High School Hell: part 2

The elevator doors opened and we stepped out as we walked out of the elevator I saw Nikki pointing us out to the Girls varsity soccer coach. She stared at me and shook her head. We walked to the ticket line and handed our tickets to the dean, he and I are good friends so he let us in no problem. But as we walked towards the dance floor I heard my name being called. Turning around I saw The soccer coach and the principal beckoning me over to their table. As I turned to join them Michelle, stopped me and said " I"m going to the bathroom, I"ll come back when I"m done." 

" Ok, Love you," I said and kissed her lightly on the lips.
As I joined Coach J and Mr. Stevens I braced myself for the onslaught.
" You do realize that you and your acquaintance are severely out of dress code, backless, halter, and single strap dresses are not allowed. Not only that but you have visible tattoo"s, what is that on your chest"" He inquired.
" It says I love Michelle" I told him
"You love Michael," he said
" No I love MICHELLE." " The acquaintance you were referring to, that"s Michelle." I said
" I see" he and coach J exchanged knowing looks
"Well, there will be severe consequences for your blatant disregard for school rules," Mr. Stevens replied.
"You will be suspended for the next two weeks, and removed from the varsity girl's soccer champions plaque." He added
"OK," I replied sounding non committal
" What do you have to say for yourself." asked coach J
" well, is this about us breaking dress code or me bringing my girlfriend to prom." I said not bothering to beat around the bush.
"Do you want to be expelled," asked Mr. Stevens
" I really don"t care anymore." I replied
" I think your parent"s will care." he said
" I"m eighteen and I don"t live with them anymore." I added " now try again." 

He stared at me lost for words.
" Now if you"ll excuse me there"s a gorgeous girl waiting for her date, good night." and with that I walked away.
I went out to the dance floor looking for Michelle but after twenty minutes I didn"t find her. I called the limo and told him to meet me out front, then I went to the bathroom to find my girlfriend.

As I opened the door I called out her name, " No don"t come in here" she screamed she was being held in the corner by Nikki and her friends. 
" I already warned you that was your last shot now you deal with me" I growled. 

Charging forward I dropped Nikki with a right hook, and I leveled Amanda with a combo. " got to thank mom and dad for the ten years of Karate," I thought I heard the door open and spinning around I saw a blur coming forwards and then something hit me in the chest. I felt a sharp pain but, barreling on I smashed the new comer through a toilet stall. It was Nikki"s boyfriend. As he lay there unconscious with the rest of them, I hoisted Michelle to her feet and we sped out of the bathroom. We ran down the stairs and out into the limo. As the driver pulled away I looked at Michelle and said " You ok love," 

" Yeah" she said "thanks for saving me"
" What no kiss" I grinned, still feeling the pain in my ribs, it was getting hard to breathe.
She leaned over and placing her arms around me kissed me softly. As she touched my ribs pain blossomed over me and I cried out.
"What is it, T" she cried

I was fading in and out I tried to tell her it but I couldn"t breathe. Pulling her hands away from my side she looked at her palm, it was covered in blood, my blood. 
"Driver" she screamed "take us to the hospital, and call an ambulance."
We squealed to a halt in front of the hospital two blocks away. As the paramedics rushed out Michelle was shunted to one side. 
"Michelle," I called " Tell Michelle I love her," I told one of the EMT"s 
"Sure sweetie," she cooed back to me we"ll tell Michael anything you want.
The words and actions of the people around me as I was rushed into the hospital made no sense. I was fading fast and I still had so much to live for. Suddenly Michelle was at my side " I love you," I whispered 
"I know" she replied 
As the darkness enveloped me I heard her last words echoing in my head.
" You promised you"d never leave me Trina." she sobbed 
" Don"t leave me, please don"t leave me." she was sobbing uncontrollably.

I couldn"t respond. The doctors whisked me away into surgery trying to save my life. 
MICHELLE
As they whisked her away all I could think was she was trying to save me. Almost as if I was dreaming I called her parent"s and told them she was in the hospital, and I called my mom and told her Trina was in the hospital. Trina"s parent"s arrived first.
" You did this to my little girl" screamed her mother trying to hit every inch of me.
" You dirty lesbian, this is all your fault," she yelled " If my little girl dies, I will hold you personally responsible."
I didn"t even try to stop her from hitting me I just sank to my knees.
"Your right," I whispered
" What" her mother demanded
" Your right, it is my fault she was trying to protect me." " if I hadn"t been there she"d be fine." I sobbed.

Just then my mother walked in and saw me on the floor face red from Mrs. Daly"s blows, and sobbing uncontrollably. 
" Is she alright," asked holding her breath.
" She"s still in surgery." I said.
And we sat there it seemed like days but it was just two hours.
A tall doctor in blue surgeons scrubs, walked over and introduced himself. 
"How is she" we asked
" well," he said " The stab wound wasn"t very deep, but it put a nick in her diaphragm, which is why she couldn"t breathe. I sewed up her diaphragm, and she should be back to normal in about week." He said cheerily
I breathed a sigh of relief.

" Can we see her" asked my mother
"She is awake but only family can see her." " She has requested that "Michelle" come and visit her right now but, I think she meant Michael."
" No" I said rising to my feet " She meant Michelle," 
"OK then" he replied " this way,"
He led me down a seemingly endless corridor. To room 118, opening the door for me he said to try not to excite her.
I stepped into the room shocked to see my normally vibrant and full of life lover, lying still on a hospital bed, machines monitoring her every breath. As I walked into the room, she opened her eyes and looked at me.

" Hey," she said weakly "What no kiss,"
I stood next to her bed and started to cry, " If it wasn"t for me you"d be fine, I"m so sorry it"s all my fault."
"No," she said "if it wasn"t for you I"d still be denying my feelings and forcing myself to have sex with men."

"you saved me once I was just returning the favor," she smiled "come here, and she patted the space next to her. My mom had brought me a change of clothes so I climbed up onto the bed next to her. She rolled to the side and leaned her head against my chest while laying her right arm across my stomach. She kissed me softly and said, " I promised I'd never leave you, and I always keep my promises." As I lay there drifting off to sleep I prayed that the next day would be better for us. I closed my eyes and I fell asleep, to dreams of a house with matching motorcycles parked in front and, a soccer field in back.
