Celia Vargas pov
"Thanks" I said as Ambrose handed me a cup of hot chocolate. He looks in a good mood now.
"Oh Celia, are you okay now? I was so scared when I saw you fainted" I saw mrs. Woodson, Ambrose's mother. She was really concerned about me. Ambrose's father was out of town for work and Ambrose's mother have to take care of everything now.
"Feeling much better, are you still writing short stories?" I asked, her face lighted up. I love her writing style, her stories are really unique and beautiful.
"Yes, I am working on a new one" said mrs. Woodson with a wink.
"Mom, can I talk to Celia now? Please go" said Ambrose. His mom was going to say something but then Ambrose get up and move her out of the room and then shut the door.
"Hey, you didn't have to do that" I said. That was a bit harsh, she could have stayed. I like his mom, she is very jolly and funny, kinda like my mom. God, I miss her sometimes.
"You can talk to her later but for now listen to me" he said. He settle down on the couch in front of me. I was covering myself with a blanket as I was feeling cold. His room was filled with soccer posters, trophies and video games. He loves soccer and he is really good at it.
"I am sorry for acting like an idiot today" he said looking into my eyes. I can tell he was very very sorry by looking at his face. He must have felt bad for pushing me like that. I know he was angry at that time, he loves Kim still now and will do anything for her. Afterall they were the power couple in our school.
"It's ok, but you have to promise me that you will never doubt me about anything ever again" I said, he laughed. I hate when people I am close to, loose faith in me.
"What's Kim's condition? Is she talking to you?" I asked. Ambrose face turn from happy to sad real quick. That means it's bad.
"No she is not talking to anyone except her mom, I saw her crying all day. She will have to do plastic surgery" he said. I was feeling bad for Kim. She was too proud of her beauty, she can't accept the reality. I cannot even imagine her face after it was burned, it was horrifying.
"It's sad, hey we should arrange a party for her recovery. What you say?" I said with a bright smile. I know she hates me but I don't like the silent Kim, I want that bitch back. Whatever she did to me doesn't mean I have to give it back to her, I have to find out the mistake and try to be a better version of it. I forgive her, afterall she got her punishment.
"That's a great idea biscuit, I love it. After she will be discharged we can throw her a party" he said happily. She will be happy I guess. She is a party lover. Maybe it will help her to cheer up.
"By the way we have our final soccer match tomorrow, you are coming right?" He said. I nod my head, obviously I am going. The school authorities would have cancelled the match after what happened to Kim but they couldn't because it was the final match. I can tell, Ambrose was really nervous about the game. I know they will win, they have practiced for longer time. I was hesitating but I wanted to share with him about the Celtic Hunter mark. I have to know all the information, maybe I am finally able to connect the dots. I don't have a picture of it but I think I can draw it.
"Can you give me a paper and a pen?" I asked. He looked confused but then he get up and brought me a paper and a pen. I took it and quickly draw whatever I remembered. Ambrose was trying to see what the hell I was doing. After drawing, I turn the page towards him.
"Have you seen this before? Or do you know anything about it?" I asked. He raised both of his eyebrows. I hope he doesn't ask me where did I found it.
"Yes, actually I have seen it somewhere, it's looking very familiar" he said by running a hand through his messy hair. Where did he possibly seen it? I need to know.
"Oh yeah I remembered, it was in a book. I don't remember the name of it but all I can tell that I used to have it but then we moved houses so we left many things there, at our old house" he said. Great, it is not helping at all. I thought he will tell me something important.
"But I remember, it was something about supernatural hunter family. Some people believe they are extinct or they can be just mythology, it was really weird" he said. Yeah it is weird. Supernatural hunter family? That's bullshit, can't they find any other jobs? If they are extinct, then thats worst because I think we might have a werewolf problem here. If Theodore Wilder is a werewolf then somebody needs to stop him, before he kills more people. I am sure he killed Natalie, he is a murderer.
"Where did you get that from?" He asked. I cannot tell him anything, it's better if he doesn't know the truth and moreover he will definitely not believe me. I have to lie again, I hate it.
"It's my History project, I need to gather as much information as possible" I said with an awkward smile.
"Oh, our history teacher is crazy, he can give anything" he said. We laughed. It feels amazing, It feel like I am back to being a kid. Suddenly the door opened and I saw Mrs. Woodson with a tray full of choco chip cookies. She enter the room and put the tray in front of me. I absolutely love her cookies and cakes, she bakes them perfectly.
"This is for you, I know how much you love them" she said with a smile. I said 'thank you' and took a bite out of a cookie. Like I thought, it was perfect. It was really delicious and tasty. Mrs. Woodson settle down and we started chit chatting. For that moment of time, I completely forget about everything around me.
