I should probably tell her everything. The reason why I'm a teacher and not a doctor. I'll wait until she's awake cause it currently 5am.

My eyes fluttered open when I smelt the bacon. I freaking love bacon! I dashed to the kitchen and jumped onto a chair. Chris brought us both plates with breakfast and he sat down. He sighed.

"Chris.. What's wrong?" I asked Sincerely.

" I want to tell you why I wasn't accepted into being a legal Doctor. Well I was for about 4 months but I lost my job." He said

"What? Why?" I asked surprised

"I was operating on one of my patients. He was getting a heart transplant and when I was in the middle of the operation he suddenly died. I was about to stitch up the skin together when his heart stopped. We tried so hard to revive him! The worst part is that he was my cousin. He was only 27!" He put his head in his hands

"I'm a murderer." He mumbled

I sat there shocked.

"You are not a murderer! It wasn't your fault that he died. You were almost finished." I whispered/yelled

"My family disowned me when the news came out. I don't talk to Crawford anymore. My parents don't care about me. I haven't seen them in 2 years. I have holidays alone or with my friend Jack." He explained.

"That's fucked up. Well your not alone anymore. I'm here and I'm not leaving anytime soon. I promise!"

He smiled.

*at night*
We decided to watch movies tonight since we were too lazy to do anything. I made the popcorn and he got the movies. We both met at the couch and snuggled since it was freezing. (Mid December) Of course he chose horror which I despised. He played the movie which was Sinister and started gobbling down the popcorn. Mid way into the movie I was spooked out. I jumped and screamed at this one part. He grabbed me and hugged me tightly.

"It's okay I'll protect you" he whispered.

At the end of the movies we ordered pizza. We were eating pizza when the phone rang. I walked to get the phone.

Chris was behind me. He was about to take the phone but he was frozen.

"Tell me now!" I demanded

He told me that he had borrowed/stole money and never returned it about 3 years ago. I didn't think it was that bad. He must have not told me something. I let it go. I will make him tell me everything tomorrow. I was too tired to get fully into the topic. I was drifting to sleep when I hear Chris whisper,

"I will Protect you from them I promise"
