Don't Forget(Chrissy Costanza)

Chapter 6

*KATE'S POV*
I opened my eyes. Where am I? My sight was blurry and my head hurts badly. I tried to move my left arm, nothing but an intense pain that ran through my arm up to my head where my headache got worse. I closed my eyes for a second, hoping fot the pain to ease a little. When I opened them after a minute, or maybe two and Tergel was literally over me.
"You are awake! Yay!" She yelled, then poked my cheek looking straight to my eyes.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"Hospital dude! Don't you remember what happened?!" Asked Tergel.
"No..."
"Well... Ask that shit next to you when she wakes up." Tergel motioned me to move my head to look to the bed next to mine.
My heart went faster when I realized who was the one next to me.
I mean under all the bandages and bruises I couldn't help but recognize her beautiful face.
The Queen was laying next to me.
I stared at her intensely, trying to find an explanation for her wounds. Maybe I'm beat up too! That'd explain the pain in my head and arm... What the fuck happened?!
"She is now sleeping but she did wake up before you haha. The first thing she did was to ask for you! How funny is that?!" Commented Tergel.
I couldn't answer. She is beautiful... More than amyone I have ever seen before. Her small nose, her marked jawline, her wavy hair... She is beautiful and I can't believe people think otherwise.
"I'll leave you two... She should wake up soon. Bye." Tergel turned around and closed the door.
I started feeling my heart race as I realized something...

I like her.
One fucking lot.

"Hey... You're awake..." Said the beautiful girl next to me as she opened her eyes.
There was something different in her look... There was something in them... Her stare was full with care... Like if she cares.
I couldn't speak. I now know that I like her... And I also know that she does not.
"How are you feeling?" She asked.
I lower my head.
Why does she suddenly care?
"Why are we here?" I ask stuttering.
"You can't remember?" She asked back.
I didn't answer.
"Hey... Taylor... Why won't you say a thing?" Asked the girl next to me.
I couldn't open my mouth.
She got up from her bed, but she flinched a little so I knew she is also in pain. She managed to get up and walk slowly to my bed, a distance that in a good health state would've taken no longer than 5 seconds, yet she took 5 or more minutes. And I didn't care for how long she took. She got up and walked under intense pain just to get to me.
When she arrived her eyes turned straight to mine, her look was softer than ever before, but even more curious. Why does she suddenly look at me nicely?!
"May I sit down next to you?" She asked pontig to the space made on the bed where no part of my body is laying on.
"Okay..." I said.
She took a seat and she breathed slowly.
"Well, first things first... Please talk to me... How are you feeling?" She stared at me.
I couldn't answer.
"Don't be scared... Please... I won't hurt you again... Talk to me..." She begged as I saw tears got together in her eyes.
Wait. Why is she crying?! Because I'm not speaking?!
"Why are you like this?" I asked gaining some confidence.
"How?"
"Nice and emotional... With me. Don't you remember that you're the Queen?"
"Most probably not anymore... And if that's true... What stops me from being myself?"
"You are not nice!" I yelled causing her to get scared.
We fell silent. She looked at me for a second. Then something I never hoped to see happened right before me.
The Queen lowered her head and a tear mark appeared on the sheet.
I made the Queen cry.
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?!
"I swear Taylor, I am not how you think I am... You know more of me than most of my so called friends. You know that, do you?"
Also did Gaby. And she is dead.
"Why are we here?"
"Well..."

