Chapter 8
Alice's P.O.V
"So...?" I asked trying to figure out what he was thinking.
"I-I could help you with that..." He said
"You would?" I asked, that means no going to the hospital.
"Y-yeah"
"Thank you so much" I replied smiling.
"Okay, well I need you to sit on the couch." He said.
I obeyed.
"Okay, do you have any towels and disinfectant I can use?" He asked a little nervous.
"I think there are on the bathroom." I replied. "The bathroom is next to the kitchen."
He went to search for the towels, almost running.
He came back with loads of things in his hands.
He sat next me on the couch.
"I-I'm going to l-lift your s-shirt a little, o-okay?"
I nodded. He's nervous, how cute.
Marcel's P.O.V
Okay Marcel, is time to put into practice what uncle George taught you.
I lift her shirt a little just to find bruises and cuts everywhere. That must be painful.
"Did you clean the cuts?" I asked, a little bit more confident now as I'm the one who's helping.
"Yesterday, with water." She answered.
I nodded and put the disinfectant softly in her skin.
She flinched a little.
"Sorry" I muttered.
I continued to do that repetitively.
"All done" I announced.
"Thank you Marcel." She said standing up.
"You're welcome."
Awkward silence.
"You wanna go upstairs?"
"Sure."
I followed her upstairs to her room.
"So this is my room!" She said.
I looked around it was a quite small room.
Something caught my attention, it was a big pile of books. I made my way towards it.
They were books from all kind of books. The hole "Lord Of the rings" saga along as Narnia's and Harry potter. There was Pride and Prejudice and Peter Pan too.
"I know it's stupid..." She said looking at the floor.
"No, not at all! I read them too!" I exclaimed. "Well except for Pride and Prejudice.."
She laughed.
I took another book .
"Alice in Wonderland" I laughed. "How ironic."
She smiled at me.
"Well... I better be going" I said.
"Yeah.."
"T-Thanks for the evening Alice, it was lovely." I muttered.
"No problemoww!" She laughed.
She went downstairs with me.
"Bye!"
"Bye"
I climed to the driver's seat and started the engine.
I smiled like an idiot all the way home.
When I arrived, my mum shoot me with questions.
"How was it?!"
"Really good!" I smiled.
"Oh Marcel!" She shouted and wrapped her arms around my neck.
"What?"
"Nothing, Mum feelings" She explained.
I laughed.
"Oh.. and your dad wants to talk to you."
"Where is he?"
"In the kitchen"
I nodded and went to the kitchen.
"Y-you wanted to talk?" I asked.
His tall figured turned to face me.
"Yeah.. come sit."
I obeyed.
"I want to talk about your classes..."
"It's okay, I'm top of my class." I said proudly.
"No, not that classes." He sighed. "I'm talking about boxing"
I felt my face turning pale.
"I-I don't want to take the classes again-"
"YOU WILL TAKE THE CLASSES" He yelled. "PERIOD" it made me jump a little.
He got out of the kitchen taking big steps.
I could hear him closing the front door.
I just stayed there.
My mum entered to the kitchen.
"He wants you to take the classes again, doesn't he?" She asked.
I nodded.
"Give him time" She whispered. "You know he do it cause he's worried."
"I know... but I don't want to take the classes again. It's not the person I want to become."
"I know..." She sighed. "Just give him time."
I ran upstairs to my room.
I locked myself in.
I went to lay on my bed.
I sighed.
I don't want to.
I don't want to keep this secrets anymore.
Everyone thinks I'm a nerd. Well I am a nerd but school it's not all I care about....
My secrets are unknown.
My secrets hide behind my glasses.
