Burning Legacy ➳ Liam Dunbar

chapter 41 ➳ weak and helpless

[a/n] so I have no idea what happened but the whole thing wasn't there and I'm so so sorry!

Please comment as much as you did on the messed up chapter 😂

***

January 14th

The arrow slowly releases from my fingertips making it's way directly into the middle of the target.

"Excellent!" Chris argent, himself, yells out clapping away for me.

He was my trainer.

They had told me the story of allison the day I had met him, and he was a wonderful man.

Allison was a beautiful young girl, who risked her life saving her friends, which I admire greatly.

"Kayla remember, when you shoot you have to grab another arrow in matter of seconds. Got it?" Chris explains making me nod.

The bow and arrow I was using was Allison's. I felt honored.

"Great! You're doing an amazing job, okay?" Chris grins down at me.

He was so jolly and nice today, he's usually yelling at me.

Telling me change my stance.

Today was .. different.

1 week later

I hold his hand down the night fallen sidewalk.

"Kayla I need to tell you something." Robin stops me. I was looking at something off in the distance when the words escape his mouth.

"Kayla, I love you."

I snap my head toward him.

"Robin .. I-I-- I don't know what to say." I breath out.

there was a long silence between us.

"I-I really like you. But I'm not sure it's love yet." I whisper.

"I think that was pretty clear. You think I don't see the way you and Liam look at each other. The way he talks about you? Or you talk about him? I see it Kayla. I see it." He sighs and let's go of my hand.

"There's nothing there. Liam is having a baby with Brooklyn!" I exclaim.

"And? Kayla you're so stupid! I'm letting you go because I love you. Because I care. Did he let you go? Did he give a shit when you broke your leg? Was he there?" These questions were something I never had asked myself.

"You've always been there for him, but name one time --" he cut himself off.

"Just think about that." He scoffs and walks off.

Mad.

I shake my head.

Everything feels wrong, and I feel weak and helpless.

Not tough and bitchy.

Weak and helpless.

I walk down the rocky road back up to the house.

I knock on the door.

It was opened by Liam.

"Hey." he smiles.

"Hi." I say softly wanting to walk in.

"You okay?" He asks wearily.

"You okay? You got a pregnant girlfriend to look after." I say harshly walking past him into the house.

I felt myself ache but ignored it.

"Where's Scott?" I ask.

I felt pain everywhere.

like I was dying.

"He-He's in the kitchen." Liam says.

I nod and walk over slowly.

"Kayla you look horrible." I'm greeted by stiles.

"I don't feel to hot either." I felt a strong cough come on.

I rush past him coughing into the sink, blood splattering everywhere.

I feel the room spin.

Usual symptoms.

"Scott." I say weakly.

I felt the warmth of a body next to me.

It was Lydia.

I could see her red locks from the corner of my eyes.

"Kayla, you need a doctor." She insists.

"N-No I'm f-fine." I lean against the sink feeling steadier.

"Robin just broke up with me." I breath out.

The words actually hurt.

"I'm so sorry princess." Lydia consoles hugging me.

"I'm scared." I whisper into her shoulder shutting my eyes.

"Don't be. I'm here." She says softly.

But she wasn't always going to be there.

I'm dying.

I'm going to die.

and nothing could change that.

February 2nd

a week and a half later

I walk down the school hallway slowly, by the looks of it, my bones were showing extremely and I carried bags under my eyes.

I haven't talked to Robin at all, maybe we're officially done.

Maybe.

Did I care anymore?

I was dying. There was no point.

Maybe it was better, maybe I could spare the heartbreak that would hit him.

I'm constantly coughing blood and sneezing, like a cold.

But worse.

"Kayla let me help you." Liam begs once again.

"I'm fine." I bark at him.

Not so powerfully.

"I got it." I hear Gabriela interfere between us.

"Come on Kay." she holds me and takes me to a near by bathroom to help me breath.

I was also loosing my breath a lot.

"Kayla you look so let go." Gabriela sobs softly.

"Gabby I love you. And I promise I'll watch over you. I promise I'm not letting anyone touch you even if I'm not standing on this planet." I say my breath still uneasy.

"Has he spoken to you?" Gabriela whispers.

"No, h-he's said things but small things." I say softly.

we slowly walk back to class.

Something felt wrong about this month.

It was a bad feeling.
