My Mind Reading Bully Redux

Chapter 6

I woke up feeling sick the next day, it felt like my insides were twisting to the point where they'd break. I spent hours at the toilet, coughing up everything I had ingested. It felt like I was dying.

Levi had left for school earlier so he doesn't know, of course I don't care what he thinks. I'm still trying to figure out what is going on with him. He says he's not good with emotions and yet he claims he loves me. I don't buy it, you can say anything and make it sound believable but actions speak louder than words. And so far his actions say otherwise.

When it felt like my body was done, I flushed the toilet then went to brush my teeth. I gazed at my reflection "What the hell is happening to my life, Elly?"

After I washed out my mouth, I went upstairs to my room and fell asleep.

I woke up to stomach churning pain that felt worse than death itself. I ran to the bathroom but nothing came out, I just dry heaved until a hand gave me a glass of water. I gulped it down like it was the best fucking thing in the world.

"You weren't at school, did you stay home all day?" Levi asked while he stood over me.

I glared at him "What do you think?"

He struck his hand out and I put my hands up to guard my face but instead of punching me, his hand rested on my stomach. "Have you been eating properly?"

I started to put my arms down "I haven't eaten anything since this morning, I practically threw up everything."

He raised an eyebrow and picked me up bridal style, normally I would have fought back but I was too tired to do so. He carried me to my room and tucked me into my bed. "I'll make some soup. In the meantime, get some rest."

I was about to shout that I didn't need his help but I was asleep within moments of touching the pillow.

I opened my eyes to find myself in a white room, it smelled really really bad like decomposing bodies. I covered my nose and started to look for a door.

"What are you doing Enny?"
I froze and turned to see my older, twelve year old twin sister. She was wearing a red shirt underneath an open long sleeved jean jacket. She was wearing her bracelet with my name on it that we had made when we were five. She placed her left hand on the hip of her blue jeans.

I felt the tears bubble in my eyes "Elly..." I breathed and started walking toward her.

She sighed and lifted up her long dark chocolate brown bangs to smile at me with her golden eyes. "Don't be such a cry baby, Eren. You're my little brother and I'll make sure that nothing is scary for you."

I broke into a run and got down on my knees to hug her, I held her close. "Elly, elly I've missed you so much!" I cried into her.

Beep beep beep.

I turned and there she was, in the hospital bed hooked up to all those machines. She looked at me with those same smiling eyes even though it looked like she had a foot in the grave. "Don't be such a cry baby, Enny. I'll be fine." She started coughing and before I knew it I was at her side, holding her hand.

"Ereeeeen! Oh Ereeeeen!"

I was now on the floor in a hospital gown, I tried to crawl away but my leg was suddenly cut off. I screamed.

"Now now, Eren. Guinea pigs shouldn't scream. Let's see what this does." My father said while he stood over me and pried my lids open before he plunged a needle directly into my eye.

I woke up with a start and checked my face and body to see if my limbs were where they're supposed to be, after assuring myself that they were I tried to settle down my racing heart. I started to sing the song Elly used to sing for me when I had nightmares. "One two, the ocean is blue. Three four, hear it roar. Five six, touch it quick. Seven eight, don't stay up late." I clutched my chest while my heartbeat finally settled. I brought my knees up to my chest and rested my head on top of them.
