Possible Return

Bob wandered around the streets after being let out on bail. He was no longer a drunk but once an alcoholic, always and alcoholic. He would go to apologize to the girl he caused so much pain.

He knew where she now lived; he had been there just a few days earlier to get revenge. Revenge was not sweet, it was horrible now that he was sober and knew what he did. Bob knew it was bad but not as bad as it really was.

He walked up to the door of Tori's new house. He knocked and Dustin answered it. Not knowing whom the guy at the door was, Dustin showed Bob to Tori who was starting to wake up.

"Bob?" Tori asked sleepily.

"Bob, I'm staying to make sure you don't hurt her." Dustin cut in.

"Well, I won't be long, I just wanted to apologize for everything that I've done to you in the past two years, especially for the incident a few nights ago. I hope I didn't do anything drastic, I didn't remember anything the next morning."

"Dude, you killed the baby." Dustin almost yelled.

"I did?" Bob was on the verge of tears.

"It was an accident." Tori stated.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know…"

"Neither did I." Tori joked without laughing.

"I haven't had a drink since I got out yesterday, I hope I never do again, I'm just saying sorry before I leave town for awhile."

"You'll be missed." Tori smiled as she sat up painfully.

"Thanks, so, I'll be seeing you around, and oh, before I forget, I knew what Blake did and I know you tried to do everything, thanks for trying to help us. You helped me by helping him." Bob replied.

"Don't forget to visit when you come to town." Tori announced.

"I'd never forget you." Bob smiled.

With that, he showed himself out of the house and pulled out of the driveway before Hunter pulled in with Shane. He saw Bob down the street and ran into the house, worried about the two people in it.

"Hello, anyone conscious?" Hunter yelled.

"Dude, in here." Dustin yelled back.

"What did he do?" Hunter asked, anger rising as Tori walked out smiling.

"Apologized." She smiled.

She was dressed in different clothes and she smelt good. No shower but she probably should not be in water with the bandage anyway. Tori walked to the fridge and pooped the door open, looking for something interesting to eat or drink. Pulling out a bottle of water, she headed back into her room and picked up her book.

The guys sat out in the living room watching a motocross race in some other country. Tori smiled to herself knowing that everything was back to normal. Or at least as normal as it could be considering everything that happened.
