Ch. 14 Fight from the Heart
Elle and Erin were now living with me. I liked living with other people again. I was so happy that I didn't have to worry about Peter being said to see Erin go anymore. Elle was now a doctor at the same hospital where Peter worked. Both Erin and Elle have become two of my best friends.
On Saturday Elle and Erin decided to go shopping. Erin was now able to walk by herself. We were all happy. Erin revealed that before the accident she was able to manipulate electricity. Elle was a healer, a very good one too. I know that Elle was still concerned about Erin. What would Erin do if she lost her ability? I know Peter was trying to make that idea less scary for here, if I ever lost my ability, I would freak.
The doorbell rang. I opened the door to see Sylar in the doorway. I was so happy to see Sylar. I was worried that he might have relapsed.
"Hey Gabby" He said it distractedly.
"Hey Sylar! How have you been?" I asked him
"What no Gabriel" He said. He seemed distant. I am not so sure I like it. I didn't push him any further. He was acting strange.
We didn't even get started when there was another bell rang. It was Peter. I opened the door. Peter's eyes immediately went to Sylar
"What is that Bastard doing here?" Peter said calmly. I could tell he was trying not to scream. It was then I realized I didn't tell Peter I was helping Sylar with his ability.
"I have been helping Sylar" I tried to explain myself/
"Gabby, why didn't you tell me?" Peter said.
"I didn't think it would be a big deal" I said. Why was he acting this way?
"Well it's obviously a big deal." Peter said
"I have to help him Pete" I said
"Well how I am supposed to feel now?" Peter said. Before I could say anything to calm him down, he left.
"He has a right to be mad" Sylar said behind me.
"What do you mean?" I asked him
"If my best friend was working with a person like me, I would be mad to" Sylar said. I hate it when he is right.
What Sylar did know was a complete shock. He kissed me! He stepped away from me after a few minutes. Then I kissed him back. Suddenly I came back to my senses.
"What the hell was that for" I said after I slapped him in the face.
"You kissed me back" Sylar smirked.
"Get out of my apartment!" I yelled at him. His smirk immediately leaving his face. Sylar ran out of the house. He knew he most of done something wrong, he just didn't know what.
I was so confused. Why did he kiss me? Did I like him? I hope I didn't do anything to mislead him. What about Peter? He seemed really mad that Sylar was even in my house. That night I told Erin and Elle about what happened. They tried calming me down. They both agreed that I just needed to let Peter calm down. Erin and Elle both smirked when they heard I kissed Sylar back. It reminded me what happened the other day.
Flashback:
Erin and Elle were bringing there things to their new rooms. It was the day after Elle got the job offer.
"Gabby I just wanted to thank you for everything you and your boyfriend have done for my sister" She said tearing up.
"Boyfriend? Oh Sylar is not my boyfriend." I said quickly.
"Really? The way you two act around one another thought he must be" She said confused. Elle and Erin suddenly went into a huge discussion on mine and Sylar's relationship
For two weeks I tried calling Peter. He wouldn't answer. Sylar also didn't seem to want to talk to me. He didn't even show up for his session on Saturday. Finally on Sunday I got a hold of Peter.
"Peter why haven't you been answering your phone calls?" I asked him.
"Because HE might be there" He said coldly.
"What do you have against Sylar?" I asked him.
"Well first off he tried to kill me a couple of times, and he murdered my brother1" He said Peter wasn't finished.
"I had to hear it from Noah that your were helping that murdering bastard" Peter yelled. Something snapped inside of me.
"I am sorry bro, but you just don't see the Sylar I know" I said. I started yelling.
"I finally found somebody I can be myself around. I really like him" I didn't know where this was coming from.
"He killed Nathan" Peter snapped.
"You're just mad because he has ability and you don't! I ranted. "Your ability is not that good either. Who was the one that wanted to blow up New York" I finished. Suddenly the line went died. This conversation didn't go as I had planned.
After the phone call with Peter, that was when the sleepwalking started.
"Gabby wake up!" Erin said shaking me one morning. It took me a moment to realize I was one the floor. I know I had been in my bed, I must have slept walked. It was weird, I never slept walked before. It worried me. Elle said it was probably just stress from fighting with Peter. After awhile I began to agree with her. Me sleepwalking must have been caused by stress. What else could it be?
