Wide Open spaces

Chapter 16

“You let me sleep, I need to be in class.” He yells while pushing Patrick in the chest. 

“We aren’t even allowed to be in class today so get over.” Patrick yells back with just as much force. 

“Oi!” I yell.”You.” I say pointing at Dylan. “An you!” I say pointing at Patrick. “Need to shut the hell up and get over the fact that he let you sleep in!” I yell over both boys.”You, Dylan, you need sleep. You don’t always need to be on guard ok. Everything will be fine. If someone needs your help they wont be afraid to ask. And you, Patrick, need to respect his wishes and wake him up when he needs to go to classes. Ok good.” I say. Both boys look at me and I just lay back down in bed and close my eyes. I feel someone lay down on either side on me and then they both hug me. I roll my eyes and try my best to hug them back. Even though I have known these guys for a few days, I feel like I have know them for a life time.

“We are sorry Bi.”Patrick says.

“Forgive us?” Dylan says. I laugh lightly and forgive them. They both hug me again and then sit up. They can be such children.

“So what are we going to do today, well the rest of today.” Dylan questioned.

“We should take Bibi to the nurse because Mr. Reed said.” Patrick says

“Well then it is decided. Bibi go get changed. We will be waiting outside your door. Just come out when you are ready.” I nod my head and the boys walk outside. I grab a pair of jean shorts, white tank top, a pink flannelette shirt and thongs(the shoes...Flips flops?!) I change into the cloths and walk out the door. 

“Ready?” Patrick asks. I nod.

“I’m ready.” We make our way down to the infirmary, once we get there Julie comes out to greet us.

“Hello Abigail. Boys.” She says nodding at us. “What can I do for you today?” 

“Noah just wanted you to check on my ankle to see how it is going.” I say. She guides me to a chair and I sit in it. She checks my ankle, moving it in different directions and putting pressure on it. It doesn’t hurt as much as it used to but there still is that pain that I get when I put a little too much pressure on it.

“You can probably get off the crutches in about three to four days.” I nod my head and thank her. I hop out of the infirmary and Dylan says that he has got something to show me. Of course he tells Patrick what it is and he also thinks it is a good Idea to show me. We walk for a good ten minutes before we come to a stop at the edge of what I assume is the school grounds.

“Only Patrick and I know about this so you have to keep it quiet and tell no one.” Dylan tells me.

“Ok, what is it?” I ask.

“This.” Dylan steps back and lets me see what is behind him. My mouth gapes at what I see, it is a beautiful sight. I wouldn’t think that anything like this could or would exist in a place like this, especially with the city so close by. 

“You like it?” Patrick questions. 

“It’s Beautiful. Did you guys find it or make it?

“A bit of both you could say. The structure was always here we just well, made it more modern and new. This is where we come when we just want to get away.” Dylan tell me. I nod my head. Yes this is defiantly somewhere I could go when things get to hard and I just want to get away.

 Dylan held up the gap in the fence that was covered by a bush and I crawled through. They led the way to the entrance and I climbed the stairs once we got to the top we over looked the everything. The water that was near the tree house feel into a small pond at the bottom of the waterfall. The tree house was massive and it was defiantly my new favourite place at this school. We sat in the tree house talking until the sun started to escape behind the trees. We made our way back to the school and by the time we go there the sun was now replaced with the moon and stars.

“Promise me when I am off crutches and can walk we are going to the tree house so I can walk across the bridge and go to the other side of the tree house.” I say looking at the boys.

“Promise.” They both reply at the same time. I smile and we continued making our way to my bedroom. The boys drop me off at my room and then leave. I sit on my bed and then realise that I haven’t eaten. I roll my eyes and get off my bed. I close my door behind me and start to make my way down the hall. The halls are filled with numerous students trying to get from one class to another and then there is me, trying to find the cafeteria. I wander the halls continuously before I realise I am lost. I sit on the ground, my legs tired from walking.

“You ok?” A deep voice questions. I look up to see a guy with brown hair, the longer I look at him the more I think about who he looks like. Then it dawns on me, he looks like Jay. 

“Hey? I asked are you ok?” He says in an obnoxious tone. I stand up and look at him in the eyes. He doesn’t have the same green ones Jay but his are gray pits of nothing. 

“What is it to you?” I reply. I start to walk to walk away but he grabs onto my arm and pulls me back to face him. My crutches fall to the ground and I accidentally put pressure on my injured foot. I hiss in pain but don’t show any other signs that it hurt. He pushes me up against the wall and holds me off the ground by my neck.

“I asked you a question and I expect you to answer it without the attitude.” He shouts at me. I glare at him but don’t say anything back. His grip gets stronger around my neck and it is starting to get harder to breath. 

“Answer me!” His voice projects around the empty hallways making it echo. I still don’t answer him. Right about now I couldn’t care a less if he kills me, my dad is gone and soon my mother is to. She told me she wont live past a few months. I can feel myself getting light headed and spots dance in front of my vision. I close my eyes and then I feel a sharp pain in my ribs. I don’t open my eyes I just let the pain take over my body, before I know it my vision dims and all I can hear is a light hum in my ears.

A/N: So i swear that this is like a record for like adding two chapters in less than 2 weeks :P anyway. I will hopefully be uploading more because school is finally over and it is summer ^__^ Whoo! another reason for more uploads is because I am still on crutches for the first week of the summer holidays so I will be able to write because I will have nothing else to do. SO enjoy and I hope you are liking this book (: Stay Happy ans Smile (: (: (: (: (: (: (: (:
