Chereads / The 61 / Chapter 7 - Chapter six

Chapter 7 - Chapter six

And as the night continued the fun never ended, they even ended up dressing him in the extra clothes they had, and tying the shirts and pants together to him and actual gown. And he worked that gown.

Modeling up and down the room, learning how to cat walk, being a sassy diva. And that ended up turning into a whole fashion show as more girls joined in and got all dolled up.

Only going to bed after one A.M, which was by far the first the girls had ever stayed up that late on purpose, and not just because they couldn't sleep.

And the next day, the girls came out wearing the same dolled up dresses they made the previous night, as they had learned how to turn the simple pants and shirt into a skirt and cropped top by reversing it, wrapping the pants around their shoulders and putting their legs into the shirt collar, some girls hips were a bit wide, but at the end of the day the fabric was very loose and just ended in a sort of mini skirt. And 16 of the girls were wearing it like that. The only girls that didn't were the tomboys and the ones too insecure.

And the boys absolutely loved it, even the gays staring and gagging over it, and being teenagers and never having seen the girls thighs before, a lot of erections were made.

And the reactions were definitely mixed, going from being excited and confident to nervous or uncomfortable.

"Omg girly, Atlas keeps staring at you."

"Ahh, oh my god Kai cleeeearly isn't wearing underwear, did you see how big he is?!"

"Keep your voice down!"

"Urgh, and don't get me started on Vegas."

"Why now all of a sudden they're paying attention to us..."

"I don't like the way he's looking at me...."

"I'm gonna go change... This is just making me uncomfortable."

"I know they can't help it but..."

However most of the girls liked the attention, and those who didn't luckily still understood the boys meant no harm and couldn't control there bodies.

"Fuck... I made Maeve so uncomfortable." Isaiah mumbled, hiding his head in his arms, "No, dude, I'm sure she knows you don't mean anything by it."

"Bro, I couldn't take my eyes of her, I knew she was beautiful but.. does she have to be that beautiful?" Isaiah mumbled, feeling awful, he was visibly staring down at Maeves legs and barely paid attention to anything she said, he hadn't even realized how much his erection stood out of his pants, and this was the case for most of the boys, the only thing they'd ever gotten close to was the comics and sex ed books. Nothing nearly so... Real.

And in some miracle Maeve ended up being right behind coming from the bathrooms after changing, "I thought you were staring at the stretch marks... I thought you were disgusted by it," She mumbled, smiling softly and looking down as Isaiah jumped not having known she was there, "Y-you... You think I'm beautiful?" And with that sentence Isaiah took her by her hand and led her outside where no one could hear him as he started scolding her for thinking badly of herself.

Maeve looked at him almost having tears in her eyes as Isaiah was listing everything he loved about her in the most angry, and aggressive tone, as if he was genuinely mad at her while complimenting her.

But some boys didn't react so well of their fellow victims acting so vulgar, as Isaac made his way threw the cafeteria, reaching London and punching him directly in his nose without even a single warning or indication as to why he would do this.

It's not too uncommon to see physical violence, however most of the time it's between friends who like the adrenaline, not actual anger, "If you EVER even fucking breathe near my sister I'll fucking end you!!!" Isaac was pulled away forcefully by his friends as London fell to ground, straight on his ass, "ILL FUCKING END YOU!!!" Isaac continued yelling, getting everyone's attention as he fought the three boys trying to keep him from hurting London, along with Riley trying to stop him, "What hell are you doing!" However London was more impressed by it then anything, "YOU FUCKING PEACE OF HUMAN TRASH!!!"

"Wait what did I even do though?" London asked, getting up in a bit of a stumble, "Nothing! Isaac stop! Isaac!" Riley yelled, trying to pull her brother away from London as well but he had gotten loose and attacked London once again.

"Isaac stop!" Riley kept begging and begging but to no prevail, kids gathered around Isaac and tore the two apart, taking a whole crew to get Isaac to back off.

"I'll fucking kill you, you fucking-" before Isaac could finish his sentence, Riley had slapped him, hard. Very hard over his left cheek, "What the fuck is wrong with you?!!" She yelled at him, though Isaac simply pushed everyone off of him and stormed out, Riley immediately went to London and helped him up, "Are you Okey? Are you hurt badly?" She asked, checking his nose while crouching next to London, "I'm Okey, but what the fuck is his problem?" London asked, flinching as Riley accidentally touched him, "Sorry!" She immediately took her hand back, and made sure nobody touched him as she helped him up and led him to the nurses office.

