I'm Mr. Bully's Pumpkin

Chapter 8- Darkness

Chapter 8- Darkness
Melanie

Chemistry ended. After that came maths and history, but my cramps didn't end. It felt like I'm being stabbed repeatedly. Ugh, I hate this feeling!

Finally, lunch break. But I didn't feel like eating. Me, Emma and Nathan sat at our usual spot. Dylan also decided to join us. "Mel, why don't you eat something?" Em asked,

"I don't want to!" I said and groan in pain. I repeatedly banged my head on the table, clutching my stomach even harder as the pain got worse and worse. I felt like all eyes were on me right now. I was the center of attention.

"Mel, stop doing that, you're hurting yourself!" Nathan said,

"He's right pumpkin," Dylan agreed.

"Stop calling me THAT!" I scream and everyone on my table shut up. "I need to go to the washroom." I said and stood up, but suddenly, I started feeling dizzy, my eyes were slowly closing and the last thing I heard was "Melanie!" and...

Darkness.

I slowly open my eyes and squint, adjusting to the lights. I look around and take in my surroundings, realizing that I'm in a hospital. Next to my bed was a worried looking Dylan sitting on the chair, Nathan pacing the room, and Emma biting her nails, something she does when she's worried.

"Em," I choke out and everyone looks up at me.

"Oh my god Mel, finally you're awake!" She said, frantic with worry.

"You scared us Mel, I thought something really bad happened to you!" Nathan said.

Dylan just looked at me, concern and worry in his eyes.

"Why am I here?" I ask,

"It's because you fainted, and we brought you here only to find out you have high fever and you only made it worse by not eating anything." Em replied.

I never got sick when I'm on my periods, I thought.

I tried to sit up and Dylan immediately stood up, helping me sit up. Right now our face was too close, and all I could stare at was his eyes that showed worry.

I sat up straight and Dylan passed me a glass of water. I drank it and thanked him. The doctor entered, "how are you feeling Melanie?" She asks,

"A bit better I guess." I reply,

"Melanie you need to take good care of yourself, and need bed rest for at least two days, but we can only discharge after three days." She said,

"But why doctor? she needs bed rest for only two days. So why is she staying here for an extra day?" Dylan asked.

"We will check and run some tests to see if she's perfectly fine." She replied and left.

"So who's gonna stay here for three days until she's fine? Because I need to take care of Alex until Mel's back." Em said,

"And my mom has gone to London for a week, so I need to look after my brother." Nathan said,

"I'll stay here until she's fine." Dylan said, "I'll make sure she's fine and I'll get her back home safely after three days."

"Sure Dylan?" Em asked, "I mean I can stay here and you could look after Alex."

"No it's fine. I'll stay." He said,

"Alright then. We'll leave now, take care Mel." Nathan said and both him and Emma left.

"Dylan?" He looks at me, "why are you being so nice to me?" I ask,

He first looks shocked and then answers, "because I regret doing everything that I ever did to you. I realized how bad I was to you and now I wanna make it up to you by changing myself."

"You should've thought of that a long time ago, right?"

"Yeah," he agrees, "anyways, I'm sorry for everything I've ever done to you, I'm sincerely sorry."

I scoff, "sorry won't change my past and what I went through because of you."

He looks down at his knees, not saying a word.

I felt something come up my throat, I felt like, like...

Puking!

"Dylan!" He looks up, "I need a plastic bag, NOW!"

He stood up hurriedly, trying to find a plastic bag, "I'll be right back!" He said and went out.

Dylan

I ran around outside, desperate to find a plastic bag. After a long time of searching, I found one and ran straight back to her, only to find her surrounded by her own puke and fainted.

I threw the bag and ran towards her bed, I place my hand on her head, and it was heated, her fever just got worse. "Pumpkin, pumpkin wake up!" I said and shake her a bit.

I run outside and find a doctor, "doctor, please come in, my pump- I- I mean, my friend Melanie needs serious help, please come and check her."

"Who's the doctor in charge for her?" He asks,

"God damn it! I'm saying she needs serious help and you're saying who's in charge for her! Would you just do your fucking job and come check her?" I said, fuming with anger.

"Calm down sir, I'll come with you." He said.

I led the way and he entered, and when I was about to enter, he said, "sir I need you to stay out while I make some check ups." He said and I sat outside, waiting for the doctor to come out and give some news.

It was 6 pm now but still no news. I paced around and waited, and finally the doctor came,

"The patient..."
