I tried to stand up but fell. Luckily Jayden caught my arm before I hurt myself more. We have a raised bed and it's high enough to at least scrape your skin off if you fall hard enough. I exhaled. I didn't know I was holding my breath until I Breathed again. " thanks..." I said. " no problem " he said. " you should stay in bed. You're hurt." He said. " No, I'm fine. Promise." I said. " No your not. I'm going downstairs to get you some soup. It's my turn to take care of you for a change." He said helping me back into the bed. " fine." I said climbing back into bed. " stay put. I'll go get your soup." He said walking out.

I sighed. I can't stay like this for too long... what if something happens and I can't help... I tried to sit up but my headache came back and I winced and laid back down. A couple minutes later, Jayden came in with a bowl of soup on a tray. I sat up wincing. He handed it to me. " thanks" I said " maybe next time, you shouldn't over use your power like you did." He said. " ya think?" I said sarcastically. He chuckled. " I'm serious... I don't wanna lose you." He said. " but im immortal, you can't lose me." I said confused. " oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that the godly guy power-- whatever is name is-- told me that you can die a certain amount of times before you actually die." He said. " w-what?! How did you forget to tell me?!" I asked. He scratched the back of his head. " yeah... you know sometimes I forget things under pressure! It's not my fault!" He exclaimed. I sighed. " sorry, sorry. You're right. I'm just astounded at this. How many lives exactly?" I asked. " he said it varies from person to person." He explained. " did you ask him about mine?" I asked. " remember the whole thinking thing and how I forget under pressure? Well uh yeah that happened. I think he said like you had two or three left... ugh I can't remember." He said. " T-TWO OR THREE?! " I asked now yelling. " um, yeah." He said. " WHY ARE YOU SO CALM ABOUT THIS?!" I screamed.

" cause death is an inevitable thing that will eventually happen so may as well stop fighting it. " he said. " it's the circle of life." He sang. I chuckled. " and a wheel of shreddies!" I sang. We have this thing but that's not important right now. " " c'mon eat your soup."  He said. " fine." I said. He kissed me on the forehead. " I'm going to go run some errands. You sure you'll be ok by yourself? " he said. "Yeah, I think I'll be fine." I said. " ok, bye sweetie." He said. I heard the door alarm go off and then him turning it off. Then I watched the car driving away. I stood up wincing. I got all dizzy. I'll be fine. I walked towards the stairs. Uh-oh.
