Freakish

Chapter 17: The Cure

"Come to the cafeteria," he demands before leaving the room. Liv picks Arian up and we walk to the cafeteria. We all sit down and everybody that's left is here.

Max's POV
"Everybody give me your attention please," I greet.
"Now I know that I am admitting this a little late, but when I grabbed my bag my parents left me for emergencies, I found a pill bottle that says, 'if you ever breath any smoke no matter what take one of these pills'," I explain.
"They're chewable but take a while to kick in, and I think it'll work, for somebody who is already bit and/or turned," I add.
"This kid is WAY smarter then I thought he was," Noodle replies.
"So what you're saying is, these pills can make my brother human again?" Jc asks.
"It be worth a try," I reply. Jc starts to walk up to me slowly then squats down.
"Hand me one," he mumbles. I pull one of the pills out of the bottle and hand it to him. Then he walks out of the cafeteria.
"How many do you have?" Brianna asks.
"I have 6 now," I reply. Zoe stands up with rage on her face.

Liv's POV
After Jc leaves the cafeteria Zoe stands up and glares at max. She starts walking towards him.
"You have had that the whole time," she replies.
"AND YOU NEVER SAID ANYTHING," she yells. She starts stomping over to max. Brianna runs over and picks up max and I push Zoe onto the floor.
"Zoe, Lashawn wasn't turning, he was dying," I explain.
"And if you ever try to touch max again, I swear to god," I tell her as she lays on the floor. Barrett walks over and helps her up. I grab Max's hand and walk out of the cafeteria in anger, Brianna follows behind us. We walk down to the basement and see Jc sitting on the stool again. Kc was lying on the floor.
"Jc, did it work," Brianna asks quietly and slowly. Jc slides his hand down his face.
"I don't know, he hasn't woken up yet and he still looks like a freak, just dead," he replies slowly.
"Max are you sure that was the right pill?" Brianna asks as she squats down next to Max. I let go of Max's hand and slowly walk up to Jc.
"Jc, are you ok?" I ask.
"Yeah, I'm fine," he say wiping a tear away. I move to the front of him and squat down.
"Jc, you're not fine," I tell him.
"No," he mumbles as he starts to cry. We both stand up and hug. Brianna grabs Max's hand and starts walking upstairs, while Jc cry's into my shoulder. Seeing Jc cry makes me feel so sad myself and I barely knew Kc, I just can't help but feel so bad. He lets go of me and I wipe his tears away.
"This is embarrassing," he says before we chuckle a little.
"It's ok, I would too, I would literally die if I lost Arian," I explain. Jc leans in to kiss me. As I'm about to kiss back I remember Arian choked. I pull away from Jc.
"What?" he asks.
"Arian..I have to go," I tell him.
"What why?" he asks as I start to run up the stairs. He starts to run after me. I get into the anxiety room and Arians sleeping.
"Thank god," I say.
"Liv what is it?" Jc asks as he runs into the room.
"Arian started choking on butterscotch candy and could have died," I say.
"Oh," he replies.
"I'm just going to sleep in here tonight," I exclaim.
"Ok do you want me to stay with you, or no?" he asks.
"Sure," I reply.
"K, I'm going to go grab some blankets," he explains. I smile at him and start to play with Arians hair.
Its 10:52 and he's finally back.
"Sorry it took so long," he greets laying a blanket over Arian.
"I couldn't find many blankets around," he adds. He sits down next to me covers me with his blanket. I guess we're just sharing.

Jc's POV
*crash noises*
"What the hell," I whisper to myself. I sit up and get off the bed without moving the blanket and waking up Liv.
*more crash noises*
I open the door and peak outside. Somebody's laying on the floor struggling to get up.
"HEY, who are you?" I ask. They start trying to stand up, but fall back down when there knee touches the floor. Once I catch up with them, I turn them on there back.
"Holy shit," I say.
"Kc, can you hear me?" I ask shaking him a little bit.
"How, how are you alive, no way," I stutter.
"SOMEBODY, HELP," I yell.

Kc's POV
"Kc, can you hear me?" somebody asks. My vision is blurry and I'm seeing double. His voice is so loud and echoey. I feel sick and sweaty, I feel like I'm dying. A guy that I go to school with picks me up with the help of my brother. They lay me down on a table and later on move me to a bed.
"Kc, can you hear me?" Brianna asks.
"Brianna..you're..safe," I mumble very quietly. My body won't let me speak normally. My arms and legs are numb.
"Yes, I'm safe," she replies grabbing my hand. I feel so tired and just black out.

I start to blink rapidly as my eyes adjust to the lighting. I see somebody move close to me after seeing me blink. Once my eyes focus, I see Jc.
"Am I dead?" I ask. Jc chuckles and sighs in relief.
"I have a raging head ache," I add as I sit up.
"Careful," Jc replies as he tries to help me.
"HEY, I ain't no little bitch, I can help myself up," I tell him.
"Yeah that's definitely Kc," I hear somebody say. I look over and see Brianna.
"What the hell happened?" I ask.
"You wouldn't believe it," Jc replies.
"Try me," I tell him.
