Toxic

Home

I waited for the nurses shift to be over for what felt like hours. When she finally came back into the room I was laying in the hospital bed half sleep with my head about to fall off the bed.
"Hey kid lets go!" She yelled from the door
I jumped up startled and jogged over to her
"Alright we need to swing by a couple places before we go back to my place" she talked quickly stating out the rest of the evening plans while she twisted her car keys around her ring finger
I'll admit she is kinda cool
"So kid what's your name" she asks as the elevator doors to the car garage open up
"Shouldn't you already know that? You were the one to file my report and you were my nurse" I was totally confused she knew my name but she still asked me that's weird
"I was being polite, kid. After all I am gonna be your new guardian"
"My names amber" I state as I walk beside her as she clicks her keys and a loud beep to unlock the doors comes from the car... wait it's a freaking Bentley
"What.... oh my fuck..." my mouth is basically on the ground in shock
HOW DOES A NURSE HAVE A BENTLEY...
A FUCKING BENTLEY!!!!!
"You like the car?" She smirks as she opens her door
"I think I'm in love, is this what love at first sight feels like because I'm gone, done for, no one else will ever have my heart" I say as I place my head on the roof of the car on the passenger side door.
the nurse just laughs and gets into the car
"That's probably the first time I ever heard you speak more than 10 words and they weren't depressing" she smiled at me
"What can I say? I'm in love and I don't care who knows it" I jump into the car and run my fingers over the dash
"Alright miss comedian, let's calm down" she laughs
The car ride was long but enjoyable, I found out a little more about the nurse, like her name is Rebecca and she right now has 2 foster kids and 1 actual kid, she has a husband who is apparently mega rich and loves kids so she knows he don't mind fostering me as well, apparently one of the foster kids is also the same age as me which is convenient hopefully it's a girl I could use some girl talk and the other is a year older than me.
"Alright, we are at our first destination" she says as she takes off her seat belt and looks out my window to a house... wait that's my house.
"Why are we here?" I ask confused and a little emotional
"We need to get you some more clothes and all your stuff, also anything else that you want right now"
I nod my head and get out of the car, my heart starts to race as memories start to flood in.
"Amber catch me!" Screamed Addison as she jumped out of her swing set into my arms
"Woah there pumpkin you liked to have killed yourself" I laughed
"Girls come inside I have lunch ready!" Mom yelled from the kitchen as the smell of lemonade and fresh chicken came from out of the house
"Yummmm" me and Addison both said at the same time
"I'll beat you to the front door!" Addison said before running full speed to the front door
Tears start to fall as I open the front door, it's a ghost house. No one is here, it looks so dark and cruel like the devil is laughing at me through some other dimension. I feel like I'm drowning in my own tears, I can't breathe, I can't fucking breathe. I can't move either what the hell is happening. I grab my chest and slam the door shut, I put my back up against the door unable to catch my breath or even see through the tears in my eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey" Rebecca runs up and grabs my shoulders
"I.... I... can't breathe" I struggle to get out
"Okay, listen to me, breathe in slowly and then breathe out okay" I do as she says
"Just stay looking right at me your gonna be okay" After a few minutes I was finally able to calm down
"I don't think I can go inside, it's too much" I say as I lean my head against the front door
"It's okay, I'll go inside and get you a few things that you need, you can go wait in the car, it won't take me long" I nodded as she stood up and then helped me up
"Here" she places the keys to the Bentley in my hands
Wow she has a lot of trust, giving me the keys to her Bentley she is crazy.
The nurse, Rebecca, ran inside the house and came back out after ten minutes of me waiting in the car listening to Spotify's sad song playlist.
She popped the trunk to the Bentley and placed my suitcase that I got for a trip that we took to the Caribbean last summer.
"Alright a few more stops then we will be on our way to my humble home" she smiles at me trying to lighten the mood
I give a small fake smile back to her, but I know she saw straight through that fake ness.
After about five different other stops we were on our way to Rebecca's house, with my stuff, groceries, dinner, and a few movies. I guess this family really likes to watch movies, I really didn't do much of that as a kid if I did I was too young to remember. The tv was always on little kid shows because Addison couldn't watch mature shows, and we did whatever Addison wanted because she was the little light of mine and my mothers life.
We arrive at the Bentley estates
WAIT HOLD UP
"Your husband is Richard Bentley he owns the Bentley car brand?!"
"Maybe" she smirked as she kept driving up their long driveway
"Why didn't you say something?!"
"I don't like when people think I have money, people treat you differently when you have money, they don't talk to you like your a regular human with regular problems, they see you as this perfect person who has zero problems in the world. That is not me, no one outside of my family knows I have money and I like to keep it that way" she smiles then whispers "you have more true friends that way"
We reach the front doors of the house and it was like a dream, even the front door looks like it was more expensive than my entire house. The door opens and we walk inside. My jaw instantly dropped the hallway was made of marble, marble walls, marble ceiling and marble floors.
"This is a twelve bedroom house so I'm sure you will find a room that suits you that isn't already taken by the others" rebecca says as she hands me my suit case and points up the stairs
"The bedrooms are on the second floor, for calm one for yourself I'm going to be down here preparing dinner"
I decided to head up the stairs and look for the bedroom the farthest away from everyone. While walking down the hallway I hear a buzz come from my bag and decided to open it up. It was my cell phone, I guess I forgot it at my house the day of the wreck and Rebecca must've picked it up for me.
I continued to walk until I bumped into something hard and fell on the ground
"Shit" I rub my head and pick up my phone
"I hope I didn't..." I stopped talking as I realized I didn't run into something I ran into SOMEONE
OH MY GOD ITS LOGAN SMITH
"I'm... I'm... I'm" I couldn't get the words out of my mouth
What the hell is happening to me
"What's wrong love? Cat got your tongue" he smirked as he stepped over me and walked into a room
WHAT A FUCKING JERK
