Red Roses

Chapter 7- Confusion

"If you all are mates, you can't stay away from each other," Nicholas explained.

Molly glanced at Savannah. "What would happen if were separated?"

"You would feel pain. A terrible pain and a need for her," Nicholas said, keeping his eyes on Molly.

"So why didn't I feel this pain all my lifetime I have spent without her?" Molly questioned.

"Because I just marked you a few days ago," Savannah spoke up.

How long had she been gone? This hadn't occured to Molly until just now. Three days? Four? Did anyone back home miss her? Were her parents freaking out looking for her?

"I need to get back home," Molly blurted out before thinking.

Savannah sighed and put a hand on Molly's shoulder. "I understand your worries, Molly. But-"

Molly interupted her. "No. I need to go. Now."

This wasn't right. She needed to get back to her family. Fast.

Catherine frowned. "We really can't let you leave, Molly," she told her.

"Why not? I just don't understand," Molly argued.

"Because you will tell others what has happened. You'd be putting our entire coven in danger," Nicholas explained.

"I won't tell anyone about you, i promise. Please, just let me go back home. They're all probably so worried about me," Molly said as she had an image in her mind of police looking everywhere for her.

"You really think you won't tell anyone about what has happened? And me and Catherine alright sent out someone who made your parents believe that you were staying with a friend," Nicholas said.

Molly didn't know what she was suppose to feel. Angry that they wouldn't let her go home? Appreciative that they even bothered with her family?  This was too much. Savannah could tell Molly was having too much information planted on her at once.

"I'm going to take Molly to her room," Savannah said, not waiting for a reply from her parents as she already had an arm around Molly's waist and was leading her out. They walked down many different hallways that Molly began to loose track of.

"Sorry about my parents... They're very stressful," Savannah said in a light tone.

Molly shook her head. "It's not them. It's the situation. The situation is stressful."

Did she just say that out loud? Savannah mumbled an apology before coming to a stop before yet another black door. Savannah did the same motion she did with the previous guards and once the door was open, Savannah gave a light shove on Molly's back, pushing her into the room.

Molly walked into the room. It had a large purple and black bed and many cabnets, along with a large television and a purple fuzzy rug that was impossible to miss.

Savannah smiled and stood next to Molly. "You like?" She asked her.

Molly nodded and walked over to the bed and ran a hand along the covers. Feeling the soft bed made her yawn.

"I'll let you get some sleep, babe. I'll wake you up once dinner is ready," Savannah said with a smile and then left Molly alone in the room.

Molly sighed and walked to one of the cabnets and inquired its insides. She explored all the cabnets till she found some yoga pants and a t-shirt. She went into the bathroom that connected with her room and took a long and warm shower. Once she took her shower, she changed into the clothes she had found and finally sprawled out onto the bed. She felt as if she'd been waiting for this moment for her entire life. Almost right when her head had hit the pillow, she was in a deep sleep.
