Waking up in the nurses station with a huge headache, wondering how she got in here. Then remembering, oh right, fainted. Opening her eyes and closing them back again because of the brightly lit space. Feeling a cold compression cloth on her head, a sigh escaped her lips. Sitting up fast, swaying side to side. Thats when she felt his hands on her arms, supporting her.
"Take it easy!" His voice sounded deep and clipped. "Who are you" She coughed, opening her eyes to look up at him, his hands were so big on her little arms. "Does it matter?" He mumbled and made her lay down before removing his hands. She thought to herself he is a bit grumpy. She grumbled something under her breath.
He sighed softly, sitting back in the chair near the cot "I'm, Kory Zander and I'm sorry I was so rude." Petal shrugged her shoulders,"Don't be sorry. I guess you have the right to be. Im Patience St. Clair but everyone calls me Petals.” Kory laughed, " I wonder why they call you that, Miss pink hair." A smile playing on the corner of his mouth. She grinned "Don't judge Skyscraper."
They were laughing when the nurse came in. "Looks like you are feeling better Miss Petal and Mr. Zander you were suppose to go back to class!" Petal blinked looking at Kory but Kory was looking out the window. "She fainted when I walked in the room. I wanted to make sure she was okay." His voice held a lot of concern and Petal didn’t know why. Blinking shocked Petal looked at Kory then the nurse. "If you say so Mr. Zander. Its time for you to go Petals. I'm guessing Mr. Zander will take you home." The nurse gave him a stern stare and he nodded. Petal raised her eyebrows. She questioned him after the nurse left. "Why didn't you go back to class? How come so concerned...
... middle of paper ...
...e he turned to her."I don't lie. I was raised not too and is anyone home?" Petal shook her head."They only come home on the weekends. Want to come in and in visit?" Kory chuckled softly."Yes, I want to know why you get faded. You seem like you have a very rich family." She laughed."If you only knew."
He walked around to her side and helped her out. She blinked shocked, most guys just let you get out yourself."Thank you." She blushed and looked down. She went to unlock the door and he was right behind her with her stuff.She turned towards him."I’m sorry for the mess but I'm the only one that cleans."
Kory shrugged."Don't worry about it. I don't care what your house looks like." She smiled.'You are a little too sweet for you own good, Mr. Skyscraper."He laughed."If you say so Mrs. Pink hair." Petal grinned and opened the front door, she gestured for Kory to walk in.
She brought gifts to the kitchen table and laid out her plans. Kelley thought it was wonderful having Kelley home again. She was so happy the next few days, happier than she had experienced since the car accident. Leah spent hours with Kelley showing her pictures of places she had visited or lived at and of course her new Italian boyfriend. They would watch movies together and Kelley would do some exercises to help her hand or her leg. Leah asked some questions about the facemask, the Jobst glove, and the exercises she had to do . Kelley asked Leah what their mother had told her about the accident. Kelley said she said “It was a dark and rainy night. About the exit and all. The guy with the truck. She doesn’t remember the impact, or the seconds right before it. Only that when she came to and smelled the gas she knew you had to get out before the car exploded. She said it all happened so fast.” Kelley told her mom that she didn’t have to worry about being home all the time with her because Leah was at home now. Two days later Kelley was dwelling on it when she sat down the drawing she was working on. Leah had gone to work, so Kelley was home alone. She then picked up the hand putty and squeezed it
“That’s so sweet. No guy has ever gone through so much trouble for me.” She felt her eyes welling up.
The next morning Anton would get ready for school where he would start walking down the small pathway made of pebbles, there would be a mysterious pair of students stalking behind him, Anton would not notice until one of them jumps on Anton as the motion of him being tackled. Anton and the stranger would fall to the ground, Anton would quickly take a glance as he would seem to be ready to fight back but he then notices that they were all his friends that just wanted to do a quick jump. “Marie! You scared me half to death!” Marie would giggle as she helps herself off the ground as Christoph helps Anton up as well. “Well, Anton you shouldn’t be walking in the woods without being on guard! There was a guy murdered here after all!” Anton would laugh awkwardly “Where did you hear that?” Christoph responds “It’s not true, I made that part up” They would all then let out a small chuckle after the long awkward
... asks (324), in hopes that she has settled enough to finally talk about this - to tell him that she wants to go through with it. He is hurting and confused as much as she is, but is clinging to the things that he can tangibly comprehend: the girl and their life together, just the two of them. The shadow in the valley on the other side of the station, blanketing their future, is the darkness of their decision - the thought and memory of their child that will follow them the rest of their lives; however, it is a life with hope, in his mind, as opposed to the barren alternative. All she needs to do is believe with him that it will be alright, and believe in the love between them. "I feel fine," she said. "There's nothing wrong with me. I feel fine" (324). He will get no such belief today, apparently - by either his love, or those who are reading his tale in this class.
“not to worry come with me into the village and we will get you something to eat.” she said and helped her brother to his feet allowing h...
For a few days after she seemed recovered, happy to see me and her mood was livened. But the following week, I passed by Annie’s room again. ================
I shook my head, ashamed for invading my friends’ tragedies with memories I conjured up by their descriptions of them. I was still staring at Alice’s relaxed posture. The frown on her face was evident even while she rested unconscious with wrinkles near her seventeen year old eyes. I could still see the scar from stitches. Vesper shifted under the blankets on Alice’s couch. He was missing a father while Sebastian and I were missing a mother. But Alice was missing the two people that had given her life and left while she was living it. A trust fund was left in their
“Thank you,” she said politely and waited for him to disappear again. He didn’t. Instead he lingered awkwardly in the doorway like a stray cat. “Is…” Madame Giry began hesitantly, “Is there anything else I can help you with?”
A slight smile crept its way on to her face, her eyes slowly opening as she stepped inside the small caravan that she assumed served as his workshop and possible home. “Very homey.” She stated in a soft voice, her head turning to look at Clopin. “Though it is a bit tiny. Though I guess it really doesn’t have to be that big.” She turned her head from him, her eyes scanned the new surrounding around her. “After all I assume it's only you that stay’s here? Which would mean you really don’t need a big space.” She tilted her head off to the side and ventured more into it. She only came to a stop when he motioned for her to take a seat.
"I better be going now. I want to get home in time to talk to your dad. He was wondering how you two were settling in", he said looking at Preston. Then at me. Preston looked at the floor and then at me. She was starting to tear up.
After a while of talking he decided it was time to go home, after apologizing for the broken door, and the food he ate the night before, she insisted that it was no problem and that they were very glad to have helped. She walked out the door to get her husband.
“Oh no!” She exclaimed as she pushed the door open. “Do we need to go back?”
“So, so beautiful. Marked, but even in this dirty basement, she was so clean. I was all about her life and I realized the details from the files wouldn't be enough.”
On the kitchen floor he set her down, held her in his arms, and kissed her. “Thanks.”
I stood there in amazement. A tingle surged throughout my whole body. It was a rush of excitement I had never felt before in my life. When my eyes hit her angelic little body, they froze and I couldn't think or acknowledge anything else around me. The world seemed to stop, hold its place in time, just for that perfect moment. While she slept I stared at this precious little angel. My hands quivered as I slowly reached down to touch her little fingers and feel the softness of her skin. I ran the tips of my fingers very gently across her smooth face, and right away, I fell in love. Then my brother said, "I can wake her up so you can hold her." I was ecstatic, I was finally going to meet her! As I held her, I stared into her gorgeous blue eyes and knew instantly that I would love and cherish her forever with all my heart.
