Hi guys. My name is Lucy and this is my first ever fanfic. This story was something very special to write about, as it gave me a chance to research about Huntingtons disease, and it's symptoms. I hope you enjoy this first fic, and i would be ever so grateful if you would review this chapter to tell me if the story is worth carrying on for. Thank you!


The symptoms

Ethan was lying in bed. A day of happiness and a new birth in the hospital made his night sleep quiet and serene. At the time Cal was out shopping, which was definately strange as Cal never did any work, but Ethan wasn't really thinking as to why he was out so late. All Ethan was really thinking about was how peaceful the atmosphere was without Cal barging through his bedroom door drunk. But anyway, this gave Ethan a perfect chance to catch up on his sleep. He wasn't exactly sleeping well recently, but he just thought it was something to do with the stresses of work, but he was about to find out the correct reason.

At 1:00 am, Ethan was still fast asleep, and Cal was still not home. All was still in the house, but a rustling noise came from Ethan's duvey cover, as Ethan began to move. But he didn't just turn over, he began to jerk rapidly. Sweat started to trickle down his forehead like raindrops sliding down windows. He began to groan, as his whole body now started to shiver and shaking, until his body sharply sat up, with Ethan's eyes both wide open. He began to pant quickly, as though he had just woken up from a nightmare. However, he couldn't exactly remember what he was dreaming about. No, it couldn't of been a nightmare. So what was it? What?

One quick chapter to start the story off. Feel free to tell me what you think. If you like it, i will write another chapter by the end of the week, or next week.
