I dreaded the thought of explaining myself to my mother. She was accepting of my privacy but things like this is something I needed to tell her. She never wanted me to be one to be bullied.
I sighed wiping the cold sweat from my brow. I started shivering a bit becoming extremely cold.
Finally after what felt like hours a familiar voice echoed in the hall.
"Wasd? Are you okay?!" My mom's voice called to me. Without hesitation I stood up shakily and ran to her. Wrapping my arms around her I hung on as her hand began petting my hair. Stepping back she got a good look at me.
"Oh Wasd what, what happened to you?" She held my shoulders looking at my bruised cheek.
"I'm okay mom. You should thanks Oort. He saved me." I said turning around going over to Oort hugging him. My mom's eyes were wide and sparkling. She walked over to us hugging us both.
"I'm just glad you're both okay." She said kissing the top of my head.

The car ride was quiet driving down the road. As we arrived to our house. My mom walked ahead of us, as we walked I grabbed Oort's hand cheekily. Our finger intertwined I looked at him, as he smiled back at me he guided me into the house.
"You boys go clean up and I'll make something to eat for you, okay?" She went to the kitchen.
"Okay" we giggled running up together.
Sliding into the bathroom we shut the door a little louder than we expected. Tripping on one of the bathroom carpets I fall to the ground in a thud. Laying on the ground I laugh as Oort went down to lay next to me.
Smiling I turn my head to face him. He moves his head forward pecking my nose.
"Oort I was thinking about what would've happened to me if you where not there, and I-I—" I hiccuped swallowing a lump in my throat. " I was s-so scared, I-I thought you'd never come for me." I sniffled wiping tears from my eyes.
"Sshhhhh.. It's okay, you're okay." He hushed wrapping his arms around, pulling me towards him. The warmth provided from his hug calmed me my crying becoming less stifled.
It made me happy, the thought that I had Oort. I had him to comfort me in my harder times. Just sometimes wished that my mom had someone like that. I never knew who my dad was. Whenever I'd ask about him my mom would change the subject. I have to live with not knowing but that's okay. As long as my mom lets herself grow and she loves herself.
As long as she's happy and Oort is happy I'll be happy.
