The Host (sequel The Seekers)

Chapter 2: relieved

"Hey I didn't mean to barge in. Sorry if you were sleeping" Kyle and I weren't on the best terms but I was out of his radar and that's all I care about. " Its fine Kyle. What did you need?"

"I was just going to remind you that your supposed to have lunch with Sunny today."

Shoot. I forgot I made plans with her. " Sunny hasn't shut up about it. She really has been dying to talk someone who is like her." "Ok, Kyle. I'll meet up with her soon."

Right as Kyle walked out, Ian walked in.

"What the hell did he want?"

" He was just reminding me I had plans with Sunny."

" Wanda, you need to rest today. I know you constantly want to help but if you keep working to hard your going to wear down your body."

Ian was right. I work to much. But I couldn't cancel on Sunny.

" Ian, I can't cancel on her. It's just for a couple of hours. I'll be fine. I'm not your child. I can take care of myself." Ian looked mad and upset. I shouldn't have said that.

"Wanderer, I do all of this because I love you."

" Ian I love you, I do but you care too much. I'm going to have lunch with Sunny and that's final."

I marched out of the room and straight to the dining area.

I saw Sunny patiently waiting for me.

" Hi Sunny"

" Hello Wanda"

I sat down and Sunny started a conversation about her lives on the different planets.

I tried to focus but I was sleep deprived.

Things became blurry. Black dots were all I could see and finally I went in to a deep sleep.

When I woke up, I wasn't in my room. The room was smaller and have a very familiar scent.

The scent of which belonged to none other then Jared Howe.
