I looked at Calvin as the paramedics came and took him to the hospital. He had a swollen eye and a badly bruised face. They said he had a broken rib and internal bleeding.
My body felt numb as my mind ran through the memory again. It happen so fast as Alex attacked Calvin. I felt a warm hand rubbed my shoulder, I looked up and saw Hennessy. I smiled.
"I'm heading home, Peter's gonna drop me off on the way back, you coming?" she spoke, today's event has taken a bit of a toll on us. I shook my head. I didn't really feel like going home as yet. Hennessy nods her head in understanding and walked back to where Peter was waiting for her.
The carnival was slowing dying down. Everyone was exiting, maybe scared another brutally fight will start again.
I walked to the nearest bench and sat. I couldn't believe Alex would do such thing. I thought I had known him but I guess not. Maybe that was what Castro warned me about. His eyes held an betrayal and pain, maybe he and Calvin had something. No one attacks someone like that for stealing their date.
I felt the atmosphere warm up around me. I sighed at the warmth but began to deeply regret it, Alex. He sat beside me. I debated with myself whether to break the silence or just let it remain. I didn't want to see him right now not after what he had done to Calvin.
"I'm sorry," Alex breathed out. I remained silent. It gonna take hell a lot more than sorry to get me to talk to him.
"What more do you want me to say, cause I'm sure as hell not sorry for beating his ass," he continued. I stared at my boots.
"I saw how you looked at him before you beat him," he looked at me, "you looked betrayed and hurt, why?" I asked. "Calvin and I have history, we are.... acquainted with each other, but the hurt was for you, you hurt me,"
Now I felt like the bad guy, "Me? How could I have hurt you, I have done nothing wrong you are the one who decided to go throwing punches,""You ditched me on the date, you left me to go on the ferris wheel with that douche bag I stood there like an idiot trying to get you that bear while you are out there with Calvin," he spat a bit harsh.
I decided that's I would remain silent, no point in arguing. He had no right to through with that punch now he wanted me to be the bad guy.
" You wanna ride home?" He asked.
"I'll take my chances and walk," I said not feeling to be in a closed space with this incompetent. "Come on, you know Hennessy will have my head if I leave you out here so stop being so full of yourself and let me take you home,".The car sped along the road as I took pics on Alexander here and there. We had stopped at McDonald's to get something to eat I decided not, what can I say it's just the old lady in me?
10 minutes later we arrived at the Figuero mansion. I made my way over to Hennessy's bungalow. I fell on the bed not bothering to wake Hennessy. And like that I was out like a light.
The next day I glanced at my clock realizing it was now noon. I had been at the hospital since 8:00 o clock. My conscience just will rest. I sat in Calvin's hospital room his bruises had healed but the internal bleeding was still pouring.
I really wanted to know what was going on between both of them, it just felt as though they both had something to do with Alex's outburst of anger. No one had shown at the hospital to claim him or even to look after him, I wonder what's wrong with his family did they not know?
Alex was paying for his insurance well, maybe out of guilt and a beating from me. Hennessy came back with the coffee that she went out to buy." One latte for a certain redhead,"she handed me my coffee, I smiled and took it. I guess my face gave it away, I was a bit worried, I felt as if this was my fault but also theirs.
"Remey, stop beating yourself up over this it's not your fault trust me, this is Alex's fault not yours boo,"
"I know but I felt as if I could have stopped this some way it's eating me alive maybe I shouldn't have went with him, maybe I should have just staying at the rig he wouldn't have been in the hospital right now if he dies this isn't going to end well," she hugs me cuddling me in her blue knitted sweater that smelt like, she smelt like autumn.
We left after the visiting hours were through. I walked up to my room the door was slightly ajar. I curiously pushed it it open, I was certain I had lifted closed.
I grasped as I saw rose petals scattered in my room, candle lit all over and Alex sat there with a bouquet in his hand.
I stood there feeling amazed. "I know I'm not the best person but I will continue to make adjustments, I feel a pity in my stomach if I'm not around you or talking to you, I will always try my best even if it's not the best for you," Alexander confessed. His speech made me a bit nervous, sure he'd put a guy in the hospital but at least he spoke the truth.
I smiled and hugged him. I rapped my arms around his firm torso and sighed, I felt really comfortable in his arms. He placed his head in my ginger hair.
"Since I am already blabbing, would you officially go out with me?" he smirked. "Well at least you didn't kidnap me this time" I giggled back. "When have I ever kidnapped you?" acting innocent. I raised a brow, "don't even get me started but sure, I'll go out with you but Hennessy can't know?"
"Wouldn't have it any other way," Alex said as we cuddled in the bed, enjoying each other presences.
