Chapter12.:A bitter loose/Confession

„Zoey?...Zoey wake up!" Slowly openning her eyes, the world around Zoey took sharp contures. Remembering what happened Zoey stood up. „What happened Zoey?" She took two uncertain steps and fell to the ground. Elliot runned over to her, picking her up in his arms. „Do you hear me Zoey? What about an answer.." Zoey openned her eyes looking on Elliot, trying to stay conscious.

„Im ok...just tired."Her voice was weak, bitter and sound hurt. His eyes focused on the bleeding wounds all over her body.

„Yeah and I´m ... never mind. You´re injured lets go home, I´ll carry you." Elliot lifted Zoey in his arms and made his way straight to home. Zoey fell asleep in his arms somewhere in the middle of the way. Elliot tried to balance her body, so she didn´t wake up. He examined her face the whole time, seeing if something hurt her. When they arriwed Elliot kicked the front door open and set Zoey on the couch. He turned to leave when Zoey got up.

„Where are you going Elliot?" Elliot already layed a hand on the door and turned her way.

„I´m going to buy some medicaments, bandage and such stuff. Just wait and don´t move or you´ll hurt yourself even further. Bye."

„Bye Elliot." / Thank you Elliot...it´s nice to know you´re there for me when I need you. / Zoey lied down on the couch and started to inspect her wounds. She slid her fingers down her stomach and nearly winced in pain about her cut. Her body was covered in wounds and cuts from Pais Areal Torpedo attacks. /This will need a lot of time to recover along with desinfection. It´s all my fault. I should run away when I had the chance to. / Zoey was interupted in her thoughts when the front door openned. Elliot set a bag on the table and started diging in it.

„What happened Zoey?"Elliot took out some sort of wet handkerchief and started cleaning her wounds.

„I had a fun day and on my way home Pai appered in front of me and wanted revenge..."

„Revenge for what?" Her wounds were clean by now and the time for desinfection came.

„For killing all those predacites and Dren...back then when he kidnapped me. God that hurts Elliot." He stopped spraying desinfection on her belly.

„Sorry it´s just a little bit too deep."

„Pai wanted to fight and when I wanted to attack, my Strawberry Sceptre failed me." Elliot ended up bandaging the cut on her stomach.

„What? Your Strawberry Sceptre didn´t work?"

„Something went wrong in the process and I was falling twenty meters to the ground and all the bubbles cracked. And since then it was one Areal Torpedo attack after another.And I felt helpless and vulnerable."Elliot stood up and packed everything again in the bag. Then he looked on Zoey and their eyes met.

„It must have been bad."

„It made me realise that I alone am weak and vulnerable, but when we combinate our powers we can match them."

Zoey broke eye contact with Elliot, finding it to be enought for one day.

„You must be tired, let me carry you up." Elliot lifted Zoey in his arms and headed upstairs. He openned the door and set Zoey on the bed. „I´m going to make you something for dinner I´ll be back in half an hour." Elliot leaved the room and Zoey decidet to take shover. Her clothes were all ragged. She went to her wardrobe, took out her night shirt and headed to the bathroom. After a quick shower she dried herself, got dressed and came just in time back.

Elliot came in her room and set the tray on her night table. „Here you go..."

„Thank you Elliot...!"He turned and headed out of her room.

„It´s alright Zoey, just promise me you´ll be more carefull next time." Elliot locked eyes with Zoey and his voice softened, heading a track of concern in it. „ I can´t afford to loose you." Zoey stood up from her bed heading to Elliot.

„I want you to know that I´m gratefull for all the things you went for me throught Elliot and when you ever need something, just say it."

„The only thing I need Zoey...is you. I tried to go on with my life without you, but I couldn´t manage to forget about you. I love you. Please...think about it..." Elliot went out of Zoeys room and closed the door after him.

Sad huh...? Review...

I swear the next chapter is really going to be heartbreaking...but maybe it will not. Maybe Elliot will get the only thing he need...the nexts chapters name is... „Kiss the rain"
