Felix's POV
I sighed,
twirling the pasta around the fork in my hand before shoving it into my mouth.
I chewed it in silence as my father and mother discussed their next mission
which was apparently a big deal since their conversation has lasted the whole
dinner so far. They didn't even bother trying to include me in any form or way,
only chatting as if they were the only two people there.
Well, I
couldn't really blame them. After all, working for the government as spies
wasn't exactly like working for McDonalds. The job had pretty big shoes to fill
and it came with a lot of responsibilities that required lots of attention.
But of
course me being their son, it would be nice I have a simple "How are you,
sweetie?" Hell, even a "Hi" was better than this, but I never complained.
They do work day and night just to provide for me and pay the bills, so I
really couldn't say anything.
I inaudibly
sighed again, the food in front of me beginning to look less appetizing by the
second since I was rather full. Which in my case, was a great excuse to leave
to my room where I could just...think.
"Mom,"
I spoke up. The chatter seemed to seize instantly and their stares were on me in
a flash. I wanted to shrink into my seat and disappear, but I sat, unfazed.
"May I
go to my room?" I asked politely, just the way I was taught to in the
table.
My mother
frowned. "You hardly touched your food, plus, we were about to tell a
fascinating story of a mission we once took!" She squealed in excitement.
I looked
over to my father who nodded in agreement while eating his pasta in
satisfaction. I mentally rolled my eyes. "No, I'm full and I'd rather go
to sleep after all the work I've done today." I lied smoothly.
I didn't
enjoy lying to my parents, but it what I had to do to escape hour-long stories
that, in reality, weren't very interesting. And anyways, it's not like it's a
total lie, I did do some tiring things today, they just weren't there to see
how much I actually did which was a bonus to never seeing them.
It was a
bonus because they had to give in to the lie, had to let me go up to my room to
be alone, but in peace.
My mother's
brows furrowed, but she excused me with the only chore of cleaning my dish. I
boredly stood up, walked over to the sink and washed my dish before bounding up
the stairs to my room. A genuine smile found its way onto my face as I flopped
onto my bed, inhaling the fresh scent of my newly cleaned room deeply. I loved
it so much, it was worth the work.
I flipped
onto my side and gazed at the window that was ajar, allowing small breezes to
come in here and there. My eyes bugged out at the dark sky, fascinated how the
balls of light shone bright like diamonds. I slowly sat up and made my way to
window, sitting on the couch-like windowsill. A content sigh left my lips as I
hugged my knees and breathed the cool air. My eyes gazed out the window, just
staring at the beautiful of the sky.
But
suddenly, I felt something hard yet smooth under foot. Curious, I moved my foot
to see the familiar book titled ''Science of Dimensions : Theories and New
Data.'' I couldn't help but grin as I flipped through it and noticed similar
books scattered around my sitting figure and floor. A couple of them being ones
I've written down my own theories and drew mini blue-prints as well.
Some people
may say that I was obsessed with the topic of Dimension science since I studied
and can recite everything there is about it by heart, and I couldn't agree
more. It was a need to know all of it and I couldn't help but give in to the
need. It was so fascinating to think there could be other worlds out there,
maybe better lifestyles and societies than in my world, maybe even better than
mine...
I shook my
head and set the book down, looking out the window with the new emotion of
despair.
All of my
dreams of building a portal can be fulfilled, especially in this time and my
family's wealth, but as much as I ached to be the first to succeed...I couldn't.
My parents hate and forbid me of studying, dreaming, hell, even talking about
this topic. Had it been back then when I was a child and the government was its
old self, they would've supported me with no doubts that I'll succeed. But with
the change of government and society and their new-found jobs, they turned
against my dreams.
I never knew
where the sudden hostility came from, all I knew is that I no longer had any
supporters, no one at all. But even so, that never stopped me from dreaming,
cramming all the information into my head, and planning.
It was very
hard to do it behind my parent's backs, even when I was daydreaming in class of
it and the teacher would bust me out to my parents, but I managed and my goal
can't be any closer as it is now. The only restraints that held me into place
and a standstill being my parents...
I yawned and
rubbed my eyes, tiredness beginning to settle. My legs carried me to me back to
my bed where I wormed my way under the pile of covers and warmth.
