How could he?...Why did he do this to me?
I grip Elijah's jacket more in my first before turning around and letting go of him and starting to speed walk down the hall. "Anna!." I heard Elijah calling out for me but I shook my head as tears rolled down my face.
Adam, you prick!. My hand was clenched in a fist.
I was angry. Angry at myself. Angry at how I didn't see who he was, at first it didn't bother me but then, he went too far. And he was the one who drew the line.
How could I be so stupid?. What I didn't realise was that I had punched the lockers and my hand went numb as I felt liquid running down my knuckles.
I took a deep breath as my hands were shaking, badly. My anxiety, my anxiousness and my stomach felt weird my heart was hurting. Next thing I knew everything started to blur. I felt like I was going to be sick.
Holding my stomach, I turned slowly and I saw a figure coming towards me. They were blurry. So very blurry. It looks like Elijah but I'm not so sure.
I held my chest as I felt like I was having a panic attack and an anxiety attack all in one. I gripped the person in front of me by the arm, and I collapsed to the floor as they held me in there.
"Anna! Anna. Calm down, just breathe!". I heard his soft voice. I smiled slightly. "I-I can't b-breathe." I rasped out through a gasp of air.
"I know, I know baby."
Baby?. Elijah called me baby. Before I knew it, he lifted me into his arms carrying me outside so I could get air into my lunges.
He places me on a bench with chairs and grabs my face making me look at him. "Anna you need to take big deep breaths with me, alright?." He demanded me as I nodded.
"I'll try too." I managed out all in one breath. "Good!".
I took deep breaths in and out of my mouth and nose. I got this, I got this. Just breathe Anastasia. Just breath.
And I did it. I locked eyes with Elijah and copped his breathing. It calmed me down quite quickly. I smiled through it with my eyes on him before nodding at him to say 'I think I'm okay'.
He nodded before grabbing me and hugging me tightly. And I surprisingly hugged him back. I can't believe he helped me with this.
"Thank you, Elijah, for everything." I smiled up at him. He smiled back and tightened his hold on me.
I took another deep breath before kissing him on the cheek. Elijah paused. I stared into the distance as I giggled at him a little. He always is flustered when his around me.
"I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do that, it was just that we were having a moment and I j-just thought it was the right time to-you know." I sighed before looking down at my hands and fiddling with them.
Elijah...laughed. He actually laughed. My head shot up at him as I titled my head to the side in confusion. "What, what did I say?, huh."
I was very confused right now. He kept laughing. This sound, his laugh I never heard of it, until now. It was the best sound I have ever heard from him. I actually made him laugh.
He was so cold at first but not as cold. But now.., look at him. His so perfect to me. Oh gosh, did I really just say that in my head.
Elijah quit his laughter as his eyes moved to mine with a huge grin on his face. He really is handsome. Like very handsome.
He has this beauty of all man that I never seen in my life. I never thought he would be someone special to me honestly, not in a romance way of course but, something like best friends. If possible.
And maybe..., down the road we could be something much, much more then just friends.
"You alright now." He asks me with a smile.
"I sure am, thanks to you of course." I smiled back. And my smile was actually real this time. I wasn't sad anymore, he makes me happy and smile again, and I completely forgot about my relationship with Adam.
It was all suddenly all a blur in my mind.
Because for the first time in a long time, I can be whoever I want to be without getting judged or played. And this man, this perfect man seating right next to me is the person I would have loved to spend my life with, if it is possible too.
