Back at my place, me and Luke ended up playing numerous games of Mario Kart. And boy did he suck at dodging red shells.
"Why do you keep slapping me with the red shells ? There's literally 4 other racers you could hit !" Luke whined.
"Because, I don't know them and besides I like annoying the hell out of you Lukey." I teased.
Before Luke could make a comeback however, my phone started ringing and my heart soared in hopes that it was my Mother or Brother with good news. I checked the caller I.D and it said MOM, so I quickly hit answer.
"Mom ?" I said hesitant. "Did you find Dad ?"
Luke pauses the game for me, so I can properly hear as I wait for my Mom to answer.
"The state troopers found him all banged up in the woods, thankfully he was still breathing. but he's...." My Mom stopped, seeming to struggle to say her next words.
"He's what Mom ?" I asked worried. "Please tell me he's going to be ok ?"
I could hear my Mom exhale as she tried to compose herself over the phone.
"He's in a comatose state right now, but the Doctors said he's stable and could wake up anytime." Mom said, I could hear my brother asking her for the phone.
"Hailey, don't worry about Dad, he's going to be fine." Kaden said. "He squeezed my hand when I asked if he could hear me..."
My Brother wasn't in any better shape than Mom was..
"Kaden where are you ?" I asked. "I can be there in like a hour if you give me the address now."
"Mom wants you to stay home and rest. She says you shouldn't over exert yourself after your little fainting spell." Kaden said hesitantly. "I know you're worried about him but I promise we will keep an eye on him, just get some rest and we will call later."
What ? They wanted me to stay home after Dad was mauled ? They couldn't possibly be serious !! I wasn't some kid that needed protection.
"Kaden, I can't just sit at home while Dad is hurt !" I stated.
"Hales. Please don't fight me on this, just this once. Do it for Dad." Kaden pleaded with me.
I sighed, I hate being the younger sibling sometimes.
"Fine." I huffed. "But I expect a call as soon as you know something."
"Of course. Also is that Luke guy still with you ?" He asked, I turned to look at Luke who was currently staring out at the patio outside.
"Yeah.. why ?" I said rolling my eyes.
"He can stay but just for the night. I don't want you alone up there by yourself after what happened." Kaden said.
"Fine. Look I got to go but give Dad a kiss for me." I said and we said our goodbyes.
I set my phone down and sighed with relief. The good news was my Dad was alive, but what about what the pack leader was after ? He wouldn't have given up so easily.
"What did he say ?" Luke asked, his eyes still trained outside.
"My Dad was found alive in the woods. But he's currently in a coma.." I replied grimly. "They don't know much more than that."
I sat back on the couch and grabbed my controller.
"Luke ?" I asked, he seemed like he was in a trance staring outside.
Why was he staring outside like his life depended on it ?
"Luke !" I shouted and he seemed to get his bearings and stared back at me confused.
"What's wrong ?" Luke asked, I shook my head.
Was everyone acting weird tonight or was it just me ?
"Don't you wanna finish the match before we eat ?" I asked, Luke sat down and took his controller.
"I'm beating you." He said determination in his voice.
I laughed, glad he was back to his old self, I turned my eyes towards the patio doors and saw a full moon. That means Calum might be out tonight. Maybe I'd text and see if he can sneak over.
Later that day, we both layed on the couch watching Twilight, I know the irony right ? Luke was passed out snoring up a storm, his long ass legs just splayed on the coffee table.
I turned off the tv and put a blanket over Luke before heading upstairs to take a shower. As I got up to my room, I saw my window was open.. I thought I had closed it ?
I sighed and went to shut it when a blue crystal sitting on my windowsill caught my attention. What the ? When I put my hand near it, I felt this really strong energy just flowing around it.
"What the hell ?" I mumbled, I grabbed it and the crystal started to glow a bright blue color.
I stared at in awe, what in the world was going on ? And who put this crystal here ? A few seconds later it stopped glowing and the strong feeling it had dissipated.
I shook my head and dropped the crystal in my nightstand drawer and went to get ready for bed.
Later after I had fallen asleep, I had the strangest dream..
I was walking in the woods in the nightgown I went to bed in.... I walked slowly as if in a trancelike state. The trees swayed in the light wind as I made my way to wherever it was that I was going.
'Hailey..'
I heard this strange voice calling out to me.
'Haillley'
I once again strayed off the path and seem to be heading towards Echo Lake... I walked towards the lake, making my way towards the dock.
'Hailey find it.'
Find what ? My feet continued to move until I was at the edge of the dock, I stared off at the far side of the lake. Something was calling to me but I had no idea what.
"Hailey."
This voice sounded different.
"Hailey ?"
It's sounded a lot like Calum.
I suddenly woke up. but I wasn't in my bedroom or even on my couch, which is where I often woke up after sleep walking. I was standing on the dock of Echo Lake...
Wait a minute, wasn't I just dreaming about going there ? Then I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Calum.
"Hailey, what are you doing here ?"
