X : Chapter 10
Casey
I’m so excited for my fecha with Carl. My hair is curled (Matthew dicho it looked pretty that way at the wedding.), I’m wearing a silver tank parte superior, arriba that sparkles with all the sequins, and a pair of dark colored skinny jeans. Normally I don’t go for the whole sparkly look, but I thought it would be fun for rock and bowl.
Everything is going great, when all of sudden the lights go off and rock and bowl begins. Carl gets up and asks me to come with him to get something to eat. The siguiente thing I know he’s shoved me into a small storage closet and there’s a cuchillo pointed at me, and he’s trying to touch me. All I can think is how this is it, and I’m terrified.
Matthew
So maybe I shouldn’t have hidden out at the bowling alley where Casey is on a date. It’s not because I’m jealous, it’s really because I’m worried about her. I guess I shouldn’t be though because they both look like they’re having a blast.
They get up to go get comida I guess, and I sink lower into my chair in the janitors closet, I guess this whole spy thing was helped out since my aunt works here.
No one else is paying attention to them. They should. She looks great in that tank top, especially now that the lights are dim.
Then he shoves her into the small storage closet and I’m up out of my chair heading towards them. The moron didn’t lock the door, and he’s got her por a cuchillo point, she looks terrified.
“Don’t tu dare touch her.”
Casey
Matthew has come to my rescue. I should’ve listened to him. This is all happening so fast, and emotions seem out of my reach.
Carl’s attention changes from me to him and Matthew grabs me and pulls me behind him, we’re trying to back out slowly.
“How dare tu interrupt me, and then tell me what to do!” Carl shouts at Matthew.
I have a death grip on Matthew’s arm and his hand. When Carl stabs, I shriek and the música stops.
I barely process anything, Carl running, good civilians tackling him, Matthew falling, sirens, holding his hand, tears, blood, a lot of blood,
“I amor tu Matthew, please don’t die. I’m so sorry. So sorry. Hang on.”
He looks too pale, the EMT guys are putting him in the ambulance, his aunt inside too, there driving away quickly.
The cops won’t let me past. They’re trying to ask me what happened.
“Look I’ll answer ANY pregunta tu have, but not right now. That guy in the ambulancia that was stabbed por the guy you’re putting in the police car, he means the world to me, and I need to be at the hospital so please! Don’t talk to me.” I shove through the circulo, círculo of cops until I see one of the guys that tackled Carl.
“Excuse me sir, can tu give me a ride to the hospital?” he just stares at me.
“Please sir, I know you’ve already done so much for me this evening, tackling that guy, but I really need to get to the hospital.”
He drives in silence, and if I wasn’t so scared of what is going to happen to Matthew, I probably would be scared of this guy too.
We pull into the hospital drop off, and he speaks,
“I’m sorry your friend got hurt. Any guy willing to take a cuchillo for you, well they’re hard to come by. He obviously has feelings for you, and here tu are dating some jerk. Take a good look at what you’ve got around you, because that boy up there took a cuchillo for you, and like I dicho those people in life are hard to come by.”
“Thank tu sir, I couldn’t of put it better myself.”
“My names Derek, I go to your school.”
“Thank tu Derek.”
Then I’m gone running up the stairs.
X : Chapter 11
I’m sitting in the hallway outside the waiting room, I would much rather be inside the waiting room but I can’t take it in there. His family obviously blames me for this. They should.
What Derek says replays over and over in my head. I need somebody por my side. I need my sister
“Ann-”
“Whats wrong?” she cuts me off.
“I’m at the hospital.”
“Are tu okay?”
“Physically yes, emotionally no.”
“Matthew?”
“Yes. How’d tu know?”
“Feeling, be there in 10 minutes.”
“Okay.”
True to her word she was there in 8 minutes, and sitting por my side letting me cry out my story, just letting me cry. All of a sudden she stands up.
“W-W-Where are tu going?” I ask her. My voice shaking from crying.
“I’m going to get some water, and get word on his condition.”
“Okay. Thank you.”
“I’ll bring tu some water too, Casey?”
“Yeah?”
“You should try and call Dad.” Then she’s walking away.
She’s right I’d amor to talk to him right now. I’m in luck too, he’s there.
I poor out my story to him.
“You amor him don’t tu Casey?” He asks me.
“I do, Dad. I think that I do.”
“I knew tu all would end up together.”
“How did tu know?”
“The way tu spoke of him.”
“I miss tu Dad.”
“I miss tu too Casey, and I’m sorry but I can’t speak any longer. amor you.”
“Love tu too.”
“Tell Annabelle I amor her as well please. She’s there with tu is she not?”
