fingers over my lips slowly. I can still feel his lips against mine. I caught myself start to smile. I quickly stopped myself. I can't deal. It's like I'm going crazy and insane. It's been 5 days and I've tried my hardest to not think about him. I've been throwing myself more and more into section work in marching band for the game tomorrow. I've been over-studying so that I don't have to lay in bed and think. Not to mention, because of all of that I'm stress eating and I've stopped making an effort to run my usual 3 miles in the morning. I'm almost certain I've gained at least 2 pound in these past five days. Ashlee sat on her bed typing some research paper for her music theory class. "You know,
you can't hide from him forever. When will you tell me what was so bad that happened? It must have been bad. He's called me what seems like a millions of times in the past 5 days, asking if you were okay". I kept starring at the tv ignoring her. "Okay... That's it!" She said getting up, snatching the remote out of my hand. "Nobody died, you're not going through a break up, you didn't lose anyone or anything. This is getting ridiculous! It's non of my business what's going on but for you're sake you need to stop running from whatever happened and confront it. I hate to say this but stop feeling sorry for yourself." She said to me getting mad. She turned the tv off. "I'm here if you wanna stop ignoring me and physically talk about what's going on" she plopped back down on her bed and continued typing and clicking about. "He kissed me.." I said really quiet. She moved off of her bed once more and came and sat criss cross in front of me. "I'm confused..." She said slowly "I'm scared... It's been three years since I've felt affection for anyone. The last person I dated from middle school up through the first 2 years of high school died in a car accident." Ashlee got quiet as I turned to look away from her trying not to cry. "He was my first love. We were so young but he always treated me right and he was sweet." Ashlee grabbed my face. She turned me towards her "It was 3 years ago kal, don't you think that if he's an angle up in heaven he's looking over you? Maybe he would want you to move on and be happy. I know you've been through the most and I know you've been hurt but believe me when I say this, Brandon, he's crazy about you. He would never hurt you but he has some issues to. He's loved and he's lost just like you. You're both scared to love again because you're scared of losing and getting heartbroken. There is a lot on the line and a lot to risk but, wouldn't you want to go through all of that with him and deal with each other's hearts. Fix each other. " I looked at her. She kissed my forehead and got up. She walked to the bathroom and closed the door. I sat there in shock taking what she said into context.....

Kick off had just started and Amanda made sure everyone was in the right spot in the stadium. I pulled my gloves on my hands. As I pulled up my jacket sleeve I noticed I had giant glove tan lines from band camp. I chuckled to myself I grabbed my Mello and paid attention to Amanda up on the podium. She raised the stand tunes binder up. We played through some stand tunes until the last quarter. We were down 15 point and I looked down on the field noticing my favorite player was playing. They called a timeout and the players ran to the coach. They stood in a circle for a second than broke. Brandon got into formation ( haha 😂😂 I'm sorry) The player in the middle called the start of the play. Suddenly Brandon was down on the ground. The crowd got quiet. The band stood quiet. It seemed as though the whole world was quiet. "#2 Brandon Simmons down on the tackle." He didn't get up. People began to sit down. The team took a knee. I couldn't do this anymore. Before I knew it I put my Mello down and ran to the stairs. I felt my feet carry me down the bleachers. I reached the end of the bleachers over a wall. I ran around to the gate that lead onto the field. "Ma'am you can't...." I shoved security out of the way and ran past the football players onto the field. I ran across the field. The coach and the EMT's where down trying help Brandon. I ran to his side. "Ma'am you can't-" one of the EMT's said but got cut off "let her be..." the coach said. I got down on both my knees. I didn't care that thousands of people where watching me. I just wanted Brandon to be okay. "Brandon.." "Kalani.." He said faintly bearly whispering. I tore off his helmet.  Tears began to roll down my face. "I didn't mean what I said Saturday night. I wanna be with you. You mean everything to me. I know we've both had our hearts broken but I wanna be yours.  "I know you didn't" he smiled showing his teeth. I lightly laughed as I continued to cry. "I can't move my leg Kalani" he said. "It's gonna be okay honey" I said cupping his face. "I almost forgot.." I smiled "what?" I asked him. He reached his hand up to my face. "To tell you that you're so beautiful even when you cry" I cried even harder. He wiped my tears away from under my eyes. "It's okay baby, I'm okay. I just can't move my leg. It hurts but you talking to me is making it better. Come here" he said reaching out his arm. I moved closer as if to hug him but he grabbed my face and kissed me. I could feel the stadium roaring and people cheering. I looked up, our kiss was on the big screen. "Ma'am we gotta get on with the game. I gotta move him" one of the EMT's said "yeah" I faintly said sniffling. I got up as they put Brandon on a stretcher. I walked with them off of the field as Brandon held my hand. They opened the stadium gates to let us go through. We kept walking as they took Brandon's stretcher back behind the stadium and into the parking lot. They put his stretcher onto the ambulance. I sat in the ambulance with him. The ride to the hospital was pretty quiet. Brandon passed out because of exhaustion but he was still holding my hand
