I had stayed at the house that night in hopes that Valentine would change her mind and come back. I knew it was wishful thinking but it was worth it to me. I had a restless night then brakiest that morning alone in the kitchen. I only prayed that she was safe. Orion had not returned yet which was so unlike him. I call Malachi into the room so that I have someone there to talk to and my day isn't lonely.
"Have you heard from him yet" I ask taking a sip of my coffee
"No sir, do you want me to go looking for him"
"No, I don't need both of you to go missing, I am going to bathe and then head home see to it that Orion knows where I will be"
"Yes sir"
I give the smaller guy a smile, Malachi was short for his age but strong and had a good head on his shoulders. He had only been sixteen when i meet him back in 1980. He was out on the street and was running from a guy by the name of Nichlos. At that time Malachi was human, he ran straight into me.
"Where you going boy" I had asked him
"No were's sir"
"You are in the middle of New York and you don't know where you headed"
"No sir,"
"Come on" I tell him grabbing him up I shove him into the back of the building Orion and I had been staying in until Nichlos was out sight. "Get yourself off the street son" I told him after
"Yes sir"
I watched as he hurried away only for minutes later to get shot in the back. Orion ran out and pulled him back to safety the kid was dying and I had a chose turn him into one of us or let him die. I made the choice. And never regarded it and nether has he. He had told me once that he felt he owed me everything for saving his life. but I feel I put him and Orion in more danger when they are with me. Even though they have told me that they would die for me and never leave my side. I trust them both with my life and Valentins.
Now I sit alone once again when I hear the front door open, I don't move I know who it is. Years of having this gift I can scene anyone. I pretend not to hear when she walks into the room and sits down beside me at the table.
"I had another bad dream" she tells me
"So you came back"
"You said our children last night"
"Yes, mine and yours"
"Where are thay"
"So know you believe me"
"I don't know what to believe but the dreams are so real and they feel real"
I nod "I can't tell you where they are"
"Why not"
"That's something you have to remember on your own"
"Why" she ask not understanding
"If I tell you it will only start again"
"How do I remember" she ask "In my dreams or is there another way"
"We'll get to that, are you hungry"
"I am, who is the other guy in my dreams can you tell me that"
I look at her, she dreams of him, but of course she does he was her nightmare, I nod "Victor"
"So you can tell me that"
"You didn't really know him, I can only fell in bits and peace's"
"Do I have to stay here" she ask and I can tell she really doesn't want to
