Cheddar Cheese Soup Tater Tot
Day 14, 14:35
The headache has been sending throughout the morning. My empty stomach cries me food, but I'm afraid to take something that I feel bad. Dizziness come and go, it hurts both be lying or standing. I just want this to end soon.
is the first time I get to stay awake more than ten minutes. I have not yet clear what is happening to me, but an idea begins to form in my head. I do not want to accept that, it is too frightening. For now I must concentrate on not returning to faint. I know where I am, who is with me. I need to see him.
Making a huge effort, I open my eyes and sit up slightly. I do not recognize the room or bed on which I lie. No photos, books or anything person in the room. The walls are painted a beige color that combines with the dark wood of the furniture spotless. Everything seems ... from another era, the room might have once been an older person.
- Lydia? "Whispers someone holding my site inspection.
turn my head to the left, realizing that Taylor is crouching beside the bed. Is downgraded, there are dark circles under his eyes and ... just not him, it lacks that sparkle in his eyes.
I force a smile as I slowly lie down side, resting her head against the pillow. I pray not puking.
"Hello ... - the voice that comes from my throat I do not recognize as mine. Severe, harsh.
- How are you, my life? "he asked, lacing his fingers with mine above the mattress.
"I've been better .- I assure you, swallowing with the intention of regaining my voice .- What happened?
Taylor raises his hand and remove the hair from her face, taking time to respond. "I
infected ... Ethan and I are in the woods when you suffered the first transformation. It's normal not remember, you will slowly remembering everything. In a few days you will be better. Volume
air, digesting his words. I like them. Somehow I ended tucked into the same problem that Nora's brother's friends. How did we reach this point? Twenty days ago never could have imagined.
"Sorry .- apologizes.
- What? This is not your fault, Taylor ... - is absurd to believe it, take responsibility .- Come here.
- How? "Question without understand.
"Lie with me, please .- I am ashamed to ask this, but I really want to do so.
I feel terrible, I do not speak, words are meaningless. I just want to sleep again, to feel calm until the next transformation or fainting.
still reluctant, gets up and goes around the bed to lie beside me, putting great care not to move too much mattress. Wondering why he has not done this before when I was asleep, I turn around and put her head against him.
"If you vomit in, I promise to not purposely attempt .- joke.
Taylor laughs, making me feel the vibration of your torso against me.
"Do not worry about it .- I asked, giving me a kiss on the hair .- Sleep.
- And my parents? Nora
called to tell them that you would stay to sleep at home. Did not answer too many questions .- me with sadness and anger.
-guess this time I'm glad .- I hope my words will calm down. Maybe if he sees that I do not give importance he leaves get angry at the behavior of my parents.
"Someday I'll take away from them, where they can not never hurt .- decide before we remain silent, lost in our thoughts.
just hear our breath, a few steps in another room of the house. The wind made moan windows, it seems that the storm approaches. But I just fall asleep.
* * * Nora
Day 14, 15:11
hear voices in the bedroom, which means that Lydia has awakened and is talking to Taylor. I have wanted to go see her and to make sure everything is okay, but this time their share them. The next time will be mine. Or I hope so.
"This sentence is boring .- Dylan, collapsing one of the stools from the kitchen to face me. Once again the counter is again our separation barrier.
"I know .- I agree, splitting in two a piece of biscuit and llevándomelo the mouth .- I love this thing. Dylan
food notes with a smile before looking up into my eyes.
-are all yours. Going to force me to go shopping.
"Do not go bad, you have an empty fridge. Do you really live here?
-some years, yes. The floor was of my grandfather left me inheritance. I spent long periods of my life with him .- I said, caught off guard.
I guess now I'll have to get used to face a communicative and open Dylan, who is not afraid to show his past. Of course that is afraid to meet me, the Winchester family has been full of misfortune ever since.
"You have to tell it if you want .- I interrupt.
He turns his head into the room, making sure that Ethan and Adriana are too busy with their caresses to pay attention before you sit back at me and his hand gently on mine.
"When my father was my mother was not care of me. At first I was disoriented, did not understand, so go ahead with it. I do not care much if it were to me not to tell .- begins quietly .- But my father got tired of me and sent me with my grandfather. I spent a year with him, but I got used to it and insisted on returning with my father. Still I hoped that my mother would return.
