“I got you.” A familiar voice murmured, lifting me from the ground.
I felt weightless in Carson’s arms. My mind was swimming numbly, struggling to form any kind of coherent thoughts. All I knew was something was desperately wrong with me. My limbs refused to respond, and if they did it was incredibly delayed.
Carson carried me somewhere. Sights and sounds I had experienced multiple times were now completely foreign.
I was thrown on something soft. My mind couldn’t comprehend what it was. My fingers twisted in the soft material slowly, winding and unwinding.
“She didn’t even notice.” Carson’s voice rang out, but I couldn’t understand what he was saying. I could hear the words clearly, but I couldn’t understand the meanings.
In the midst of the absolute cloudiness of my brain, something else was happening inside of me. At first it felt like little pinpricks. Like something hitting against a brick wall. The feeling was like an itch inside my head. It was the only thing I could focus on at the moment.
‘Quit ignoring me, stupid.’
‘Ugh what the h**l have you gotten yourself into.’
Some part of my brain was having it’s own running dialogue.
‘Should’ve listened sooner, d**n it.’
‘Gotta do everything around here.’
A giggle left my lips. I was having an argument with myself.
The itching feeling grew stronger while the brick wall grew weaker.
Something began rushing through me. Something warm and potent was coursing through my veins. Like a gulp of hot chocolate after playing out in the snow all day.
My mind became clearer, and the details around me became much sharper.
I was laying on a bed, and Carson stood only a few feet away. He was talking very animatedly on the phone.
“Carson?” I mumbled, “What happened?”
“S**t.” Carson hissed under his breath, and I wasn’t sure how I was able to hear it.
I could hear someone coming up the stairs, walking down the hall. My mind was beginning to clear, but it was taking longer for my body to get the message.
The bedroom door opened and two people stepped inside.
My stomach clenched and anger swam through me. The anger felt misplaced, like it wasn’t coming from me.
Grace and a dark haired girl came into the room. A malicious look on both of their faces.
“Grace?” My voice was clear, confusion swirling in my words.
The smug look on Grace’s face slipped just an inch as she turned to Carson.
“I told you to give her enough.” Grace spat angrily, “Can’t do a simple f*****g job?”
“I gave her exactly what you told me to.” Carson snapped, “I don’t know why it’s f*****g wearing off already.”
