When Naomi and I got home, we ate dinner and she went to her bedroom to start on homework. I stayed in the kitchen and thought about Anna. "I can't believe she cares about me?" I thought. "Does she like me? Do I like her?" I didn't know what to do. I decided to do some homework in the kitchen and suddenly heard Naomi's loud scream.
Noah: "Naomi?" I screamed.
Naomi: "Noah! Helppp!!" she screamed back.
I ran across the house to her bedroom. When I opened the door I felt a sharp pain behind me and I was hit in the head with what seemed like a vase.
First male: "Should we kill him?"
Second male: "Nah, I knocked him out pretty hard, he shouldn't remember anything."
First male: "Ok, fine, let's get the girl and go."
I tried to get up and help Naomi but I couldn't, I fell unconscious.
I remember waking up and trying to find Naomi. When I couldn't find her I decided to go to Anna. I walked out of my house and started my way to Anna's because she is the only person outside of my family that I actually trust. I noticed that I had blood all over my face and soaked into my shirt. My head started throbbing in pain and I realized that being knocked out didn't help my concussion.
I finally got to Anna's house after about 10 minutes of walking. I knocked on the door and heard footsteps. I could see Anna slowly open the door.
Noah: "Anna?" I said in a painful moan.
She took two steps back and I walked closer.
Anna realized that it was me and quickly grabbed my arm and tried to help me into the house.
Anna: "Mom! Its Noah! He needs help!" she said, sounding frightened.
She brought me into the guest bedroom and laid me on the bed. I fell unconscious and a few minutes later woke up. She asked me if I remember what happened. I told her someone attacked Naomi and I and whipped me on the back. She told me to take off my shirt and roll over. I did as she said and again, fell unconscious.
I remember Anna holding my hand and warning me that something will hurt. I looked at her in confusion and immediately felt a needle stab into my back. I moaned and tightened my grip on Anna's hand. I felt even more pain when her mom started cleaning my back with alcohol. I fell unconscious again.
When I woke up I felt something cold laying on my back. Ice... maybe? Anna was still tightly holding on to my hand.
Noah: "Anna?" I asked in a moan.
Anna: "Yes, Noah?" she said, happily.
Noah: "What happened?" I said, still tightly holding her hand.
Anna explained to me what happened. I looked at her and said thank you. She said of course and asked me if I remembered anything. I said that I remembered someone grabbing Naomi and went to help her, then felt a very sharp pain in my back and was knocked out. I remembered looking for her house and seeing her at the door..... but I didn't remember anything else.
Anna looked at me sadly and combed my hair out of my face. I looked up at her and asked only because I wanted to hear it again.
Noah: "Why do you help me?"
Anna: "Noah, I help you because you are important to me. Because I want to help you get better. I hate to see you in pain and I wish this never happened to you." She said.
I pulled her hand closer to me and kissed it. She suddenly blushed and smiled.
Oh how I love her smile.
Noah: "Anna.....I love you." and I fall unconscious but heard her whisper.... "I love you too." and I smiled.
