A/N: I'm so sorry for having taken so long to update but school started again after the Easter break and as you'd probably guess, things have been rather busy. Thank you to all those who reviewed :)
Faye's mind was spinning but she was still conscious; conscious enough to register that she was being lifted. She snuggled her head closer to the warm chest before asking
'Did you find Melissa?'
'She's with Diana'
She felt too tired to reply; instead she decided to allow her eyes to close.
'How is she?' asked Cassie while walking next to Jake carrying Faye.
'She got a nasty blow to the back of her head; she probably has a concussion' he replied through gritted teeth.
'Shouldn't we be taking her to a hospital?'
'Magic will let her heal faster'
Latin words echoed through the abandoned house as the Circle recited the hardly readable words in the book of shadows.
'She should be fine' said Diana, trying to comfort Melissa who didn't seem to be taking it well that Faye was hurt.
'She told me not to go, why didn't I listen?'
'Shh, she'll be alright. Let's get you home, okay?', tried Diana.
'What about Faye?'
'Jake said he'll stay here and keep an eye on her'
Jake covered Faye's sleeping form with a blanket. Yet his extended arm remained above her. Slowly he reached down and with his thumb; he delicately caressed her bruised cheek. His body seemed to tense every time he saw her ruptured blood vessels, but there wasn't much he could do about it now. Making sure she looked comfortable, he shut the door behind him. He needed to finish the herbal remedy that Diana left him instructions for.
Her head felt like it was clutched in a deathly grip attempting to leave some sort of dent in her skull. Did she get drunk last night? She couldn't recall doing so. Her eye lids felt as if some weights were sawn on to their surface as she opened them. Bright light. Faye squirmed as the pain intensified. No, pardon her. The pain was closer to somebody whacking her with a baseball bat. Blinking she tried to erase the light fog that settled over her vision and get a closer look at her surroundings. Her still faulty eyes fell on a dark, worn out piece of furniture. Wait, what was the chair doing here? The last time she saw it, it was in the Abandoned House, unless that's where she was. Confusion came in pair with annoyance; at least when it came to her. Irritated she sat up determined to find some answers. Yet the moment she shifted her weight, she felt nauseous. Oh, was she going to be sick. Almost falling off the couch in an attempt to get off, she run in the direction of the bathroom. It wasn't easy; her mind was spinning like a carousel and her feet kept getting caught in things. Hazy, she held on to the wall as she kneeled down by the toilet. The spasms in her stomach made her expel all of its contents, as tears streamed down her cheeks. As she stayed holding on to the toilet partly in case she was going to vomit again and somewhat in support, a wet material came into contact with her shiny from sweat forehead. Jake kneeled in front of her, and with the material in hand, went on to trace the path her tears have previously taken.
'Go away, Jake' her voice sounded too weak for her liking.
'Not even a thank you for yesterday, typical', Jake said
Yesterday? Suddenly all came rushing back; missing Melissa, climbing bins and Callum. That sudden overflow of information made her head hurt more, if that was even possible.
'Come on, get up' he said and began lifting her up.
With his arm around her; supporting most of her weight, they got to the sink.
Within seconds, Faye rinsed her mouth and just like before Jake helped her walk.
A/N: I'll be updating soon. By the way, there is this idea to make The Secret Circle trend on twitter, it's a big task but we can do it – use the hash tag #WeWantTheSecretCircleSeason2
