My lungs felt like they were on fire when I came to. And my dry throat didn’t help either. What I also wasn’t prepared for was my parents fighting. I was awake and willing after the shouting woke me. And might I say I was more than surprised by the words on my mom's side. But other than that I hadn't ever known dad gave up his parental rights. That was news to me.

Unfortunately my conscience took over again and when I awoke the next time I could actually move. Really only my chest hurt when I lifted myself up but the pain subsided seeing Faye at my side. She was asleep on the chair but had her torso up laying on the bed. Thankfully she had her head turned my way with a bit of drool coming down and if I had my phone I'd take a picture.

Wait, where is my phone? Crap, I left it in the damn burnt building. Glad i hadn’t brought my laptop or i’d be in big trouble. I'll need to get that replaced and maybe a doctor's note could get me out of a week of schoolwork. I could use another break even if the Christmas break was close.

“Faye,” I poked her cheek and slyly touched around her face wiping away the drool with the hospital blanket, “Love we need to work on your sleeping habits. Even your own alarm can’t wake you up so I might have to start kicking you out of bed.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxh8yUEdF1

I was gobsmacked when another voice was made known in the room forgetting who had come for only a second, “Well isn’t this a lovely picture.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJkVqiC3wv

My mind was rummaging with excuses but I've never been a good liar, “Hey mom uhm…,” I don't remember a single thing that happened after dad left. Should I be worried?, “Do you know who she is?”

I had a bit of panic in my voice but tried to settle myself down before responding, “I’m actually working under her so in a sense not really.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoda200osR

“It’s unethical Cleo,” I was ready to defend her but my mom held her hand up and my tongue failed me, “I am however happy as long as you are honey. I believe you know what your doing as you're practically a copy of me. All I ask is that I do get grandchildren someday.”

My mouth seemed to be the driest plainfield in the world at that, “Whoa ok totally not what i expected but i can agree to that later on in life once i tie her down.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfBUDUo7O3

I cringed not wanting to know anything about that part of her life, “Oh ew no no not like that gosh. Do you know when I can get out of here?”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTjHSoCd8G

“Actually yes I just talked to the doctor and I have your prescription as they foresaw you’d have a bit of chest pain. And now that your awake your gonna take your first dose and we’ll get you discharged. By the way, she sleeps like a log.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqnkJMHTho

“Tried to get her to come with me once she'd been here since the beginning but she wouldn’t budge. Quite the loyal one which i loved…,” She placed the bottle by my side and the look of uncertainty flashed across her face, “Can i hug you dear?”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49J5l4rhAT

“...Of Course mom,” She sighed, moving my hair out of the way and who knows how messed up I look and smell right now. That didn’t stop her from leaning in to kiss my cheek then tighten her arounds around me in a hug, “Your not in pain right?”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvE9FXzgXQJ

“Nope,” We stayed like this for a bit and a few tears tried to come to the surface confusing me but I didn't dare let them be known. After a bit she pulled away and she too wiped a few tears that came down but composed herself rather quickly.

“You know you could stay at my cabin,” I had whiplash looking over to Faye to see her. She looked uncomfortable at first but still came up to only kiss my cheek.480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv7q6CqAue

“Well look who's joined the land of the living. And I wouldn't dare impose anything on you… Actually, I might, since I need to give you the typical i’ll kill you if you hurt her talk. Only if you don’t mind Cleo.”480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZ7c90lDTP

“And spend a night on those terrible beds in the dorm? Definitely rather spend it with you. If this is settled, I could really use that shower promised to me.”
