River Phoenix Imagine (Waiting For Him)

eleven

-And I had come to the realization, that it was my blood...

I look at my left arm. There is blood flowing all the way down my arm. Its a real bad cut. Looks about 4 inches, or more, so that's pretty bad, and its rather deep

"What the fuck man" I sigh "that's an unfair Fight, where'd you get that blade?" I ask

"My dads a bikey" he says, cleaning his blade, Cruella is smiling contently to herself

"Its a fair blade, it nice" I say, can't help but say I have a fancy for knives and sharp things ok

"Ok then" he says

"But why pull a knife if its a fist fight?" I ask

"Because, there is no such thing as a fair fight" he drawls

"This isn't the end of this" I say

"At school, Monday" he says

"I can't promise I'll be there" I say

"If your not, your a coward" he says

"I'll try" I say "now I've got to go" I say and grab my bag with my good arm and walk away from them

"You shoulda stabbed her or something" curella whines

"I couldn't, I could only get her arm"he says

And that's the last of their conversation I heard

If I went home, no one would care, if anything mum would say "that's nice honey" or "ok sweetie" and nikkia, shed just laugh. I have blood literally every were on my left side, and there's not much I can do about it. Itll hurt fair enough later though, right now, I can't feel a thing.

That's it, I'll go to river. He said if I ever need anything to go to him. Hell care. He won't say "that's good honey" hell ask if I was ok. And that's all I want right now. Him to ask if I'm ok and to hug me.

Blood loss make you a bit light headed, and that's how I'm starting to feel now. But rivers house is just up a street away now so its not like I'll pass out or anything. I look at my arm. Blood is dripping off my hand but honestly. I don't care.

Good thing there weren't many people on the streets right now, but the people who were, they just stared at me and watched me walk.

+++ three minutes later +++

I'm on the porch of rivers house. I walk up to the door, dump my shit and I knock.

"Who is it?" A voice says, which I know belongs to river

"River its Tashana" I say quickly "um, I need help" I say

He opens the door real quick and looks at me

"Oh my god... Holy crap!" He says "come here quick" he ushers me inside

"Mum!" he calls out

"Yes river" she says

"I really need your help right now" he says, and within seconds Heart is there

"Hello" she smiles, then her expression changes "my dear, What happened? Your face"

"Oh, I didn't know about my face but its actually my arm that's the problem" I sorta laugh and she looks at my arm, gasps and goes wide eyed

"Oh sweetheart come here" she says ushering me to the kitchen

"How did that happen?" She asks

"Its a bit of a story" I shrug

"Well, good thing I like story's then" she says "now, can I get you to wash your arm under the tap?"
