Ch. 10 A Unforeseen Complication
We were still celebrating a few days after the wedding. Finally we got back to a routine. The only difference was that Gabriel now official lived in my apartment. Other then that being married things was not different. I also began to show the weeks after my wedding. My third month check up confirmed it. Gabriel told me again to call Jade. I told him I would do it. I also got to know Nathaniel more. I official meet him in our laundry mat.
"Hey thanks" I said as he picked up some clothes that I dropped.
"Your welcome" He said calmly. From what I could tell he was really polite.
"Hi I am Gabby" I said shaking his hand.
"Hi I'm Nate" He said.
"So how do you like it here" I asked him.
"I like it. The last apartment I had, the landlord was awful" He said.
"Jordon is very flexible with rules" I said.
"Apparently, I got a good deal on the apartment." He said. We chatted a little more. He seemed normal. Everyone else said that he was a little strange. Then I went back to the apartment. I was home alone because Gabriel was at work. Apparently he had been getting a lot of customers.
Hey Honey,
You must be out doing laundry. I just wanted to let you know that I will be home soon.
Love you.
I knew it was a new experience for Gabriel. I could tell he was nervous. He loved it all the same. I dialed the watch shop. Gabriel answered the phone.
"Hey Gabby!" Gabriel said cheerfully.
"Hey Hon, I wanted to know if Lasagna is good for dinner" I asked him.
"Yes! I will make the garlic bread" He said.
"Ok, See you at 5" I said
"Love You" We both said. I put the Lasagna in. I then folded the laundry and packed them away. I then turned on the TV
Police Today have confirmed a second murder in the New York area. The first was in a downtown apartment building. These murders have are similar to ones committed three years ago by a criminal named Sylar. Police can't confirm if it is the same man committing the murders. The man named Sylar has never been found. If there is any information on the case please contact the special hotline.
I then turn off the TV. I knew for a fact that it was not Gabriel doing it. The question was who was. I picked up my phone and dialed. I knew I put off Sylar wish for two long. It was time to make good on my promise.
The next day I waited for Jade in the café that Erin worked at. Gabriel was standing by incase there was any trouble. Finally she showed up,
"Hello Jay" I said as nicely as I could.
"Hello" She said. We both sat down.
"So the reason why I called you is to warn you" I said.
"About what?" She said snotty.
"Well about a month ago I had a dream. You were in it. Someone was going after you. We don't know when, but you're in trouble" I said.
"So you're saying that you want to protect me" She said.
"Jade remember what Sylar use to be like" I said. She nodded.
"Well there is someone else like him, and I don't think I want someone to have an ability like yours" I said.
"I see, well I will keep that in mind" She said.
"By the way, you look like your gaining weight Gab" She said.
"I am pregnant you idiot" I said.
"It all goes down hill after a women gets married" Jade said.
"Gabriel and I are happy." I informed her.
"Good for you, my congratulations" Jade said sarcastically.
"Jade this is serious. If you don't allow us to help you, you could die" I said.
"You would like that don't you" She said.
"Why would I want that?" I asked.
"You always hated me" Jade said.
"Look what all you done to me. I mean you were ready to kill my husband last may" I said
"Oh is that what he is now your husband" Jade said.
"Yes he is, and were going to be having our first child together in a few months too" I said.
"If only daddy could see his perfect daughter now. Married to a watchmaker and is pregnant." She said in disgust.
"I didn't come here to argue with you. I just thought that you might want our help" I said.
"If I want help I wouldn't get it from you" She said.
"What did you say when Arthur shot me, that's right you ran away like you always do." I said arguing.
"He promised he wouldn't hurt you, and what does that have to do with anything?" She asked.
"It means that I am offering to help you after what you have done to me. You just can't be the bigger person" I said getting up.
"He got you wrapped around his finger" Jade said.
"If you change your attitude then call me" I said not responding to her last comment.
It was an unforeseen complication. How could I save Jade when she is refusing my help?
Gabriel told me that it was ok. Nobody said we didn't try. Maybe I was wrong, Maybe Jade would be fine.
"Gabby" Peter said panicked.
"Peter what's wrong it is two o'clock in the morning." I said sleepily.
"Gab, we found Jade. She was attacked. She is going to be ok, but she is traumatized. She has been asking about you." Peter said. He explained the whole story to me. He hung up the phone after he told me where Jade was.
"Gabriel, we have to go to the hospital" I said.
"Why, what's wrong?" He said.
"My sister has been attacked. She is a little freaked out" I said.
"Who attacked her?" He asked.
"I don't know. Peter said she was repeating the same name" I said.
"Which was that?" He said.
"Cypher" I said.
"Oh no, it's happening" Gabriel said.
"What is?" I said.
"He changed his name. It is going to be more difficult now" Gabriel said. I knew he was right. We got a cab, so that I could check on my little sister. My sister now wasn't just a evil bitch to me anymore. She was my baby sister that needs me.
