Chapter 50

He groaned at the ache that soared through his body, every bone feeling like they were being pulled and twisted in all directions.

His father stood up straight, still looking at him with the distateful look, before shoving his hands into his pocket.
Without another word to Nate he strode out of the basement, leaving the door wide open, Nate looked ahead of him, with hazy vision, a busted up lip, a bruised and almost covered eyes, he knew this was his cue to go, his father had just let him go, whether he agreed to it or not.

He sighed out and tried to get up, but he fell back down the moment he felt all the joints and muscles in his body feel like they were being broken all at once.
He groaned out in pain, breathing hard, he placed his palms on the hard floor and relaxed all his weight on them, before slowly using his knees to support himself, he was now hunched over on all fours, his eyes moved to the door again and he swallowed calculating how long it'll take him to get there.

He slowly pulled himself up, feeling the strong ache and the surge of pain in every part of his body, it had been a long time he had felt pain like this.

He managed to keep a steady head, as his head kept swaying from front to back, he stood up and tried to stand straight, but he groaned, his face contorting in pain as he felt the pain in his ribcage intensify, this made him clutch to his stomach tightly as he almost fell down again.

He was panting as he looked at the door, still wide open, he took the first step, feeling like a toddler learning how to walk, he took another and almost lost a step, falling on one knee, he groaned out in pain.

Letting out a deep breath, he used his hand as a support system on the ground to pull himself up again, preparing himself for what was ahead, he managed to move another step, one foot in front of the other, with his body swaying from side to side.
The pain in his body, moving like a virus.

He managed to get to the door as he leaned his frame on it, breathing hard and fast, he swallowed still clutching onto his stomach, he pushed himself off the door and placed his hands against the wall, looking ahead it felt like he was looking at an endless road, his vision swaying from hazy to clear, he shook his head, making his vision steady a bit, he started moving a bit swaying from side to side but the walls served as pillar for him as he walked further towards the steps.

He got close to the steps and stopped, looking down he groaned, dreading the trouble and extra stress and time it would take him to get up this stairs, he sighed out feeling the ache in his head and his stomach, he took the first step, putting his leg on the first stair, he managed to put the other, with his hand still holding the wall.

He traced his steps up the stairs until he finally got to the huge metallic door, he placed his hands on the door knob, and took in a deep breath before pulling the door with all his strength, he felt the joint and bones in his arms ache so badly, he felt like he would actually rip the arm off and rid himself of the pain but that was next to impossible.

He grimaced at the blinding lights hitting his face, he finally stepped outside, swaying in his steps, there was no more wall for him to lean against as he walked, so he had to do it on his own, he clutched to his stomach, he strained and started moving away from the door, groaning and swaying in his steps, he got closer to the living room and lost his step falling down with a loud thud, he groaned feeling his body hit the ground, he felt his whole body lit with unimaginable pain as his head became heavy, along with his eyes, he shut them tight.

"Oh my God" he heard a lot gasp, making him open his eyes, meeting blue, sad and calm eyes staring down at him, he recognized Laura as she stood over him, her eyes glazing with unshed tears.
She quickly bent over him and pulled up his arm, he groaned and grimaced in pains as he felt the ache in his body increase by ten times.
Laura helped him get up, draping one of his arm around her shoulder, she pulled him with her, trying to get him upstairs but he stopped her shaking his head.
"My car" he managed to croak out, he didn't think she'd hear him but she did, giving him a questioning look, he just nodded assuring her that he was sure
