Chapter 12:
Almost a Hit |
I climbed out of Mom's car and waved as she left. I hobbled along the street, using the crutches to support me. I was slow, but that did not bother me. "Watch out!" someone yelled, just as I heard a car coming towards me. I tried to move fast, but was prevented by the crutches. The car barely bumped me, but it still made me fall. Arms circled arround me, catching me before I hit the ground. The person lifted me up on to the curb and set me down gently. "Sarah." Edward's frantic voice said. "Are you all right? Are you hurt?" "No." I said, shaking my head. "I... I think I'm fine. Just... a little shaken." "That's understandable." Edward said. I heard a car door open and footsteps coming towards us. "I am so sorry." a man's voice said. "Is she ok? I didn't mean to hit her, I swear." "It's all right." Edward said, laying his odly cool hand on my shoulder. "She's fine. She barely got hit." I heard the driver sigh in relief. I heard him step closer for a second. He patted my shoulder gently. "Sorry kiddo." he said, walking back to his car. I couldn't help but smile. "You had him worried." Edward said to me. "He thought he killed you." "How do you know that?" I said. Edward chuckled softly before saying, "Magic." |
