Williams POV

Fucking hell.

My alarm clock was going off the hook and my arm was moving so sluggishly I could barley get to it to turn it off.

I growled and threw it on the floor, hearing it shatter. Alarm clock number 12, terminated. I sighed.

I tried to pull myself out of bed, but I felt like my entire body was moving in slow motion. All because I never took my pills last night.

I hated having to depend on a few little tablets to get me through the day. It was stupid really. Not to mention, I had a doctors appointment tomorrow.

I was extremely on edge, I was scared shitless when I saw the spot returning on my hip. I'm scared that it has come back, to retake my life from me once again.

Between everything that had been happening, I'd lacked a lot of sleep. I finally fell asleep at around 4:00 am. I was completely out of it, and I still needed to find my medication.

I would have taken it if I knew were the hell it was. I could have easily guessed who hid it from me and it honestly pissed me off.

If I wasn't suffering from an extremely low blood pressure, lack of sleep, and possibly other things, Alex would be nothing but a bloody smear across my carpet by now.

I didn't even need him to admit he'd done it, he'd never admit to it. But I knew he did. All because he knew I wouldn't let Corrine meet him alone. She's so blinded by him. He's nothing but evil.

I trudged to my closet to grab some clothes, determined not to let my sickness keep me away from my duty.

Yes, watching over Corrine was my duty. I'd told her I'd meet her and be with her to see Alex. I don't break my promises. Especially not to her. Not after the guilt I felt about saying all those awful things to her on the phone.

Between the two of us, things had been said that shouldn't have been. Though I never meant a word of what I said. Corrine was a very special person. I knew she was going through something, and I knew she would tell me when she was ready.

It just scared me, because I knew she was trying to go through it alone. I knew she was trying to be stronger than she was. I knew there was so much more than she was letting on.

Why am I so intrigued by her?

I pulled out some basic clothes and slipped them on to the best extent I could. I then shook out my hair a bit and sighed at my reflection.

Saying I looked like shit was a complete understatement.

I slowly lifted my shirt and looked at the only thing I was proud of. My toned Abs. I tried to look past the bruises that dotted certain areas. I tried to overlook the scratches and the scars. I looked deeply at the spot on my hip and I felt the tears rise to my eyes.

No, I wouldn't cry over this.

I grabbed my bag and walked downstairs. I felt extremely light headed and the ground looked like it was approaching me in waves.
