Ted at Top! What do you think happens to Angelina? Read to find out! BTW, I have a new story I might start writing, its a spin off on Xavier's little sister. Check it out! It's called 'Fight Like a Girl'

Song for the Chapter: White Horse-Taylor Swift


I was fainting.

A sense of deja vu came over me.

My head ached and I felt warm liquid ooze on my scalp. It hurt like hell but I couldn't scream. I heard noises everywhere. One was extremely panicked. It was all spinning before my eyes. Someone lifted the bookshelf up. The earthquake stopped.

Someone was calling my name.

It was all blurry and dizzy and I couldn't recognize the voice.

Giving up on staying awake, I closed my eyes.

👦Jacob's POV:👦

The ground shook.

The bookshelf fell. It crashed onto the table crushing Angelina under it. I screamed for bloody murder. The shaking stopped and I lifted up the bookshelf not caring if others were watching.

"Angelina! Don't close your eyes! Please!" I yelled sobs racking my body. Everyone was standing there stunned. 

"He's crying for her."

"Jacob never cries."

I screamed when she closed her eyes and her body becoming limper and lighter than usual. Ted shook her shoulders frantically.

"Wake up! Angie!" He yelled also crying. No one saw Ted cry either. He was a jock, he was known as the prankster. Me? As a bad boy I'm not supposed to have feelings.

"CALL AN AMBULANCE!" I yelled at the teacher who was nodding frantically. I tried stopping the blood from flowing on Angelina's face but it didn't work. It just kept flowing and flowing. I sobbed once more and cried into her hair.

Wake up. You have to wake up.

*Flashback:*

I'm thirteen. 

Mom brought me to her office and I've been waiting for two hours already. I've been playing Pokemon on my Nintendo. I think she wanted me to meet this girl.

Girl's have herpes.

My younger brother who is about two years old learned the word from me. He would point at mom and yell 'herpes' in public and mom would glare at me every time.

Hey, it's funny.

"Oh honey! She's here!" My mom said slapping my Nintendo onto the floor. I looked at it longingly. Oh well.

A girl my age walked in. She looked pretty, blue-ish grey-ish eyes, her wavy brown hair touching her waist. She wore a floral print tank and white shorts.

That was my definition of pretty.

She raised an eyebrow at me.

"Jacob? Why are you here? Mom! Who's the cute boy you were talking about?!" She asked smirking at my direction. The insult didn't hurt much so I stuck my tongue out at her. Her older brother Conner just smirked. He was probably 15 or so. 

"Now now, behave. Jacob is a handsome young lad don't you think?" Mrs.London said gesturing at me.

"Yeah, behave!" I mouthed. She looked at me with a defeated look. 

Ha, I win.

My mom smiled at us.

"Ah, thirteen and already acting like a married couple. How sweet!" 

The parents looked at us as if we were something out of a museum exhibit. Both of us squirmed and looked at each other disgustedly.

Then, the ground shook, the big mirror fell, the glass splattered everywhere, it hit Angelina on the head and killing my mom and my Nintendo.

*Back to Present Day:*

I looked at the hospital bed panting. The ambulance couldn't make it so I carried her all the way to the hospitable. The nurses told me to put her in the room with Dr. Welch. Welch was a weird name.

I never hated Angelina for not dying with my mom. That would be selfish.

She had the right to live.

Just lost her memory.

That was why she didn't know me.

After I found out her mom died a year later, I didn't feel even. I felt even worse. 

It got real bad when I found out Conner was in a permanent coma.

Now that she's unconscious, I feel guilty even. I wanted to be her knight in shining armor. 

I watched her lips quiver and her eyelids shoot open.

"Jacob?"
