The Host, a fanfiction
I carefully opened my eyes.
"Rae," someone said, "She's awake."
I heard footsteps.
"How are you feeling?" my best friend's voice reached my ears.
"Brilliant", I said. I stood up while Melanie handed me a mirror. I looked at myself in the mirror. I remind the same. But it where my eyes, my eyes were back mine. The faint silver ring was gone. I smiled and fell Rae into the arms.
"Thank you", I whispered. It was strange to not feel Rain in my head anymore. We hadn't become such a good friends, but I missed her.
"Rae," a man with a tanned skin walked in, "We're leaving, are you going with us?"
"Yes, I'm coming", Rae answered him.
He turned to Melanie and said: "And you, Mel, are you coming too?"
"No, I think I'll just stay home this time", Melanie said. The man, who must be Mel's boyfriend, walked towards her and kissed her on her cheek. Seeing the love between the two of them hurt me. I knew I've lost my love forever.
"I'll be back soon", Jared promised Mel.
"Like always", Mel responded trustful.
"Grace, do you maybe want to go with them?" Melanie suddenly asked me. My eyes grew wide of disbelieve.
"We're going to take care of Rain in the Summer, going to send her to the Flower Planet", Rae made things clear, "You can go with us if you'd like to."
"Oh, no," I said quickly, "No, I'm fine. I'll just stay here, you should go."
Rae smiled and turned to leave.
"Rae," she turned back to me and frowned, "Take care of Rain," I begged her.
"She'll be fine", Rae left the hospital room.
Suddenly a thought crashed into my mind. An idea hit me.
"Rae," I called. My voice echoed through the tunnel when I ran after her.
"Rae, wait!" I passed her in the garden.
"Rae," I said, "That what you did with me. Making me Soul-free, can you do that with everyone?"
Rae seemed to understand my question.
"Who?" did she ask.
"Simon", I whispered.
There's only one chapter left for me to write and for you to read after this one.
I hope you still enjoy reading and I hope you like my story.
