Nine: Arm Cast

Getting back into Alister's POV, if you liked Silvers pov maybe I'll do another one...for now enjoy!

I don't know when but I had somehow fallen asleep again after thinking about the dream I had. The dream stuck with me. I remember everything detail the people, the suds, the way the sky looked, the voices, and especially the man with green hair. I couldn't recall him from anywhere, but the others for some reason I could sense that I might have known them from somewhere. But the man with green hair was different. Especially his eyes...his right eye was a normal dark blue, but his left. There was no way to describe it, it was colorful in a disturbing way and it made him look like a bad guy.

My thoughts were interrupted by a huge jolt of pain, it ran up my arm and into my shoulders blade. Sharp like a knife cutting through butter. I whined, looking over at my broken arm to see that it had been put in a colorful cast, colors of blue and green bounced across the white base. I closed my eyes and forced myself to breathe slowly.

"Relax, I had my doctor friend take a look at you. He said your arm is probably really broken and wants to cast it for a few months." Alberich's cruel voice hit my eardrums and I nodded. I opened my eyes again to see Silver sitting next to me, he held out one hand with a pill and the other a cup of water.

"Drink." He said lightly and did, I could tell it was a pain pill, but if it wasn't, what was the worst that could happen? Death? I swallowed the pill without hesitation and leaned into a wall behind me.

"Well, the man said if Alberich was nice enough he would x-ray your arm to see what's wrong with it." Silvers voice was kinder than Alberich's and Alberich went storming out with Silvers comment.

"I was nice enough to even have him get it looked at! You should be grateful." Alberich said harshly as he went into his office.

"Thank you..." I said coughing lightly. Again the dream popped up in my head and I felt different emotions enter all at the same time, some were new emotions I've never felt before.
"Silver? Can you tell me more about your life when your were younger?" I said closing me eyes, "Just until I fall asleep again?" I kept hoping that maybe Silver would let me in and help him feel more like himself again.

He let out a dramatic sigh and I could visualize him behind closed eyes flicking his long hair behind his shoulder. "Fine. I'll tell you about my travels Alister."

"Call me Allie." I whispered.

"Okay, let's go somewhere more comfortable." With that Silver picked me up but I kept my eyes closed. With every step I heard his heavy feet colliding with the wood floors.

A crying door echoed in my ears as it opened and closed. I sank into a plush bed, the mattress welcoming me into comfort. Silver placed a poofy pillow behind my head and covered me with a fuzzy blanket. I heard the scraping of a chair being drug over towards the bed.

"Okay where to begin. Let's see...
It began when I was around the age of five, my parents were a pretty famous couple around where I first lived, Parié. But they already had two other children running around...so they decided to get rid of one, which was me. They didn't see 'potential' in me. So I was sent to an orphanage for the Fae, where my first adventures began. I had no trouble getting adopted at first because I was only five and I was adorable. I will admit it.

My first adventure with a new family started with a young couple named Lord Dauni, and Lady Dauni. They were sweet at first and they always said they wanted a child. They lived in Texas, so that's where I headed. They kept me for two weeks before sending me to a different orphanage in Texas, they complained that I was different and too difficult to deal with..."

I listened to every word Silver said, catching every part of them and tried to place all the pieces in my mind. But they kept slipping, my mind was tired and so was my body. I fianlly stopped fighting the urge to sleep and let Silver's rambling send me crashing into another hectic dream of waves.

"But my second family was more of a strict family. They had two other kids who hated me. Laylia and Sadie. They hated my guts and their parents ignored me, so of course I was sent back to the orphanage..." Silver stopped, seeing that I was asleep. He smiled, got up, and kissed my forehead. "Good night Allie, sleep tight." he whispered as he pulled the door shut.
