Runaway thief...

I spun around to see the curly haired boy, his arm still wrapped around my arm. I tried to pull away but his grip was too tight for me.
"Harry let go of me!"
"Listen I'm not having you become another version of me!"
"What are you on about Harry why would I wanna be like you?" That sounded harsh but I was right, no one in their right mind would want to be like him!
"I saw Louise lying on the floor and she looked exactly like Joe when I had beaten him up, I'm not having you go to prison again"
"And you say I'm acting like your Mum, Harry I dont care, that wasn't my first time in prison!". I stopped, had that really just slipped out my mouth. I had told him way to much already anyway, what was I going to say now?
"What do you mean?" His puzzled face, made me want to explain but I couldn't tell him.
"I dont have to explain anything to you, and anyway it wasn't for anything interesting" I lied, but he still seemed un convinced.
"You I said I know when your lying Kaila, well I can tell now"
"No you cant honestly Harry, besides were not friends so you have no right to know private things about me". I began to walk away, but he said something that stopped me.

"I know something private about you, that even you dont know".

I turned around, what was he on about?
"What do you mean Harry?"
"I mean about 'why you were in hospital'. It was something the Doctor told me"
"And you didn't think I might like to know this before now, go on spill the beans"
"All I'm saying is that it was important". What, if it was important then I should have been told, he needs to tell me.
"Please Harry"
"Only if you tell me about your past"
"Why do you care anyway?"
"I'm intrigued that's all".
"Fine" I gave in.


-----Harry's POV-----

I grabbed her arm and pulled her in to the cleaning cupboard. It was tight squeeze but I knew she wouldn't tell me in the open, besides it cant hurt to get a little closer to her. She took a deep breath in, then began to speak.
"I've never told anyone this so you have got to promise to keep it a complete secret. I dont trust you, and the only reason I'm telling you is because I have to find out about what the Doctor said. It better be serious, cos you know if it isn't I'm gonna kick your ass again"
That reminded me about when she had punched me, I didn't need that again, but I knew she wouldn't when I told her this. It is serious, if the choice between life of death is considered serious.
"Trust me it's serious"
"Ok so basicly....a few years ago when I was in care I used to steal a lot. It started of with some of the other kids money, or stuff. As I grew up I began to take bigger things, and more money. You get the idea, but anyway someone grassed on me and I got taken to prison etc, etc. So yeah now forget what I said and tell me what you have to say"
I have to say I'm impressed but I couldn't let her know that, so I brushed it of.
"Ok so basicly when you went to the hospital and you were knocked out the Doctor told me that the illness you have is a really serious one, and that they will have to bring you in more, and more to try and get rid of it, but if they cant then I'll have to be prepared to say goodbye"

She was frozen, her face completely still. I could see that she was trying so hard not to cry, but it wasn't working.
"That must've been why I was getting emails to come in to the hospital, but I never knew why, so I didn't".
A rush of sympathy came to me, and I couldn't help but wrap my arms around her, but she pushed them away. A frown appeared on her face as she looked up at me.
"How Dare You not tell me Harry! You knew how serious this was and yet even still when someone else's problems occur you have to get something out of it! Your always so selfish and you never think about anyone but yourself!!". She pushed me to the side, opened the door and ran down the corridor.

I watched her run, then turned to face the people stood still outside in the corridor, staring at me.
"What you looking at?" I said aggressively, the tone of my voice deep and angry. They all immediately hurried of and walked away. I was left in the corridor, Kaila's last words echoing in my ears.

-----Kaila's POV------

I ran down the hallway. I was so angry, and upset with Harry I couldn't' even think about crying. Why wouldn't he have told me about that. He knew my illness was serious and could potentially lead to my death!! So why wouldn't he say anything. I had told him so much, and ended up being completely honest with him, even if I didn't want to. But he had so many secrets that I knew nothing about, and he kept that secret from me!!

I ran out the building, down the many streets to the hospital, and in to the lobby. It was cold, and the smell of antiseptic filled my nostrils. I stared wildly at the lady on the desk, she recognised me, and got up. That was the last thing I saw as I slowly fainted back in to oblivion.

Notes

OOooooh wow that was a shocker!
Hope you liked it.
Why didn't Harry tell her?

What will happen next?

And will Harry ever drop his ignorance, and selfishness to apologise?
