The Working Mind of Thisbe Tringket

chapter 17

I felt myself stir in my sleep. Maybe i was finally waking up.

I tried to open my eye lids but they were still to heavy.

I kept trying as the sound of Braxtons voice filled my ears, desperately pleading i wake up.

Why would it be him and not Zeek?

Where was Zeek?

Finally i felt my eye lids flutter open to see six heads crowded above me, looking at me anxiously.

Soon after turning into eight heads as Brie and Derek showed up looking worried and flustered.

"Welcome back to the real world!" Derek said breaking the silence," but we have new problems." He finished. Looking more worried then ever.

Everyone backed away as i sat up and swung my legs over the bed feeling like i could run a marathon.

"What now?" I asked him.

"We have to get out of here." Brielle piped up looking away from me to a new guy that i recognized from a dream i had, guess it wasn't a dream...

"Yeah we do." He said,"and i have a plan, i was just waiting for you to wake up."

Everyone looked at, Liam, i think his name was.

"Well are you all gonna look confused or are you going to follow me?" He said matter of factly.

We all nodded and got up grabbing our still packed bags and following him to the downstairs.

"Why are we down here?" I asked once we had all piled into a small room on the other side of the pantry.

He stepped aside to reveal yet another door.

"I swear if there's another door on the other side of the im gonna punch you." I said and everyone looked at me weird'"what?" I said to them

"Its just that you were here before you got knocked out here..." Braxton said slowly, looking really worried.

I looked up at him, why was he acting like we were friends again? I was still mad at him. He broke my heart after all.

And he still hasn't apologized.

"Thisbe..." he said interrupting my thoughts.

"What?" I said again.

"Do you remember anything about the morning after we played 'never have i ever'?" He asked.

I thought about it for a second, then my eyes went wide.

I didn't remember anything.

I felt my head slowly shake out a 'no' and I looked at Braxton again.

He had tears brimming the edge of his eyes as he looked at me sadly.

"Why what happened?" I asked the sad look on Braxtons face making me want to go over to him and just hug him until he feels better. But i didn't want him to push me away again, so instead i looked at Zeek, who had a triumphant smile on his face.

"Nothing love." He said wrapping his arm around me.

------------------------------------------------------

Thisbe didn't remember what happened.

She didn't remember us kissing.

Or me telling her i loved her.

Her saying that she might love me too.

It wasn't fair.

I was about to tell her everything when Zeek stepped in.
