Not So Typical Playboy

Wild Strawberry

Chapter Ten

       † Wild Strawberry

† Reese's POV †

       I smiled at myself as I thought of Mira. I feel like such a girl telling

myself that I have feelings... So I'm just going to say it... I have feelings for

Mira Lauren Kress. Ugh, whenever I think about her I get this goofy smile

on my face. I can't believe all the things that she's been through. The next

time I see Calvin, I think that he isn't going to live the next day. I can

guarantee it. I plugged my headphones into my phone and I grabbed my

guitar. I put on one of my favorite songs Sorry by Buck Cherry. It is a very

long song but, its awesome. Its not the typical song that you'd think that I

like. But I can't help it. Although my favorite band is ACDC. I just like rock

music. I softly strummed cords to the song that I played at practically no

sound, because I needed to listen for Angel. I heard a quiet whimper and so

I quietly got up and brought my guitar to Angel's room. She reached her

arms out to me as I walked in. I came and sat on her bed and she cuddled

into my side. I slowly started to strum the song that Angel loves so much.

My mom would sing it to her, before she died.

I heard there was a secret cord

that David played and it pleased the lord,

but you don't really care for music do ya?

it goes like this, the fourth the fifth,

The minor fall, the major lift,

the baffled king composing hallelujah

hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, Hallelujah...

I heard her softly snoring next to me after I sang to her. I slowly strummed

the cords again and hummed the chorus over again. I smiled at Angel and

slowly got up and turned off the lights. I slowly walked into my room and I

grabbed my phone and laid down on my bed. I smiled at the thought of

Angel asleep in the room across from me. But there was always a thought

that scared me. That she would be taken away from me when someone

found out about her condition. When they find out about her fevers and her

sicknesses she gets. I decided to search why this happens on Google. I

typed in and the results scared me, her static fevers are mostly caused by

cell mutations. In other words, cancerous cells.

† Mira's POV †

     I woke up the next morning feeling giddy and nervous. Today I was

going to have a cross country meet, this is Reese's first meet. Although that

isn't what I'm worries about. I'm worried about seeing Michael and Calvin
