The Timids: Oh, Honey You Know It Ain't Easy. (Fearless Vampire Killers FanFic)

Three Days Since.

Drews POV:

I watched Shane as he slowly woke up. His long eye lashes fluttered against his cheeks next to the imprint that his pillow case had left. He rolled onto his back and whispered to me. "Morning Drew. Did you sleep well?" l always wake up before him. "Yeah. You?" l whisper back to him, knowing he won't hear me.

He opens his eyes and rolls over to face my side of the bed.

"Drew? Where are you? Oh." He sighs softly and his eyes fill with tears again. This is the worst part. Every morning he wakes up and starts to talk to me and every morning l reply. Every morning l hope that he'll be able to see me or at least hear me, but there's nothing.

l wrap my arms around his tiny waist and hold him tightly as sobs begin to rake through his body. "lt's okay honey, l've got you. l'll always be here." l whisper into his greasy hair. He hasn't moved much at all since we returned from the hospital. He doesnt eat, or wash, or respond to the constant pleas of our other band mates who beg him to come out and have some sort of nourishment. lt kills me over and over again to watch him suffering through this, knowing that my words are completely useless.

l stay in bed with him for hours watching him go through his various types of crying; first it was loud angry sobs with few tears; next came the high pitched juddering sobs and floods of tears; quiet, kitten-like noises followed this and then the cycle began itself again. After a few times round he would normally fall into a light sleep which would last around half an hour before it all begins again.

This time when he wakes up he lays there silently for a moment, before dragging himself across the bed and then walking towards the door.