“She is, I will. Bye Dad.”
“Bye Casey.”
I’m thinking of the guy that drove me here, and what he dicho about finding someone willing to take a cuchillo for you. Willing to risk their life for you. “I’ll never find anyone like him.” I whisper to myself.
“What’s that?” Annabelle asks me.
“Oh nothing, muttering to myself. Did tu find anything out?”
“Yeah. He lost a lot of blood, but he’ll be okay. They dicho tu could go talk to him in the morning, but right now he’s tired and family got the only visit for today. They’re not happy about letting tu see him tomorrow. They dicho though that he’d been asking to see you, and wanting to know if tu were okay. After all he’s been through he wants to make sure your okay. If tu guys don’t end up married I swear Casey I will personally ship tu off to some-”
“I get it Ann. Dad dicho he loves you.”
“You reached him?” She looks sad, and I know that it must kill her that she missed a chance to talk to him for me.
“I’m sorry tu didn’t get to talk to him, he didn’t get to talk long. He had to go. I’m so sorry, I should of waited till tu got back so tu could talk to him.”
“It’s okay. tu needed to talk to him tonight, I know.” I still feel guilty.
“Come on, tu should get some sleep. Let’s go home.”
“I’m not going anywhere Annabelle.”
“I figured you’d say something like that. Fine. I brought tu a sweater and another pair of jeans, plus some toiletries and such there in a duffel with the nurse at the station. tu need anything call. Kay?”
“Alright Annabelle. Thank you, for everything.”
“He’s a good person Casey.”
“I know. amor ya.”
“Love tu too. Take care of yourself.”
It’s late and the doctors are busy with an elderly women who fell at her home, so after changing and cleaning up a bit I sneak into Matthew’s room. He’s asleep, and looks really peaceful, I smile at him, and pull up a chair siguiente to his bed, I didn’t think I would be able to sleep, but when I take his hand, holding it tightly, I doze off.
End of Part 1 ; Casey’s Happy Ending ?
X: Chapter 12
Casey
I figure I would have been awakened and yelled at
for sneaking into his room, but instead I wake up with a blanket over me, I look over and smile at Matthew’s sleeping form, I slowly take away my hand and walk around the hospital smiling, thinking about my life. I wander back towards his room, it must be about 5 in the morning, but yet when I walk back he’s laying there awake.
“Hey,” I whisper
“Casey?”
“Matthew.”
“You were here all night?”
“I couldn’t leave.”
Matthew
She stayed here all night, waking up and holding
her hand, that wasn’t a dream. What she dicho when I got stabbed that was real.
“Come sit with me?”
“Of course.” She smiles at me, but she’s hesitating standing in the door way.
“I amor tu Casey.” I say, because I do. I’ve never felt this way before. Like my corazón could burst, like never wanting anything to happen to her, just wanting her with me.
“I amor tu too,” She says rushing to my side and laying down on the cama siguiente to me smiling. Holding hands and watching TV in the little hospital room all day. Not much of a first date, but I would have done anything as long as it was with her.
Casey
We’re watching a movie, when I see my sister coming down the hallway.
“I’ll be right back.” I tell him.
I run to her.
“Are tu okay? tu look kind of pale.” I tell her.
“Yeah I’m fine. I just wanted to come see tu and Matthew.”
“Are tu scared of the hospital?”
“No not at all, I was just thinking when I walked in that Dad could end up here. Something might happen.”
“We knew that when he left Ann.” I know she’s scared but worrying about him isn’t going to get us anywhere.
“I stayed here with tu till 1 in the morning last night. There’s no need to talk to me like that. Geez Case.” I can tell she’s hurt, “I mean honestly, tu should be the one person that would see that. That would understand something like this considering what just happened to your little boyfriend, and that it’s your Dad too. I mean really.”
“He’s not my boyfriend, and worrying about Dad isn’t going to get us anywhere.” I mutter back.
“Whatever. I left a few más clothing items with the nurse.” Then she’s storming down the hall, and I would follow but she looks like she needs some alone time.

Part 2, Annabelle's Half
It's so hard to forget
So late at night,
The darkest memory
That leaves me in fright
The color of crimson,
Is scary yet releasing.
Adrenaline builds since then,
And paranoia's increasing
Evening falls,
Ravens call,
And I see
Darkness over me
Don't walk alone
Don't be lost
I'm chilled to the bone
And that's to a cost.
Blood so warm
Words so cold
Get it over with!
This is getting old.
Midnight falls,
Ravens call,
And I see
Darkness overwhelming me
It's so hazy after that,
That's all I can see,
The short, very vague
Dark memory.
