Temper, Temper

Chapter 14

~Kyle

I gripped what used to be Alice's sweater tightly, tiny water droplets fled my eyes and took refuge on the old material. Her scent lingered in the air, making everything smell like like her. I rose my head a little, looking into the dark room, two months had passed by, and Liam still refuses to tell me the 'plan' wether it's existent or not still confused me. I've been trying quite desperately to get out to find her, searching the town. If I could, I would without a second thought but I've been on house-arrest. My twin was afraid I would brake out, try saving her once again, maybe he's paranoid that I'll jump off of a bridge, though the thought sounds appealing, I couldnt, not while Alice is suffering somewhere.

The one thing that hurts most is the fact that I can't even try. She's done so much for me, and I couldn't even try. Anger enveloped me, I clutched the fabric harder, hoping the raw emotions I felt could transfer themselves and bring her home. All I wanted was her.

I closed my eyes once again and shook the loose hair out of my face with a swift motion, I saw her everywhere, herd her, felt her. Images and memories swirled around my frail mind. I wished I could re-live every moment with her. I remembered when I first met her,

She sat down on my bed, she didn't seem to mind the blood. It struck me as odd. I sat across from her, flinching as she grabbed my wrist to examine it.

"Even with your scars your perfect" she whispered so quietly I barely heard.

I moved so I was beside her, and I held my angel, dropped down from heaven above. She saved my life.

"No" I whispered to myself, reminiscing at the memory. "I saved myself, she gave me a reason more to live, made me realize it wasn't time"

She was there for me, I owed it to her to be there for her, my brother couldn't stop me. not now.

I rose up on weak legs to leave my room for the first time in days. I stepped out into the hallway, wincing as the harsh light attacked my face, I groaned and raised my hand, giving my eyes shade. Liam's door was open slightly, I walked closer, about to ask him if he had a plan. Then I herd a deep voice, I strained to listen,

"Look. I need them here, you don't undersrand, she's very important." Liam said,

Silence enveloped the room.

"Of course I did" he groaned.

Again, silence.

"Your useless, I might as well get her myself."

A beep sounded from the room, terminating the call Liam was making. He sighed heavily and rested his head in his hands, I had to get her. I looked back to see no one, I finally had a chance. I took the stairs two at a time, my feet pounding heavily on the hard floor, I reached the bottom and crashed into the front door, I fiddled with the lock just long enough to see Liam, my reflection staring down at me with dissapoitment, I simply shrugged it off and bolted out of the door, leaving it open with the wind.

I forced my legs to go even faster then I thought possible I didn't stop. Blood pumped vigorously through my veins. My thighs burned from running endlessly, I stopped to take a breath, panting. I lifted my head up to see I was outside the police station that I entered weeks ago. I stared up at the white building, then walked in with my head down, bumping into the one man I needed most. Detective Blake. The anger I once had towards him flowed through me once again, my every thought was demanding action. I gave in.

I took his shirt collar and pushed him against the wall with one swift motion. I stared deep into his blank blue eyes, challenging them with mine. With him obviously knowing I wasn't Liam. He didn't even flinch.