When I
finally settled did I realize that I didn't change to pajamas or brush my
teeth, but there was no way in hell that I was leaving this heavenly bed. I
brushed off the nagging thought and closed my eyes.
But before I
drifted off to sleep, one clear thought found its way into my hazy mind: I'll
be the first to transport to another dimension, possibly live there and start
over!.....One day
Meet Cryaotic
Cry's P.O.V
I sat in my
chair... I love this chair... It's a nice chair.... It's ruined a little... You
know, fucked up. But this place is fucked up! There's always trash and
sometimes dead people mixed on the ground, and smoke always filled the air from
those horrible factories, and what makes it worse is everyone fights to
survive... I went over to my little bed to lay down, yes little... This place
was pretty small, but had everything I needed. I lived in an apartment complex,
well not really a apartment but you know, a lot of rooms. I tend to stick with
small thing, you know, best way to not get robbed. The bigger your house is the
worst your life is. Unless you got some thugs to help you and kill the people
who try to trespass.
I laughed to
myself and got back up and looked out the window, the clouds always covered the
sky, along with the smoke. No one smiles that much, but everyone does at least
once. I fixed my mask to make it lined with my face and features, it sucked to
be here sometimes. I wonder sometimes if there is a world... A world everyone
smiles, a world where this is hardly any child abuse, rape, murder...
It always
crossed my mind and I can never help but think...
That there
is some place, that is worth the time to have fun, not work so hard, laugh and
sing along with your friends! I laughed to myself again and got up again, to
make some coffee. Looking around... I've noticed, I'm so lonely... Maybe I
could find someone, someone who cares about me, once again laughing to myself
like an idiot I took a sip of the fresh coffee. I never put milk in it or
sugar, I just make it normal. It helps me calm down and relax.
I looked
down to see the little waves the form every time you tip it to one side or the
other. And I am not really a grown up, I'm eighteen. My family is uh, gone...
Forever, well let’s not get into a sob story! A knock on the door ran through
the house causing me to jump a little in surprise.
I ran over
and opened the door to see my friend! Red, Russ, Snake, and Scott, smiles where
plastered on their faces while I stepped back to let them in. They're nice
people, when you get to know them. But all of us have done bad things and is
known for it "Hey Cry!!" Russ greeted as the rest of them waved
"Hey guys, what brought you to come here?" They all looked at each
other then back at me "Actually no reason" Snake said, his voice was
dark and can get very scary sometimes.
I nodded and
grinned "Want some coffee?" They all nodded in response as I walked
in the little kitchen area and make a batch for my friends. They all came in
and got a cup and then we all sat down on the floor talking, it was nice to see
my friends happy and excited. I sighed and laid on the floor while everyone was
talking, then the walking stopped... Everything was silent, I was blocking
everyone, everything out... I closed my eyes to think about someone that can
care about me, someone who would be willing to love me... The one....
Will I ever
find the one? Well I mean.... You never know, maybe I'll die alone.... I felt a
sharp pain in my side and got up quickly "Hey Cry what's the matter with
you!" Russ sharply spoke, he kicked my side...
"Nothing
is wrong with me what's wrong with you!"
"Wrong
with me?!?!"
"GUYS
STOP!"
We all faced
Red who looked very annoyed and tired "Come, get along! Jeez we just got
here and we already have two of you bickering like five year olds!!" She
tuck the red hair in her face behind her hair and fixed her glasses "It's
the end of the world" Snake said and we laughed at his little joke, he was
a one liner guy. We sat there talking, I took a sip of my now cold coffee as
Scott was telling us about how he got into a fight today "So you know that
Jim guy right? Yeah well that little slut came in and just threw a punch at my
FACE!" He pointed to a little red mark and kept talking "It didn't
her much, but it left a little mark. He was pretty damn weak. So I came in and
swung at him making him fall to the ground, and we got into a fight blah blah
and I won!"
Every
laughed a little of how excited he sound when he said "I WON!" God he
can be so stupid sometimes. I smiled and looked over at a little book sitting
in the corner, to lazy to get up I crawled to get it. I looked inside it to see
my old dream book, where I kept my dreams in so I wouldn't forget them... I went
to the last page and read it "He was smiling, lust filled his eyes... I
didn't know who the hell he was but damn was he sexy, sandy blonde hair, blue
eyes and a nice body shape... He kissed me passionately and licked up and down
my neck making me shiver, I felt the corner of his mouth form into a smile as
he placed a few kissed up and down my neck "Ready to have some fun?
