It's Complicated.. [REWRITING]

Chapter Seven

Sorry for not updating yesterday guys. ^^

And Char, I'll use the idea you gave me in a later chapter. ;;;)

"He didn't hit me, Aiden." I said for about the tenth time. I sighed, sitting up against the wall on the bed in the nurses office.

"Are you sure? You were alone and then when he asked me to come out you were on the floor." He said, standing in front of me, his hands on the bed either side of my legs.

"Yes Aiden, I just passed out." I told him, shaking my head slightly.

"Well, are you going back home tonight?" He asked, and I shrugged in reply.

"He was drunk when he.." I said, my words fading out nearer the end. "He didn't know what he was doing." I whispered, looking down at my lap.

"So you're going home then." He muttered, pushing himself away from the bed.

"He's not going to do it again, Aiden." I said, playfully kicking the back of him knee, causing him to stumble a little before turning around.

I looked over at the door as it opened, revealing the school nurse who gave me a smile.

"Good to see you awake, Miss Corey." She said happily while walking over to the bed. "Do you know what made you pass out?"

"I-I got stressed about my project, and then got a panic attack." I lied, my voice quiet as I looked down at my knees.

"Alright. Because you passed out I'm going to have to send you home. Do you have anyone to pick you up?"

"No, my boyfriend is at work." I replied, glancing up at her.

"I could drive her home, Mr. Croft already dismissed me and its lunch next." Aiden spoke up, looking over at me.

The nurse nodded "Alright, if that's okay with you, Sam?" She asked.

"Sure." I said with a small smile, sliding to the edge of the bed and standing up.

Aiden looked over at me as we pulled up outside my apartment block.

"Sam, if you trust him, then that's your decision to go back, but if he even lays one finger on you, you come straight to me, do you understand?" He said softly, gently lifting my face to look at him.

I nodded, giving him a small smile "Thanks, Aiden." I said before picking up my bag, which Aiden had got before he came to the nurses office.

I got out the car and shut the door, standing on the path beside the car, waiting for him to drive away before I walked to my apartment. I gave him a small wave as he left and turned, letting out a sigh as I made my way to the elevator.

I looked down at my phone as I stepped into the elevator, pressing my lips together as I scrolled though my contacts down to Tyrone's name, my thumb hovering over the call button. It took a few seconds for my thumb to make contact with the screen. With a sigh, I brought the phone to my ear, only taking a few rings for Tyrone to answer.

"Hey Hun. Are you alright?" He asked as I stepped out of the elevator.

"Yeah, I'm alright. Aiden gave me a lift home." I said, shoving my key into the lock.

"Y-you're coming home?" He asked, and I knew there would be a smile on his face.

I nodded, before realising he couldn't see me "Yeah. We'll talk about it when you get home?" I asked, my voice a little quieter than usual as I pulled the key out of the lock with a little struggle, pushing the door closed with my foot.
