Changed Blood

Chapter 8

I made it back from the park and went to my room. She can't be out of the hospital yet. But it's nice they let her have some fresh air. Usually they do that with old people in retirement homes. Weird.

I got to school and seriously, did not pay attention to anything. I was excited to see my baby today. I can't believe I was such a stubborn jackass. Hopefully she forgave me for that part of this.

I sat at the lunch table we always sat at. Me, her, and all of our friends. Well, all four of her friends. But I ended up sitting by myself, the other girls that sat with us wouldn't sit here because Orca was gone. I could imagine how orca felt being there by herself. I really should not be her boyfriend. I'm the worst.

Niras Pov:
Yes. I was standing in front of Nicks house, and I was going to sit here on the porch until he came. Regardless of how long it took, I would plant my butt here on the step and wait. Even I felt guilty for not seeing him. It was his fault he was being a dick, but, either way. It made my stomach sick.

Nicks Pov:
When the bell finally rang, I jumped out of my seat and got in the car. Speeding to the hospital. I pulled in a parking spot and ran up to the front doors. As I was walking in, I straightened my coat and jogged to the front desk.
"Hello." Said the Burnett nurse.
"Hi, I'm here to see Nira Harp." I said. Biting my nails.
"Alright, gimme one second." I can't wait a second. When I see her, I am going to kiss her so much. Hug her so tight and hold her hand until I have to leave. It was already 5. Was it too late? Was she sleeping? I had a feeling visitation was over.
"I don't have any records of Nira." She said. Was I taken off the list?
"She was here just a few days ago. They said she would be out tomorrow." I said.
"I don't see anything. I'm sorry sir."
"Shit." I said. She gave me a look and raised her eyebrows.
"Sorry." I walked out the door. Pissed at myself. Did she run away? They couldn't have let her out that early. This is insane. God what was wrong with me. Why was I like this? This is my fault she ran. I got in the car and started heading home. The ride home was about an hour. And it was already getting dark.

Niras Pov:
I drummed my fingers on the porch. Waiting. Watching. Eventually my mom called me and told me to come home. I sighed and got up getting in the car. Sitting for a few extra minutes just incase. I headed home. He's going to forget about me. Like when a guy gets a girl pregnant and leaves. I'm gonna be stuck by myself.

Nicks Pov:
I parked in the driveway and headed straight to my room. I slammed the door and just sat on my bed for a while. They must've noticed she was Gone. She couldn't escape. They wouldn't let her. My mind is going to the darker places. Where the bad things happen. And I need Orca now to help me forget.
