The serum files Chapter 10
(Will's perspective)
Christina's mother is getting remarried. Christina will be the maid of honor and she dragged me to the dress fitting to day.
"So are you going to force me to come to the fitting for your wedding dress" I whisper to her as we walk.
"No, it's bad luck for you to see me in my dress before the wedding" she whispers back with a smile.
If her mother hears us talking she'll ring my neck.
"What are you whispering about? Secrets are for people who have something to hide" Christina's mother says. Her tone implies that she's joking but we do have something to hide.
"I'm saying something endearing" I whisper.
Christina pushes me away giggling "Will stop it!"
"Watch what you're saying William, that is my daughter in her arm" Christina's mother says.
"Yes Ms. Isic" I nod.
"You know you can call me Stephanie" Christina's mother tells me.
'Not until you stop calling me 'William'' I think.
We walk in the doors of the restront.
Christina doesn't eat much and she's had her head resting on my shoulder for the past five minutes with her eyes closed, she looks ill. Stephanie is talking to her at a mile a minute and I don't even think Christina has heard a word she's said.
"Christina are you even listening to me?" Stephanie asks.
I gently nudge Christina "Chris, your mom"
"Sorry" Christina says "what is it?"
"Never mind" Stephanie dismisses.
"Are you alright?" I ask.
"I feel sick" Christina confesses to me in a whisper.
"I'll take you home if you want me to" I whisper.
"No" Christina replies then she leans forward with her elbows on the table and her chin rested on her hand.
I'm about to tell her she should let me take her home, but I know better.
"Christina you've hardly touched your dinner" Stephanie comments.
"I'm not hungry" Christina says simply.
I slip my arm around her waist and kiss her cheek.
"I'll be right back" Christina says quietly before getting up and walking quickly to the rest room.
I follow her. I press my ear against the washroom door. I hear the distinct sound of vomiting. It's signal person restroom so it has to be Christina. I try to open the door and it opens. Christina is kneeling on the floor vomiting violently. I close the door behind me and kneel beside her and stroke her back. After a few minutes she starts to dry heave. I wince every time her body jolts. When she finally stops she sits back. She's pale and looks about ready pass out.
"I'm taking you home" I say.
Christina doesn't fight with me as I help her up and lead her out. I tell Stephanie that Christina is sick and that I'm taking her home, she doesn't object.
I drive Christina back to her house and make her lie down, I get her a glass of water and lie with her until she falls asleep.
It's amazing how something so simple as sleep can change someone's appearance so much. She's tall almost as tall as me, but she's skinny in the extreme, her body bends and curves how it's supposed to. When she's awake these features make her look strong and powerful, yet somehow in her sleep it seems to be those same features that make her seem weak and frail. They are also the reasons I noticed her in the first place these features made me want to study her and from there I fell in love with her…
When I return home I'm met at the door by Cara.
"Where have you been?" she asks.
"With Christina, where's mom?" I ask.
"Out, getting groceries" Cara replies, she thinks I'm up to something, I can tell by the tone in her voice.
"What were you doing with Christina exactly?" Cara questions.
"She was sick I took her home helped her feel better" I explain.
"Not tonight, last night. Here when mom and I weren't home" Cara says.
What did she do? Bug my room? That actually wouldn't surprise me.
"Christina wasn't over last night, she had to help her mother with wedding preparations" I lie. I'm lucky Christina taught me how to hide a lie, yet her own methods don't work on her.
"Really and has Christina ever spent the night here" Cara asks.
"No, of course not" I reply.
"really? So this cute little fitted sweater is yours? " Cara says as she presents one of Christina's sweaters out from behind her back.
"where did you get this" I ask as I take it from her.
"Your room under the bed" Cara says almost smugly.
"Ok, congregations, you found a sweater. But that proves nothing, she could've taken it off and forgot it here one of the many times she been here. Or maybe I like to keep a bin of things for her here in case she needs them while she's her" I say.
"I'm going to find out what is your hiding, I can tell when you're up to something" Cara says.
"That's right you can smell trouble. Smell all you want you won't find anything" I say as I walk off up stairs.
Cara doesn't say another word…
