the road between us [hosie]

part 12 [josies pov]

i woke up to see hope laying beside me asleep, i was confused for a moment, then i remembered everything, almost as if i forgot for a brief second. i looked at my stomach, healed. i must have drank vampire blood. i got up to see penelope laying in another section of the nurses office, i quickly looked away, the thought of her makes me sick.

i looked at the clock to see what time it was, "11:00 pm" i read. i assumed everyone was asleep, so i quickly got up and went to the bathroom.

i looked at myself in the mirror, for some reason i looked really pale, like more then i usually do. "come on now josie, you got stabbed, of course you do" i thought to myself. "wait, wouldn't the vampire blood heal that too?" i kept thinking. "i'm probably exaggerating" i told myself, "now go to bed".

i tried to sleep, but i just couldn't. i felt so sick. i went to the bathroom again, only to find out i was SO much more pale, i was basically a ghost. then all the sudden, i started puking in the sink, but this wasn't normal puke, it was... almost like the guts dana puked out, but not AS bad, (i obviously was NOT puking out my guts) this went on the whole night, i realized i was so pale that EVERYONE would notice, so at about 4:30, before anyone wakes up, i put on so much foundation that soon enough, i looked like my natural skin again. then at 5:00 am (wake up time) i got back in bed to act asleep.

at about 5:30, my dad walked in. i pretended to wake up to his noises, and for some reason he believed it.

"hey sweetie! how are you? are you feeling ok?" he asked, looking concerned but sincere. i rubbed my eyes like i would when i normally wake up, then fake yawned.

"good morning dad. i feel much better", i said, knowing i was lying. he smiled.

"that's good", he said while pulling something out of a brown paper bag. "i got you all some food", he said while taking out french fries.

"thanks dad", i said with a smile.

"have either of them waken up yet?" he asked.

"no, not that i have seen"

"oh ok", he said while passing me a sandwich.

"well, i'll leave you to eat, and then you can go back to sleep if you want", he said while walking out the door.

"love you dad"

"love you"
