OCEAN EYES

Chapter Nine

Two weeks after..

Two weeks after the day i passed out in school, my parents found out about William, and they didn't find out in the good way

And they grounded me after that, for a really long time

Of course they would, i didn't blame them or anything, because the way they found out wasn't great at all

It was sort of embarrassing, and dramatic too, i had to make a scene out of it

When i woke up that morning, i knew that i had to do something about William soon because things weren't going well with him at all, he became paler and lost some weight, his face seemed so tired and he spoke less..

I kept my promise, i kept doing the laundry for him, cooking for him and i let him use my bathroom whenever he wanted, and i wished that i could do more

Sometimes i struggled in sleeping, because i felt guilty for some reason

Guilty for having a place to stay in and William didn't?

Guilty because i had people who actually cared about me while William didn't have anyone?

Guilty because i could help him and didn't even try to

Jason's car parked in the parking lot, i thanked him and for the ride and headed straight to my locker

" see you guys later okey?" i waved at him and Jessa, and i hurried inside the building, students were pushing each other, bumping in me, for a second i felt like i was in an animal farm and not a school

I kept pushing to get to my locker but then i bumped into someone and lost my balance, i was ready to hit the floor but i didn't..

No i didn't fall

I looked up at William, i knew it would be him because no one's touch could make me feel that way, my body recognized him way before me

The look he gave me caught my breath, than he let go of me and walked away without saying a single word, and it did hurt me a bit because i wasn't expecting him to ignore me completely, i knew that he had trouble on his own, and that was enough for me to understand that when he didn't feel like talking he wouldn't talk, and i knew that I should give him some space yet i kept feeling upset and hurt

I know i shouldn't, but i did

I haven't seen him for two days, i didn't know where he was, and when i went to give him his breakfast this morning i didn't find him

I was worried to death..

Something else caught my attention

Something bad caught my eye

He was bruised, William was bruised

I turned my heels and walked after him, the hallways emptied a little because the bell rang and i was grateful for that, i followed him to where he was heading

I immediately knew that he was heading to his locker, and by the time i reached after him, the hallway was empty

I was grateful for that..

When he was about to open his locker, i greeted him with a smile, thinking that i was doing some sort of good thing, he nodded his head and kept looking through his stuff

For the last few weeks I've known William, I found out that he was a quiet person, he didn't talk unless he had to, he didn't like talking when he's not in a good mood and he surly didn't like talking in the morning

Usually when i give him his box of breakfast in the morning, i do it without saying a word, because every time i greet him, he just don't reply, and that's how i found out that he didn't like talking
