Forever Timeless

Chapter Five

Lucy POV

I turned the leather bound journal over in my hands, debating whether or not to read it. It just seemed so crazy that this was mine or even could be mine. Finally, I let out a small sigh and opened the journal to the front cover. I squinted, attempting to read the writing on the inside cover in the dark. I nearly gasped, though, when I saw the name in familiar handwriting. Lucy Logan. I brought the book closer attempting to ensure that I had read correctly when my eyes skimmed the photo on the adjoining page. It was of Wyatt and I. I was in a beautiful white dress, holding light aqua and white flowers that matched Wyatt's tie, looking up at him smiling. He had his arm wrapped around my waist, his face reflecting mine. That when I noticed the gorgeous venue behind us and the wedding banner above our heads. It looked so real. We looked happy and safe, and that was supposed to be my future. I slammed the book shut and sunk down into my bed again as I heard a light rustling across the room.

"Lucy?"

Of course. Of course Wyatt would wake up. Just after I found a picture like that.

"Are you okay?" he questions his voice still husky from sleep.

It was actually kind of attractive. The thickness that coated his voice in comparison to his normal relaxed tone. No. No. We work together.

I swallow, trying to gain at least a little composure, "Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine. I was just reading some stuff from the journal and it just all seems absurd."

I heard Wyatt move around for a few seconds before the light switched on and he was sitting by my legs on my bed, "It'll be okay. Whatever is in that book isn't 100% your fate. More just like guidelines."

My mind briefly went to the photo and name, and I my spirit briefly dampened at the thought that this wasn't my set and stone future, "I know."

"Lucy, look at me," he said softly, "Don't worry about the journal to much. You even knowing about that journal will change things. Make things happen, not happen, happen slower, or sooner. It really is just more like guidelines, Lucy."

I nod quickly, "Okay. I'm sorry for waking you up."

He smiles at me and begins to stand, "Goodnight, Lucy. I'll see you in a few hours, " he lays a light kiss on my forehead and switches out the light and climbs into bed.

Why, god, why? Why did I have to see that picture and name, and then have the thoughts planted into my brain. Like it isn't like I didn't already find Wyatt attractive and smart and kind, but then things had to be poked and prodded and here I am. Of course. I sigh and curl up under the covers once again closing my eyes, attempting to keep thoughts of what is yet to be from entering my head.
------------------------
I groan as Rufus leans over me and taps my shoulder roughly, "We need to go, Lucy."

"I was heading downstairs to grab breakfast, and I saw Flynn outside. Wyatt has already packed all our stuff up, but we need to go now. Wyatt pulled a dress out for you. It's in the bathroom. Hurry, and get dressed."

I roll out of the bed and grab my dress, heading into the bathroom. I finish changing and return to Wyatt and Rufus, who are standing near the stairs of the hotel.

"Did you grab the journal?" I question Wyatt.

"Yeah, it is in your bag," he answers looking around the corner for Flynn.

I poke my head around the corner as Flynn exits the inn and nod my head towards him.

"We should follow him," I sigh setting my bag down.

Wyatt turns to me and grins, "Alright, let's go."

"I'll stay here, and watch over the bags. You know?" Rufus says shifting his weight.

Wyatt nods and we sneak out past the small cafe and towards Flynn's location, across from the hotel. We stay still for a few minutes until Wyatt rests his hand on my arm motioning for me to follow him. We stand and make our way towards Flynn, who's back is turned to us.

"What are you doing?!" I whisper to Wyatt

He doesn't respond, but continues walking towards Flynn still motioning for me to follow. I go wide eyed as Wyatt rests a hand on Flynn's shoulder, and he spins around to face us.

"Well, well, well. Wyatt Logan and Lucy," Flynn sighs disappointedly, "You two just keep ruining things for me. Coming back from the 1700's and now ruining my meeting with Edward. Not very polite."

Flynn grins once more and turns away from us. Just as Wyatt reaches out to grab Flynn again, I feel Wyatt tumbling to the ground. I catch Wyatt by the arms, falling to the ground with him, and turn around to see one of Flynn's guys heading towards the abandoned building we picked up their Lifeboat to be. I turn my attention back to Wyatt, who's eyes are struggling to stay open.

"C'mon Wyatt. Stay Awake. We just need to get you back to the lifeboat. Hold on," I whisper, running my fingers through his hair, "RUFUS! Get over here!"

I continue to try and keep Wyatt awake when I hear Rufus run up with our things, "Help me get him up."

I wrap one of Wyatt's arms around my neck and the other around Rufus'. We begin to carry him to the Lifeboat and across the field. After twenty minutes of near dragging Wyatt, I settle him into his seatbelt, buckling it and making sure he was still awake.

I shut my eyes as I felt the Lifeboat whir and take off. Unbuckling my seat belt when we landed, I got Wyatt out and helped him to the door of the lifeboat. I helped him down as the door opened and Jiya rushed towards us trying to help me with Wyatt.

"Wyatt stay awake," I whispered, "Where can we put him?"

"Take him to the med bay," I hear Christopher say as she pushes a wheel chair towards me.

I help Wyatt into the wheel chair, "Keep your eyes open, Wyatt."

I give him a small smile as I see him nod. I push him to the med bay and watched worriedly as the doctors set him onto a bed. As cords we're hooked up to him, blood taken, and his head checked I began wringing my hands due to the stress. When the doctors finally left the room I pulled a chair up by a sleeping Wyatt and pressed a long kiss to his forehead.He really needed to be okay. I smiled once more before pulling the leather journal out of the bag sitting next to me, once again looking at the picture of Wyatt and I from our future wedding, before flipping through it as I watched Wyatt sleep.
