The boy in the hallway

Honey that is my pencil...✏️

ISABELS POV:

The next couple of days at school were shit. I felt ill each day. And it was super weird because I went into the bathroom to pee. And somehow it hurt to pee. It was so awful because for some reason I was getting random blood throughout each day. It was like I was on some kind of blood spree. And I wasn't on my period. I've already had my time for the month. I don't know what's wrong with me! I should probably go to the doctor or something... there is definitely something wrong with me. 

*********

I stayed off school the next couple of days  because it was just too bad. I was getting constant blood and constant headaches. I was also constantly throwing up. And I don't even know why!! 

I have many missed calls from Tara. And by 'many' I mean about 39. I also have 54 from Aiden. Also about 86 texts. 

And I know what you're thinking...

"Why am I not telling the truth to my best friend and boyfriend??

Well let me answer for you.

"I really don't know." 

I haven't told anyone so far. I know I should but I just can't. 

I went to the bathroom to study myself.

I looked bigger. 

I wiped sweat off my forehead. "What the hell?"

Then I felt sick rising in my throat.  "Right then Isabel. Get ready for the third time today." 

**********

After emptying my stomach I heard a gasp from behind me. 

I whipped my head round so fast I heard my neck crack. I cried in pain and lay on the floor sobbing. Then I felt gentle arms wrap around my waist pulling me up. 

"Isabel what's wrong with you?" 

Wait I don't recognise that voice... I tilted my head upwards to see who was there.

Kayla.

The girl who helped me out when Cindy punched me. 

"K.ayla.. what are you doing here..?" I stutter.

"Well you've been off school for a while... and I know we are not friends or anything but I wanted to see if you were ok..." she fumbles with her dress hem.. and then looks up at me.. Isabel first of all what the heck is wrong with you.. I just saw you puke out a mixture of sick and blood. Like  Are you alright?" 

I look away.. Do I tell a girl I've only met once about what's happening to me? Or lie and say I'm fine...?

I made my descisoin

"I'm not fine. I don't know what's wrong with me. I keep pukeing out blood and sick. I keep bleeding and I feel crap." I finish and look at her. She genuinely looks concerned. 

She moves in towards me and gives me a huge hug. I hug her back and sob into her shoulder. 

"Before you say anything... I'm taking you to the doctor." She says.

Oh shit.

AIDEN'S POV:

I'm so worried about Isabel... She hasn't been in school for days. And I've texted and rang her many times.. and she never ignores my calls. We normally spend hours just talking on the phone about super random stuff. Something is definitely up... She only ever ignores me when she's mad at me... but I can't think of anything I've done wrong recently. I heard from Tara that she is ignoring her texts and calls too. But I think Tara is fine because she's having her fun with her new boyfriend George. I just miss her. And although it's only been about 5 days, for us she would have at least rang me by now. I've stopped by her house many times but her mum always tells me she's ill and doesn't want to see anyone. But to me that's pretty much bullshit. 

There's no way Isabel doesn't wanna see me. She always wants to see me. 

Something's definitely up.. 

After school ends I head over to Isabel's house. As I'm about to knock  on the door some random girl I've never seen before comes out of her house. She's cute.. 

STOP AIDEN you have a girlfriend who is way more beautiful. I make my way over to her. 

"Hey.. you don't know me but I'm Aiden the boyfriend of that girl's house you just walked out of.. first of all  how do you know her. And  Why did her mum let YOU in and.....also.. how is she by the way?" 

"Wow classy introduction. But honey I already know you. Dumbass Aiden Parker I go to your school. I'm Kayla.. I literally sit behind you in maths. I'm the girl who you always ask to borrow a pencil from...? Remember me noob?" She sighs and continues walking ahead.

"Does that ring a ring dang bell to you or not Parker?" She turns round and looks and me while Crosing her arms in frustration. 

Nope. Random girl I have no idea who you are.

"Ohh y-eahhh um Kayla...' I scratch the back of my head nervously. 

I have no clue who this girl is but imma just go with it because if she has information on Isabel I'll do anything at this point. 

"You have no idea who I am do you?" 

Dang it she's smart. 

"Nope" I say popping the p.

"Right..." she continued to walk onwards. I ran after her and grabbed her arm pulling her back. 

"What do you what boo?" She crosses her arms and raises her eyebrows at me.

"Right so imma just go straight to the point. Why has Isabel been off school for so long, and I know you know because I just saw you come out of her her house. Tell me now Karla." 

She sighs before speaking "1st of all my name is KAYLA not Karla. 2nd of all yes I do know why Isabel is off school but me being a loyal friend and not breaking her trust I'm not telling you. And 3... of course only Aiden Parker would forget the girl in maths who lends him all her pencils." She rolls her eyes and walks off.  

I'm desperate at this point. I grab a pencil from the inside of my pocket and run up to her. 

"Wait! I'll trade you this pencil for information on Isabel!" I extend the pencil to her hopefully..

She scoffs and takes the pencil "DUMBASS Aiden this IS MY pencil! I lent this to you yesterday in maths!" She throws her hands up in frustration and runs away before I can catch up to her. 

Dammit that stupid girl Kylie. Or is it Katie? Ugh I don't even remember. 

I just must find out why Isabel is avoiding me... 

and is she ok...?

Well I'll find out soon...

Heyyyy I tried to make this as long as possible....
