Poppy Seed Muffins

Chapter 4

"I'm your what!?" I screeched. "Well, uh... pretty much my girlfriend..." Adrien replies. "But... how!?" I question, still shocked. "Hey! Just be happy I didn't kiss you when I first saw you a couple of days ago, geez" he defends in an offended tone. "What do you mean by almost?" I say, only just realising what he actually said. "Umm" he squirms a little at the question, "well, uhhm y'see...". "Spit it out woman!" I yell. "Alright, alright. It was two months ago and we were, um... sitting on the couch in my house when my mother comes running in from the kitchen an-" the door to my room opens, cutting him off. "Jordan, I uhh.. got you some toa-" Wanda's eyes land on Adrien, then the rope and then the window. She drops the plate of toast she was holding. "Girl! You better have a good explanation this!" Wanda says in her mum voice. Adrien gives me a worried look, glancing from me to the window. Suddenly he grabs my bandaged hands and pulls me off the bed and towards the window. "Adrien!?" I yell, but it's too late, he's already pulling me out the window and sliding down the rope with me under his arm, my white hospital pj pants shining in the morning sun. We reach the bottom of the rope and I can hear Wanda yelling at us from the window. Adrien slings me onto his back and before I can protest, he begins to run. Sorry did I say run? I meant SPRINT AS IF YOUR ASS WAS ON FIRE WHILE BEING CHASED BY A TOUR BUS FULL OF EBOLA RIDDLED WEREWOLVES!!! Because that's how fast he was sprinting right now!

My chest started to pool with pain and my arms and face started burning up Adrien was currently running across the cow pastures towards the thin line of trees where he has originally come from, but he ran straight through them in the other side I see another paddock but this one was vacant. He keeps running, piggy backing me further and further away from my room and my medicines, towards who knows where. Suddenly he slows down and turns a sharp corner into a thick line of trees. He gently places my pale bare feet onto the leafy floor and turns to face me, starting into my eyes intently. "What the hell is wrong with you!?" I yell. He looks surprised. "Damn, my girl still got bite!" He exclaims. My face burns red, "since when was I your girl!?" I shout turning away from him. He just laughs and starts to walk along the line if trees, leaving me pouting where I stood. "Wait" I call looking up at his face, then slowly looking to my feet. "I can't walk properly and I have bare feet" I say. "What do you mean you can't walk properly?" Adrien enquires, looking at my legs. "Umm, Wanda said I was in a big accident and my left leg was crushed...usually I have crutches to move around my room and a wheel chair to move around the hospital..." my eyes start to tear up as I say it, I'm not sure why but I feel so embarrassed and ashamed. Adrien walks back over to me and wraps his arms around my shoulders, pulling me into a gentle hug. "Jordan..." he says sympathetically. "I'm sorry, I didn't think about that" he says, speaking into my hair. Our close proximity is making me extremely uncomfortable, making me squirm a little. He steps back and lifts my chin. "It's ok" I say giving him a weak smile. He lifts me up and carries me bridal style trough the trees, only to finally put me down in front of a little wooden house.

Suddenly I recognise it and my whole body goes into shock, my head spins and my stomach tightens, then my guts decide now would be the perfect time to empty themselves, drenching me in vomit.

.... "Jordan!"

I black out.