His eyes are filled with a glow of pain that makes me wrap your hand in mine, when I was the one that gives courage to continue. I do not know what to feel when a mother leaves you. There is no excuse to do something like that.
"For many years I believed that I was to blame for everything .- recognizes laughing even though he has escaped a tear .- When I was eight my father started drinking heavily. Existing one, but after then I saw him not sober. I started to take care of him. We had lunch and dinner, forcing him to go to work ... It did not work.
- What happened? "I dare to ask to see it shut.
"I began to spend more time with my grandfather. Just going home to see him fired and lived off the legacy of my grandmother and my grandfather's pension. Until he died, I left the apartment and the savings that could keep the situation .- concluded, trying to appear calm .- Since then, this is my life. I care for my drunken father and I come here alone all night. Exciting.
Knowing that we can be discovered at any time, grabbed his hand and I stand beside him and dragged him around the counter to the kitchen area that can not be seen from the lounge, where it is still my brother. I have limited time, so without hesitation he raised his hand and wiped his cheek, obliterating the trail of this unique and painful tear.
"You're a fucking idiot and you've wanted to be here just because you have wonderful friends that they had killed each other for helping you scolded him harshly .- .- And if you had not been so stupid ... I also I had done.
I do not understand why so hard for me to be normal. I swear I want to be, I would die for having been ... but it is an impossibility.
"Never too late to start to be .- .- Come encourage you to do" something "together you told me about yesterday .- I suggest.
- Now?
your brother ... "I do not .- I cut, release to go for my coat .- Ethan I'm going home, Dylan is going to accompany me. I have afraid to go alone. Is there any problem with that? - I ask, taking a larger package of cookies for the road.
- Really?
"Yes, I have stayed at five. I want to eat something else that cookies and do some homework. See you for dinner?
joins Ethan to say goodbye, giving him a grateful smile to Dylan. Soon begin to suspect our behavior, but for now we will take advantage.
"Of course. Have fun with whom you have been .- I said, holding back her curiosity.
"Thanks .- I kiss on the cheek, and I say Adriana with a smile before leaving the apartment without haste, hiding the desire I have to go out and be alone with Dylan.
.- "See you after the boy is fired, followed and quickly closing the door behind us.
I spent a nervous smile before taking my hand start down the stairs. I want to forget everything he remembered, how is your life if only for a few hours.
"I hope we do not see any known .- acknowledge, pointing out our hands folded when we reached the portal.
"I have an idea .- whispered, stopping before you reach the door .- What if we escape?
- Escape? Where? And how? "He asked.
Dylan extends his smile before pulling me into a corner of the site and force me to go under the stairs leading to the upper floors. He wants to take him somewhere and no one sees us. Of course he likes impossible challenges.
"Trust me .- calls me, opening a side door that let in a damp and empty alley.
"I've gone mad. Taking
my comment with good humor, laughs and encourages me to continue walking, running through the streets, by digging a narrow streets I've ever seen. Getting lost in Evansville, running and avoiding people from the hand of Dylan's much more fun than you ever could have imagined. Although I have to clarify that we may never have thought that I would end up doing this.
- For here, "he tells me, disappearing behind a corner and dropping a second to separate ourselves by a man laden with boxes of fruit.
Try to avoid, but I took a few seconds to surround him, so looking at the new street where I expected the guy.
- Nora! Well, what are you doing here? - Dana stopped me, standing next to me with a smile that makes me sick.
My mind returns everything that Lydia told me. I have not decided what to do with it and I do not want to waste my time ... So I smile back with some reluctance.
-Flee. Bye .- loose him, leaving her speechless before running off to the right.
I do not even care if she sees me or acknowledge my partner, but took the Dylan's hand and shot him.
- Who was that? "He asks when we stop to catch his breath.
-Dana. The brunette who is always with Victoria.
- Is mad that we are not left in peace? "Released prior to reconsider and apologize .- Sorry, I have to start measuring my words.
"No, that's fine. You're right. Annoy you is an idiot .- I support him, leaning against the alley wall.