"Urgh, I don't know.. he just started rampaging." Riley spoke softly, gently pressing cotton pads on London's face and wiping it clean from any blood, as the actual doctor meant to take care of their health didn't bother and was rather taking a kid that was picked the night prior.

So Riley was left to help London alone, "I guess because of the clothes? I didn't want it to cause so much trouble.. we just wanted to feel pretty."

London took Riley's hand immediately, "You are pretty, beautiful, gorgeous, stunning-... Another word that means beautiful that I can currently think of. B-but anyway, my point is, you did nothing wrong. I'm sure he's just mad that i-i was looking at you.."

Riley smiled and blushed, "I mean obviously he's mad, I just didn't think he had it in him." After Riley had finished, she went to look for her twin, and soon found him alone in the boys dorm.

"Hey, what was all that about? Why were so you upset?" Riley asked, sitting down next to him and startling him, "Why the fuck do you think?! How dare you defend him?!" Isaac immediately yelled at her, Riley flinched as her shoulder was roughly grabbed and thrown onto the bed, Issac pinned her down by her shoulders, getting onto her with one leg on each side of her waist as he continued yelling at her for reasons she couldn't even understand.

"Isaac stop it! Youre hurting me!" She begged, trying her hardest to pushed him away but he just kept yelling and yelling at her, eventually getting to the point of striking her.

Isaac froze dead and watched the tears stream down Riley's face as she tried to cover herself with her arms, "Isaac.. please let me go.." She begged, her voice was soft and afraid, Isaac slowly got up and let Riley go, she quickly jumped off the bed and fell on the floor as she tried to get away from him.

"Riley..." He mumbled, in disbelief of his own actions, Riley looked at him with nothing but fear as she crawled away from him on her back, eventually having the courage to run out of the room. Leaving Isaac bewildered and confused, and scared.

That might at dinner, people were surrounding Isaac asking questions after question.

"What did he do?"

"Now that you cooled off do you think he deserved it?"

"Did he touch Riley?"

"Did she not consent?"

"Did he hurt her?"

It was overwhelming for Isaac, but eventually his nerves got the best of him and he just yelled out, "Be quiet!!" And everyone quickly did, "i-i don't... Urgh, he was touching Riley, I saw it but only from the back.. I thought she was moving around so much because she was uncomfortable but he was just fixing her skirt, and she was moving so much because it tickled her. Yesterday I was chosen by the lab, and they injected me with something that made me angry, and I think thats what caused my outrage. London did absolutely nothing wrong, please do not blame him."

The kids were nearly gagging at his speech, they both felt bad for him, and for London and Riley, but they all understood that the injections made them do crazy things.

"Now, if you'll let me get passed so I can go apologise?" He asked, almost teasingly as he was basically being held hostage at the door. The kids laughed and got out of the way, and Isaac quickly made his way to London.

"Hey bro- damn, you look good... Am I that weak?" Isaac asked, realizing there were zero bruises, just a swollen eye and obviously the nose, London laughed, "Ye, mate, I thought I was done for but you hit like a baby," London teased, getting up and initiated a handshake, which Isaac soon accepted and ended it in a hug, "No hard feelings bro, i know how it feels seeing your baby sister being treated like that, I probably would've done the same. But I promise you i will never do anything that'll hurt her."

"I know, London, I really do." Isaac hugged him again and once again explained that he thought whatever they injected into him last night was what caused him to overreact, however London is fully convinced he wasnt overreacting at all.

As for Riley, she stayed far far away from Isaac, she was honestly terrified of him at that moment, and all she told her friends about the bruise was that she hit herself while opening a bottle of water, which was perfectly believable knowing her clumsy personality.

She wandered why she had such a visible bruise but London had none, the answer was one: her skin is much softer and prawn to bruising. And two: London was simply healing at an ungodly speed.

And everything continued as usual, the girls, along with two of he boys enjoyed their skirts and new outfits, and no one bothered them about it. Eventually we saw three official couples, Isaiah and Mave, Lorelei and Yoshiba, and London and Riley, and many more 'friends' that obviously liked each other, like how Mia liked Sage and Sage liked Mia, everyone else knew, but did they? No, neither of them wanted to ruin the friendship with the other so they stayed quiet.

