Friday was close. I look up. Plain old roof. "Noah! If you don't get up, you'll be late!" Shouted Blade from the other room. "I'm not going today!" I shouted, cursing myself under my blanket.
"Are you ok by your self?" He asked. "Yes." I muffled, not sure if he heard me. Once I heard the door slam shut, I peak through my covers and walked over to lock it. "Aaaaand, You're not the only one staying home then!" Said Blade, wrapping his arms around my neck from behind. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" I shouted, stepping back, tripping, and falling over. "Ack! Why are you so heavy!?" Shouts Blade, trying to push me off. "S-s-sorry!" I studdered and rolling off. "I think I hit my head too hard, can you help me up?" He asked. "Sure," I replied, getting up and grabbing his arm. "And, you thought!" Laughed Blade, pulling me down while he gets up. "Ow!" I said when my head hit the floor, hard. A jolt of pain coursed through my body. Tears started to fill my eyes. "Are you ok?" Said Blade, quickly running towards me. "Grab me an ice pack, I put them in the freezer in case of stuff like this happens," I said, trying to get up. Using the wall as support, I got over to the couch quickly. "here," Said Blade, Putting the ice pack on the back of my head. "Oww." whispered, so softly that I hoped Blade didn't hear. "Does it hurt that much?" Asked Blade, He was worried about me.
"Not that much," I said, standing up, and falling down after a sharp pain in my head. "Don't move too quickly, is your vision alright?" He asked. "Uh, It's not blurry," I said. Whenever I fell down the stairs or got hurt, no one ever cared, let alone, no one ever even looked at me. Not even my own family. "Hello? Is Noah in there?" Said Blade, looking at me. "I was just thinking about things, none of your business," I said, looking away. "I won't ask then." He said. "Hello? I heard you, are you going to just ignore me knocking!?" Shouted Emma, from behind the door. "S-sorry!" I said, getting up and ran to the door. "Ah!" I said, tripping and falling. "I told you not to move so suddenly!" Said Blade, helping me up. "Hello?" Said Emma, once more. "C-coming!" I shouted, still face flat on the floor.
"Oh no your not!" Said Blade, helping me sit right. "Sorry for the wait, now what do you want?" Sighed Blade, he sounded mad. "Heres your $10," Said Emma. shoving a crumpled 10 dollar bill in Blade's hand. "Sorry for bothering you." Said Emma, and turned to leave. "You can stay if you want," I said, not minding. Blade shot me a 'How-dare-you-you-are-so-dead-later-' look. I shuddered.
"Ok, what happened?" Said Emma, looking at me. "I tripped and fell."I sighed, walking towards the sofa. "Do you need a band-aid?" Said Emma, rummaging through her bag. "How come you're not at school?" Asked Blade looking at her school bag. "Didn't feel like it." She said. "I'm tired, I'll sleep, "I said, leaning back on the sofa. "You just woke up!" said Blade, sitting beside me. "I'll just leave you two be," said Emma, closing the door behind her. "Finally she's gone!" Sighed Blade, leaning back to look at me. "U-um!" I sputtered, looking away. "Blade seemed shocked too. No wonder! That was too close! --------------------------------------------Hours later-------
I woke up. Huh? I am still on the couch. "Ah!" I yelped. Was I leaning on Blade the whole time I was asleep?! "you're awake?" Yawned Blade, looking at me on the floor. "Is your head ok?" He asked, getting up. "Uh...It doesn't hurt as much when I move." I replied, rubbing my head. It still hurt a little. I looked at the clock for the time. "It's 2 pm right now?!?" I said. "What's so special about 2 pm?" asked Blade, not knowing that we skipped lunch. I rushed to the kitchen without answering his question. "Oh ya, lunch." He said, still tired. "Now you notice?" I said, not a type of question that is taken seriously. "What are you making?" Asked Blade. "Some fried rice." "Ok, I'll just wait and watch some tv." "Ok." ------------After dinner-----------------------
"Do you have a crush?" Asked Blade. That question came out of nowhere. "Uhhh..." I can't think of a proper answer. "Afraid to answer?" Smiled Blade. "You've been here for long enough! You surely have one!" Said Blade, hovering around me. "Any boys caught your attention?" I jumped. "no!" I sputtered. "W-what about you?" I asked. I kind of didn't want to hear the answer. "I don't know, do I have someone I like?" Said Blade. He said it in a way that I questioned if I was seeing a new side of him. "I'm going to sleep, you should too," I said turning away. "Why? it's only 7!" Sighed Blade, looking at me. "Tomorrow's Friday! We are going to school early!" I said, walking to my room.
"Oh ya! I'm going to sing! And I've got to practice for it early tomorrow! Ah, the teacher is going to give me a whole lecture because I skipped school to play!" Said Blade. "Sucks to suck!" I said. Closing the door to my room. Do I actually have feelings for him? He seems calm, and I would really like to hear him sing. I'll just hope nothing goes wrong.
