Fairy Tales Exist (Teen Wolf)

sickening

I rode in the ambulance with Cora. I insisted then let me. But they wouldn't let me at first because I wasn't family. Cora was in and out of consciousness but she told them that she wanted me in the ambulance. Once we got to the hospital they checked her over to put her on the bed and wrapping her head up. She then told the doctors she wanted me in the room. Again, they wouldn't let me around her because I wasn't family. I sat on the edge of the bed holding her hands as she was sleeping. I don't know why I was here. I don't know what was bringing me to her. But I knew she wanted me here. I felt like I needed to be here. So I stayed. I called Derek leaving him a few voicemails. I even called Peter. An hour past as Derek comes rushing into the room. I look at him stepping away from Cora, she grips onto my arm.

"Don't." She says. I sit back down as Derek walks over to us. He pulls a chair up to her bed and looks at her with teary eyes.

"What happened?" He asked.

"She went after Aidan. She said no one was doing anything about Boyd being dead. They told her she needed to see a doctor. She ignored us. She passed out on the ground." I tell him as he nods his head. I get up off the bed and bring mine and Cora's hands to his. He grabs onto Cora's hands as I let go of hers. She stirs a bit.

"Derek?" Cora turns to face him opening her eyes.

"Hey. Hey, I'm here." Derek says to her.

"What's happening to me?" She whimpers.

"I don't know. But I'm not leaving, okay? Not again." Derek says as he kisses her hand as she falls back asleep again.

"She's gonna be alright. Shes a fighter. Shes a Hale." I tell him. Derek looks at me again as I walk over and hug him.

After a few hours I could hear a pitch scream. Something I've heard before but this time it was louder more painful. I cover my ears with my hands. Derek's head jolts up as he looks toward the door. I uncover my ears as I look around the room.

"What was that?" I asked.

"I don't know." Derek says.

Didn't realize I fell asleep in the hospital bed next to Cora. My phone wakes me as it rings. I sat up and see Derek still sitting in the chair holding Cora's hand but his eyes were closed. It didn't seem like he was sleeping but who knows. I get up out of the bed and walk over to the counter taking my phone out of my bag. Isaac was calling. I really didn't want to talk to him right now but I'm sure it was important.

"Hey." I answer the phone.

"Alexis! Where are you? Are you ok?" Isaac rushes over his words.

"Im alright. Cora hasn't healed yet. We're at the hospital. Im fine." I yawned into the phone.

"Oh, ok. I thought the Darach got you. They got the sheriff." My heart felt like it leaped out of my chest. Pain spreads across my inner arm. A sheriff's badge appears.

"Yeah, well, Im fine. There is something else, isn't there?" I asked. I turn and face the wall.

"We need to talk about us." He sighs.

"What about us?" I tap my fingers on the table.

"You know, you, me and Allison."

"What's there to talk about? Other than the fact that you have feelings for a different person." I say casually.

"Alexis.." Isaac starts but I cut him off.

"No, it's okay. I think I've been through this before. Actually I have. So let me save myself from the Heartbreak. Are we breaking up?" I asked.

"I think it would be best." He says. My fingers stop tapping as I ball my hand up into a fist.

"Okay. Goodbye, Isaac." The phone was silent for a few seconds.

"Goodbye, Alexis." His voice comes through disappointedly.

The phone line goes dead. I slowly hang up the phone and set it back down in my bag. I didn't feel anything. I felt numb for one thing but there was no other emotions besides numb. Is numb an emotion? It is now. I took a deep breath turning back around is Derek was sitting up looking at me.

"Don't say anything. We need to worry about Cora. Not me." I climb back into the bed next to Cora and close my eyes. Can this day get any worse? After two hours, Derek got a phone call from Scott and Stiles telling him to meet them at his loft. He looks at me as I nod my head.

"Go, I'll take care of her." Derek stands over Cora and kisses her forehead, then kisses mine. My eyes widen at his actions. He hasn't kissed my forehead in a long time.

"I'm sorry for everything." He whispers then runs out the room. I lay in the bed next to Cora thinking what the hell just happened? He's sorry for everything? Everything that he's done? Everything that has ever happened to me? I'm so confused. Peter comes running into the room as he looks at Cora and me.

"Are you creating that storm out there?" Peter points at me.

"No, what storm?" I asked getting out of the bed.

"There's a large storm coming this way. There's a flood watch over in a certain area. Branches are breaking through the windows on floor level. They are evacuating. You have nothing to do with this?" He asked me again.

"Not one bit. Shes running a temperature." Peter walks over to Cora and I. He takes a wet towel and presses it across her forehead.

"Hey, anyone want to tell me when they're getting my niece out of here?" Peter yells.

"Sorry, but she wasn't, uh... You're supposed to be dead." Mama McCall says looking at Peter. Oh shit.

"I get that a lot actually." Peter says. Cora's heart monitor speeds up as she leans over the bed and throws up black and white substance.

Mistletoe." I whispered.

"Alright, she's not healing. That's the black blood. White is the mistletoe. I don't know why she's throwing that up." I state. Mama McCall pages a few doctors into our room. They start examining her body as Peter's phone rings.

"It's not good. She's in and out of consciousness. She's vomiting up black blood along with one other alarming substance." Peter says into the phone.

"How did you know that?" He asked. He looks at his phone and hangs up.
