The Fate Between Us
Chapter 26: Ozuna

For the rest of this week, all over the news was about this ride malfunction and how saved the young girl. My face was plastered on every article that could be, everyone attempting to get some word from me as to what actually happened in my point of view. I didn't want to talk to anyone, to face the facts about this horrible thing even if the girl and I survived. I was traumatized, I had known better to not go onto the ride in the first place. If memory could be described as an object, it'd be a movie reel, replaying over and over in your mind, not knowing if it'd ever erase from your mind. I felt like I was being suffocated by air, every little thing giving me the slightest bother. I didn't want to leave my room, I want to be surrounded by the warmness of my room, a nurturing feeling but I just felt cold internally and external. Hayes was at the door everyday and every night apologizing for what he did, I didn't need his apology, it wasn't his fault the ride did that. It wasn't his fault for whatever happened on that ride, it was my fault for wanting to get onto the ride in the first place. He didn't cause any of this, this was on my behalf, my fault, and my pain suffering.

Some nights I think I could honestly hear Hayes cry, but I didn't want to hold him, I haven't cried over this situation either. The only person I'd really let near me is Charlie, and that was because we were bonded, marked I guess you could say, bonded together. I walked over to the mirror in my bathroom, I laughed at the fact that I looked like a complete mess. I chuckled a bit before returning out into my room walking over Hercules' cage, he was sound asleep so I picked him up, cradling him so he wouldn't wake up. I stroked his soft black fur, he was the cutest little "raccoon" but he was very hyper active sometimes. An urge inside of me told me I needed to return back somewhere but I'm not sure where. I felt moody, and I was in my feelings, and I couldn't understand any of it. Was it because I was processing all of this? Or was it because I was simply home sick, I just don't understand.

Drifting me away from my thoughts my door handle jiggled as someone used a key to get in. I had only giving Charlie a spare key to get into my room, revealing that in fact it had been him. He gave me a weak smile as he stepped over Hayes at the door entering into my room , Hayes looked like a train wreck, probably worse than I did. As Charlie shut the door behind him, he saw that I had Hercules in my arms, coming over quickly to caress him as well. After about 2 minutes Charlie walked over and jumped onto my bed looking to see as to what I was watching on Netflix. He looked over at me with a dull face, turning my laptop around showing me the Grey's Anatomy screen. He gave me a slight sigh of disappointment, rolling his eyes as he searched for a movie to watch. What could I say? I love Grey's Anatomy geez, quickly walking over to him as I close down my laptop. I needed to discuss with him about this problem, about him and I, and about what the hell all of this truly means. He gave me a glance, giving me a questioning look as well, causing me to sigh as I joined him on my bed. By now  Hercules was wide awake and jumping around so I let him roam around my room for a bit as I talked to Charlie.

"Charlie what the hell is going on, I mean I know a lot of this is unexpected  but you know when it's expected, is there absolutely no way you can stop any of this future stuff from happening or hell anything I don't like about tomorrow? I just don't understand what's going on and what this certain step means when it comes to my future, my present, and how it'll change the past? How much do you know when we first bonded for the first time?" I kept coming at him with so many questions that he busted out laughing, I had a really confused look on my face as to why he would laugh about something serious like this. Maybe my humor wasn't the best after all? He died down after a while, and took in a deep breath before explaining to me as to what he knew. "Rose I swear you ask so many questions, I'm not too sure as to what is actually going on, I'm just as confused as you are, unfortunately if I change any of your expected events, it'll change the basics to your future, and that wouldn't be good. I can basically see every moment in your life from past,present, and future. You have a good life ahead of you even though you and I both know it won't end the way you want it to end... I actually know a lot about your future and present times, but something's don't really click into my head yet which I still need to sort of figure out." He glanced at the door as someone was attempting to get in.

I could hear the muffled voice calling out to me once more, I sighed as Hayes kept calling out to me, all he wanted was to talk to me. To be honest he was starting to get really annoying to me, he would constantly do this through the day, attempting to get me to talk to him. I looked over at Charlie to see if it was alright that he went away for a bit, he just threw up his hands and winked at me before walking over to the door. As he opened it, Hayes tumbled in giving sort of a shocked expression that I had finally opened the door. Charlie slipped out, leaving Hayes and I in an awkward state as we stared at each other. He attempted to get close to me to give me a hug but I had quickly brushed it off grabbing a newspaper from my drawer throwing it onto the floor. I pulled up an article on my laptop about the ride malfunction showing Hayes. He looked at the laptop  reading the article, giving me a grim face as if I was trying to make him feel bad. He then picked up the newspaper reading it once more, he looked at me confused like he had just read the same thing again. Hayes wasn't too much of an observer nor I think he could read too well as he still seemed to be confused.

"I don't get it, what's the point here exactly? They're the same article about the same thing just ones on laptop and ew who even reads newspapers anymore? " I groaned and walked over to him pointing at the dates in the article and the contrasting pictures of who's in them. He looked at them and then looked at me in shock to find out the different time zones in the article and the people in the picture. "No fucking way... you had this happen to you before Rose. Except in this case you were the little girl, wait hold up did the exact same thing happen to you or is there something different about this situation?" He looked tense, a bad tense but I simply nodded my head before explaining the situation to him. What made me the most nervous was what he was going to think about everything I was about to tell him, well at least with this side of the story.
