The Arsonist (Warren Peace)

Chapter Nineteen

^^^^Her Mother

Blake’s P.O.V.

It was like I was drowning. I tried to keep myself afloat but it seemed impossible. I was surrounded by black until there was a flash of light. It was so bright I had to turn and cover my eyes with my hand and I appeared in a field and saw my mom standing there, “mom?” tears filled my eyes as she stood in front of me, “hi baby.” she cupped my face and I leaned into it, “I know you wanna give up but you can’t that boy there needs you.” I shook my head, “I wanna stay with you.” I let the tears flow willingly, “I don’t wanna lose you again.” she nodded and she started to up, “I know baby I do but I can show you a glimpse of what happens if you stay and what happens if you decide to give up the fight after that it’s up to you what you want to do he’s your mate just remember that the connection hasn’t fully taken effect but it’s started to.”

I nodded and it was like I was sucked into a memory that I didn’t recognize I was standing at the altar in a flowing white gown and Warren was holding my hands in a black tux, then we flashed to me screaming in a hospital bed then it flashed to me holding a baby and tears flooded my eyes again and I covered my mouth then it showed us standing in front of a house. We returned to the field from before and she cupped my face, “that’s what would happen if you chose to stay with him here’s what happens if you leave him.” 

We flashed to a memory of Warren crying as he stared at a picture of me, then it flashed to him drinking before he threw the bottle at the wall making it shatter and I jumped at the sudden burst of anger. Finally it showed him standing at the edge of a cliff and he muttered to himself, “now I can be with her again.” before he let himself fall. We returned to the field and I shook my head, “I wanna stay. I don’t want him to go through that. How do I go back?” 

She stroked my cheek and smiled, “just fight don’t give up.” I nodded and grabbed her hand squeezing it gently as a single tear fell, “I don’t wanna lose you again mom I just got you back.” she nodded sadly smiling, “I know but just remember even when you’re going through hell keep going.” she kissed my forehead before dissipating leaving me standing in the field alone. I stared up at the sky, “I’m gonna make you so proud.” I laid on the ground just staring up at the sky wishing with all I could that I was able to go back.

The longer I laid in the field the more my body started to ache and I was filled with that pit of sadness and pain again and I knew I was slowly returning to my body. I fought to keep my eyes open because I knew if I closed them it would be the end and I couldn’t leave Warren even if he did hurt me he’s here now that’s all that matters. I fought with all my strength to try to wake up but all I kept seeing was the pale baby blue sky.

Warren P.O.V.

I stared at her bruised body intently as if she’d just wake up and act as if nothing but she never moved an inch. There was a gentle knock at the door and I got up opening the door half expecting it to be my mom but it was another older woman with a young child clinging to her, “hi I’m Mandy and this is Rose.” I nodded, “Warren.” I opened the door allowing them to slip in and then closed it behind them. They slowly approached the bed and I could see Rose start to cry as Mandy covered her mouth in shock, “what happened?” I shrugged, “I wasn’t given any details other than she was in a really bad car accident.” She nodded.

I sighed sitting back down in the uncomfortable chair, “so how long until she wakes up.” I gave her a grim look, “they said there is a small possibility but it isn’t looking good for her favor.” She gave me a sympathetic smile, “I’m sorry sweetie she obviously means a lot to you.” I nodded whispering, “the world.” Maybe it was my imagination but I could’ve sworn that I saw her fingers twitch. The machines started to go crazy and a bunch of doctors and nurses rushed in with a cart and two of them pushed me out while one of the others grabbed Mandy, “we need some space.” and then they quickly rushed back in.
