Author's Note: I'm sorry that it has taken me a long time to post up the next chapter. I haven't had the time with school and all that other stuff. I hope that you like this chapter. I know that it's quite short, but trust me, it is short for a reason. So on that note. ENJOY!

Chapter 2
The person who had called him was Mike Celluci. Henry didn't understand why Mike had called him. Before Henry was even able to speak, Celluci had hung up the phone. He didn't want to have to deal with that bastard. Henry had already decided that if Mike ever bothered Vicki, he would have to put an end to him...literally.
Henry shut his phone and sat down on one of the hospital chairs that was next to Vicki's bed.
"Mmm.." Vicki moaned, trying to open her eyes. Henry smiled. He put his hand back on hers and she intertwined her fingers with his.
"Hey sleepy head." He whispered.
"I feel like hell." She replied.
"Well, you should feel like hell, you were in a car accident. That cab driver should have never been drinking." Henry started to ramble, but Vicki stopped him by flinching. "What's wrong, Vic?"
"No, nothing." She tried to sit up but Henry gently pushed her back down.
"Don't even think about it, Missy. You are not sitting up, you broke your ribs and you need to stop moving."
Vicki whined. "But I have to get back to work." Henry chuckled.
"Wow, you really are insane."
"Ha, ha."
Henry brushed his finger along her cheekbone.
"I love you, Victoria."
"I love you too." She paused and looked at him cheerfully. "Does that mean you'll turn me?" Henry growled.
"Absolutely not!" He raised his voice.
She jumped.
"I'm sorry, my love. It's just that you have no idea how much I would love to change you, but...I can't." He frowned.
"Why not?" She asked pouting.
"Because I don't want you to become a monster like me."
Author's Note:
Yup. I know, short. But you guys were saying 'Oh when are you going to post another chapter'. So, it may be a little while before chapter 3 is up. I haven't even started writing it yet. I know, I'm behind. But thanks everyone who reviewed, it means a lot to me. :) I love you guys.
