Silence

Chapter Idk

I lay in my bedroom alone, starring at the ceiling. I had my headphones on, listening to Jacob Whiteside's "Focus." Now, you may be thinking 'Oh, deaf people can't listen to music!' And that's where you're wrong. We can't hear the words (obviously) but, we can feel the beats. It's very nice actually. Just then, I see something enter my room out of the corner of my eye. So, I tilt my head slightly and find...... Kolby?
I scramble to a sitting position on the farest corner of my bed, still with the headphones on. He closes the door behind him, and sits on the other side of the bed. At least he's not closer.
I start to tremble, as he just looks at me.
"You're gonna hurt your ears if you keep listening to that loud music!" He said. Luckily, I was good at reading lips before I became deaf. Wait. He doesn't know?
I then take off the headphones and set them aside.
"Kolby, I'm deaf." I slowly say. But I've got to say, I'm getting better at controlling my voice. Well, I can't tell, but you can tell by people's reaction. Kolby just looked into my eyes, his soft green eyes switching from one eye to the next as he stares at me. Then, he breaks the stare and laughs.
"You're funny!" He said, then looked at me again, and saw that I wasn't laughing. His smile deflated.
"You're serious?" He says, I reply with a nod and his eyebrows instantly drop.
"How can you hear me?" He was now exadurating his words.
"I can read lips, just talk normal and face me when you do." I say, he nods.
"So what do you want?" I ask, not caring to hurt his feelings.
"I want you, Max. I love you. We could go anywhere you want, you could choose where we live, I don't care. As long as your happy. You don't need anyone here, you hate your sister and barely like your parents. And that Emmett guy" Before he could continue, my head shot up at him. I love Emmett. I love Peyton. But as bad as it sounds, I don't like my parents. "He's gonna leave you anyway-" I stop him, by putting my hand up.
"How'd you know about that?!" I say, not caring about how loud I was. My face went to a scowl, when he didn't answer.
"I'm moving to Texas with him, actually. And, you were the one who left me in the first place!" I said, this time I wasn't controlling my voice at all. He opened his mouth to speak, but I got off my bed and headed towards the door. My only guess of who told him was my parents, I mean, they let him in. So why not tell him I'm moving to Texas?! Ugh.
Just as my hand touched the door knob, I felt two hands wrap around my waist. So, I lift me hand from the knob, and try to peel him off.
I turn around, hoping that could help, but his strength over powered mine. And he leaned in and kissed my dry lips. And for some reason, I accepted it, and stopped trying to push him away. My entire body seemed numb. But I know what he's doing.
Before he could continue his kiss, I push his chest as hard as I could, finally releasing myself from him. I take advantage of this opportunity, and run downstairs. Before I know it, I was outside. So, I hop on my penny board and just go. I didn't know where, I just went. After awhile, I looked behind me and saw Kolby, so I went faster. And before I knew it, I was on Emmett's street. I guess my brain knew where we were going, and just didn't tell me. I was now skating even faster. Emmett was sitting on his front porch, and when he saw me he stood up. Suddenly, and unwanted tear strolled down my cheek. And before I knew it, everything went black. My body was completely numb, but I soon figured out that I was on the ground. Just a few seconds later, someone turned me over. And then I realized I couldn't see anything because my eyes were closed. So I slowly open them, taking all of my available strength. I could feel sharp pains in my knees and arms.
Then I realized I couldn't see Emmett or Kolby. So, I turned my head slightly to see Emmett, trying to get to me but Kolby holding him back. Everything seemed as if it was in slow motion. Did Kolby want me to die?
Before I could tell what happened, Emmett came over to me and I was suddenly off the ground. But as I looked over Emmett's shoulder, I saw Kolby launching toward us. I tapped Emmett's chest, as I couldn't talk.
And suddenly, blackness again.
