-Mistakes-

Chapter 12

**LIAM’S POV**

I lay over Hope’s limp body awaiting the comforting sound of her voice, even if it was going to be screaming at me.

I wasn’t quite sure what was wrong with her mostly because I was to scared to find out

She had blood pooling out of her chest, which took all of my will power not to sink my fangs into. The bleeding had stopped, but the big stain on her shirt wasn’t helping me forget.

I had checked her neck for bites figuring that it must have been a vampire if they were fast and clever enough to get Hope, my Hope.

I decided that both of us would feel much more comfortable if I put her in a fresh shirt, so I quickly got up and grabbed a blue one to match her eyes.

I slowly lifted to white V-neck tee shirt off her small frame revealing the spot where she had obviously been stabbed on her upper stomach.

At least now I knew that she would heal, it would just take a little while.

I quickly covered her up with the blue tee shirt unable to stare at the wound for much longer without gagging.

Hope groaned as I rested her back down.

I tensed up not thinking that she would wake up so soon.

I stuffed her shirt under the bed and ran my hand through my hair. No matter what I did I knew that I was going to look like crap after I had cried so much. I wiped my cheeks anyway and folded my arms over each other as I watched her eyes flutter open to reveal their familiar icy blue.

Hope started to scan her surroundings still not noticing me. She tried to lift herself up but quickly crumbled back into the bed as the pain of the whole in her stomach started to kick in.

She groaned again as she turned her head to face me

“L-Liam?” she asked.

“Hey” I said giving her a weak smile unable to act normal around her when she looked so weak.

“Where am I?” she asked

“This” I started as I held up my hands “is my new room” I said giving her a smile attempting to cheer her up

“I’m hungry,” she said staring at my neck.

“I thought you were Hope? “I tried.

She gave me a stupid look “You used that one already” she said referring to the first day we met.

I chuckled at her annoyance happy to see that I had Hope back even if she was going to be rude.

My eyes went serious as I realized the problem at hand

I cleared my throat “what happened to you?” I asked.

She gave me a weird look as I directed my gaze to her stomach.

She slowly lifted it up to reveal the wound before pulling it down.

“It was Jai,” she said shuffling to get up and cringing at the pain.

“W-what? Who, hope stand still” I said trying to steady her unsuccessfully.

Hope threw her legs over the bed with her eyes tightly shut as if they could block out the pain.

“He is coming I have to get out of here before he comes!” she said attempting to get up.

I put my hand over hers “I wont let anybody hurt you! Just calm down.” I said giving her another smile.
