The Brothers

Chapter 8

When I finally came too, I was in some boy's bed with six ice packs placed all over my body, one on my eye, one on my right arm, one on my left arm, two placed on my rib-cage, and one on my ankle. It was crazy to think that in fifteen minutes they only got six punches in. I tried to sit up, but when I leaned forward it was very clear that one of my ribs were broken. "Ahh fudge that hurts!" " KYLE!?" 

"I'm here babe, woah all you bruises are gone!" He said with a huge grin on his face.

" Umm I think my ribs are broken, but other wise I'm good. And Where am I?" I could see the amusement on his face as soon as I asked that question, " I'm in your bed, wearing your clothes aren't I?"

" You got that right babe, looks like they didn't do that much damage to your beautiful brain!" He said with a wink.

" Kyle, why didn't you save me earlier?" I asked hoping the hurt and disappoint meant shown in my eyes.

" Sierra I know you must be mad, but know that while they were doing that.... to you I was fighting against the four vampires that were holding me back, but I couldn't break through, just please know that I was trying to help you." He said pleading me to forgive him, and I knew right then and there that he was my prince.

" I think your my prince!" I said without even thinking, but I was so happy that I said that because his face lit up.

" You don't really mean that do you?" He asked, his eyes filled with trust.

"I think I do!" I reply with a huge grin on my face. 

" Well, by the way,  we told your mom that you were mugged on the way home from school.  She didn't believe us probably because  we told her that you were staying at our house." 

" Well I would be too!" I said, trying to get up, but failing miserably because of my broken ribs.

" Sierra, don't try to get up just yet." Kyle said, his eyes were filled with concern.

" Really Kyle I'm fine." I said trying to reassure him. I still couldn't believe that some vampires had kidnapped me for just living, but the thing I didn't know was why they waited till now to try to kill me. I figured I had to be a certain age for my "powers" to start working.

" Sierra! Sierra you good?" Kyle asked with an even more worried look in his eyes.

" Yeah, I just wanna know why the vampires attacked me now?"  As soon as I said "vampires" I knew I had just over stepped some imaginary line. " Look Kyle I'm sorry okay? Just forget about it." I said hoping he would just leave it alone.

" Sierra! Do you know how hard it was knowing that me and my brothers couldn't protect you? And then watching you get beat up like a punching bag?" He asked fury over taking his gorgeous face.

" Really Kyle? Do YOU  know how hard it was knowing that I have to watch my back, because I know for a fact that there are vampires in our school, and they want me dead. And do you also know how hard it is to move and breathe right now? And I get this for helping someone, and its not like I did anything to their kind." I ask seething with anger. At this point I don't even notice the pain in my ribs, I get up and try and rush past Kyle, but he stands tall and blocks my only way out.

" I am sorry Sierra that anger was not meant for you it was meant for them." He said clearly pissed at himself and at the vampires.

" It's okay Kyle just can you go get me some coffee?" I asked hoping he would so I could escape, I had no Idea why I wanted to, but the way he snapped at me made me almost scared.

" Okay Babe, I'll be right back!" Kyle said with his usual smirk back on his face. I needed to get out of here and fast, I figured that Sawyer and James were probably downstairs. I quickly grabbed my phone and my shoes and I headed to the window. I meantly high-fived myself for remembering this house only had one story. I opened the window with ease, because there was no screen blocking me from freedom. I quickly steeped outside and started to run. I hoped no one would question me because I was wearing a skirt and Birkenstocks. When I finally reached my house, which was withing minutes, because the Bailey house was only four houses down from mine.

" Hey Mom! I'm home!" I yelled into the living room. 

" Woah! Sierra I didn't expect to see you here!" Kyle said. I could not believe this. He was here in my house knowing I wanted to go home. My anger resurfacing again I raced  up to my bedroom, and locked my door.  I called Callie and told her to meet  me at the mall. Then I went to my bathroom which had a ladder near the window so I could get out without Kyle or my mom seeing me. After I reached the ground I ran around the corner only to come face to face with Kyle.