Baby?" He asked, and that is all I remember" I remember this dream,
it was about a week ago... I wonder who this man is.
"Cry
what are you looking at?"
"Oh I'm
just reading!!"
I set the
back down and went back to my friends to talk. I wonder who that was...
Dreams
Felix's POV
"Sweetie,
are you sure you will be okay for the time being?" My mother asked for the
thousandth time. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms in annoyance, watching
her zip up her last minute items into her purse.
Seriously,
why has it been so difficult for me to tell my parents to leave already?
Usually thy would've been out the door at the notice of a new mission, only
leaving a note as their substitution for the short amount of a few weeks or a
month.
I should be
happy at the sudden attention, but now that I have it right now, it was getting
old way too fast.
I quickly
nodded my head at my mother's recent question as we slowly made our way towards
the door where my father awaited.
"Yes,
mother, yes. I'll be fine." The slightly smaller woman frowned and continued
asking questions as if I just said "No, I'll be horrible and trash the
place while screwing the whole entire population on the couch." I
continuing answering each question thrown at me as I basically shooed my mother
out of her room.
"Yes,
mom, I'll be sure to clean the-" My words cut off as I focused on the unusual
amount of luggage next to door. There was always the huge navy blue and purple
bags sitting on the wood flooring, but no, there was at least six suitcases
next to my father's feet.
"Uh,
guys...?" I asked, confusion written all over my face.
"Son..."My father spoke up, walking over to me and placing a hand on
my shoulder. "This mission might last longer than we hoped."
I raised an
eyebrow. "Exactly how long?" A sigh of despair left my father's
mouth. "A year..."
Icy blue
eyes widened as I switched my gaze back-and-forth, only receiving the same
solemn expression from my parents. "A-are you serious?" I choked out.
My mother
nodded softy and walked over to hug me, her blonde head barely reaching
underneath my chin. I accepted the warmth and hugged her back. I looked over to
my father to see his gaze down to the floor, most-likely deep in thought.
"Felix."
My father said as he lifted his head up to me; icy blue eyes meeting each other
in sadness. My mom stays in place as I listened to my father's little speech.
"I'm
sorry that we haven't been the best of parents and I apologize for it to take
us this long to figure out." He began as he slowly walked over to my
mother and I.
"Your
mother and I never seemed to think you needed us though. As a young boy you
were always so independent and smart, so when the government changed we decided
to take the job because we knew you'd be fine without us around as much. I
guess we just took that too far and never pay any real attention to you."
Tears welled
up in my eyes as he hugged us, making our own little group hug. I felt my
mother's tears staining my shirt, but I didn't mind at all. I think we all
needed this. We were all misunderstanding each other this whole time. My
parents didn't abandon me, they thought I didn't need them as much anymore. I
wasn't as strong as they thought, despite being my age, I always wanted to be
loved and cared for like a small child, but not over-doing it either.
But sooner
or later, we had to pull apart at the huge horn coming from outside. I sighed
and gave them a nod, assuring them that I'll be fine; especially since this
understanding and sort of bonding moment happened. My mother quickly kissed my
cheek and skipped towards the entrance while my father gave me another a hug
before following my hyper mom out the door.
I waved and
smiled at them as they slowly accommodated their luggage and settled in the
car. My mother grinned at me as they slowly moved down the street and out of my
sight. A sigh left my mouth as I walked back inside and shut the door behind
me.
This was
going to be the longest year ever.
Yawning, I
checked on the time on my phone. Ah, two-in-the-afternoon, the time I would
usually be cleaning. I shrugged and flopped onto the couch. What? I wasn't
going to clean. Besides, I have a whole year to do them, there was no rush at
all.
My eyes
drifted close at the softness of the couch and I slipped into a sleep full of
dreams.
* * *
My eyes
snapped open and I instantly sat up, rubbing my sore eyes. As soon as the
blurriness faded out of my eyesight, I immediately stood and ran upstairs to my
room. I kneeled beside my mess of books and notebooks and blindly tried
searching for my notebook specifically for this type of thing.
