"Ugh!" Katherine groan as she sat up

"You're awake," Ciara said

"My head is killing me," Katherine whined as she looked up at Ciara

"That's what happens when you drink more than 3 glasses of bourbon with coke," Ciara said, handing Katherine a glass of water and a pill

"Thank you. Plus, why didn't you stop me?" Katherine said, popping the pill in her mouth and taking a gulp of the water

"Believe me, I tried, but you were acting like a brat," Ciara said, flicking Katherine on the forehead

"Ciara, that hurts," Katherine whined

"Well, you should behave yourself. You even puke all over that man, you called your fiance," Ciara said

"What man?" Katherine asked, her eyes widening

"What was his name?" Ciara mumble, "Nick. Levin. No,"

"Ciara, was his name Nathaniel?" Katherine asked

"Yes. He carried you the way back here. Let me tell you, he didn't want to leave, but I made sure he did," Ciara said

"God," Katherine groan, burying her face into the pillow

"Katherine, I want to know is he really your fiance?" Ciara asked

"No," Katherine said, "But, I wish he was," She mumbles

"Did you say something?" Ciara asked

"No, but I do need to take a shower. I smell of vomit," Katherine said, sitting up

"I'll start the bath. You just stay there," Ciara said, walking out of the living room

"I miss this," Katherine said, staring at the bowl of carrot soup

"You can live with me, Katherine," Ciara said, placing her bowl down and sitting

"I can't. I don't want to leave Isla and Ro alone after they saved me and took care of me. Plus, I still have to find that woman to understand what she meant," Katherine said

"I can find that woman, but are you sure you don't want to stay?" Ciara asked

"I'm sure. By the way, what time is it?" Katherine asked

"9:16 am. Why?" Ciara said

"Shit," Katherine spluttered, she places the spoon back in the bowl

She got up and ran to the living room, where her things were. She put her shoes on and tied them. She threw her coat on and grabbed her bag.

"Ciara, where are the clothes I had on before?" Katherine asked

"I'm drying them. Even why are you in a hurry?" Ciara said, her hands on her hips

"I was supposed to go back last night. Isla might be going out of her mind right now," Katherine said

"Do you want me to come with you?" Ciara asked

"No, it's fine. I'll just come back later or tomorrow to get my clothes," Katherine said

"Kat, I'll come with you. Just to make sure you get there safe," Ciara said, slipping her coat on

"No, Ciara. You stay. I'm going to go now," Katherine said, walking pass Ciara and open the front door

"No goodbye or anything," Ciara said

Katherine looked at Ciara and gave her a hug, "I'll see you soon," Katherine let go and left through the front door.

Unknown P.O.V.

Looking beautiful as always, Katherine. But you'll be more beautiful when blood cascade down your body and your lifeless eyes screaming for help. Oh, how I can't wait for that day which will come soon.
