I suddenly felt someone carry me in bridal style. Ugh, my head hurts so much! What is happening to me? Smelling this perfect perfume straight into my nose makes me wanna stay here in this guy's arms forever. Who is this guy anyway? I want to see this person who is carrying me right now, but I'm too sleepy. I'm getting.. tired.. sleepy.. I'm gonna rest.

.-.

I slowly opened my eyes and first saw the ceiling. Why am I on a bed?

"Nurse, she's awake," I heard Pen's voice next to me and I examine everything around me and found out that I'm inside the clinic.

"W-what am I doing here?" I let out a whisper and tried to sit back up back the nurse stopped me. "You need to rest first. Peneloppe, go back to your class now, I'll take care of her." The nurse command.

"But I need to--"

"No buts! Just go, you can see Ria when your classes are already over." The nurse said and I quietly laughed when I saw Pen's pout and her sad face.

"See you later, I guess.." Pen said with a pout as I nod. She already left and I sighed, trying to remember what happened earlier.

"Um.. mind telling me the name who brought me here and what happened?" I asked the nurse who is busy reading a book. She answered, but didn't took her eyes out the book. "I didn't ask for his name, I'm sorry. But the way he brought you here? Like the look of someone afraid losing his love one. He was so worried, you know?" The nurse answered and I can't help but be curious again.

"What did he looked like?" I asked once again then the nurse tilt her head to think of the answer.

"With glasses and messy outfit. Oh, by the way! Do you know what happened to him? He looked like he was.. punched by someone, but I'm not sure. He walked quickly inside the clinic just to bring you here inside. He was heavily breathing and weak." I widened my eyes when I heard that. I quickly stood back up and suddenly felt a little dizzy, but I didn't mind it.

"Ria, where are you going?!" The nurse asked. "I'm sorry, ma'am! But I need to go back to class because I might miss my topics." I lied and quickly ran on the hallway even though the nurse is still calling out to me, but I didn't took a single glance at my back. I need to find him. The one who saved me. I don't care if I'm still weak right now! I don't care if I need to lay down that hard bed, only sleeping! I don't care if I can do it tomorrow! As long as I find the guy who I saved and who saved me, I'll be okay. My nerves will be okay.

That guy was the one who brought me to the clinic, but why didn't he want to get well after punches were thrown to him inside the music room? I don't know why I'm like this. Maybe because I'm too worried. Too worried that it's him who got beaten up, but still managed to be strong after all those. Why didn't I knew about it? If only I could come as soon as possible inside the music room, I could save him from those jerks.

Could it be Travis the one who saved me or I'm just hallucinating?
