Misadventures

Love At First Hit

Hela:

"Rock, paper, scissors!" 

"I WIN!"

"I hate you..."

Hela beamed at Lucas, who was sulking in the corner. He was her coworker at the clothes shop she had a part time job at.

Lunchtime was almost over. The customers would start coming in at any point. 

"Heeeellloooo Helaaa!" 

She quickly turned around and rolled her eyes. They were never going to leave her alone. 

"What are you guys doing here?" 

"Enjoying the suspended life, man." Violet laughed. Thankfully Violet got over her initial anger at Bentley. She was in fact very happy.

"What is that in your hands, Sam?" Hela asked. Sam outstretched her hands revealing a pair of nunchucks. 

"Why do you have that?" 

Bentley answered, "We bought it because Violet is amazing in martial arts." 

Violet started acting all high and mighty. "I wouldn't say amazing or anything," she said with mock humility. Sam jumped up and down. "Show us some of your moves, girl." She started flapping her hands around like she was drowning and managed to knock down some mannequins in the process. 

"Ooh la la!" 

"Finesse!" Bentley and Sam said while clapping. 

"Give that to me right now." Hela yelled at Violet, snatching it from her. Someone poked Hela in the back. 

"Hey Hela, we have a customer. I'll go help him," Lucas said while walking away.

Hela nodded and glared at her friends. "Guys, you can do all of this crap at home but not in here, OK? Now clean up this mess."
"Hell no!!" Sam interjected. "It's Violet's fault so she'll clean it."
Violet shouted, "YOU GUYS ARE THE ONES WHO MADE ME DO THIS. SO YOU GUYS ARE GONNA DO THIS WITH ME."
And so they started arguing.

Hela frowned. "Guys, stop." But they didn't. "I said STOP!!" Hela lost her cool and threw the nunchucks at them.

Curse Sam and Violet's quick reflexes. They both ducked and watched as the nunchucks sailed over their heads and landed on the other side of the store. Everyone froze as a loud scream pierced through the air. "Shit!"Hela thought as she ran towards that side. She saw Lucas screaming.

"Lucas, are you alright? Did I hurt you?"
"N-no, you hit him,"Lucas said pointing behind Hela. She turned around and gasped. A guy was lying down holding his nose. "OMG! OMG! I'm so sorry. Are you alright?" He moved his hands away from his face to reveal blood trickling down his face. Some of was also smudged on his nose as he was holding it.

Sam and Bentley hugged each other and started screaming. Hela spoke, panic rising in her voice, "Everyone. In. The. Car. Now." The man touched his nose, gazed at his blood stained fingers for a moment and calmly said, "I'm bleeding." "Duh!"Bentley said before continuing to scream.

It was while running towards the car that they realised Violet wasn't with them. Sam ran back to see Violet on the floor, fainted. Lucas was prodding her with a broomstick. " I think she is dead."

"Of course not, you dumbnut," Sam said before picking her up and running towards the car.

Sam threw Violet into the back seat along with Hela and Bloody Dude and sat in the passenger seat while Bentley started the car. He pulled into the street and rode off towards the hospital. Hela assessed the situation. Bentley was driving the car as Sam was screaming like a velociraptor. Violet was reclining on Hela's left. Hela looked over to the man. Even while sitting, he towered over her.

Hela frowned. Something wasn't right. She turned as she looked around. Bentley driving. Sam screaming. Violet out cold. Man bleeding. "What's wrong?" That's when it hit her. The windows were rolled down. Nononononono

"Sam, shut the heck up!" "Why?" "The windows are down you dumbnut! Everyone can see what is going on! You think they won't be suspicious of a bleeding man in a car while someone is screaming!!??"

The sound of sirens filled the air. They turned around and saw a police car following them.

"Crap, crap, crap," Bentley muttered while rolling up the windows and stepped on the accelerators.

Hela pleaded, "Bennie, pull over. We can explain everything to them." "Over my dead body!" "Ben, please-"

"ENOUGH! I'm not stopping the car until we reach the hospital." He switched on the radio. 'Can't Help Falling In Love' by Elvis Presley played through the speakers. Bloody Dude looked at flashed a cute smile at her. She glared at him. "Don't you dare....." She turned towards the front and saw Bentley and Sam looking at them with a grin. Bloody Dude sighed exaggeratedly and gazed out of the window. "Well that was awkward" Sam said and changed the song. Adele said hello to everyone in the car. Hela had to keep herself from smiling as the melodramatic song perfectly matched the forlorn expression on Bloody Dude's face.

Bentley pulled into the parking lot. He had hardly stopped the car before Hela grabbed Bloody Dude's hand and jumped out of the car. She sprinted into the ER.

"Somebody help us!!"

"What's the patient's name, young lady?" A nurse asked.

"Bloody Dude. Wait no!"

Hela turned to Bloody Dude who was pressing a tissue to his nose.

"Dude, what's your name?" "It's Jordan."

Shoot, that's a cute name.

"You heard him. His name is Jordan." Hela told the nurse.

"Okay. Come along now."the nurse replied as she led Bloody Du - no, Jordan away from Hela.