*CHRISSY'S POV*
(25 hours earlier)
"You shouldn't be doing this..." Commented Daniel while we cleaned up the music hall.
We had decided to end the rehearsal before the usual ending hour because we all have 'important shit to do', so while we cleaned up I told Dan about my plan with Taylor and the group of no-ones.
"I don't see why not..."
"Because you've hurt her enough! That's why." Yelled Dan.
I jumped back. Dan is not someone who shows anger, much less yell at someone...
"For fuck's sake! Chrissy, you like her. It's fucking obvious you do! Stop fucking things up with her!"
I got scared at the thought of it. Do I like her? Can't tell. Have I fucked up? Yes.
But I'm the Queen... Why am I suddenly caring? Maybe I do have small feelings for her.
"So?"
"You should be holding hands with her and having deep loving moments! NOT tearing the smallest apart! Christina, you have managed to show her a part of you... You went to see Luke with her next to your fat ass! Even you recognize that you have a unique connection with her. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!"
I didn't answer... He knows the truth.
"It's all because your stupid image. Right?" He asked.
Again, he knows the answer.
"Why do you love your image more than Taylor? More than Gaby? More than anyone?" He asked.
"That's not important."
"It is important enough for you to consider it the FIRST fucking option. Grow up woman! Your image is not that important. You are fucking up the girl who you like just because you can't seem to get over it."
"Get over the fact that my preferences are MY fucking choice." I spoke before walking out on him.
When I arrived home... My mom was there sitting at the dining table having her tea with another woman who I don't know, but that looked kinda familiar.
"Ah Chris! Come here. I met this woman at the store today and turns out she is very nice and fun so I invited her over." My mom explained.
"Sure." I replied simply.
Okay. This was the typical presenting game. Fake smile. Never say much about yourself.
Name.
Age.
A casual hobby.
Ask something useless to the one near you.
Then smile and leave.
"You are my daughter's age!" Commented the woman.
"Oh really? What's her name? Maybe they know each other from school." Mom asked.
So now I'm trapped here until this topic is over. Fucking perfect.
"She is a senior now. Katerine Taylor. Does it sound any familiar to you hun?" Answered the woman, throwing all the attention to me.
My mind stopped. Katerine Taylor... Taylor... K. Taylor... FUCK!
I'm with the mother of the girl of my dreams. I didn't say that. Taylor is Taylor and I'm the Queen. But she is also the girl who has been sending me loving messages, the girl who knows my secret but cares for me enough to keep it secret, the girl who makes me cry at night. The girl who can make me smile with only one letter.
"I think I know her... She seems nice"
She is nice.
"Yes... She has changed though. You should've met her before junior year... She always smiled and she even sung during her day... She was always so bright. Have you noticed something at school?" She asked me.
I immediately thought "I'm that something." But I can't say that, I can't admit I broke her daughter.
Because after all that's what I did, but I can't risk my mother's image of me.
"I don't know her that much... But I'll keep an eye on her." I said.
"Thank you... I sure hope she gets better no..."
"I'll make sure she does." I said before I left to my room.
Katerine Taylor... Why are you like this?
"Are you ready?" Asked Leon when I managed to get out of my house.
"Sure. Are you sure they'll come?" I asked.
"At least the five we care of will come... I swear."
"Better it be that way." I said a little too rudely.
We walked to Holly's place in silence. We didn't want amy attention. When we arrived, there were ten people waiting for us. This is bad.
There was a knock on the door and we all froze in our place. My skin turned cold as an idea of who might be outside struck me.
Taylor. And the others.
What have I done?
"Go to the back... I'll guide them." Said Holly as she walked to the front door.
I got pushed by my friends and the team to the last room of the house. But as we went back there I couldn't help but think about Taylor.
"Welcome! Please go to the back!" Spoke Holly as she opened the door.
I must stop this.
"Chrissy... Why are you obsessed with her?" Asked my cousin.
"I am not."
"I thinks I know what this is about."
"What?" I asked pissed off.
"Welcome!" Yelled Leon.
"To your last night..." Continued Kyle, a dude from the team.
"Ever. Grab them!" Finished Cris.
The dudes from the team jumped on them and made them fall to the ground.
I only saw the scene with an evil smirk... But crying inside.
I saw a smal dark haired girl fall to the ground and hugged her knees in hopes to cover her body from the kicks the people around her started throwing at her.
During a second she lifted her head and our eyes met. 'Why?' She whispered... And I could read her lips in the middle of the screams and terror.
"STOP!" I yelled from the top of my lungs.
A powerful silence took over the room, all eyes turned to me... I felt nervous.
"What?" Asked Leon.
"Leave them alone." I ordered and looked for her eyes to support me.
"The fuck is wrong with you?!" Asked Holly jumping towards me.
"They haven't done anything. Let them be."
"Oh so it's about that..." Concluded Cris.
"Get a life Cristopher!" I yelled.
"Or what?" He challenged.
"Just stop this shit."
"Why?" Asked Leon.
"Because they are good people." I answered.
"Take the blow for them if you think they shouldn't then!" Said Kyle from behind me right before he pushed me to the floor.
The team started kicking the life out of me.
While they hit me, I felt a hand reach mine. It was a small set of fingers that made my heart beat so fast that I stopped thinking of the pain in my body.
A tear fell from my eye.
"I am sorry. K." I whispered.
The world went dark.
I woke up on a hospital bed... Everything hurt... I could only open one eye... And it felt heavy.
"Chrissy... How are you feeling?" Asked my mom as she sat on my bed.
"Where's Taylor?" I asked feeling for the first time real terror.
"The girl who brought you here?" Asked mom.
"Katerine Taylor. Where is she?!" I asked again.
"I guess she is next to you..." Murmured my mom.
I turned my head not giving a living shit for the pain it caused me.
She was there.
"She is beautiful." Commented mom. "No wonder you like her."
"I only want her to be happy..."
"I bet you are the one who can."
"I don't know... I've done enough."
"Love her..."
"I already do mom."
"Get some rest... You must get better." Offered my mom.
I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

*KATE'S POV*
(Present time)"
I was in shock. The Queen. Giving up her place at school... For me. My heart warmed up as I grabbed her hand.
"What changed in you... To start doing this for me?" I asked looking into her eyes.
"I don't know... I just feel I want to know you... Like... Every part of you." She stuttered.
"How so?"
"I want to know you. Be able to say hello to you at school. I want to hang out with you and be able to text you until our fingers hurt. I want to be someone in your life other than the girl who bullied you. I want to make it up for all the times I made you cry. I don't care what you think about me... Just know that I apparently chose you over my image... And I don't know if that will be positive at all."
"I guess everyone deserves a second chance..." I agreed.
"Thank you." She spoke.
"It's okay... Thank you for helping me." I smiled.
She smiled too.
I stared at her face. Her eyes were sparkling, just like when we first talked nicely under the tree... She is beautiful. Her mouth looks so... Perfect.
I impulsively leaned in, slowly, I don't want her to notice if she doesn't feel the same.
Sparks and fireworks were dancing on my skin. Why am I thinking like this?!
Maybe she feels the same.
I hope she does.
"Fuck it!" Said Chrissy. She closed her eyes and leaned in, very quickly.
Our lips met. It was just a split second but I felt everything. Like if nothing mattered.
I was about to keep on daydreaming about my future with her... With those lips... With that voice...
But she parted.
"I'm sorry." She said before getting up and walk quickly to her bed.
"I liked it." I whispered, praying that she heard me.
"I did too... But I don't know if I'm worthy of your affection..." She murmured as she turned on her for bed, her back now facing me.
"Meet me... Maybe you can be surprised what 'worth your attention' in my world." I said with a little more confidence.
"Thank you." She whispered.