My hand soon
brushed over it and I picked it up, flicking through to find a blank page, a
pen in my mouth as I did so. Ink met paper as soon as I found one and I quickly
scribbled down the dream I just had in as much detail as I could remember.
My messy
handwriting was barely legible, but it was enough to keep me sane, so I quickly
set the blue pen down and stared at my writing. I read it over, as well as
imagining my dream as I went along, my red cheeks being noted also.
A masked man
with the most luscious lips and softest hair I could ever imagine was kissing
me as I sat on his lap. His lips had found their way to my neck where they
sucked and I couldn't help but let out a moan.
"Do you
like that, Felix?" He whispered huskily against my neck. I nodded
furiously and he chuckled pulling away and facing me with his expressionless
mask.
"If you
want more, I suggest you come find me."
I tilted my
head in utter confusion. "Don't worry, you know exactly how." He
whispered before kissing me and that's when I woke up.
I plopped
onto my bed and stared at the pages in confusion. For one, I was not gay, so
why did I enjoy it? And secondly, what did he mean by 'come find me'? What the
hell is that supposed to mean?
I sighed,
looking up at my ceiling, giving my recent dream a lot more attention compared
to my others.
I mean, was
there really any point to overthinking a dream that my twisted mind could've
easily conjured up? It made no sense in finding a person that most-likely does
not exist. And it does not make sense that I was kissing a guy. I haven't had a
girlfriend in a while, so that can be a reasonable answer to all this.
Yeah, that
makes tons of sense.
I let out a
breath of relief I didn't know I was holding in before sitting up and looking
around.
Well crap,
now I have to clean.
So Lonely
Cry's P.O.V
I danced
around my a small house and hummed, cleaning my place just because I was bored,
honestly I hardly ever clean anything... I kind of just leave my mess scattered
on the floor, and I never really go outside to, unless I need to go and fucking
steal food from a goddamn store, well I won't steal it... I'd buy it of course
but some people just love to fight for food, what has this world come to? I bet
someday there will be a bunch of zombies roaming around the place, well it's
already like a Apocalypse anyways!
I finish
cleaning and grip my hips, looking around the place, spotless! I grin and sit
down on my old rugged couch and turn on the T.V., static ran across it because
it was quite ruined...
I put on the
news channel and sighed, there is really no good channels is there? I listened
to it and it was mostly about murders or people fighting for things, ya know,
the usual. I turn off the T.V. and look around my house.
"God
I'm lonely"
I get up and
walk towards the window, same view, same everything, I chuckle lightly and then
make my way to the kitchen for some lunch, I haven't had anything to eat in a while...
I made a simple sandwich and took out a empty honey jar and pour milk into it,
once that was done I sat back down on the couch and started to eat my sandwich
like a normal person would do, I nibbled on it silently and looked around the
room, I didn't turn my T.V. back on or anything because I just didn't feel like
it, that's how I always eat, sitting down and looking into space as I eat
something... This sandwich is actually pretty darn good.
I finish it
and drink my milk, after that I put my dishes in the sink and flop down on the
couch and closing my eyes, maybe I'll have a good dream...
~**Dream**~
I open my eyes, it was completely
dark, my eyes looked for some light yet there was nothing to seem, as if my mind
has just completely stopped and didn't work... I started to run, I didn't know
why, I just felt like I needed to... I stopped, something was wrong here...
"Hello?" I cried out,
trying to find something, anything, this desperate need was taking control of
me, tears filled my eyes yet I had no idea why, I let out a muffled sob and
before I knew it i was in water, my throat started to burn and I started to
scream but it didn't even sound like a normal thing, I looked up to see the sky
and before I knew it I was falling down, my eyes widened "What the
fuck?!"
I flail about as the wind flies through
my hair, the feeling of dying was the worse thing I've ever felt...
~**End of
Dream**~
My eyes
shoot and quickly sit up, sweating like crazy, but the same feeling I had in my
dream didn't leave... I let out a sigh and grabbed my phone and called Russ.
"Hello?"
"Hey
Russ can you come over?"
"Uh
yeah man I'll be there in a bit!"
