All Because Of Him

Chapter 4

*David's POV*

I hear someone screaming and I run to my bedroom hoping that she had awoken. I was getting so excited to see her and I wanted to tell her that I loved her so much and not to nearly go dying on me again. As soon as I get into my bedroom my heart sunk. The person that screamed was a maid. I went over to Liz, "Mother, why did the maid scream, I was hoping that Kayla was awake." I exclaimed with sadness in my voice. "Well, the doctor started extracting blood from Kayla to test it to see if she had anything wrong with her blood seeing her faint heartbeat and the maid screamed at the sight of blood and fainted." Liz said.

I look over to my right and see a girl, around age 19 on the ground with a couple of others around her with water, trying to wake her up. I walk over to where she is and she wakes up nearly immediately. "H...hello your majesty." the girl stumbles. She gets up and bows to me. "What is your name?" I ask, "Beth, sir" she replies with a hint of worry in her voice. "Okay, Beth and the rest of the maids, please leave and have the rest of the day off." I say trying to stop people from getting my hopes up again.

After all of the maids leave the room I run over to Kayla and engulf her in a hug. I start crying, first of all softly then I start bawling my eyes out. My eyes start stinging from all of the crying and I finally have to stop or else I'll black out from loss of water in my body. "Please your majesty, please let go of her. You are hugging her so tightly that you may stop her breathing permanently and not for the reason you may hope for." The doctor says clearly annoyed at how I was acting.

I reluctantly let go of her and go over to Liz, she has started crying too but she is trying to cover it up. "Mother, are you crying?" I ask knowing that she is but just wanting her to say it herself. "Well, I know that I am supposed to be strong and not cry, to try and help you not cry but it is too hard seeing you cry over her." my mother says trying not to make too much noise from her crying.

A smile starts to form on my face, the only true smile I've had in the last few hours. I hug my mother tightly, trying to show how much I appreciate that she is crying because I'm sad without saying any words and ruining the moment. Liz and I hugged for a straight 7 minutes and didn't say a thing. We would have hugged much longer but from behind us the doctor, who's name is Sean, let out a gasp.

I immediately let go of Liz and ran over to see why the doctor gasped. "What's wrong Sean? Why did you gasp? Is Kayla okay?" I say quickly and worried and not waiting between questions for the answers. "Well..." Sean started "her heartbeat stopped and from what I heard the maids say, this isn't the first time." I was so confused. First her heart stops then it starts then it stops again in a repeating cycle. What is happening to her, then it hits me, Kayla's body must be trying to fight against what will happen to her when her heart truly stops.

I don't think that this has ever happened before or at least I don't remember reading about it. I go over to Liz, "Mother, I am going to go to the library and look at some old documents. Shout on my if she starts breathing again or if she wakes up. I'll be back in an hour." I say before I run down 3 sets of stairs to the basement where the library is.

"Okay" I say to myself, "If I were a record that I haven't read before, where would I be." I look around the room. The room is roughly 20 metres high and 10 metres wide so there is a lot of space for a record. I start my searching all around the library, up and down and checking every book to see if this was ever recorded as happening.

*One hour later*

After an hour of searching I still couldn't find any records of this ever happening so I decided to go back up to the main living room, where Alfred, Kate and Dad are to ask them if they have ever heard of this happening.

As soon as I walk into the room, Dad runs up to me. "David, is Kayla okay because I know how much you care for her." Dad says. "I think she is fine," I start " She started breathing but after the doctor took her blood and she lay there for 5 minutes her heart stopped again. Have any of you heard of this happening before?" I hear Kate let out a barely audible gasp as she tries to play it off as if she didn't just gasp. I walk over to her, grab her arm and lead her out of the room with a confused Dad and Alfred.

"Kate, I heard you gasp, what was that about. Do you know what is happening" I ask her with a serious tone. She takes a few seconds to answer and the anger bubbling up inside of me. She let out a sigh. "Yes, I know what is happening to Kayla but I suggest that you sit down." Kate says as she pushes me onto the nearest seat. "Kayla's body is treating what is happening to her as a pathogen, more commonly known as a virus. Her body is trying to reject it and it is causing her to take much longer than others and  she also starts breathing now and again. There is only one other case of this ever happening but it is not recorded. That is you, you went through the exact same thing as she is going through and you only awoke 3 years after it started happening. That is why your parents are crying at seeing you sad over her, it is because it reminded them of what happened to you." Kate finishes.

I didn't know what to say. I was just sitting there, I couldn't believe it. I mightn't hear my sweet Kayla talk for another 3 years! If she even wakes up after those three years, there is always the chance that she didn't become a vampire and is still a half vampire and not a pureblood like me. I will NOT let this happen, I will get into her head and force her to go through the transformation to a vampire if it is the last thing I do!

I stood up from the seat and ran back up to my bedroom where Kayla was. As soon as I walked in, I saw Liz and Sean on the floor and a silhouette carrying a body jumping out the window. I then look at the bed, Kayla is gone!