- Is not is supposed to be your friend?
nod, taking a deep breath before you begin to explain. I do not want to publish my new knowledge, I prefer that one, especially Dana, know that Lydia has told me everything. Hide for a few days, making the situation is as usual and then act, that's my plan for this issue.
"Apparently he hates me or that's what I said Lydia. Is saying horrible things about me, supports me and only me because I could "drive" to you.
- Really? - Raises a brow in puzzlement before his lips curling into a smile stunned .- It is most stupid it seems.
"Well, you could have made a club" Anti-Nora. "
"That girl hates you in all aspects. I hated you because the only way in which you presented to me were like "possible friend and sister of my best friend. " That's why I disliked, because the idea of \u200b\u200byou by my side as a friend and not being able to touch is ... hell.
"Then that night ... before you had already noticed me. Not everything caused the damn challenge .- I gather, grateful that we have begun to touch this issue. I need to clarify the situation.
Dylan shrugs. This time is not ashamed of having to come clean.
- Do you remember the summer you passed abroad? It was the longest time I've been out to see you.
"Yes, it was my fourteenth birthday .- I recall. "When you returned
stayed with your brother. I was with Ethan by Evansville and he decided that I stayed to dine with you, was the time when your parents would "accept" a little wryly adds .- .- I saw in the classroom. I was reading one of your books and not recognize you.
- Why? - Do not remember having lived through that time. That is, I know that Dylan had dinner with us to return, but there was nothing special about that night. Do not even remember what book I read ...
"He had hair down, it was not until then that you get rid forever of the bows and pigtails .- to pronounce that last word expands her smile, contagiándomela me. Hence comes my nickname .- Had changed, grown. Were no longer the girl who left trip in June. It was September and were sitting there as always, focused, and I knew they were coming hard years if he was going to have to stay away from you in regards to Ethan. Lifted his head and looked at me. Frown and drop something to bother me. Then I decided it best to continue with our "war children". It was not easy. I have come to fool myself to the point that really convinced me that I liked at all. Under the gaze
feeling the blush on my cheeks. "Almost three years and I've noticed a few days ago? Trying to keep busy while organize my thoughts, I pick up the package of cookies that I have taken from his home and open it, carrying a piece in his mouth.
"You got that hate you. You know, right?
"Yes .- acknowledges, laughing and standing by my side, staring at the same time supporting a shoulder against the brick wall .- But as I got that, I intend to achieve just the opposite.
"You're going to cost.
"I like challenges.
raise my head at that statement. Bonita chance to think the same thing. Getting to know.
"We'll see how you get this ... - I like not letting him see that in fact already been achieved. I feel safe, I control the situation even lie.
- Whether you like cookies? You could buy your love them .- based jokes.
"It would be a good method. Are delicious, try them out .- I encourage you, giving you.
Dylan looks for a second before turning his attention to me.
- Cinnamon? "Suggests.
Lemon-Son .- clarify.
"Let's try changing the fruit ... - released without having any sense to me.
- What ...?
I stopped leaning on me, pushing my hand in the cookie away and placing his hand on my neck. His kiss catches me off guard, it makes no sense to kiss me. He is afraid, and although it is willing to try to stop hating. But I do not think too much when answering.
cookie package falls to the ground and my hand is placed on the arm has raised to touch my neck. I move closer to him, lost to the new type of kiss is giving me. No anger, no passion, just being sensitive, taking his time, as if he really intends to prove the taste of the food directly from my lips.
I feel absurd for a moment to realize that suck the lemon, but I relax when I realized that he has decided do this to me eating. It is your decision.
I start to burn your lips when you break apart a little, keeping your hand in place and nailing a few seconds staring at my lips, while passing his tongue over before looking up to my astonished eyes encountering .
"Not bad .- .- hoarsely decide But I prefer Raspberry ...
- Raspberry? What do you have with them? That night you try to fool the juice .- remember, frowning.
"Someday you'll find out and I feel humbled .- laughs, letting go and stepping back.
a moment I contemplate without a word. I can leave for later the enigma of the fruit, but there is something I do not want delay. I can not.