I hang up
and let out a sigh of relief, the feeling fading away... I laid back down on
the couch and closed my eyes until a loud knock boomed through the door. I sigh
and get up, opening it to see Russ, a worried look on his face "What
happened?! Where's the body?!" He rushed and I stepped aside to let him in
"Russ, relax, I just wanted some goddamn company, jeez!" I closed the
door and shook my head at him "I'm not that bad of a person!" I open
the window for some fresh, fresh-ish air, I swear to god this flat can become
hot as fuck!
"As
long as you didn't kill someone I'm fine with it" Russ chuckled and sat on
the couch while I sat in my lovely chair "But I am starting to get worried
for you Cry, you are calling us over a lot, well we go over a lot without you
giving us a invite but this time it is different... Why?" I let out a sigh
and brush my fingers through my hair "It sucks to be alone, I mean all of
us have someone but me, well Scott and Snake are not dating but they still live
together"
"I
still think they fuck each other" Russ admits making us both laugh "Yeah,
they just don't want anyone to know, I grin and sink in my chair "They're
probably doing it right now" I said, making us laugh again "How long
has our theory been going on about them having sex?" Russ asked, a smirk
on his face "At least six years by now" I laugh and he does as well
"Man we're fucked up sometimes" He shakes his head and we let out a chuckle.
"What
if we are right?"
"Cry, I
think we are"
"Yeah...
They spend so much time together it's not even funny"
I let out a
light laugh and stand up "Whatcha wanna do?" I ask, looking over at
him and putting my hands on my hips "Well for one, you look like a girl
doing that pose and uh wanna go out and see if Red is home from work?" I
nod my head "Yeah let’s do it!"
We get out
of my flat and take the stairs, once we're out we start walking down the familiar
path where Red and Russ live. Russ opens the door with his keys "Honey I'm
home!" He shouts "Oh hey Russ!" Red says, greeting him with a
kiss on the cheek "Heya" I
look around and admire their home, it was a two story house that lives far off
into the forest yet it isn't too long of a walk, at least thirty minutes but it
is very nice and Red always cleans, she is kind of a clean freak and always complains
when I never clean my own home!
"Hey
Cry" Red gave me a hug and smiled up at him "Can Cry stay here for a
while, he's lonely again" He nods her head "Why are you asking
me" He shrugged and grabbed my wrist "Let’s get drunk!" Russ
cheers as I laugh "Yeah!" He takes me to his room where this is
actually a good T.V., they spent forever to pay for this and get good channels.
He puts in a
CD of some horror movie I've never watched and give me a bottle of beer
"Tonight is buddy night!" We both cheer and clink our bottle together
and opening them up.
I woke up
the next morning, my head pounding as I groaned, I looked over to see Russ
waking up as well "We've made the biggest mistakes of our lives" Russ
cried out "We always say that when do this" I chuckle making my head
feel like it is tightening, as if a bun of rubber bands decided to squeeze
around my head.
I got up and
stumbled out of the room and got to the kitchen and turned on the light but I
quickly took it off because my head felt even worse. I went over to the sink
and let the water flow, I lifted my mask up a little and took a bent over,
drinking out of it "Cry?" I heard a female voice from behind, the
bright light was back and I groaned again "Turn it off" I complained,
I turned around to see Red shaking "What are you doing?" I asked but
before I knew it she was bursting into laughter.
"Oh my
god I just walk in and I see you drinking water from the sink!"
"Wait,
this isn't a water fountain?"
She shook
her head "No Cry, this is the kitchen, and that is well water" Red
chuckled "Goddammit! Well I think I'm gonna head off, cya Read, I mean
Red, Tell Russ I said goodbye to!"
"Uh
okay bye Cry!"
I walked out
of the house and somehow made my way to my own, I flopped down on the mattress
and buried my head into the pillow, falling asleep...
Going On a Trip
Felix's POV
I jolted
awake and my eyes flew open, thankfully catching the sight of my bland, white
ceiling. I felt sweat drip off my face and neck as I slowly sat up in my soft
bed. Slightly panting from fright, I threw the messy covers off of my body and
stood, flinching slightly as the cold hardwood flooring met my uncovered feet.
I soon grew
accustomed to the glacial feeling on my toes and proceeded to my desk, being
sure to dodge the many miscellaneous items that were strewn across the floor. I
silently cursed myself for being so lazy and falling asleep in the middle of my
cleaning that was cut out for me the other day, but was barely started a few
hours ago.
