chapter 38 ~ low key regret coming back
ADRIENNE

Euphoria.

That's all I felt these past few days.

Should I be sad or in pain? Probably.

But it was hard to feel anything except ecstasy sleeping in a bed all day.

A certain boy named Alec Raux who spent all his time sitting next to me and holding my hand was a plus as well.

He was always next to me: either talking about his day, bringing me good food, or just singing soppy love songs. There was hardly a time when he wasn't by my side.

The happiness I felt was ridiculous.

It felt as if everything was finally coming to a happy end.

At least that was until I got discharged.

My parents, the doctors, and Alec agreed that it would be best to discharge me a week before senior year. That way I would still be able to experience prom, graduation, and say goodbye to all my friends.

I disagreed with them of course.

Sure the senior hype was good, but all I wanted to do was sleep and hold Alec's hand.

Not go back to school and see all these faces that I hate.

So as I stand in front of my high school with Alec next to me, I could already sense the stares and gossip I would receive the moment I walked in.

"Hey, are you okay?" Alec's voice brings me out of my internal monologue.

"Y-yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I stutter, tilting my head up to give Alec an uneven smile.

"Maybe because you're turning pale, and you're squeezing my hand so hard that I can barely feel the blood." He says. I immediately drop his hand and miss the warmth.

"I guess I just wish I could be sleeping on my comfortable bed rather than spending another minute with these snakes." I scowl.

"It won't be that bad." Alec chuckles.

"You wanna bet?" 

"Not really."

"Coward."

"No, I'm only trying to prevent your humiliating defeat," He answers, "Now, go. Make sure you hold your head high and let everyone know you're the queen."
