Heroism Makes Friends

Zachary's Pov
It was just a moment a go where me and the boys were standing in the booth and suddenly were pushed aside. It was quiet fast, too fast for us to realise what just happened. All I saw was Eleanor in front of me on the ground and a big wooden log that supported the conical structure of the booth on her. Everything went silent, when I came back to my senses I rushed towards her. The log was heavy, "Hey what are you staring idiots!" They were quiet shocked too. Then I saw Levi , he looked a lot frightened.... I could see his body trembling. He didn't move from his place, just stared at Ella who lied there unconscious.

The rest of the guys and I picked the log and pushed it aside. Soon Caleb called for ambulance and I picked Eleanor up and rushed out. Isabelle was on the phone , but the moment she saw me and Eleanor in my arms, she rushed towards us. "What the hell happened Zachary!?" She asked, but I don't have time to answer any questions now. I need to get her medical assistance. The impact of the heavy wooden log wasn't anything less... I was silently praying in my head... I don't really believe in God, but this time I really wanted a Miracle to happen.

The ambulance arrived soon, which was a relief. The doctors quickly took her in. I didn't ya anything, I wasn't in the state of speaking, seeing the log fall on her in front of me was enough to make my heart drop. I was sitting in the ambulance and suddenly my phone buzzed, it was Archer. I scoffed, and switched my phone off. For once I wanted to there for her, I know it's a selfish move, but I really wanted to. Slowly intertwining our hands together I rested my head at the edge of the stretcher.

Eleanor was taken into the emergency room the moment we reached the hospital. They knew I was a Kingstone and for once I really took the advantage of being one.

"Zach!" I heard my name being called. I shoot my head up to see, wait this isn't what I was expecting.

Eleanor's Pov

Everything was blank, but I felt comfortable somehow, but suddenly I realised that my eyes were closed. I slowly bought my hand to my head, trying to massage it a little...

Lights! These lights... but wait last I remember myself in the confession booth. Adjusting my eyes to the light... I looked around to be in a room, pretty good room... wait I see those pipes n all around... WHO BOUGHT ME TO HOSPITAL!? ...

From the bed I could see a couple of people outside my room, I could recognise anyone as the windows weren't completely transparent. One of them met my eyes and rushed inside, I was waiting to see a particular face, but it wasn't him.

"Are you alright Eleanor?" Caleb asked, as shocking as it sounds, it's true. It was Caleb, beside him stood Aiden and Dylan, while Levi and Zach were standing on the opposite side.

"But you-'' I was cut off mid sentence by Levi. " Are you really that crazy with that stunt you pulled!?" He asked with a frustrated look playing on his face. "But I-'' and again before I could say anything they spoke "Eleanor ... You scared the shit out of me".. this time it was Zach and he held my hand while saying it. A small blush took over my face.

"Let me speak!... I am Fine ... just a little back pain and headache" I said, all of them didn't dare to make eye contact. "We are sorry Eleanor" Aiden spoke, taking me completely by surprise. I was blinking my eyes, and maybe once thought to my self that maybe I am still knocked out unconscious, but the pain in the head and back was real... so I am not dreaming .

"We all have treated you like shit, and you saved us today...Brave of you and to be honest I don't think we will do that for each other... you know we are jerks right" Dylan spoke and chuckled at the end making me laugh a little. "Yes you all are jerks... but I guess what I did was humanity" I shrugged, which kind of doubled my back pain... but I guess it's fine. I smiled at all of them. I know they will forget this and will go back to ignoring me to-

" Let's be friends Eleanor" Caleb said, breaking my train of thoughts . "What!?" I half screamed... but trust me I was on,y surprised. This is new... except Isabelle, Levi and Zach I have no friends. This is new to me. Like very!

"Well Ella-'' I see Archer who stopped on the door seeing all GUYS in the room with one GIRL. His face showed complete combination of confusion and irritation. "We were just leaving Mr. Kingstone" said Aiden. Huh? What's up with "Mr. Kingstone" . The boys looked scared of Archer, like he is some dangerous mafia except Zach who looked rather annoyed which made me raise my eyebrows at him.

They all left and it was me and Mr. Confused and Irritated face. "How are you feeling?" He asked while taking my both hands in his. Oh soo it's in the Kingston traits . I sighed and held his hand, "I am fine Archer", I said giving him a weak smile. He didn't say anything, just sat there right in front of me, just staring at our hands. The room was filled with silence, and I didn't dare say anything. There was a continuous frown on his face, as if he was in a deep thought, a slight guilt on his face.... What was this guilt face for. I was confused, but I didn't want to interrupt his thoughts, so instead of asking anything, I just bought my forehand and rested it on his. "I don't know what you are thinking, nor I know what's going on in that evil head of yours, but whatever it is ... it will be fine" , but the moment I said that, he stood up harshly and walked out of the room.

What was that about ?