Rolling my
eyes and shrugging off the thought, I finally reached my desk and my hands
instantly grabbed a pen, along with my special notebook. They quickly flipped
to a new, clean page where I instantly started writing about my vivid dream,
straining my mind to remember even the slightest detail. This dream was too
important to not be written with such detail.
Once I
sloppily scribbled down the last word from my memory, I dropped the black inked
pen and held up my notebook with the new writing to the light, as if I didn't
believe what I dreamt of. Every single word I read made my eyes widen a little
each time, a feeling welling up inside my heart as well.
My
dream...it was about me as an old man, around the age of eighty. Even without
my notebook, I clearly remembered I lay in a hospital bed, looking out at the
lively and beautiful landscape that the window granted me with the very slim,
few minutes of life that I had left within me.
'It was
silent, except for the heart monitor that seemed to slow down by the second,
but with the silence came loneliness; agonizingly painful loneliness, not even
the breathtaking scenery can ease the feeling.' I read with a deep frown,
remembering what I thought in my dream.
My parents,
in the vivid dream, had already passed and were long gone, and I had no lover,
children, or friends, so there wasn't anyone to fill this overwhelming silence.
But, that wasn't
what had caused a few tears to trickle down my cheeks and the frightful
surprise that had awoken me. As my eyes slid shut and as I took my last
breathe, regret passed through my mind; regret that snapped me right out of my
not-so peaceful slumber.
All of my
dream, it was the result of not following my dream; not fulfilling the hope to
build a portal...
But, I
didn't understand. How could something like that have such an impact on my
life? Does it really matter that much that it will make me such a sad, lonely
man? The thought made me shiver in fear at the future, but then a thought
occurred to me.
So, if this
was the outcome of not following my dreams, then...what was the outcome of
fulfilling it? Does this mean that there was a possibility that I'll succeed?
The mere thought of the only thing I really want in life, the thing that I've
been studying about my life actually coming true made my heart pound with joy
and caused a few tears of happiness to roll down my cheeks.
That unknown
feeling from earlier spread throughout my entire body, but this time it was
much stronger this time, so strong it was intoxicating and I finally knew what
it was. It was determination. Sure, I've felt determination before as a child.
I felt it whenever I had to finish a long test in five minutes, I felt it when
I was I learning how to ride a bike, and I've also felt it when I wanted to
make my friends sad faces smile. But never have I felt it this strong; it was
as if my mind and view of the world was so hazy, and now I was seeing
everything in a new light.
It sounded
ridiculous - and trust me, I know what ridiculous sounds like- but that was the
most accurate way I could describe how lively and strong I felt, the feeling
gave me an edge and I loved it. I never wanted this overpowering emotion to
disappear, but I knew it would have to sooner or later, so I had to do something
before it vanishes for possibly forever.
Fearing that
it'll leave any second, I hurriedly ran over to my closet and grabbed any pair
of sneakers I could find and laced them up sloppily. I jumped to my feet and
grabbed an old and worn satchel from my closet as well, slinging it over my
shoulder and running around my room like a madman, shoving everything I needed into
it. Once I was satisfied with my phone, my wallet, my blueprints, and etc. all
packed away into the huge bag, I stopped and took a deep breath, trying to calm
the adrenaline that thumped against my ears, but it was no use. The edgy feeling
never left me, but in all honesty, I was sort of glad it never abandoned me.
Quickly
collecting my thoughts and ignoring any trace of hesitation, I hopped down the
stairs and jogged out the front door of my home, locking the door behind
myself. Exhaling, I turned around and faced the lively and blooming front lawn
of my home and the houses that were plotted across from my mine before
beginning to run. Running all the way to the place that'll definitely be a help
to me.
The junk yard
Cry's P.O.V
"Oh my
god Red it hurts so bad!" I groaned as she rummaged through the cabinets.
"Shouldn't
have been riding a bike at the middle of the night! Jesus Cry do you know how
bad it is out there? What were you thinking?!"
"Well I
mean, at night it isn't as bad and I really needed some fresh air! I'm
sorry!" Red shook her head and sat at the table where I was. "Also,
it isn't like I got shot or anything! I just fell off a bike, jeez..."
