Sorry I have been kinda busy getting ready for a family reunion comming up. Well here is chapter 2. If you want I will do special requests on a POV. I actually had one sorta like it so now off to London!
(Will POV)
Where is Jem? I need to get his medicine. Lately Jem's condition has gotten worse. He can hardly go on hunts. I looked in the library only to find Tessa. She looked up when the door opened.
"Oh, good evening Will," She said dully.
"Good evening Tessa. Have you seen Jem? I need to give him his medicine." I replied like I didn't care how she acted towards me. I actually do care about her, a little more than I should.
"He might be in his room, if he is not there he might be taking a walk." She then ignored me and turned back to her book. What is her problem? Brushing off the thought I went down the hall to Jem's room. Why didn't I check here in the first place? Opening the door I was greeted by Church sleeping at the foot of Jem's bed. Jem wasn't there. Sighing I put his medicine in his box and quickly headed out of the institute.
(Jem POV) [since I gave a short chapter last time I decided to make this me longer :)]
I feel like there is something missing. Something that should be there but isnt. I was over looking the river, I just took a walk through London trying to clear my head. I felt better today then I have been, but I could still use some rest. Sighing I went back to thinking. What will become of Will when I die? I know he loves Tessa, but why does he keep pushing her away? Why does he push everyone away? I like Tessa too, but she has an entire life ahead of her! I have only a few years left. By the angel I might only have a couple days! Even if Tessa loved me she would just become a widow. I know that it hurts her when Will pushes her away. I know she tries her hardest to make it look like she doesnt care. Why can't Will just realize how much they truly love each other? I miss my parents. I miss the way they would look at each other with such love, love that I could only imagine. A love that I can now never have. Will needs to find that kind of love! I wish I could but I can't.
I stood up and walked back to the institute only to meet Will half way there. I gave him a reassuring to show him that I'm alright. We walked home the reast of the way in silence. Thinking back to my parents I began to truly wish that I could have that kind of love.
I apologize for making Jem a bit depressed but in the books it seems like he really accepts the fact that he is dying but you know that inside he still might be hiding his grief of how he can experience life like others around him can. It plays into the later chapters.
