So this chapter is based around episode 10, with the cliff scene. I finally got to it. Hope that you like it. Even if you don't, review and tell me. To those who have been reviewing, thanking you greatly.
Chapter 6
The convoy pulled up outside the Kafe.
"Thanks Dr Whitewood." Jana spoke up "For everything."
"You don't need to thank me," she smiled "I should be thanking you, you gave me an opportunity to run some tests and experience what it was like to see wild Wolfblood's on a full moon."
"Yes but you nearly got hurt." Jana pointed out
"Doesn't matter, I'm safe now and you father's getting better."
"Well, without you, he would have died." Jana insisted "We wouldn't have known it was hemlock."
"Jana, are you coming," Katrina called "It's late and I'm really tired."
"Coming Katrina!" she shouted in response "I better go but I'm still really sorry about what Madoc did to you and I hope you can still trust us."
"Of course I still trust you," she could see Katrina looking annoyed "now you better go, before Katrina starts shouting. I'll be fine."
"Night." Jana said as she got out of the car
She smiled in response.
Once she was sure everyone was back inside, she let her head fall into her hands. The last few days had taken their toll on her. It had been an intense experience. She had seen what it was like for wild Wolfblood's and she had nearly been killed by one as well. She had never been more scared in her entire life than at that moment. She could have died and she never would have got to say goodbye to so many people, her parents, her brother, her friends.
She then remembered that, Tim had wanted to see her for a coffee, after she got back. She laughed to herself. She could really do with a coffee right now.
…
The knocking on his door startled him, from his writing. Tim had another promotion and reading of the book tomorrow and he needed a speech. He had been doing trying to summon the right words for hours but had got nowhere. He glanced at his watch as he got up. 11:30. Who would be calling at this time? He sneaked a quick look through the window in the top of the door before opening.
"Rebecca?" he looked confused, as he pulled the door open "Have you any idea what time it is?"
"Honestly, no." her voice was flat "I'm sorry, I should go. You need your sleep."
She started to walk away.
"Oh no," he said, taking her by the arm and guiding her back "if you're showing up on my door step, with half an hour to midnight, and no idea of the time, then there is something wrong."
"You could say that."
…
"What!?" he exclaimed
The pair were now sitting in Tim's living room, holding cups of tea, as Rebecca had started to recount what had happened on the trip.
"I told you to stay safe!" he shouted
"I know, I know," she stopped him going on
He sighed as he sat down next to her. She set her head on his shoulder.
"I just don't want you to get hurt." He softened his voice "Now, what happened? Full story please."
"I went out into the woods to try and find Emilia and I found her talking to Madoc. He was collecting plants to heal Jana's father. Comfrey and mandrake he said. It was hemlock."
"But hemlock's p-"
"Poisonous," she supplied "exactly. Madoc was killing him. Anyway, after I identified it as hemlock, he decided that we were a threat to his plan and he backed me and Emilia up, until we fell off the cliff."
"If you didn't trust Madoc, then why did you think talking to him, in a wood where you might not be able to escape?"
"I thought that I could gain his trust."
"He hadn't exactly warmed to you in the first place," he pointed out "why did you think a chat would help?"
"I came here for a bit of sympathy not to be reprimanded," she put her cup back on the table and stood up
"No, Becca I didn't mean to reprimand you." he tried to take back what he had said "You can't go out now, it's nearly 1 o' clock and its-"
"Raining." She finished for him, as she stood in the open doorway looking out "Heavily."
"I think we need some more tea." He said, shutting the door
"Alcohol would be better." She commented "Have you got any whiskey?"
"You know I hate whiskey." He walked back to the kitchen "I'll make you some tea, with scotch in it."
She trekked back to the living room and sat down. She pulled her knees up to her chest. Before too long Tim had returned with 2 more mugs of tea.
"Scotch?" she asked
"Scotch." He confirmed with a smile, as he sat down next to her
"Thanks."
"Please can you just try not to fall of any cliffs, next time you go on a field trip for Segolia." He tried to lighten the mood
"I promise." She leaned against him, as he put his arm around her shoulders
There was a moment of silence.
"I could have died." She said as she sipped the tea
"Don't you dare." He tightened his grip around her soldiers "If you go dying before me I'll not be very happy."
"Who will you be protesting to, exactly?" she joked
"Segolia. I'll sue them for causing your death."
She looked up at him
"Well, you've thought it out, I'll give you that." She yawned
"Tired?" he responded
"Have you ever driven from rural Wales to Newcastle, with a 3 shape changing wolves and a hysterical Katrina?" she asked, knowing his answer
"Well, now you mention it, no but I can see how that could take its toll."
"Anyway, I should be getting home and let you to sleep." She yawned again
"I wasn't sleeping when you got here and I won't sleep knowing you're driving in that rain to the other side of town." He told her "Also you're yawning and are evidently too tired to drive. I won't have you causing an accident."
She had already curled up on the sofa, so he decided to get her a blanket, so she could sleep there. As he returned he found her already asleep. He put the blanket over her before placing a light kiss to her forehead.
"Sleep well."
Thanks for reading and please review with ideas.