A chuckle
was heard from the red haired women as she gather all of the supplies which is
probably going to be painful. "You have a big gash in your knee, now let
me fix you up!" Red use to be a nurse, she is now a engineer, but she
knows everything about nursing and stuff like that, it is pretty cool I guess.
She sat from
across of me and patted her knee. "C'mon, put your leg up." I sighed
and did as I was told, groaning from the sudden pain. "Oh my, you hurt
yourself pretty bad." Red pointed out, lightly massaging around the wound,
somehow making the pain slowly substain, she then took a wet rag and cleaned
the blood around it.
Red set it a
side and took the cleaning alcohol. "Cry, this is really going to sting,
but we need to clean it out, it is my own mixture, but it will held, I've done
it to Russ many times and it healed him much more faster, so are you
ready?"
I nodded my
head and closed my eyes as I feel something liquid run into my massive wound,
but then the sudden pain was incredible, making me let out a scream, only to
get a worried look from my friend. "Shh, Cry, you're going to be fine, she
started to massage around it again, I looked at the wound as it started to fizz,
showing that it is cleaning everything out.
"What
the hell is all that noise?" I heard the oh so familiar voice from behind
me. "H-hey Russ." I choked out, only to make him look worried and rushed
over towards me. "Holy fuck man, what did you do?!"
"Cry
here decided it should be a good idea to go biking, but only to fall down a
steep hill, as you can see the aftermath, a large wound and a look of
bruises."
"Ouch,
you're going to be sore tomorrow buddy, but shouldn't we sow that up?"
I sat up
quickly put only to feel pain again and letting out yet another scream, I could
see the worry clouded in both of their eyes. "No! No! I am not getting my
knee sown!" I shouted, for some reason anger was built up inside of me, I
was so annoyed, everything bad is happening to me!
"Well,
I am letting him stay here till it heals, there is no way I am letting him back
there, so like it or not, you're going to be here for a few weeks, but if it
does not feel better in a week, I am afraid I will have to sow it up, but don't
worry Cry, I bet you will be fine." She gave me a reassuring smiling but
that didn't help at all.
I sighed and
tried to relax again as she took a bandage, wrapped it around my leg and clipped
it.
"I'll
take Cry to the guest room." Russ said, picking me up bridal-style.
"What the fuck Russ?!"
"Cry
stop being such a baby and let Russ carry you to the room, you're not allowed
to walk on it and I am going to find my old crutches tomorrow alright?"
Red said, waving me off as Russ started to carry me to the guest room.
"You really fucked your knee up." Russ pointed out, only to make me
roll my eyes. "No shit Sherlock."
He chuckled
and stopped in front of the door, I opened it for him because it was obvious
what he was asking for. "Thanks."
Russ took me
over to the bed and laid me down. "Goodnight loser." He said as he
started to make his way over to the door, I chuckled. "Fuck you, and
goodnight."
* * *
I tried to
close my eyes again, only for a few second before I opened them, the pain was
back, I wanted to yell for someone, but I shouldn't bother them...
I shifted
slightly but only to groan in pain from the small movement. "Oh my
god" I said, covering my hands over my mask, slowly sliding them down to
the bottom. I moved my head to the right, looking at the wall that met with the
bed. "Fuck you wall." I said and then looked up at the ceiling.
"Fuck you ceiling! Fuck you floor, fuck you bed, fuck you world, fuck you
everything!"
I stuck my
tongue out, only for it to me with my mask, and damn that was nasty! "Why
did I even stick my tongue out?! And why am I talking to myself? When the hell
did I start doing this?" I questioned myself. "Should I call out to
someone? What if I am being annoying? Fuck it, everyone is annoying anyways...
Red!! Russ! Help!" I yelled out, feeling so helpless because I couldn't
get up.
Red rushed
in, Russ behind her. "It hurts so bad!" I complained, I just wanted
to cry, but crying is for babies, even though that is my name...
They came to
my side. "What hurts the most?" She asked, only making me scoff.
"My fucking arm!" Red raised a brow only making me roll my eyes. "Holy
shit, I was kidding, my knee is in pain!"
It was her
turn to roll her eyes. "I have no idea what to do, the only thing that
could help would be full on surgery." I groaned, it hurt so much, should I
go through this? "Fine, whatever, just get this shit over with this,
please!"
