Chapter 3
It been a week since she left me, but it feels like its been forever. Jeb would bring me food and water 3 times a day, and Jamie would come everyday, but I didn't care.
Jamie missed Wanda too. Sometimes he would come and just sit next to me for hours, not saying anything. I think he is the only one who knows how I felt. When he did talk he told me about the news that was stirring the dry atmosphere. Melanie woke up and everyone was excited to get to know the girl that was with them so long. I am kind of glad that I haven't seen her. I know how much seeing her would make my body believe she was still here.
The things I loved about Wanda were the way she acted and moved. She loved every being a certain way, though she was probably more scared of them. She looked at things with curiosity and innocence. She had the knowledge of a 20 year old and the purity of a newborn. That is why I fell in love with her, not Melanie.
I looked at the little silver soul I held in my hand. That was what I was in love with. That is what I'll never be able to hold again.
Two weeks went by. How I could tell was the amount of dishes that piled up. It took me a few days but I noticed that Jamie hasn't been back to visit me. I didn't want to talk but I had to make sure he was okay. Wanda would have wanted that.
When Jeb came back for my dinner, I spoke for the first time in what seemed like a month.
"Where is Jamie?" I asked Jeb. He looked shocked, but after a minuate his face smoothed.
"He's out on a raid." He said heading for the door. Their first raid without Wanda. They must be upset to go back to their old methods. Before I could ask anything else, Jeb already left.
I rubbed my full belly and placed Wanda's cryotank next to my chest as I lyed down for the night.
"Goodnight Wanda."
That night I dreamed that we were together again. I was sleeping on my bed when she appeared in the doorway.
"Wanda?" I asked. Then she took off down the hall. I followed with only the wisp of her hair to follow as she passes the corners. She was making me chase her. I came across no one as I ran. Finally I arrived at the river room. She stood next to the doorway to the bath in a long white flowing dress. She was so beautiful. She wagged her finger at me then went into the bath area. I followed.
When I entered the room was pitch black except for a long strip of moonlight coming from the crack in the ceiling. She was lying in the shallow part of the water in her white dress. I took off my shirt and went in after her.
"Ian" said the voice of a angel. "Do you miss me?"
I stood there staring at this amazing soul. I swam closer to her. I stretched out my hand and placed it on her wet cheek.
"I miss you more then anything in this world." I looked at her face which was dark with the shadows. I pulled her into the light to see her eyes reflect. When I realized that her dress was translucent in the water, I shyly looked away.
"Don't be afraid. I'm already yours." She grabbed my hand and placed it the scar on her neck. "My soul belongs to you."
I pulled her into a kiss. In that one kiss, I wanted to let her know what I felt. I drew back to look at her, but she was gone.
"Ian?" Her voice called "Ian?" Wait that isn't Wanda's voice.
"Wake up already" I was Melanie's.
I opened my eyes too look at the body I once loved. I wanted so bad to reach out and kiss her but I knew she wasn't the one I wanted to kiss.
"Ian, you have to come with me." She said
"What. Why" I stammered out.
"It time to see her again" she said with a smile.
"Who?"
"Wanda"
