Chapter 31
I wake up and nearly fall off the bed that I’m laying on. I need something to catch what is coming up my throat. I’m completely disoriented and confused as to where I am. My stomach keeps heaving but nothing seems to come out. Someone rushes to my side but I push them off. I roll off the bed and crawl to the toilet just in time. The images of Adam and Joseph are still fresh in my head. Once my stomach is settled, I lean against the wall and cry. I don’t really care where I am and I'm not really sure if I am truly awake. I’m not sure how long I’ve sat against the wall crying before I feel someone come and sit beside me quietly. I ignore them as I try to control the images of Joseph and Adam's deaths. I feel a hand touch my shoulder and I shrug it off as I press myself farther against the wall. I hear a mumbled apology and a sigh before I feel them leav

I hear the intake of Derek's breath but I choose to ignore it, for now. "Can I please sign the certificates now, Doctor?" "Sure, no problem. Do you want to contact the Father?" He asks. I freeze for a second. Who does he think the father is? "No, no need. He's dead." I say, barely able to control the tears. "Are you sure? He may be old but I'm sure that he'd want to know." Bernie asks. "Yes, I'm sure. I watched him die, okay? I watched someone kill him and, again, I did nothing about it. Except this time, there was no one holding me back. Then, I go and get myself captured

Chapter 33
I hear someone walk into the room and I open my eyes. Somehow I had rolled over and was lying with my head against Derek's chest. His chin is lying on the top of my head so I can’t see who entered. "Well, what have we here?" Bernie asks teasingly. Derek obviously didn’t hear him enter the room because he jumps and falls out of the bed. I can’t help but to laugh. He reminds me of a kid that just got caught kissing his girlfriend, by her parents. Bernie was laughing, too. "Not funny, Bernie." Derek says, with a sheepish smile. "Actually, it was very funny." Bernie teases. "You would have thought that I had just caught you doing something illega

I’m still crying when Derek shows up. When he notices me, he puts the food down and nearly runs to me."What did you say to her, Bernie?""I told her some necessary things. If she wants to tell you, she can. It is not my place. Before I go, I need to let you know that you will need to stay here for a couple of days. After that, I have arranged a meeting for you with Meril, but Derek will have to go with you."I don&rsquo

Little Info
  After I finish this story, I will be working on another one that I started in 2012. Due to some unforseen things, I never got to finish that story. It is about a war between vampires and aliens, leaving the humans to decide which side to choose. Let me know what you think. Would you be interested in reading something like that? There are going to be a lot of elements in it that I don't really want to get into too much detail about. I will be also completely rewritting the whole of what I have already written in regards to that story. It's about 30 or 40 chapters that I am going to be rewritting. I still have not figured out if I am going to do it in a series form or just one large book. What do you think? Do you prefer a series or one novel. If it is a series, it will probably be broken into four or five books.

I wake, curled up, alone in the bed. It feels really cold but I can’t find the blanket. Derek is sleeping on a cot in the corner. I need to use the restroom so I quietly slipped out of bed. Hesitating for a few moments, to make sure my feet are securely planted, I let go of the bed. I feel a little wobbly but it feels like I have enough strength to make it.I just keep telling myself that it’s like riding a bike.I put one foot down, steady myself, and then switch feet. I don’t make it very far though. Only halfway there my legs finally c

Chapter 36
I’m completely bored and almost asleep when Bernie finally comes in. "Where's Derek? He said that he was going to be here." "He must have forgotten that he had some errands to run." "Well, we are ready to work on your rehabilitation. Derek was going to be your support. If he doesn't make it back in time, I can always have one of the nurses help you." "When am I going?" "In about thirty minutes. Do you think that he

Derek wasn't kidding about the pushing. Bernie made me push weights, walk around the hospital, walk on a treadmill, and walk in a pool. That’s a lot of stuff but I can only do a little at a time. I’m too weak to do anything else. I’m so exhausted, at the end of the work out, so I just sit in the shower.What I don't expect, is that I would be unable to stand back up. I don't want to have to call a nurse to pick me up, so I holler for Derek. He

Chapter 38
Being at Derek's house feels a lot like being at home. He has a ‘Welcome Home’ banner on the living room wall. I teasingly roll my eyes and stroll towards the guest room. When I round the corner, I accidentally run into someone and fall. Derek, who had been carrying my bags, turns around the corner at the same time that she says, "Whoa, I'm sorry." "Liz?" “Surprised to see me?”

Chapter 39
Liz doesn’t have a car so we take Derek's truck. I sit in between Liz and Derek, while Liz drives. I lean my head against his shoulder while he holds my hand. I stare out at the window and remind myself that I can, and should, have some fun. The museum is about twenty minutes from the house. I take this time to get to know more about them. Liz and Derek like the same music that I listen to, except now it is considered oldies. When I start singing along, it shocks everyone, even me because I actually remember the words. I don’t remember a lot of things but I remember these lyrics as easily as I
