Just another high school love story (Colby Brock x reader)

Chapter 11

I had enough strength to open my eyes slightly. I saw Colby over top of me. I lifted my hand only long enough to touch his face so he knew I was okay. I noticed we were still outside.

"What time is it?" I tried to ask.

"Lunchtime, wait I change my answer, after lunch. I skipped class to find you because you weren't at lunch. I asked your teacher if they saw you leave or enter and they said no so I just started looking for you." He looked at me with a lot of worry in his eyes.

"Colby, I'm fine, really. Just, please bring me back to your place."

"Your wish is my command." He said using all of his strength to lift me up and bring me home. He's not as strong as he looks.

When we got to his place he set me down on the couch. He decided to start looking at my wounds.

"Wow that person really beat you up. Are you really okay?" Colby asked.

"I'm fine. Only a couple cuts and bruises here and there." I answered. He touched my lip, my head jolted back as he did.

"Did that hurt?" He looked at his finger and there was blood on it.

"A little."

"Where else does it hurt?"

I lifted up my shirt and he looks at my side.

"Jesus." Colby's eyes were wide.

"What?" I said looking down.

"You're black and blue. Who beat you up?"

"I don't know."

"Do you really not know?" He locked eyes with me, I looked away awkwardly.

"I forgot, all I remember is waking up and seeing you." I say not wanting Colby to get beaten up as well or get in any trouble. He grabbed the side of my shirt out of my hand and put it down, he was going to gag if he looked at it any longer. He grabbed one of those tiny bandages and put it on my eyebrow.

"Come upstairs to rest for a while." He said trying to look into my eyes, but I kept looking away. I nodded. He grabbed my hand to help me up. He held onto me like if I fell I was going to break. I sat down on the bed, took off my shoes, and laid down. I looked up and noticed Colby was watching me the whole time.

"Why are you staring?"

"Because I wanna make sure you don't get hurt anymore." He said walking closer to me. I heard the front door close downstairs.

"Sam must be home." Colby said. "We're upstairs!" He yelled looking towards the door. We heard loud footsteps go up the stairs. He rounded the corner.

"Y/n, Colby, I thought you guys were dead! Where were y—what the fuck?" Sam said looking me my face. "What happened?"

"She got beat up and she says she forgot who did it." Colby didn't let me answer him.

"Wow, are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine." I answer. I was really in excruciating pain, but I tried not to let it bother me. I cough and I couldn't hold the pain in any longer than I already had.
"Ah." I let out and quietly as I can. Colby quickly looks at me.

"You can stop babying me now." I said.

"Okay, well I'm going to go watch tv now." Sam says leaving. I wave at him. Colby starts to walk out.

"Did I wave, for even say for you to leave? No." Don't do this to yourself y/n, just don't talk anymore. Why would you even say that to him.

"What?" Colby stops in his tracks and looks back at me taken aback.

"Come back over here." Stop letting this side of you talk. It always ruins things. It is part of the reason you don't talk to any of your friends from your old school. They made this side come out of you,

"Okay?" He's still surprised by me. He get close enough for me to reach out and touch him.

"Stay in here please. I don't feel safe right now." Stop letting IT talk. IT ruins all your relationships.

"Okay then what do you want me to do?"

"Lay with me... please." Oh god what did IT just do?!

He walked around the bed and laid down. I ended up turning around to face towards him. He inched closer to me. I could tell because I opened my eyes once in a while. I got sick of it so I pretended I was sleeping and decided to cuddle right up to him. I fell asleep.
