Chapter 19 - "I Know You're Lying,"

hope you enjoy the update I work hard coming up with ideas for each chapter, to keep suspense and a mystery in each chapter. please respect that post will not always be so frequent.

I woke up to Demi shaking my shoulders roughly and yelling my name she said "hey I've been trying to wake you for the past 15 minutes, you sure you're okay?," I shook my head and replied "yea, yea I'm sure I'm okay, trust me." She gave me a glare and scanned my face, I smiled to prove I was fine, she got up and said "you still need help or are you okay," I replied "I still need help," as I got up and my vision got worse.

I sat back down an closed my eyes as my head throbbed in pain, Demi's hand on my shoulder made me open my eyes again, I looked at what I made out to be her eyes and she said "Nick kneel down here next to me look at her eyes. I wanna test something relax and look in my eyes then Nicks then back at me, do it 3 times okay," I replied "okay," and looked from her eyes to what I thought was Nick's then back to Demi's. I did it three times and she said "you're vision is worse isn't it, you didn't look us in the eyes at first you had to search for them, if you could see clearer you wouldn't need to search for our eyes you'd just lock onto them and focus."

She took both my hands and I stood up, Nick said "Demi give me her backpack I'll carry her to the car, you take my bag," I guess Demi grabbed Nick's bag because I was lifted into his arms he said "your lighter then I thought," as I relaxed and leaned my head on Nick's chest. I closed my eyes and I felt his footsteps as he walked out of the airport and to the car, Demi put her hand on my shoulder and said "Nick's putting you down in the car," Nick said "I'm getting in another car. My manager already called another one to come pick us up I'll meet you at the hotel,"  Demi replied "okay, I'll meet you there,"and suddenly my head was resting on Demi's lap my legs curled so they were touching the back of the chair. 

Demi's hand resting on my head, the other still on my shoulder, she said "so the wound you got I checked I again while you were sleeping it's got a yellowish-orange sorta foam on it, what's that from?" I sighed and said "it's from the knife Derek threw at me in a last attempt to get me, it's a type of poison I think and I'm guessing it's making me temporarily blind, and it may or may not be making me unable to get up because when I lift my head it hurts like crazy. Demi seriously I can't move my head without a-lot of pain, it's like I've got a migraine accept I can barely see anything and I'm not sensitive to light."

Demi sighed and stroked my hair she said "so you think it will wear off eventually," I sighed an replied "I'm hoping so, if it doesn't wear off in a few days then take me to a hospital," Demi then questioned "Nick said you're still really light, how much do you weigh." I replied "70-80 lbs, depends on the day," Demi sighed "I knew you weren't eating enough," I replied "no, no it's just my stomach still hasn't gotten used to eating a normal amount of food. Trust me I'm not trying to starve myself, I eat till I'm full then I try not to show you what's left on my plate because I know how much my health means to you."

The car stopped infront of the hotel and Nick came out and said "go to your room, take her I'll get your bags and mine, she seems too sick to wait for us to get our bags," Demi got out f the car and gave Nick a hug. She leaned over and I sat up I put my hands on my head and breathed in she picked me up and I leaned on her shoulder, she whispered "how's your head?," I whispered back "why are we whispering?" She whispered "because I don't want to hurt your head more," I took my hands off my head and closed my eyes replying "I forgot to say whispering doesn't bother me either." 

Demi's probably rolling her eyes at me, a few minutes later she dropped me onto the bed and laughed as I freaked out because I fell a foot, Demi laughed as I threw a pillow at where I thought she was, then she stopped laughing and said "point to where I am." I sighed and pointed to another tall shadow that resembled a person and said "apparently there are a-lot of tall shadows that look like you." Demi said "Emily I'm on the other side of the room you pointed at the both sides of the window, at the curtains shadows."

I heard Demi walk a few steps and said "where am I now," I sat up and looked around despite my pain, I put a hand on my head and pointed to the figure standing in the doorway I heard Demi sigh. She said "that's Nick, I'm in the bathroom doorway, you can't tell the difference between the dark and a shadow, Emily sweetheart you're almost completely blind," I laid down and closed my eyes and said "then just make sure the room is bright. Keep the lights on until I'm asleep, I'm not blind yet Demi," someone sat down next to me making me jump, arms wrapped around me familiar, welcoming, Demi.

 I sighed and wrapped my arms around her she said "I'll give this at least 5 days. If you're not starting to get better by the 3rd or 4th then I'm taking you to a hospital," I replied you should wash my wound. Demi gave a small laugh and said "you are always trying to change the subject," I replied "yea, and you should wash my wound get some of whatever was on that knife out of it." Demi picked me up and carried me into the bathroom, my heads been hurting worse and worse, I'm good at hiding pain but one person can only take so much before it shows in everything they do. Demi cleaned my wound then put me back on the bed and covered me with the blanket I fell asleep while she was talking to Nick, She knows I lie about my pain and my eyes.
