The Host (sequel The Seekers)

The Host: A New World

Chapter 1:

Wanda's POV:

Everything doesn't seem right any more. I look at Ian and feel disgust in my self. I wish that I could go back and fix my mistakes. Telling him would be the hard part and everybody will turn on us once they find out.

I took a look into my daughters eyes. Blue. Not like my blue, but and ocean blue. She's so innocent.

Ian and I decided to name her Hope. Of course I talked to Jared about it. He liked it so we kept it.

Jared rarely visited me.

We didn't want suspicions to come up.

I wanted him there for the baby.

I mean it was his.

Why?

Why does everything have to be so complicated?

It feels like just yesterday, Ian and I were happy. But in this world, happiness can only last so long.

Nights have been hard for me to sleep.

The guilt is eating me Alive.

The killer part is when Ian refers himself to dad.

What have I gotten myself into.

Jared's POV:

I messed up. It's my fault. I'm in this situation because of my foolish mistakes. I put Wanda through all of that. She's beautiful though. Little baby Hope looks just like me. She would be disgusted with me if she knew about all this. She'll probably never forgive me when she gets older. Ian will beat me to a pulp. If he doesn't kill me, he'll at least kick me out. And then Melanie will be upset. Mel. She'll be just as disgusted as everyone else. She may never even speak to me again. I've screwed up really bad this time. I cant fix it. The consequences are bad. Maybe it's best if we don't say anything.

I went to go find Mel. I needed her more then ever. I feel like I've shut off everybody lately. I still love her.

"Melanie. Are you busy?"

"No, but since you called me by my full name, I assume it's important." She said. And she was right.

" I've been in this slump lately. Everybody hates me. I feel like each day I have less and less to live for. There's only one thing keeping me here."

" Its the baby, isn't it?" She said.

I was completely shocked. How did she know? I didn't tell anyone.

" How do you know that?"

" Jared, I'm not stupid. That baby looks just like you. Ian is just too blinded by love to see it."

"You hate me don't you. I screwed up. I really did." I said

" Jared, even if you killed the most important person to me, I would still love you. I know you Jared, and you aren't the type to make foolish mistakes. I'm sure you have a logical answer. Which I really would not want to hear."

"Mel. What do I do now."

" you can't keep this to yourself. You need to tell them. You need to tell Ian."

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!

1: I've decided to just keep adding to this story instead of writing a new one.

2: y'all are probably mad at waiting all this time for this short crappy chapter. I know. But it was better then nothing.

I've had a lot to do and school before this.

3: I haven't really had the motivation to write so give me feedback and it inspires me more!

Well Merry Christmas Guys!! Or Kwanza or Hanukkah. Or whatever you celebrate!

This is my little present to you.

And I'm not promising a new chapter but there is most likely going to be one since it's break.
