Adrian (Wrong)

Sydney had gotten up to go to the bathroom, so I was left sitting in first class waiting for her to come back. She had been in there for a while now and I was starting to worry. I don't usually worry I know, but Abe had trusted me to keep her safe and I wasn't about to fail at that.

"Do you want something to drink Sir?" I looked over to see a flight attend. What kind of question was that, of course I wanted a drink but I couldn't have one I shouldn't have one.

I took a deep breath and shook my head, not trusting my words. "Would you like some water?" I nodded, that seemed safe. She pored two cups with water, she handed me one. The other cup she placed on Sydney table.

"Thank you," I said, still worried about Sydney. It had been fifteen minutes already. The flight attend left and I leaned back in the seat and closed my eyes. I tried not to do this often, because of fear of thoughts of Rose, but this didn't happen.

"Adrian?" there was a soft hand on my shoulder, it was warm and gave me a calming feeling. All the worry I felt had left. I opened my eyes and looked over. Sydney. "Adrian, something is wrong, very wrong." She said, her voice uneven.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" My voice rose higher and higher with every word. I wasn't worried, I was afraid.

"I'm not hurt. I don't have any scars, I don't have a single mark on me. Adrian, I'm..." She couldn't finish, she shook her head as though she didn't believe it.

"That can't be I wasn't sober, you were still breathing. I couldn't have brought you..."

"You must have," her face showed she was completely scared, I couldn't do anything.

I took her hands and looked her in the eyes, "Sydney it will be okay, we'll get through this."

"Adrian! Compulsion really?" She hissed. I thought back to Rose. She said that through the bond she could feel Lisa using compulsion or healing. I looked at Sydney and she blinked repeatedly.

"On the bright side your alive," I said using my usual tone which made her glare and smile at the same time.

"Adrian, I mean it what are we going to do? Do we tell Abe? Rose knows, that's how I found out. Abe's going to ask me why I called Rose, and I can't lie to Abe. No one can lie to him." Her voice was high.

"We'll have to tell Abe at some point he'll figure it out. If you figured it out, he's going to figure it out. Sydney I really don't know how this is going to work. After we tell Abe maybe he'll let you talk to Rose more. She'll know what to do and how it works." I said and that seemed to calm her a little.

"Please take your seats we will be landing soon." The flight attend announced.
