Jade's pov
I feel a bad headache creeping in. I must've fallen asleep this afternoon as soon as I came home. I remembered being tired but I could hardly recall anything that happened later.
I had another vivid dream of Augustine. This is getting out of hand, I don't know what to think of this anymore. My eyes swayed to the clock in my room. It's flashing 5:55, angel numbers.
I read about them. It said, you see repeating numbers because there are angels around you, and they're trying to grab your attention.
What are the chances of that?
The wind outside blew rattling my window which instantly reminded me of Augustine. My mind seemed to be occupied with nothing but him lately to the point where I think, I'm going insane.
I could've made sure he was here, sitting on my window when I came home this afternoon. He had his wings showing, they were breathtaking. But I guess, that was just another one of my dreams. I can't tell reality from dreams anymore.
Ouch! My head is pulsing and my muscles ached like my entire body had been slung around.
Wait…that's weird. Why do I smell like high winds like I've been somewhere out on top to the hill or a high building?
I need to take a shower, but something is bothering me, why do I feel the sense of danger when he's around as though he's a dangerous man and I should fear him instead of being curious about him.
Oh well, I'll find out when I see him at school tomorrow. I need to speak to him, find out answers to all the questions aching to be answered.
The next morning….
There he was by the locker again, the same spot as yesterday, standing and talking to the same girl. But this time, it was her who had a more curious look than yesterday. She looked like she wanted to capture me and put me under a microscope. Peel my skin layer by layer until she finds what she's looking for.
What's up with him and her? They're both weird.
I wanted to get uncomfortable, but when you have beautiful people looking at you, you can't help but stare back. What does she want?
I took a brave step forward. It doesn't matter how crowded the hallway is, ocean of students walking by when she elbowed Augustine and leaned on his ear, whispering as she stared at me walking closer.
Augustine shifted his head over his shoulder, he had his back toward me. His dark eyes steady as I approach. Then suddenly, my entire nerves awakened, and my heart reacted.
I could hear the wild thud of my chest against my ears. My knees trembled and my stomach twisted, before I knew it, I had bile climbing up to my throat and I couldn't control the rush of vomit hurling out of my mouth.
I threw up right there in the middle of the hallway. In front of everyone.
It wasn't like a small vomit, I was really hurling my guts out.
What a mess.
I felt nauseous. Someone please save me from this embarrassment.
All I could hear was people's disgusted murmurs around and I'm about to have a bad anxiety attack.
