Chapter 21

No Turning Back- And then it happened

‘Avery! Avery! Stop, I’m here. You’re in my room.’ said an anxious and panicky voice.

I felt myself being shaken before my eyes finally burst open as I came face to face with Cole. I realized we were still in his bedroom and we were in limited clothing.

‘What happened? Are you okay?’ he asked as he only just began to settle.

‘Y-yeah…I must’ve just dozed off, after…’ I almost blushed at the remembrance of our previous moments.

He dismissed it instantly and instead chose to focus on what had just happened.

‘Avery; what happed? What did you see? I’ve never seen someone react to a nightmare such as you just did.’

‘It was nothing.’ I lied as my mind instantly recalled my previous nightmare. A shiver went down my spine at the simple thought of it.

‘Tell me, please.’ He pleaded.

‘I said…it.was.nothing.’ I said through clenched teeth in frustration.

‘Okay, okay, it’s alright. Come here.’ He gave up as he pulled me into him as I rested my head on his chest. He placed his arms around me as he held me tight. But I knew I wasn’t going to cry; things had changed, I wasn’t as fragile anymore.

‘Come on, I think we should get more clothes on. Then you can sleep here, it’s already eight o’clock anyway.’ Cole said as he hoisted himself up and off the bed. He threw on some more clothes before turning to me and handing me one of his shirts. I nodded my thanks before throwing it on too.

That night, sleep had deluded me as I lay next to Cole. He slept peacefully as stirred regularly. I watched as his chest slowly rose and fell in a peaceful motion. I was jealous of him right now. He was in his happy land, in the land where he could do all. As for me? I was afraid to enter my “happy land” as of late, it was anything but happy and peaceful. I had night terrors that scared me to the bone. But they weren’t just nightmares; some seemed so real, like actual memories.

I was afraid that if I should close my eyes, the terrors of my past would come back to me and I would be sucked into the unknown. And right now, I couldn’t handle that; even if that meant I would look like crap tomorrow.

The day’s events then came back to me.

I still didn’t know why Cole stormed out in Music, but I honestly didn’t want to know. I already had enough on my plate.

Then there was what had just happened. And even throughout my terrors, I still managed to blush at the thought.

And so I watched him sleep. It was a bit creepy if you thought about it but I had no choice. I was in minimal clothing, sleep deluding me while an incredibly sexy man lay down next to me in his bed.

What would you have done?

And so the night past, sleep deceiving me all the while.

**

It was five o’clock before I decided to finally get up. The room was still dark but it was light enough for me to see. I wasn’t too sure what I was to do now; I simply sat at the edge of the bed in thought. I didn’t want a shower as the only place I felt comfortable showering was in my dorm; even if this was my boyfriend’s room. Then I thought of an appropriate idea; something that would involve not waking Cole up.

I went in search for some appropriate clothes. I decided to just wear my tank top and that just left pants. I found his CCC’s and chucked them on.

I left the room as silently as I could before I went for a jog.

When sweet was pouring over me and my lungs were clenching for oxygen, I finally decided to stop. The sun had come up a while ago and so I thought best to go back and get my stuff before making my way to school.

When I entered Cole’s cabin, I realized the windows were open and the room was neatened. I also happened to notice that Cole himself was gone.

I heaved a sigh before gathering my things and retreating to my room.

After I dropped off my things and collected my school stuff; I was off to school; precisely, English.

As I walked in, I already saw Meghann, Kiren and Ashton awaiting me; as they usually did. But when I approached closer, I noticed more than before. There were slight changes in the scenery to this friendship.

For one, Ashton had his fingers intertwined with Meghann’s under the table. They were also whispering and were seated much more closely together than necessary.

They didn’t notice my approach so I simply turned to Kiren with an eyebrow raised. Kiren smirked before ushering me to my seat. I complied and sat beside him with a questioning look.

‘Don’t worry about them; they’ve just discovered the new love they share for each other. New relationships…what can you do?’ Kiren asked rhetorically with a small smile before turning back to the front, even though the teacher was nowhere to be seen.

‘Oh…why didn’t she tell me? When did this happen, anyway?’ I asked, completely not sure of myself.

‘She couldn’t tell you. For one, you apparently stormed off after music and for another; she wasn’t sure how you’d take it.” Kiren shrugged before turning his head towards the so-called couple and shaking his head with a smirk present on his face.

‘Oh.’ is all I managed to say.

I then looked over at Kiren and was taken back. His hair was messier than usual, looking greasy and unbrushed. His eyes were blood shot and had big bags under them. His skin looked strangely pale and sick looking. Kiren also looked a lot thinner.

Kiren must have caught my concerned gaze before he spoke. ‘Don’t worry about it, just been feeling sick lately.’

‘Oh.’ I answered again, not fully convinced but finding no other objection.

And so class passed, Kiren looking slightly dazed, Meghann and Ashton continuing with their passion, Meghann occasionally looking at me with an apologetic look and so and so.

**

And then it happened. I didn’t know how, I didn’t know why. My head spun with confusion. Everything went in a daze.

Kiren Jones’ POV

It was just after lunch when the four of us were making our way to Music. Meghann had kind of detached herself from Ashton, as much as humanly possible for her, as she wanted to chat to Avery. Ashton had a cute, smug look on him as though he had never had a girlfriend before. I wasn’t sure.

My head spun for a second, like it had been doing all day. I simply ignored it, like I usually did. My muscles continued to cramp and it was getting difficult to move; but I kept going.

I could feel the air around me; it felt cool and comforting on my bare skin. I was beginning to notice the smallest, most peaceful and beautiful things, when it happened.

It was as cliché as I had expected; the world spun before my eyes before I fell to the ground. I didn’t know what was happening; it was like somebody else overtook my body while I fell into an abyss of darkness and pain as unconsciousness enveloped me before swallowing me whole.