- What has been this change of attitude? In the forest
said ... "I said many things and all are true. But I reflected .- .- decisively interrupted me and I realized that the idea of \u200b\u200blosing, of not being able to take care and protect, not to happen you can avoid things like that happened, it is much worse than the idea of \u200b\u200bfacing Ethan and the world. Fear is not enough to turn back. You told me that if I changed my opinion, you seek. Let me know if it's too late or, like you said, even I have a chance. I have throat
dry, a knot made to me in the stomach. Supposedly now have to jump for joy, too late to say no, kissing again and be the happiest couple in the universe. But unfortunately, things are not so easy. Because now that her fear has dissipated, the mine has decided to appear.
Because ... what if we do not work? We may feel attracted to each other and jump the spark every time we touch, but for a relationship to work there must be more. If the days pass and each time the passion is declining, "we will discuss as usual? Do we embitter each other? Ethan Will we hurt for nothing?
- What if I tell you now I'm having doubts and fear? - I ask in a whisper.
- What are you questions? "Is interested while showing some pain by what I said.
"That this is nothing but a heater that will disappear .- acknowledge, his back and began to walk down the alley to think better .- Now are you sure you want this. But you can change your mind at any time and do not know if I could return to face the stupid Dylan.
- Who says to me that you do not happen to you? "She replied, coming over and forcing me to stop my walk .- This is what happens in relationships. Or risk and you rush to the pool or you do and you're left with the desire to know what could have happened. If it's any encouragement, I will never again allow me to hurt you verbally. Because I myself do but what we fail.
At some point in history we have swapped roles. I mean that's right, because it does, but I can not. Why can not things be simpler? Why I have not been noticing a guy less of a problem?
"Let one thing .- decides to see that I'm unable to speak .- Give me a time these days, until you have to return to school to show you what you can live with me. Then decide if you want to return to the above or not. But let this trial period, please.
I look into your eyes, hoping to find his dark iris something that encourages me to say yes. Because a "no" is not a solution to business. I will continue thinking of him, watching him when I see him, wondering what could have happened ... And I can not stay with curiosity. I need this and need it now.
"Okay .- I give.
His face is illuminated by the most sincere smile I've seen so far outlined. Raises a hand, ofreciéndomela.
"Now, can we continue with the quote that I prepared?" Is concerned.
- Your Evansville event is run with a cold as hell "" I care, smiling while I accept his hand. "Do not run
nonsense. I want to take a place safe from prying eyes without leaving the country. So you should know what our destiny .- starts walking slowly down the alley.
Moves relaxed, no tension in your muscles or reflected in their movements. Sure what you are doing, so I opted to give up and let him take the reins of the case. It is time to stop worrying about everything.
This is a two.
- you take me to the movies?
Cinema is the only corner of Evansville where there is a vow of silence. People do not talk about who is going, what couples are formed or broken. The gossip is not incumbent upon this site, there is a kind of unwritten pact of silence around him. I never thought it would be to take advantage.
"I've caught .- acknowledged. Dylan
strives to maintain a conversation while making the journey. It is strange to see him as friendly and social, smiling and telling jokes. I do not think even once they have behaved well with friends. Do not get me wrong, I love this new way of being. It makes me feel good. But ... I will take time to acclimatise to it.
- What are you doing in June? "I am interested suddenly when we occupy our seats in the cinema hall.
Dylan looks up at me, forgetting his drink.
- Why do you ask? "You just
school. You have to choose a career, a university ... - a city. That's what I mean.
"Before this I was watching. I thought my father moved to the capital and thus to study there. But now things have changed.
"Do not make decisions thinking of me, please. Do what you like.
.- Nora called me, trying to hide a smile .- I know what you think, this will not last. But I will not be able to go to another city if it means leave you, your brother and all my friends. I want to change and for that I give up the "plans" to my old self.
-Evansville
not help you.
"No, but you shall be.
is so sure of it, is so very positive that I dare not contradict him. Has placed in me all hope of change and lead a normal life and I do not know if I can keep up.
-Dylan ...
-No. Stop worrying and believe that everything will go wrong. Yes, will go wrong if you decide to continue and Ethan finds out, because it gives me a good beating. But ... then no. Okay? Trust me.
"Sorry. I do not know what is happening.
-spend so much time with me is affecting you.
laughing at his joke, I settle into my seat. Yes, it may be true. But I want to continue spending much more time with him. Without worrying doubts, fears and failures. Scott
