Never Take That Second Chance (Uberhaxornova/Creatures Fan Fiction)

Heal Me

"S-Seamus?!" I said quietly when he ran over. I tried to hide my arm under the long sleeve of my sweater, but he pulled it away to reveal the fresh cuts.

Seamus looked at me in shock. "Elle! Why did you do this to yourself?"

Soft tears fell quickly from my eyes, falling onto my now stinging arms. "I-I. It's hard to say." I finally spoke up before crying so much I was unable to speak.

Seamus looked at me with sorrow before pulling me into a hug. He held on to me tight, but was still gentle enough to not hurt my arm. "Don't do this to yourself, you were given a second chance. And-and, I don't want you taking that chance away the same way as before." He said to me. "The world wouldn't function properly without you, no one here would. I know Natalie will go bonkers if you died, she really doesn't talk to the other girls here like she does with you. Eddie, I bet, would flip, you guys have become almost siblings over time. Kevin would go mute again. And I-" He stopped for a moment to hold back his own tears. "I would be broken, empty that you killed yourself again. I would miss you, I would want you."

"But why?" I now asked the question. "Why would you want me?"

"Because I love you!" Seamus exclaimed, looking straight into my eyes. His eyes seemed to be more ice blue than ever before, spilling his own tears from them. I couldn't believe what he had said. He-He loves me! He really loves me!

At that moment, I quickly touched my lips into his, kissing more passionately than I have ever with James. Our heads moved in harmony as we kissed, both of us opening our mouths as our tongues ventured to each other. I wanted to stay like this forever. This, this was complete joy and bliss.

"ELLE!" Was heard again from across the school courtyard, so I pulled away from Seamus. He had some blood marks on his shirt from my cuts, which seemed to still be bleeding. I finally looked up from Seamus and saw Eddie run over to us, diving towards my arm. He looked at me in disbelief. "Elle, why did you do this?"

I looked at Eddie. I thought he knew why I did this. "Its hard to say." Was I could speak while Seamus was right there, he would find out too much.

Eddie sighed deeply. "Come on, I'll help you wash that up."

"Should I come too-"

"I said I was going to help her!" Eddie snapped. "You can go back to the table until we come back, ok?"

Seamus scoffed harshly, still following Eddie's orders and stomping off. Wow, he really did love me if he reacted to not being able to help that way.

Eddie pulled me into a private bathroom, one with a single toilet and sink. He placed my arm into the water has he turned it on, washing away most of the dry blood that was now on my arm. He then sat me down on the toilet, placing his hand over one of my cuts.

His hand flashed white, slowly moving his hand down my arm and up to my wrists before pulling back. I looked at my arm in shock, the cuts were fully healed and were all but little scars upon my left arm. "Don't do that again please, healing does take up a lot of energy." Eddie joked.

I smiled a bit, seeing Eddie grin at my response. "I will try not to." I said.

"Good." Eddie helped me up from my seat. "Now are you ready to deal with the world like a normal teen?"

"Am I normal?" I joked before following Eddie out of the door.

-----Time Skip-----

"Wooo!" Natalie yelled. "Graduation party the night before graduation!"

Natalie ran around in excitement, probably in a sugar rush from drinking half a box full of soda cans. Eddie giggled at her attitude, bringing out even more sodas for the rest of us.

The only people here were Natalie, Eddie, Kevin, Seamus, and I, but we still have a lot of fun together.

"Eddie!" His sister yelled from her room. "Stop being so loud!"

"SHUT UP KAT WE ARE GRADUATING TOMORROW!" Eddie yelled back. "WE MUST CELEBRATE!"

I could hear Kat yell to herself as Eddie giggled. God, he can get under anyone's nerves it seems like. "Well, lets continue the party!" I said excitedly.

Kevin laughed at my response while Seamus just shook his head and took a drink from his soda. I just grabbed myself a bowl of chips and my own soda as Eddie went to set up a movie to watch.

"What should we watch?" Kevin asked Eddie.

"I don't know!" Eddie exclaimed. "You guys pick!"

Seamus dug around the pile of movies Eddie threw on the floor, finding one in particular. "How about Mission Impossible 4?" He requested.

"Sure!" Natalie chirped.

"Fine by me." Kevin replied.

"Never seen the movie anyways." I said.

Eddie giggled again. "Ok! Lets watch it then!"

I sat down next to Natalie and Eddie on the big couch, while Kevin and Seamus sat on the small couch nearby. The movie was cool so far, but I couldn't help that my eyes were slowly drifting closed.

I could feel someone carry me into another room, setting me down on a bed before closing the door. I naturally got myself comfortable before fully falling asleep. Tomorrow was graduation, and I have yet to pick who I wanted to love. This will be an eventful day tomorrow.
