Accidental First Love ~A NovaHD fanfiction

Chapter 3

        As we approach the large white and brick house, I sigh a little glad to be home. I open the car door once we pull  up to the garage and reach a halt. I get out carefully, i hear the barks of Ein erupt from the front door. James runs to the front door and opens it making sure Ein stays in. I slowly make my way to the front step managing to get up. I enter the house. James tells Ein to stay back until i get on the couch.

        "Now you can go to him." James says with a pleasant smile. I pick up Ein because i have both my legs on the couch. James goes upstairs to get me a pillow for my head and my injured leg, he also went to get me a comfy blanket to use at night.

        "Hello Ein." I giggle as Ein comes up close to my face. I let Ein settle on my stomach. She closes her eyes and begins to sleep on my stomach. I sigh when James comes back down the stairs. He lifts me up lightly placing a pillow behind my back. He also lifts up my injured leg, slowly putting a pillow under it. He puts a blanket on top of me which lands over Ein. She squirms out and goes in between me and the couch. 

"I need to go record a few things. Do you want your laptop? or are you gonna sleep?" James asks cautiously.

"I'm gonna try to sleep." I sigh. "You can bring it down anyway." I shift a little getting comfortable on the couch. I close my eyes and drift of into sleep.

              I walk around an empty parking lot. Many strange cars parked everywhere. I hear yelling erupt near one of the cars. I hear loud gunshots. The sky is dark and no moon is to be seen. No stars are in the sky either. The only thing in the sky are what look like blood splatters. I hear many more gunshots than just the one. I then hear what had happened earlier that day. The yelling, the gunshots, the thud when the bullet grazed me and i fell. I see myself now, laying on the ground in what looks like a puddle of blood forming. I back up staring at the bleeding me. I back up and begin calling for help. All the cars are suddenly gone. No one is around to help me, to help my bleeding self. I collapse nearby where my vision of earlier me is dying...

        I awake with a jolt sitting up quickly. I tremble but i look at the time. It's 3am and i'm wide awake after that nightmare. I sigh looking to see Ein staring at me with wide eyes. I pet Ein gently swinging my legs over the side of the couch. I lean foreward placing my head into my hands. I feel tears form but nothing comes out. 

        "I need James..." I mutter to myself standing up on one leg. I limp heavily to the stairs. My hands shaking. Slowly i make my way up the stairs and down the hall to James' room. I left my crutches behind by accident as i make my way down the hall. "James?" I knock on his door lightly.

        "W-Wha?" I hear him perk up. I hear a thud. "FUCK!"

        "What happened, James?" I ask concerned about him.

        "Nothing, just hit my head on my headboard." I hear his feet hit the ground as he goes to answer the door. 

        "Can I s-sleep in your room? I-I want to be safe." I speak softly.

        "Come on in." He smiles rubbing the back of his head before lifting me up and taking me to his bed. I smile back at him, suddenly feeling safe in his strong arms. He places me down on one side of his bed. He then goes to lay in the other.

        I hear him sigh and mutter a few things sleepily as he drifts off.

        I lay on his soft matress, worn with many years of use, thinking about all of the past day and all the kindness he had showed towards me. I don't know how things are changing about his treatment for me, but things surely are changing.
