Lola Swan: Trough her eyes (1)

Epilogue

Lola blinks. There is a white void, and when it fades away. She sees that it's the ceiling. She tries to sit up and fails. She remembers what happened. Is she in a hospital?

'You're ok.' She hears, and she looks next to her. There stands Jonah. He takes her hand in his and smiles. 'You're ok.' He repeats en kisses the side of her head.

'You're here.'

'Of course, Edward called and told me what happened. You didn't wake up and ....' He sounds relieved.

'I'm fine. My sister is she....' She looks at the other side, but there isn't anything there.

'You saved her.' he tells her. He keeps holding her: 'She is still in the hospital but only because of her broken leg. She can go home later today.' She smiles at him.

When the nurse comes in to check on Lola. Jonah tells her he is going to get her parents. 'How do you feel?' the nurse asks.

'I'm fine.' She says, which is the truth, she feels exhausted, but she wouldn't tell her that.

The nurse measures her blood pressure: 'Everything looks normal. If you say you feel ok, then you can go home today. But if something changes when you are home, contact a doctor.'

The nurse leaves, and her mother says, 'Oh honey, you look so pale.'

'I'm good, mother.'

'Are you sure? What did the nurse say?' Her mother takes a chair a sit next to her.

'I can go home. Everything looks good.'

'And I guess you will be going back to Forks.' Her mother smiles at her when she nods: 'You know, after he got here, he rarely left. Your father had to commend him to get food or take some rest. And even that didn't always work.'

Lola knows who her mother is talking about, and she can't help herself from smiling.

'Do you love him?'

'Yes, I think I do.' Her mother looks down at her: 'How long was I out?' she asks.

'Two full days, Bella was so worried. I think she blames herself.'

'It's not her fault, ...' she stops talking when she sees Jonah and her father.

Her father smiles at her and makes sure she is ok. He and her mother leave the room again. She looks at Jonah, standing next to her. She does love him.

Tomorrow is the first day of summer, the first day of vacation. Lola looks back at the past few months. She noticed that they were peaceful. Bella's broken leg healed, and her sister even went to prom. Lola took time for her friends, her sister, the pack and, of course, Jonah.

But there was one other thing that she had done. What happened to her sister worried her. What if Victoria wanted revenge or if they would cross another dangerous path. She needs more methods to keep everyone safe. She needs more knowledge.

She searched for more books and bought a few. She even found one that mentioned her family. At first, she was surprised, but what it said was helpful. It had more info about the dagger she had read about. She has to find it.

She searched for it in many places. It was a long process and a difficult one. In the end, she found a lead. This brought her to a place called: 'Mystic Falls'. She would go there, but first, she must prepare. And this summer would be perfect. Next time she needs to protect someone, she will know what to do. She will be ready.
