Hi, everybody! Sorry it's been awhile, but between being grounded and school I've had a lot to do. I've also been working on my other story called Without You, (here's the summary, if you have time check it out, I'm not sure if I should continue.) Evy's pulled into an AU, one without Rick or her kids, and the only way to get back home is to apologize to Rick for the argument they had before she was put here. Only problem, she doesn't know where he is or if he'd be willing to take in all the info she has. Will Evy ever get home?
Now I wasn't going to have the chapter up tonight because the mummy returns is on at this moment and I'm missing it, but I've seen it over 4,000 times, no lie, and I got people saying they want more. Well here it is, chapter 10. Thanks for all your reviews I love hearing from you guys.
P.S. this will be a short chapter because I'm a real klutz, which is one of the reasons my nickname is Evy, but any ways, earlier I stabbed my hand with a knife while trying to help a friend open an early Christmas present and I got myself with full blown anger, the thing wasn't opening and I was getting mad. I'm ok though, it wasn't as bad as it sounds, I just now know how Evy felt when she was stabbed, only she felt 20 times worse. But the point is this will be short because it hurts when I type so sorry, but I'll have chapter 11 up once I start to feel better.
Much thanks to Ashley Carnahan, Evelyn Carnahan-O'Connell, ReDblooDpassioN, I really love hearing from you guy's thanks.
I woke up in Jonathan's clothes and my bandages tied firmly around my chest, I figured Rick must have dressed me after I passed out, which was odd because I've never passed out before or been that sick, ever!
I rolled over to my side to look for Rick, but saw he wasn't there. I was going to go back to sleep, but my stomach was getting the feeling it did the night before and I could feel something coming up. I put my hat on and rushed out of the tent and into the desert, not too far from camp though. I fell to the ground and emptied my stomach.
It was amazing I had anything left from the night before. From behind me I could hear Rick speaking to the other guys, "he's sick." Rick explained. "Too much sun." the men all around him began to laugh and as I glanced back I saw them return to their morning routine of packing up camp.
Once I was done with my task at hand, I covered up my sick and walked back to camp, all the time feeling dizzy and as if I was going to faint again. As I got closer to camp I saw George talking to Rick and as I approached them both George looked to me and said, "Hey Jake, how are you feeling?"
I walked up to George, Rick now right behind me. I was going to yell at him, though I had no reason to at all, but instead everything went black and I landed right in Rick's waiting arms.
I woke up about an hour later to water being splashed on face. As I opened my eyes I could see only Rick and George, we were by the oasis Rick and I had bathed in only the night before.
"Good, she'd up." George said. I looked down to see that my shirt was on, but the bandages weren't, my hair was down and Rick kissed my forehead.
"Evy, are you ok?" Rick asked me worriedly, I only lowered my head into my hands and began to cry.
"Don't worry, Mrs. O'Connell." George said "I'm the only one who knows and I won't tell a soul. I promise."
I raised my head from my hands and spoke. "Thanks, I'm so sorry." I began to cry more, only this time on Rick's shoulder.
"Don't be" George continued, "I understand, really I do. My wife wanted to come along as well." He said and turned to Rick to let him know he was done.
"Because you're sick though," Rick began, "you're going home, some guys from the legion aide are coming to take you to the hospital in Cairo when you get there the nurses will find out you're a woman and take care of you, then I want you to call Jonathan so he knows your there."
I nodded and hugged Rick, saying in his ear, "But I don't want to leave you, I want to stay here. I love you." Again the tears started up.
"I love you, too, and that's why you're leaving." He said holding me close. "If anything were to happen to you I'd never forgive myself." He finished kissing my lips.
"By the time you get home, you'll just have to wait two days, then he'll be home with you." George said then he patted my shoulder as he walked away and towards camp.
"Write me when you get home, telling me how you feel." Rick said helping me change. "I'll get the letter the day before I leave." I nodded and kissed for the last time for the next three days.
"Was he mad?" I asked waiting for the legion aide.
"A little, but because he understands he said he'll let us live." He said with a smile; that was the last thing I held of him as I slowly began to drift off. Blacking out on my husband and I had the best thing to remember him by for the next three days, his smile.
well? how was it? please review and let me know. thanks for all of your reviews in the past. love them. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
