Providence was so...dead without Rex. My days were spent doing more tests for Holiday and practicing my powers. My puppy slept too much and when he woke up, I spent all my time with him. I did what I was supposed to do but my mind was elsewhere.
It was always elsewhere.
Dr. Holiday kept telling me to get the crystal again but that was a complete and total failure. I only glowed until that entire glow went to my chest and then died out. Nothing worked and I don't even care.
I just wanted Rex back. My nightmares were more consistent.
It was always about some man ranting about the nanite crystal and my sister crying and Rex, Six, and everyone dying in front of my eyes and I couldn't save them. My chest would ache and burn until my body shook with fatigue and sweat. I felt like the walking dead. I keep remembering my parents and my heart would squeeze and I would double over in pain and hurt because I would miss them so much. I cried and cried because of my grief until I fell asleep and I would feel sick in the day. I did what I was told but my mind was elsewhere.
Always elsewhere.
I kept remembering our kiss and I wanted so much more. I wanted to run my hands through his hair, run my hands against his broad shoulders. Thinking about that kiss made me feel a little better but it wasn't enough. I wanted him near me and Bobo was affected also because he was bored.
Six tried to get me to talk but I didn't say anything. He tried using my loneliness against me but I've felt lonely before and I'm sure as hell this won't be the last time I'll feel alone. He tried to get Bobo to talk about where Rex and said something about him being somewhat expendable. Bobo lied to Six about where Rex was headed and Six believed him. Six was coming back and Holiday, Bobo and I were tracking Rex's activity. At least I knew he was out smashing things which meant he was alive.
Was it me or did I smell Pizza?
We heard Six come up and we turned around to see him.
"Have a nice trip? Ha-ha-ha. Let's get one thing straight pal. I would never rat out my..." Six pulled out a pizza which was Bobo's favorite food and would do anything to get one and I really do mean anything. "Oooh, he's going west."
I gasped. "Bobo!"
I can't believe he ratted him out for a box of pizza. At least Iwas the faithful one.
"What? I'm hungry." He said grabbing the pizza and walking away.
"He's going to kill you!" I yelled, walking after him.
Well, Rex might come back now since Six knew where he really was.
