After Delia
Where are we?" Delia asked confused. "How did you do that?" she asked Stanton. Stanton looked at Serena and she looked Delia in the eye.
"This is my … friend Stanton. He's a follower, but a good one. He is going to help you with your power."
"Oh" Delia said confused. "I thought that we were supposed to destroy followers" she said.
"Well" Serena didn't know what to say.
"Then I can't help you and your sister and protect you from evil" Stanton put in.
"Yeah" Serena agreed. "So can you trust him?" she asked. Delia looked at Stanton. A smile crept over her face.
"Sure" she said. "Why not?"
"Thanks Delia" Serena hugged her sister. Serena paused and felt something wet on her shoulder.
"Delia what is this you have on your shirt?" Serena looked at her hand. "Oh my gosh!" she cried.
"It's not bad" Delia said.
"Stanton where do you keep your first aid kit?" she asked worried.
"In the bathroom why?" he asked
"Just get the stuff and bring it into the kitchen."
"Serena! What's wrong?" Delia asked. "Is it bad?"
"It's ok Delia let me just take a look." Serena tore off apart of Delia's shirt to look at her shoulder. There was a huge, deep cut that went from the middle of Delia's back all the way up to her neck.
"Delia! Who did this to you?" Serena cried.
"I don't know her name." Delia said. "But she did say that if I told anyone she would hurt me more and you too." Stanton walked in and saw the cut. His eyes widened.
"What the heck happened?" he asked. "Delia this isn't good! You're bleeding bad!" Stanton took some goz from the kit and put pressure on the cut.
"Who did this to you?!" he shouted.
"I don't know she said if I told anyone she would hurt me and Serena." Stanton was worried and Serena could sense it.
"You need to try and remember who this person was" Stanton said. "I will not let anyone hurt you or your sister, but you need to tell me." Stanton looked Delia straight in the eye and didn't blink.
"I didn't know her name" Delia said. "She was just telling me how she couldn't wait to fully get my power. Then you started walking towards me and she left very fast. She said that she couldn't wait to fully get my power." Stanton looked at Serena who was about to burst into tears.
"Delia can you wait here honey and lie down for a minute while I talk to Serena?" Stanton asked.
"Ok" Delia lay down.
"Serena a follower is after her." Stanton said.
Serena started to cry. "You think I don't know that?" she said. "Oh god this can't be happening." Stanton walked up to her and took her hand. She squeezed his hand tight.
"Nothing will happen to either of you" he whispered. Stanton took his finger and wiped away a tear from Serena's eye. He was so gentle yet so strong. She closed her eyes and sank into his arms.
"Serena it's ok." he whispered. "Shh don't cry I know what to do." He cupped her face with his hands and lifted her chin. She looked in his mesmerizing eyes.
"I don't know what I'd do without you" she took his hand.
"Stanton-" he placed his finger on her lips. "Don't worry it'll be ok" he said. Serena still knew he was worried but took his words anyways. Her lips met his. Suddenly she was caught in this long passionate kiss. When she came up she cracked a smile to let him know she was feeling better.
"Nice brave smile" he said. Serena laughed it off.
"Umm excuse me?" Delia walked in. "Sorry to interrupt but I remember something."
"It's ok Delia" Serena said and brought her in with them.
"What did you want to say honey?" she asked.
"The girl…" Delia giggled.
"What's so funny?" Stanton asked.
"You are more than just friends" she laughed. Serena laughed too.
"Ok you caught us" she took Delia and put her on her lap. "Now what did you want to tell us?" she asked.
"Oh right the girl" Delia said. "Well I noticed that the letters S-T-A were carved on her chest.
