Chapter 8

"Please leave." I whispered, my voice hoarse from my crying. I heard rustling, his body laying next to mine.

"Are you drunk?"

"No, god no I'm not drunk."

He stayed silent, his eyes watching the sky above me.

"Did whatever you leave school for go well?"

I heard him chuckle, takin a deep sigh before he spoke. "Yeah, also heard you left Andrew in the cafeteria."

"Hope he didn't get in too much trouble for me."

He laughed again, sending shivers down my spine.

He sat up, crossing his legs.

I sat up, shielding my face even though I knew he couldn't see me in the dark. He reached out to touch my arm but I flinched back, his hand wavering in the air.

"Emilia, wh-"

"I have to go." I quickly got up, sucking in a breathe when I moved my ribs the wrong way. My hands clutched my ribs, the sound of Wesley standing up reaching my ears. "Emilia, you better not have any fucking bruises."
