Author's Note – Hi everyone! Last week I started Semester 2 at school so I have been really busy with a tonne of homework and stuff like that, I just haven't had enough time to plan out my next chapter. Please keep reviewing! I just need something to help me keep going! There has been so much happening lately and I really hope that I haven't disappointed you guys with the delay on the next chapter... Enjoy, R&R!!:-)

Chapter 9

I love you; I'm just not in love with you

2 weeks after the accident... Hunter's POV – Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh, Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh, Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess, Oh Goddess...damnation! I am such an idiot, of course I love Morgan, we are muirn beatha dans, you don't just wake up one morning not love your muirn beatha dan!!! Do you? Argh! I can't take this anymore, something has surely hypnotised me...surely...I...just...can't...

I have to get this out of my head. I have a job to do. I do love Morgan, I do love Morgan, I do love Morgan, I...do...love... "Hello Hunter"

"Oh hi Kennet" I said, slightly relieved at the fact that the person on the other end was not in fact the woman I admire, my muirn beatha dan, whom I have just somehow lost...Shut up brain...

"Hunter, we have wonderful news. It seems that we have a lead on Amyranth in London." Yes, finally something to keep my mind off, other things...

"Wow, that was fast, I didn't expect any leads this soon."

"Yes, well neither did we. To find out more I recommend that you try and find these people, umm, just wait till I find my paper with their names on it..."

That was weird, Super-Organized Kennet actually, for once in his life, has been irresponsible, it just doesn't seem right, even if it is only a bit of paper.

"Here we go, aye, you should see Ms. Mia Jubilation and Mr Michael Carmichael. You could find them at that club in town. What is it called? Ice Cube or something? I don't know, its for the kids mainly, you'll fit right in"

"So what? They know about Amyranth or something?"

"They're recently excommunicated members. Remember, be nice to them Hunter, they were put under oath not to tell a living soul about the inner-workings of Amyranth. They're risking their life for the council so they have proved to be worthy sources."

"Ok, well, I better get start getting ready, its already night-time. Bye Kennet, thanks, you don't realise how much I need this right now."

"I think I do Hunter, but that doesn't matter, good luck!"

What did he mean by that? How could he possibly know? I mean, Kennet is smart, he is probably the best mentor anyone could have but he has NO IDEA about what is happening inside of me! Anyways, like he said, it doesn't matter; I have a job to do.

Maybe I should invite Morgan to come with me. No, what are you thinking Niall, you are trying to get her out of your head, you can't invite her on this trip to Ice...Goddess, I wish my brain would just stop talking...

Morgan's POV – I am so glad that my Hunter is out of hospital finally! I was so worried about him and he still hasn't told me much about what happened in there but oh well, Hunter is just a mysterious guy, he loves me and if it was a big deal he would of told me. He would have told me so...

I wonder what he is doing now? We haven't seen each other all week and I'm pining for Hunter, I've missed his never-ending love. Maybe we could even pick up from where we left off on the night before he went to Canada?:-) Oh, I am so blissfully happy. Sometimes I wonder, I wonder why he even sticks around with me, I mean, he wouldn't have to risk his life protecting me all the time, I'm sure if he had a normal girlfriend he'd be able to relax. And I'm only 18. I'm sure, Hunter would much rather an older girlfriend, and, and, I'm not even that...pretty. I started trembling with tears.

I'm just frumpy, dumpy, crumpy... I'm a stupid crumpet! That silly little English thingy you put in a toaster. (A.NSorry any crumpet fans, I like them too!!!:-) I'm ugly, why does he want me!? I sat there and just sobbed until I coaxed myself into believing that there was more to Hunter than just looks alone, he loves me, for...me. Oh Goddess, what is going on, am I going crazy!

That's it, I'm going to see him. I got out of my dorm room, it was a Saturday night and all the other students had gone out to see friends or had had a party somewhere to go to. Not my Hunter and I though. He's not that type of club guy, anyways, I'm kind of grateful too, I mean, I really can't dance. Either that or I just feel really weird and embarrassed shaking around my non-existent curves. Yes, I still look like I have the body of a 12 year old.

I took the underground to the stop that was nearest to Hunter's place and then got out and bought a drink from the vending machine near the entrance. "London is so beautiful, I'm so lucky to be staying here." I thought to myself, admiring my surroundings.

I arrived at Hunter's house and stood there in the front waiting for someone to answer the door. It was Mr Niall.

"Hey Mr Niall," I said, he looked surprised to see me.

"What have I told you about called me Daniel?" He asked jokingly

"Alright, Daniel, is Hunter around?"

"Funnily enough, I was going to ask you the same question, he went out tonight, with Skye, I think he said something about research for the council, anyways, he went to some club in town and we both know Hunter isn't the club type" He smiled at me then, "So I just thought he'd take you with him, seeing as you are his girlfriend and all. So anyways, haven't I let you in yet? He might not be here, but I sure would like some company to share some tea with, and I think that you'll be interested in a new book that I had just gotten today from an occult bookstore in town." He smiled at me and ushered me out of the cold of night into the warmth of his living room.

Why had he done this? I mean sure, take Skye, but I don't think going to a club'll hurt me! Nobody is out to get me anymore. Maybe he doesn't find me attractive anymore, or he just...doesn't...love me...
