Chapter 2: The 1st fight
I looked down in fear at our hands locked together. Then I saw her. Regina Haleem the 'Boss' of our school. She isn't the best person to hag around. She is petty, boujee, and a lot of things that Im still not allowed to say as a teenager.
I dropped his hand and gasped. "Harley? What's wrong." I ran past all the people out the door into the rain I heard footsteps behind me. And I turned around slightly and tripped over a rock.
"Harley! Your head is bleeding are you okay? Im going to get you to the hospital. He helped me up and into a Lyft. When we got into the hospital I couldn't see or hear anyone or anything.
I just remember feeling that tingling like earlier on my head. I woke up 4 hours later to Tristian sitting in the corner. Where was I? why did my head hurt? I saw an extremely bright light in my face. And I got scared till I felt my hand warm up.
I looked up and saw Tristian smiling down on me. Then I knew everything would be okay. Knowing that my best friend was with me I knew I would be okay.
"Hey sunshine," Tristian said in a deep voice.
Hmm sunshine, I like that nickname. I tried to speak but nothing would come out. "Oh yeah, the doctor said that there is a puncture in your throat from the fall. We are not sure what caused it, he said possibly another bone."
I nodded in agreement with what Tristian told me. I was scared out of my mind, I didn't know what to say...well do. "Regina in here and she wanted to say hi and ask if your okay." He said in a quite voice. I frantically shook my head. No, how could this day get any worse. She walked in the door wearing bright Pepto-bismol pink.
I grabbed onto Tristian and tugged him down and quietly whispered, "Get her out please." I let go of his shirt and he didn't move a muscle. I hit him on the back but nothing. "I can't." he said. I grabbed the white board next to me and wrote why. 'She's my girlfriend," he said letting out a sigh. There it goes again that thumping heartbeat.
I frantically pushed the nurses help button and tears fell down my face. The nurses guided them both swiftly out of my room. I wrote on the white board I need my uncle. Within the hours I heard a gentle knock and the nurse let in Tristian and the Pepto-bismol bottle. I instantly rose to my feet dragging my monitor along with me.
Walked up to her and pointed to the door. She got in my face and said "The next time you need help DON'T call on me you selfish little bit-. Tristian covered her mouth and shoved her out the door.
I saw Macie talking to uncle Ben outside of my door when Tristian had opened it. I got up ignoring him and slammed the door behind me. I walked up to uncle ben with tears in my eyes and gave him a big hug. He put his hand on my head and said, "Everything will be okay," I smiled and walked back into the room.
While the doctor was talking to my uncle Macie sneaked in a gigantic teddy bear. She sat next to me and said "I should have told you about Tristian and Regina."
I patted her o the shoulder and shrugged like I didn't care. "I know you care," she said mockingly. I rolled my eyes and saw the doctor. "Hey how you feeling?" the doctor asked. I put 2 thumbs up.
"Well great your voice will progressively feel better in about 3 days so you can talk on the 3rd." I started clapping. "Alright well your free to go." I nodded my head as he shut the door behind him.
I grabbed my clothes and put on my clothes. I walked out and we were off to the house for dinner. "I think Tristian in bringing Regina." Macie said subtly. I stopped in my tracks.
I turned around and saw the two walking behind us. I swiftly walked in front of them making them stop. And whispered to Regina, "Im not a B," I stepped back and she said "Takes on to know one." I felt anger rise to the tp of my head.
My fist clenched together, and I threw one after another at her until I was on the ground pulling her hair. Suddenly, I felt a strong set of hands pick me up. It was uncle Ben, he snatched me up and set me down.
I was breathing very intensively. My face grew red and I stomped off leaving Regina on the ground hand in hand with Macie. "That. Was. AMAZING." She said as we walked off. I couldn't help but laugh at Macie's face. "she's never going to mess with us again," she said. I felt a buzz in my pocket.
It was a message from Tristian saying, Im sorry I should have told you. I replied yep, and slipped my phone back into my back pocket and walked away.
