So- I am going to continue to work on this but I've decided to debut a new story I will be writing. I know it can be difficult to work on multiple stories at once but it will help my brain and thought process. Trust me.
Crystal's p.o.v-
My eyelids felt heavy to lift. It took a minute of trying to get them up the whole way.
I immediately felt my body aching. I sighed. But I was comfortably tucked into the blankets on the bed. I was guessing Alaric probably did it...
The room was dimly lit but I could tell that the sun was shining outside.
Every single memory from last night started to clash with each other inside of my head. It caused me to close my eyes again.
Oh god... what did they do with Andy!? What did they do to him!?
I sat up, groaning loudly. That's when I noticed a styrofoam cup sitting on the nightstand beside the bed with a note.
'Crystal- Drink this. You still need to regain your strength. Let me know when you're awake.
-Alaric'
It was blood. I grabbed it and opened the straw, sticking it into the cup before immediately beginning to chug. It tasted- sooooo good.
"Baby?"
I hadn't heard the front door open and I stopped mid sip, the cup suddenly trembling in my hands. No.... I didn't want to react like this to him.
"You're scared." He appeared in the doorway. His voice was quiet. His hair was a mess again and he had dried blood on his neck and his clothes.
He examined me and the bed. His face pained.
It was then that I realized there were brown stains here and there on the cover. Dejavu.
"I won't hurt you. I promise. Crystal I promise. Please... can I come closer?"
I swallowed hard watching him take a single step forward, his hands in the air in surrender.
I closed my eyes for a brief moment and bit my lip.
"I'm so sorry sweetheart. I'm so sorry..." His voice cracked.
"Andy..." I whispered, opening my eyes. "Come here, please..."
He quickly sat on the bed next to me, obviously being careful not to touch me. But I surprised him by grabbing his wrist and pulling him into me.
His arms wrapped around me tightly and he buried his face in my neck, exhaling deeply. "Crystal..." I could feel the relief radiating from his body. He was shaking.
"Andy it's ok. I'm ok."
"It's not ok.... you're not ok. I almost killed you." He lifted his face to look me in the eyes. His beautiful blue eyes. My thought made him smile.
"I know that you were put under a spell last night. You would never purposely hurt me like you did. You should know that I know that...."
His eyes bore into mine. Reading me. Digging back into my thoughts, I could feel him. He cringed.
"You were terrified... but you did know I was possessed... I never want to make you feel that way ever again. I'm going to set fire to Emmett's body and watch him burn. I want to hear his screams of agony."
"He's behind this?" My voice trembled. Would he ever stop trying to have me for his own?
"Yes, it was him but it doesn't matter. The next time he tries, I'll be there and when I am, he's going to die."
