After blanket after blanket was being wrapped around him. It wasn't warm enough. He could still feel the cold eating at his flesh

Thank goodness his mother were a nurse. She seen this before, not on her own son though

Hypothermia

It came from being in cold weather or water for long periods of time. In some cases, it lead to death. The human body temperature could drop to as low as 50°F,  meaning the chance of survival  were low

Mrs.Rodgers dressed in Axel warm clothing. Being sure that his head, torso, and feet were covered immediately

Axel shifts in his sleep, catching his mother's attention

"Axel sweetie, are you okay?" She reached to touch his arm but he flinched away

"No! Don't touch me!" Axel screamed, pressing his back further into the bed

"Axel, calm down honey. It's just me" She tried again but this he jumped up off the bed

"I said don't touch me!" Axel backs away trips over a chair

He lands painfully on his back. His mom rushed to his side, lifting him from the ground

"Get off me! Help, somebody help!"

"Axel, what's gotten into you?"

She frowned from her spot and watched as he pushed himself in a corner. Axel shivers and rocks back and forth. He repeatedly mumbled words that couldn't be made out

Mr.Rodgers soon walks in with Jc, seeing the scene before hand

"What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know, he just screams every time I touch him" Mrs.Rodgers replied

It was as if they weren't in the room. Axel couldn't hear anything. It all started coming back to him. The locker room, the humiliation, everything. His body felt completely disgusting. Axel wished it would have never happened

"Axel please at least sit on the bed with some warm blankets, you're still freezing and be careful"

Axel hesitantly stood from his spot and clumsy found the bed. He wrapped himself back in the comforting blankets , not daring to say anything. Axel wasn't ready to talk

"Axel, did something happen at school that we don't know about? Coach Brad told us that he found you in the boys locker, cuffed to one the showers. You could have died from Hypothermia"

Knocks*

Everyone turned over to Alyana. She sits next to Axel, who moved further away. This causes her to frown. Has she done something wrong? Did Axel not want her there

"I heard what happened. I wanted to make sure you're okay" She touched his arm

"Don't touch me! I'm fine" he sneezed violently

"Axel, I promise I'm going to find the people responsible for this. What they've done is not something I consider a prank. They could have killed you. Soon as I find them, I'm reporting them to the police" Alyana said firm

Hopefully Alyana could find them. Some of their voice sounded familiar. Could it have been the boys from the team or maybe football players. Anybody at the school could have done it. But who?
