Waking up to the Enemy
Skye's eyelids fluttered a few more times before she slightly opening them, adjusting to the bright light. As Skye spoke her voice was weak and soft,
"What happened?"
Brenda gasped a sigh of relief, "Oh, thank god you're awake".
"Brenda" Skye asked turning her head towards her.
"Skye, you fell at the lakehouse and hit your head on the coffee table, you
were in a brief coma for almost the past 24 hours, how do you feel?"
"Like I've been ran over by a tracker trailer". Skye honestly admitted
after retracting her hand from Brenda's grasp.
"Skye, I'm so sorry, that you fell, it's all my fault".
"Well, that is true, where's Luis?" Skye asked
"He's not here, he probably went home to freshen up".
"How long have you been here?"
"Not long, the Quartermaines were in here first and judging by the flowers,
Carly was here and I'm guessing Jax too".
"And you're here because?"
"Because, I wanted you to know that I don't want Jax".
"That's not what you said at your cottage that day, you were telling Jax he only loved you and that you were meant to be together, then he came back
and told me he need space and we had a huge fight and he went running
straight to you."
Brenda looked at Skye in disbelief, "How did you know about that?"
"Carly and I were there, we were in the kitchen, listening to everything".
"Skye, I only said those things because I thought Jax would defend you and tell me that he had moved on and that he loved you, but he didn't, the man
is truly an idiot".
"Well, that's one thing we agree on."
"Yeah well, I better get out of here before Luis gets here or worse yet
Jax."
"That's a good idea."
Brenda got up and walked to the door, as she was about to open the door she
turned around, "Bye".
"Bye" Skye whispered, then as soon as Brenda left the room and she knew
Brenda was in the clear, she hit her call bell.
Outside were the Quartermaines were talking, Alan heard the call bell go
off, he ran directly into Skye's room.
"Skye".
"Daddy, what happened?" Skye asked dazed.
"You fell and hit your head sweetheart but, everything's going to be okay
now, I promise."
Alan walked over to his daughter, he leaned down and kissed her forehead, "Daddy's here now, I'll fix everything. I have to go inform the others that
you're awake".
As Alan began walk to the door Skye grabbed his hand, "I love you".
"I love you too, Beautiful".
Alan disappeared into the hallway for a few minutes and when he returned,
Monica was with him, "Skye, I want to do a quick exam to make sure you
haven't suffered any long term damage".
"Do whatever you feel you have to, Monica".
"I'll be outside" Alan announced shutting the door behind him. Luis came
around the corner, "Doctor Quartermaine, is Skye awake"
"Yes she is, Monica is examining her now, it will only take about ten
minutes".
"I've waited twenty four hours, what can ten more minutes hurt."
"That's the spirit, have you met Skye's brother?"
"No I haven't"
"AJ" Alan called, "This is Luis Alcazar, Luis, this is my son, AJ"
AJ smiled and shook Luis' hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you"
"likewise" Luis responded, "Have you seen Skye?"
"Not since she's awoke"
"You may see her now, Luis"
"Thank you, Doctor Quartermaine" Luis walked into Skye's room and was
surprised to see her sitting up, smiling at him.
As Luis neared her, Skye patted the bed, he went and sat down beside her,
"I missed you" She whispered
"Not as much as I missed you, I never want anything like that to happen
again."
"Me either."
"You know what has to be done?"
"Yeah" Skye agreed hoarsely
They dropped that conversation in a matter of seconds, all they needed to
know was that they were on the same page.
"When can I leave?" Skye asked hopeful
"Tomorrow morning."
"Tomorrow? Come on my Dad is chief of staff, I'll have him pull some
strings and I'll be out of here this afternoon."
Luis laughed, "Skye, I think it's best if you stay here until tomorrow
morning."
"No, I'd rather go home and be with you".
As always Skye got her way, Alan pulled some strings and she was out before lunch. The past day or so was still foggy for her, but she told herself it was best if she didn't remember all the details anyway, but waking up to
Brenda was horrible.
Luis opened the door of the lakehouse, "Welcome home, Princess"
"Home" Skye whispered, maybe this could be home after all.
"Would you like something to eat?" Luis asked
"No, I'd rather spend some one on one time with you".
"Oh" Luis said as he pulled her close, "Are you sure, you're up for it?"
Her eyes sparkled, "Are you sure you're up for it?"
"I deserved that" He admitted
"Yes, you did" Skye answered, I'm going to put on something more
comfortable, you can start the fire."
A few moments later Skye returned into the living room, the light from the
fire filled the room, making it warm and romantic, there was soft music playing in the background and Luis was standing at the fire place, his arm
resting on the mantel.
She walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his neck, pulling him
closer to him, "I think we haven a lot of things to catch up on, one of
them being physical activity."
He looked deep into her eyes and then wrapped his arms around her waist, his lips met hers and their passion ignited quickly, something about his
kiss made her melt the way no other man could make her.
And that was enough justification for what she had planned.
