When we all returned from the hospital the next day, Mr. Kensington made an announcement.
"I would like to announce that we will be taking a trip to Europe in 2 days!" Mr. Kensington said with a toothy grin. I was placing a tray of cheese, crackers and wine on the coffee table.
"Hooray!" Mrs. Kensington exclaimed and clapped her hands together joyfully. I placed down a few napkins.
"But dad, Ara and I just got back from the hospital!" Alec protested. His hands had been wrapped in bandaged like most of my body had been.
My hands had been feeling tingly all day and the burning was off and on. I wasn't sure what to think of the strange light and dreams from my mom. I had a feeling it had something to do with the Scientists and whatever they had done to me.
"Then you and her will stay here, Will, you will stay as well and take care of them." Will didn't protest, he just smirked and looked my way.
"Then we must get packing!" Anthea said. She had returned home for the weekend since Harris was out of town and she probably wanted to go to Europe more than anybody else.
"Yes, Ara and Alec, you two should get some rest." He both nodded in agreement and made our way upstairs.
"So a weekend all to ourselves, and with Will of course." I raised an eyebrow.
"Don't get any ideas Alec Kensington." I warned him. He laughed and furrowed his eyebrows.
"Yes Ara, I'm going to rape you like I did to the rest of our burned up servants." He said sarcastically. I chuckled.
"Sorry about the whole pool thing by the way, I don't know what happened." I confessed.
"No problem, it was something with the lights and pool stuff, burns heal right?" I nodded and he took my hand in his.
"Get some rest now, we've got a big night tomorrow." He joked. I rolled my eyes and gave him a peck on the cheek. WHo cares if he had a girlfriend, I was winning that race. He smirked and went into his room. I retreated to mine and took a seat on my bed. I threw off my clothes and cuddled in under the covers before falling asleep into another one of my crazy, mixed up dreams.
