Chapter 7: I missed you
Hey guys! So, one of my resolutions this year was to update my story more and work on my writing skills! So, I will be trying to post twice a week! Hopefully you enjoy this chapter, again, it's kind of short, but next chapter will be present time!
I KNOW LOTS OF GRAMMATICAL ISSUES
DPOV:
After about 30, impatient minutes, Lissa emerged from the door. Cheeks stained with tears and eyes bloodshot. She nodded toward the door and mouthed 'Go' so I did.
I hadn't expected her to be asleep, so I worried. But it turned out I could save my worry and banter for later…
When I walked into the room I was greeted by guardians and met by the familiar beating of a heart on the machine and the smell of… well hospital. I walked into the door, passed through the curtains circling the door and walked hazily until I saw her.
Her hair was a bit disheveled, but it didn't make a difference. She was still as beautiful as the first day I met her. She was covered in a few scratches and she looked… tired. Which is surprising as she is sleeping.
I kneel down beside the hospital bed on the right side and take her hand in mine, she starts stirring and making noises, but I rubbed random shapes across her palm and this seemed to calm her. I then went ahead to kiss each of her knuckles, savoring the feel of her soft skin against mine.
Looking at her now, seeing her safe was as if the whole in my heart was gone. Healed. As if it was never there. And all of my worries just became a buzz in the back of my mind as I looked at her beautiful face. I just wanted to wrap her in my arms and never let her go.
I then sat at the edge of the bed, holding her hand, I sang her a song my mother used to sing to me when I was little in Russian "Все будет хорошо, любовь моя. Не нужно беспокоиться. Завтра солнце будет светить так ярко, что вы сможете справиться со своими заботами ..." (translation: It will be okay, my love. No need to worry. The sun will shine so bright tomorrow, so you may get through your worries...)
My voice soon faded away as I got lost in the thought of her here with me…
SPOV: (Sydney point of view)
"Rose!?" I yelled, in our conjoined Motel rooms. I had just woken up form the couch, phone dead, and Rose nowhere to be seen. I had been looking and asking around if anyone had seen Rose… and had a charger.
When I finally received a charger, I plugged my phone in, impatiently waiting for the apple logo to appear. Where was she? I wouldn't be surprised if Rose left to another mission but usually she would alert me first, or come back.
When the logo finally appeared I quickly opened up my phone to see several calls from her, and several. First, I called her back, only for her phone to go straight to voicemail. Now I was nervous.
I opened my emails, and read about 5 stating the newest news about the Moroi. One being an attack of Strigoi near the mall and case closed. Oh no. Rose was supposed to be at the mall. The case was her case!
"Ohh, no, no, no!" I quickly went forward and packed my bag before heading out in the car to get going. The Alchemists could be coming here to stay, to see the damage, and I'm not supposed to be anywhere near here.
Once I hopped into my Honda my phone began ringing, hope it was rose I answered it without a fuss. Only to find it to be Adrian.
"Hey, Sage. Um, where's Rose!?" Adrian squeaked in the phone
"I- I don't know, she went out on a mission and then she was gone"
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yes, but Rose-"
"I know, sage. I know"
DPOV:
When I finally emerged, I found Lissa in the waiting room, with Christian by her side who wasn't here earlier-he was with Tasha who wanted to go, shopping-and they looked ready to go.
"Ready to bring her home?" Lissa asked
"What do you mean?" I asked, very confused
"We're taking her back to court" she finished, a happy smile and tears appearing. At that I smiled.
"Can you talk to her, in your head?" I wondered out loud, at this, Lissa nodded before talking,
"I've tried, but its like she doesn't hear me or can't reply, but I feel she's there"
I nodded and at that, Lissa called Guardians to escort Rose to the car, where I was allowed the honor to sit in one of the Vans with her as-reluctantly-Tasha sat in the other van with Lissa and Christian.
The ride was only about an hour and a half, but halfway through, my phone rang and the driver handed me my phone which was charging.
"Hello?" I asked
"Hey, is she awake?" Lissa's hopeful voice asked, and at that I went and looked at her, what I'd been doing for the whole ride, remembering every part of her, the curve of her lips and shape of her nose and softness of her skin,
"Um... no." I finished
"ok, well, don't worry"
"I know" I said and we ended the call.
And then, beside me, rose's figure looked up.
"Well, hello their Comrade"
Oh,
Well, there's another chapter done and dusted. Hope you enjoyed!
