Rebel

Chapter 4

 I woke up to the feeling of getting lifted off the ground, heavy breathing. I couldn't open my eyes, but I heard thousands people yelling. "Did you hear? Her dad went missing" Someone said from my left. I open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. "No worries, everyone. Allison is safe with me" A familiar voice says. Was it- Jaxson? No way, I left him by the creek. I open my eyes slightly to see Jaxson holding me tight, reassuring everyone I was okay. He looks down at me. "Hey Alli, big fall there you took. No worries, I got you" He says softly, looking at me. I slightly smile, but then feel pain in my arm as he shifts me to his right. I wince and open my mouth, ready to scream. "It's okay Allison, It's okay. Dr. Mars is here, he will assist insist your arm" he reassures, putting me onto a hard, cold bed. I hold my arm as it suddenly gets colder than usual. I shiver. "Okay allison, what happened here" A male voice says, touching my arm softly. I wince with pain. It gets quiet around me. I open my mouth to speak, but the only thing that comes out is a groan. Someone touched my arm, and it hurt. Like, really bad. Everyone rushes towards me. Trust me, that didn't help my pain at all. "Hey, everyone! Stop it. She is in enough pain as it is. Back up" Jaxson yells. I imagine his soft lips moving up and down as he told everyone to get away from me.

A couple hours later, I found myself in the hospital. Sitting on one of those cotton beds, my arm wrapped severely tight. I look at Jaxson. I can finally find my words, but I don't know what to say. "Are you okay" He asks, looking at me with his adorably brown eyes. "Yeah, i'm fine" I say, but I wince. That makes him not believe me. He stands up and walks to me. "What happened?" He asks, sitting by me on the uncomfortable bed. I look down. "My clumsiness is what happened" I mumble, knowing he would make fun of me. I look at him, he is holding back laughter. I look back down, how can I pretend to be fearless when I can't even walk through a forest without getting hurt?! "Hey, I like your clumsiness. It lets me know there's some soft bunny behind that Tiger" he smirks, looking at me. I look at him in horror. He thinks I'm a soft bunny? Oh hun, you have not seen the un-clumsy me. "I'm not a soft bunny. Unless you think Soft bunnies can turn all..." I search for my words. I don't want to say bad, because he'll laugh. "Since when are bad people clumsy" he will say, I can already hear his soft voice, his laughter. Too much to handle. "Can turn all what? Clumsy" He laughs at this. "You know, this is the reason I was trying to get away from you in the first place! Your always making fun of me, can't take anything serious! I'm so sick of you! And that's saying something, because I'm a people person, But you. You are driving me insane!" I start to yell, standing up and looking at him. "First, my dad just like...disappears out of thin air, then all of a sudden this boy who knows everything about me comes to my house and insists that I follow him! Then you make fun of my clumsiness, and then I fall! This town is a freaking curse" I finish, pointing at him. He looks at me with sad eyes. "I know where your dad is, that's where I was trying to take you" He says softly, looking at me. I jerk back. Well, did not see that coming. "Ohhhhh" I say, feeling bad for yelling at him. "But since i'm driving you insane, I don't have to worry about that anymore" He says, standing up. I grab his wrist. "No! Don't go. I'm sorry for yelling at you, I just have this problem were I can't stop myself from yelling at people" I say, looking into his eyes.

"It's okay Rae. But come on, we have to find your dad before the PAC hurts him" Jaxson tells me, grabbing my hand and turning to run. I pull back. "PAC? Who are they? Why do they want my dad" I ask. He shakes his head. "I will explain later. Just come on, follow me" He says. I nod and let him drag me out of the hospital room.

When we were outside, he quickly looked around for something. Don't ask me what that something was, because I couldn't tell you. He gripped onto my hand and pulled me on his back. "Are you sure your ready to ruin your soft bunny side" he asks, looking at me. I nod. "Let's turn Rebel" I say.
