AN: Thanks so much for reading! I love all the reviews, so if you review thank you so much. I'm a little disappointed because I haven't gotten any ideas for another story. So, if you have any ideas tell me by PM or review!
Jess POV
Mom doesn't remember us. At all. She has to stay in the hospital overnight though. Dad insists we stay with Christina and Will instead of in the hospital. Dad has been sitting with Mom, talking. She probably thinks we are weird. I know I feel weird having to tell her about myself. Nat starts training again tomorrow. Dad has analyzed the video footage but he hasn't gotten anywhere and Mom's attacker is still unknown. '
I fall asleep in Mila's room with Nat and Mila.
When I wake, I look around Mila's room. 'If a monster stopped behaving like a monster, did it stop being a monster?' The quote was in bright purple painted on the wall. I knew Mila was into this literature stuff, but I never knew this much. I wake Mila and Nat and remind the of training. Nat groans.
"Dad is training again, and he is bringing Mom" I say. Nat sighs.
"Let's get ready" she says. I get dressed in a black crop top and black ripped jeans. I pull on a dark purple leather jacket and combat boots. I eat one of Christina's fresh blueberry muffins before leaving for the infirmary.
I see Dad and Mom standing at a counter, talking to the receptionist.
"Ok, thank you" the receptionist says. Dad turns around and gives me a hug.
"Hey Jess, where's Nat?" he asks.
"Getting ready. She is so lazy" I say. Dad chuckles lightly.
"And Carter?"
"Hanging out with his friends" I say.
"Ok"
"Hey Mom" I greet.
"Hello. Where are we going?" she asks.
"The training room" Dad says.
"Oh, I think I like it there" Mom says. Dad smiles sadly.
The three of us head to the training room. All of the initiates are already there. I heard Christina cut a few, but unfortunately Brooke is still here. Dad says she will break during the sims. After that he said that he wasn't supposed to tell me about the sims. Oops.
"Alright initiates, today we are doing simulations" Dad says. They groan. I guess they already did them once. I take a seat along with Mom.
"What are simulations?" Mom asks.
"I'm not quite sure, but the initiates have to face their worst fears in a fake landscape" I say. Mom shudders.
"Sounds scary" she says. I grin.
"You got first place when you did them" I say.
"Really?" she asks.
"Yeah. You are a legend. You only had six fears when the average is like, 15" I say. She looks incredulous.
"I'm pretty sure I had more than that" she says.
"Well you did have seven, but you got over one. You never told us what your fear was though" I say.
"Hmmm . . . I'm pretty sure it's bugs" Mom says. I laugh.
"Impossible! Carter has to get you to kill the spiders that make their way into his room. After that, you chase him around the house with the dead spider!" I say laughing. She laughs too.
"Guess it's not bugs then" she says.
"Break!" Dad yells. Strange. There usually aren't any breaks.
"How are you?" Dad asks Mom.
"Good. Jess is really nice" Mom says.
"We did a pretty good job with this one. That one on the other hand . . ." Dad says, pointing to Nat, who had just walked over. Nat punches his arm lightly and he feigns pain. Mom laughs lightly.
"You did good kiddo. Fastest time so far" Dad days to Nat.
"Thanks" she says. Just then, Luke walks in the training room. We have never been super close to Luke.
"Hey Nat" Luke says as he approaches.
"Hey" Nat says. They stare at each other a little longer than what is publicly appropriate.
"Right here, you know" I say. Nat blushes.
"Anyway, what did you need, Luke?" asks Dad.
"My mom just wanted to check in" Luke says.
"Oh, tell her that everything is good and Mila did well" Dad says.
"Will do sir" Luke says, and then he leaves.
"Is he your boyfriend?" asks Mom to Nat. I snort.
"No" Nat blushes.
"She hasn't even had a boyfriend yet" I say.
"Really?" Mom asks.
"Hey, I turned James and Kevin down" Nat snaps.
"That's my girl" Dad says. I laugh.
"Breaks over!" Dad yells, startling Mom. He smirks at her, just like old times. She crosses her arms and glares, but her face soon breaks out in a smile and we laugh.
The initiates finish training while me and Mom chat the rest of the day. Mom is still confused on a lot of stuff and she doesn't know much about us. I heard Dad is going to take her to their spot after dinner. I think she is getting better. I hope she is getting better.
AN: Sorry for the short chapter, it is a filler. I hope you enjoyed, and I promise a longer chapter soon. Please review and send in those ideas!