Soren was bombed with love from everyone and told how much they loved him and that they don't blame him or they want him to stay alive, for them. But after three days they all went back to normal, they knew not to baby him and treat him like he's a king, because that would be fake. And the last thing Soren needed was fake friends, however Jamie and Adrian did constantly check up on him, and ask questions which Soren usually acted dull towards, but he secretly loved it.

He loved that someone was caring for him, and though he couldn't physically feel it, or show it, he still knew he appreciated his friends even if he couldn't tell them.

"Hey, Sorrow, can I sit?.." Adrian asked softly touching Sorens shoulder, "Again with that damn nickname..." Soren mumbled not caring much as he laid there sleepily on his bed, Adrian chuckled, "It suits you, and it's really cute."

"Only a psychopath thinks the death of a loved one is cute." Soren giggled as well, keeping his eyes closed and just accepting when Adrian sat down next to him, "Sorrow doesn't mean the death of a loved one," Adrian scoffed, "It can mean all kinds of things, besides, tiny little grandma's in black dresses are cute."

Soren smiled, he found the joke very funny but didn't laugh, "Amen to that." He said, slowly opened his eyes to look at Adrian, "Do you mind a serious topic or should we just continue playing like this?" He suddenly asked, Adrian tilted his head curiously, "Yea? What's on your mind?"

"You know I don't like you.. and I never will, so why don't you just stop this for your own sake." Soren spoke, slowly getting up sitting next to Adrian on the side of the bed, "Oh, wow, that is a serious topic umm-" Adrian struggled for words, he looked at Sorens dull face and froze, "No." Is all he got out of his mouth.

"Adrian, i know it's not just a crush, you're hurting yourself," Soren said, and Adrian immediately pulled his wrists into his lap, covering them on instinct, "Physically too I see..." Soren said, taking Adrian's hand and intertwining their fingers.

Adrian stayed silent for a long time, simply holding his hand and enjoying the feeling unbelievably, "No, I'm not gonna stop, and this is exactly why. You were mentally destroyed more then any of us by the doctors, and even so you still care about me. Even if not in the way I need you to... I will wait, for you to love me. And even if that never happens I'll still wait and love you endlessly." Adrian smiled brightly, but Soren just scoffed, pulling his hand away, "I'm never going to love you, what you're describing isnt love, it's stupidity."

Soren laid back down on his bed and turned away from Adrian, giving him a clear view of the bandage on his wrist, he looked down and touched his own, "How did it feel?... When it felt like.. it's finally all ended," Adrian asked, he's been dying to ask but never saw it appropriate, but whats the point when Soren most definitely didn't care, however, was he wrong? Soren remained quiet staring at the beds and beds in front of him, "It.. it's so.. fucking amazing... When you hurt, and you can control how much... Or for how long. You get to decide, it's... I once read a book from the library about depression and self harm and how to deal with it, they say it's wrong or selfish... But is it still selfish when no one even cares? It's difficult, you know? Not knowing... Not knowing how to act or feel, or what's considered normal or 'right'. I mean we all are going off of a fucking limb we don't don't know what highschools like, we don't know what it's like to get a job or to live on your own. How do we know if hurting yourself is wrong, just because of some book? I just-... I wanna know if it's better... To.. you know.. do it. Do that... Fuck, what am I even saying? I don't have the courage for that, and I would never do that to my friends. I remember how fucked up I was after I left here, honestly it felt good to feel again... To feel real emotional pain, pain that I like and pain that's just so-... Good.. it proves that I'm still human, even though I can do this." Adrian suddenly lit a ball of fire in his palm, playing with it and dancing it threw the air.

Soren still remained quiet listening to Adrian's speech, he knew they all suffered, and to him they all suffered the same, just in different ways which was true. And some are stronger then others, every single thing Adrian just said was exactly what he's been feeling for years. Adrian just put his emotions into words.

"I-... I don't know... I think I blacked out it was just-.. empty... It felt.. empty, just complete blackness, no sound, no light no thoughts it was just... There. As for in the moment, when I fell down.. I tried so hard to just tell them that I'm alright, and to not come in here, but they didn't hear me.. I think it was more scary then anything, I was so scared of how'd they react. But once it was over, when I woke up... Shame.. I think that's the only way I could describe, Im not ashamed that I tried to kill myself, Im ashamed that I failed."
