"Duncan is that you?" I said opening my eyes scared to see who was helping me "what happened?" I sat up quickly, looking around.
"It's me, you're okay Mel, no one can hurt you now that I'm with you." He said holding me close to him so I wouldn't be as scared as I was before "I have something to tell you".
"You can tell me anything MacLeod" I said pulling away looking him in his eyes. "What is it?"
"I'm, I'm an." He started "I'm not who you think I am, I'm different from normal people, I lived a long life and.. I'm"
"I'm late for work, I'm sorry MacLeod but I really really have to go or I'm going to be fired and I need this job or I won't be able to keep my house." I got off the couch and left giving Duncan a huge hug and a long kiss goodbye.
"And I'm alone once more" Duncan said as he waved goodbye. "Why is it always me?" He asked himself as he put on a clean pair of pants and a clean shirt. He left my house and went to work.
Of course hours went by without MacLeod and I seeing each other. I missed him so much and I really wanted to go but I couldn't, I had to work. I had to design for about 2 hours then I had to go to work at the café where I worked part time for extra money so I could keep my house and not have to move.
I was so tired of all this work and I wanted to see Duncan MacLeod for so long that I just gave up and left the café leaving my friends behind not saying one word of where I was off to.
"Hello?" I asked quietly walking into Duncan's office "Is anyone here?" I looked around the place thinking "This is where Duncan lives?… or is there another floor to this place."
All that was there was a small gym where a man was standing looking at me asking me if I was looking for Mac but I was too busy staring off into space I didn't even hear him or notice he was there.
"Um excuse me Miss, are you looking for Mac.?" He asked, "I'm Richie Ryan. He's upstairs I'll get him for you just wait here." He said as he ran up the stairs calling Duncan's name.
