In Another Life

Chapter Twenty Two: Vicy

C.C's hand roamed around my back as we sat in the kitchen talking to Bobby and Bret, Rikki was getting their beer. I felt something wrong in my heart and I didn't know what, it's mid September me and C.C. we're to get married next month on Halloween. C.C. -but when we are alone I call him Bruce to get on his nerves- frowned at me "Your not going to wear a dress are you?" He asked.
I laughed "I might. I don't know. I need to go looking for that don't I?" I said, just talking "Maybe I should get Minnie to come and-" and he put his hands on my one "Vicy, she won't come."
A tear fell down my cheek as I looked away from the boys, and close so see my eyes. She's the only one who knows I have cancer, the only one I can talk to, my only family. My parents died in a house fire and no I lived in a orphanage all my life in New York, until I finally got out on my own and adopted Minnie.
I nodded "I know-" i started as the phone rang, i went over and answered it "Hello?" I asked.
"Victoria Mercury" someone said, I sighed "Yes? Who's calling?"
"New York hospital, Mia Kingsleigh has had a car accident, we need you down here" I almost dropped the phone and said "Ill be there as soon as possible."
