Help Me Through It. | Creek

°• ~ Part Twelve ~ •°

Couple Days Later

I sat there on the couch in my living room, watching my mom while slowly drinking a cup of coffee.

She was suffering.. And I was hating it so much.

Just listening to her cries in pain.

And what's even more worst, I couldn't help her.

All I can do was just sit there and watch.

I was stubborn enough to pray for her to wake up. And now she's suffering because of it.

My dad did everything he can do to help her.

A doctor would check my mom everyday.

Like that helped any.

I'd sit here for hours and just listen to her cry in pain.

Nobody should ever see a family member go through this.

If you do, I'm so sorry.

I tried to not freak out when I heard her screaming, but my twitching was out of control. I don't want to leave her, but I don't know if I can just sit here and listen..

Too. Much. Pressure.

"GAH!" I quickly clapped my hands over my ears and dropped my head forward as tears poured down my face.

"Son.." my dad walked up to me and put his hand on my back. "Go to your room. I'll stay with your mom. Get some rest."

I nodded as I kept crying and slowly stood up. "I love you mom."

I whispered, but I couldn't look at her anymore. At least not now.

"I...love..you.... sweetheart" she whispered back. I quickly ran up the stairs and went to my room, shutting the door behind me. After I did that, I leaned against my door and slowly slid down it as I bawled my eyes out.

I wish Craig was here.

I haven't seen him ever since my mom came home.

I miss him so much.

I need him.

I laid the back of my head against the door and shut my eyes as I continued to listen to my mom's screaming and crying.

I couldn't handle it. I had to leave. I quickly got up and changed into a green shirt and black skinny jeans.

After I finished, I slid on my slippers and crawled out of my window.

I quickly ran away from the house.

I ran all the way to Craig's house.

I didn't want his parents to see I was there, so I tried to climb the tree.

It was hell. Especially since my dumbass wore slippers like an idiot.

Surprisingly I made it though, kinda. I was hanging there.

Wait.

Oh my god.

I'm gonna die.

This was a mistake.

Fuck me fuck me fuck me.

Okay, if I freeze then I won't fall and die..

Right?

I heard the tree make noises.

Nope.

I'm gonna die.

Right beside Craig's house.

And I haven't even seen him in a couple days.

I looked over at him.

He was sitting on his bed, watching his favorite show.

Yep, I'm gonna die.

At least if I die, I'll remember what he looks like.

Craig sat up and stretched his body. When he heard a noise, he slowly turned his head towards the window and let out a bloody scream when he seen me.

I also screamed and almost fell off the tree.

"JESUS CHRIST DUDE!" I shouted as I hugged the tree as if my life depended on it.

"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?" He shouted back at me as he quickly opened the window.

"T-TRYING TO NOT DIE!" I kept hugging the tree as tightly as possible..

Hehe.

Tree hugger.

Hehe.

Ah fuck, I'm alone forever.

Craig reached his hand out. "TWEEK! GIVE ME YOUR HAND!"

I stared at his hand but didn't grab it. "B-but I'm scared!"

Craig glared at me. "Seriously? You weren't scared enough to climb the tree, but your scared to grab my hand?" He asked with his monotoned voice. When I didn't say anything, he sighed. "Do you trust me?"

I nodded my head quickly.

"Then grab my hand"

I quickly grabbed his hand. He pulled me fast into his room before I ended up falling. I fell against him and hugged him for a moment.

I pulled away a little and looked up at him.

We didn't say a word to each other, we just stared into each other's eyes.

I pulled away quickly and blushed. "I...umm..Im sorry I'm here I just couldn't handle staying home." Tears build up in my eyes and I sniffled. "and...and....a-and-" I couldn't stop the tears that slipped down my face.

I fell to my knees while grabbing my head and tried to catch my breath while sobbing.

Craig crouched down and pulled me into his arms, whispering sweet soothing words into my ear while gently rocking me.

It calmed me down within seconds.

I nuzzled my face into his neck while gripping his shirt into my fist.

He picked me up bridal style and carried me to his bed.

He laid me in his bed and crawled in next to me.

I cuddled up to him and closed my eyes.

Before I known it, I fell asleep in his arms..
