Coma

Tristan watched the two kids who has fallen asleep during their chat. What could two children and an adult possibly talk about? They were talking about milk. Can you believe it?

Alan said he hated milk, didn't like the taste and Tristan and Andrews were busy doing a presentation about how good milk was, both for the body and mind.

Even with it being two against one, Alan still didn't give up. They didn't win against him and that lead to more pursuing until the two kids fell asleep.

The score was 10-10, that means, no one won. But Tristan wasn't giving up, they were going to continue this tomorrow morning and he wasn't going to lose.

He clenched his fist with a 'I got this' look. One can say, Tristan was very passionate when it came to milk.

He unclenched his fist and sighed, he wondered what was going on and why Lvan wasn't back yet. He missed him so much and wanted to see him.

Wow! How crazy, he just saw him an hour ago. Okay, so an hour was far too long. When was he coming back? He wanted to see him, touch him, hold him and kiss him. Those lustrous cherry lips of his that called for him every time he saw his mate.

He wanted a taste of those lips.

'Oh, right, the mind link thing' he thought when he realised he could talk to lvan with his mind and no matter how far lvan was, he would always hear him and he (Tristan) also would always hear him.

'Lvan? Can you hear me?' It took only a second before Lvan answered, 'Yeah baby, what's wrong?' Lvan asked, Tristan could sense his love was already getting into worried mode.

'Nothing serious, I just want to know where you are and when you'll be coming back. I miss you' Tristan said the last sentence in a childish tone.

'Cute. Don't worry, I'll be back in no time'

'What's happening?' Tristan asked, curious to know what was going on out there. He wondered if they were attacked or something. But on second thought, no, if they were under attack then it wouldn't be this quiet, screams, shouts, yells, growls, snarls and other sounds during a battle could be heard.

But he didn't hear sounds like that. For a second, he swore he heard Lvan sigh before he heard Lvan's next words, "Colten got stabbed while trying to save Chris'

'Oh, my God!! Is he okay?' Tristan exclaimed in horror, concern for Colten. He's spent time with Colten while everyone was busy and he got to know him better. Colten was a kind person and a good ally to have. His time with him was also entertaining, amusing and fun. He has come to like him a lot, of course as a friend.

And now, all of a sudden, this news? He didn't deserve this.

'I left before I could get any news on him from Dr Jones" Lvan said. Tristan ran his hand through his hair in frustration and devastation. "Oh, and, don't worry. Roy and Corey will be going on the mission to recuse Jake tomorrow'

'Oh, yes, I see. Thanks' Tristan managed. 'Are you okay Tristan?' Lvan asked, worried. Tristan's voice didn't sound good to him and he didn't like it either.

Gosh, this guy doesn't like a lot of things.

'I'm fine. So, who attacked them?' Lvan hesitated to say who it was because he didn't want Tristan to worry too much. The old man wasn't caught too.

But he did anyway.

'Four' So, he was the reason why lvan had to leave him after their mind blowing sex when they should have been cuddled in bed. That old man had a lot of nerves and he was going to know what it meant to mess with him.

Before that, he had to say this,

'I knew it. I knew something bad would happen with him out there. Was he caught?' And his baby asked the million dollar question. A question he didn't want to answer but knew perfectly well that he had no choice.

'No, I'm on my way now to issue orders for his arrest' hearing that didn't help Tristan relax or ease up. This was like the second worst news he has received this evening. The first was about his Jake, his brothers and Colten's attack and the second was this old man who wouldn't leave them in peace. Just what wrong did they do to him?

'I see. Then please hurry back, I miss you'

'I know, I'll be back in no time" lvan replied. An ever so familiar sweet feeling rushed through Tristan like a shaken can of Coca cola. A sweet smile spread on his lips. The smile that always drove lvan insane. Too bad he wasn't there to see it.

Chris, Marie and Jack were outside of Colten's room, waiting for news. It felt like forever as they waited. Chris was doing his best to control the beast inside of him or his wolf would take charge and burst into the room like he owned the place.

His wolf didn't own the place and we all knew who the master was.

He sighed, running his hand through his hair while giving his back to the door. 'I'm going insane' he thought and he sure was. He has experience this kind of serious situation before and at that time, again, it was Colten who got hurt, trying to save him.

The year was unclear as he has lived for a long time, but, he remembered, at that time when they were chased by a group of humans who wanted them dead. Back then, humans absolutely hated paranormal beings. And we all know people fear something they don't understand and in due time, this fear turns into hatred. More like it becomes the combination of fear and hatred.

Back then, he felt like his world has come to an end when he saw Colten wounded. He felt his heart froze in place before it begun to shatter into pieces. At that moment, he couldn't breath, it was like he forgot how to breathe and every thought flee out the windows except the fact that Colten was wounded.

He could died, he could leave him forever and that thought alone was strangling him to death. He didn't like the idea of Colten leaving him and he didn't think he would be able to live if Colten left him.

But somehow, tonight was different. He couldn't understand or put it to words but it was like the feelings he had before when Colten got hurt in the past (while they were being hunted down) was different this time. it was the same feeling yet it was not. It was like the feelings he was having tonight has intensified 10times the feelings he had in the past.

What was going on with him. His heart was racing madly in fear of losing Colten. His body was breaking, his mind was in chaos, he was going insane with thoughts and his wolf wasn't helping with the sadness, loneliness and grief mode he was in.

Why was he grieving anyway? Colten wasn't dead and he wasn't going to die.

He had to hold himself with this thought because he knew, he wouldn't be able to live either, if he lost Colten. Colten was a lot more than just a friend to him. He has become a very important friend to him over the centuries as he was the only one he had then. The only one who was with him, stayed by his side.

The door suddenly opened, drawing everyone's attention including Chris who snapped out of his thoughts and got up from the floor, standing three steps from Dr Jones as he stood in front of him.

He looked anxiously and impatient at Dr Jones who hated himself for bringing them this news. This news he knew won't a good.

"He's in coma" he blurt out. Marie eyes widened in shock before tears made their appearance. She hugged her husband for support and comfort which Jack didn't disappoint her, holding her tight and stroking her hair in a comforting way.

Chris's eyes were still widened in shock, his eyebrows furrowed. Just what did he hear? Colten. Colten was in coma.