She shook
her head. "Not tonight Cry, tomorrow, when I am more awake and not as
tired alright?"
I nodded my
head, trying to show that I was obviously not pleased with this, and crossed my
arms over my chest, still laying down. "Alright, fine, and thank you so
much Red..." I looked over at her again to see her smiling and started to
ruffle my hair. "You’re welcome."
They both
left me again, all alone, for more pain, and I tried my best to go to sleep.
* * *
I woke up,
feeling slightly cold, shivering and pulling the covers closer to me. I laid
there, looking at the ceiling, the day light came from the window, shining
through the curtains.
I put my arm
up to my mask and covered the eyes holes, blocking all light that was trying to
annoy me, but sadly, the silence was interrupted. "Cry! Are you
awake?" I let out a sigh. "Nope."
"Oh
good, glad that you are, so you ready for the pain to slightly go away?"
I uncovered
my eyes and slowly sat up, seeing Russ leaning against the door. "Why
now?" I asked, tilting my head to the side. "Don't you want to get
this over with?" He asked, walking over towards me and picking me up.
"Ugh, I
have no choice do I?"
"Nope."
Russ replied as we went over to the open door. He took me over to the couch and
laid me down, seeing a few small tabled filled with tools.
"Good
luck Buddy!" He said while leaving.
Then came in
Red, her hair tied back and gloves that wrapped around her hands. "Alright
let's get started!" She sat down in an office chair that spins around and
rolled over to my knee, slowly un-bandaging it. "Wait! Shouldn't I be asleep
for this?!" I asked, almost about to quickly sit up but remembering what
happened last time.
"We
don't have anything, I'm sorry Cry."
I frowned
and closed my eyes. "Just, get it over with." She put more alcohol on
my wound, only causing me to scream in pain, and making me squirm slightly.
After
calming down and this made me think it was over, but oh boy was I wrong!
Something jabbed in to my skin and went all the way through, I let out yet
another scream as I felt tears starting to form in the corner of my eyes, yet
again the same pain came back but at the other spot, the same process went over
and over again, making me breath heavily and close my eyes tightly, tears
streaming down my face.
"We're
all done!"
My eyes
opened. "Try sitting up Cry and see if it makes you feel a little
better." I did as I was told and the pain was still there, but I could
handle it. I sniffled and Red looked at me, frowning and gave me a hug.
"Everything went great! Now shall we bandage it up?" I nodded my head
as she cleaned up any extra blood and wrapped a bandage around it.
Red got up
and went over to get crutches, she helped me up and gave me both of them, I put
them under my arm and lifted myself, landing only on one foot, there was slight
pain but nothing horrible. "Thanks Red." I said and looked back at
her.
"Anything
for you Cry! But don't think I am letting you go home yet, you're staying here
for atleast four days now, and you have to deal with it."
I let out a
sigh and nodded my head. " She pointed towards the door, go out, your
friends are waiting for you! I'll be coming soon, just let me clean up!"
Red took off her bloody gloves and started to pick up all the tools, I turned
around and head towards the door, opening it and only to me swarmed in with my
friends.
"Holy
shit man, that sounded so horrible! Are you okay?" Scott questioned,
looking at me from head to toe.
"Oh my
god Cry, I can't believe you did that." Snake said, his eyes obviously in disappointment
but I could see that there was still a little hint off.
"Cry,
you did so well!" Russ patted my shoulder and I nodded at all of them,
trying my best to hide the sniffle but yet that didn't work out.
"He is
crying! Cry is crying!" Scott pointed out only make me scowl at him, and I
knew he could feel it. "Scott, that is enough." Snake said, ruffling
my hair. "I hope you will feel better." Red came back into the room.
"Guys go sit at the table, I will make us lunch!"
* * *
I hugged Red
goodbye and give Russ a very manly hug! Like really manly. "Thanks guys, I
don't know what would happen if you guys weren't my friends!"
They nodded
and smiled happily. "Just remember to try and stay off that leg, and if
you ever moving, use the crutches! Give it a month to heal alright?"
"Okay,
bye!" I walked out the door and smiled, it has been a nice week, everyone
visited me every day, and it was just nice I guess... I moved slowly from the
stupid crutches, no matter how much I wanted to throw them, I know I would just
regret it after. I let out a sigh, this is going to be a long month...
The End
