Alphas bite: part 2
"Thank god" he says relieved when he sees or hears my pulse
"what happened?!" Asks one of the boys from before after the door swings open
"I think I died" I say and he sighs a part of the sigh is disappointed the other part is relieved.
"Should I call Daniela?" The boy asks Caleb but he just shakes his head
"there's no need to alert her" Caleb says
"but she might be..." the boy starts but Caleb cuts him off
"she isn't" and the boy leaves
"how do you feel?" He asks worried
"like I died" I say sarcastically
"is this a joke to you?" He sounds a little bit angry
"everything is a joke to me" I say and look away from him
"well I'm serious. Are you okay?" He repeats
"yes I'm fine I'm just really tired so can I have some privacy" I say avoiding his eyes
"sorry you're not going to sleep or be left alone before we secure you won't die again" he says "Peat!" The boy appears in the door with the question 'what?' written all over his face
"we will need to keep a close eye on her so she doesn't die again. She will not be left alone, she will not leave this room or her bed unless you go with her making sure nothing happens and she is not allowed to fall asleep. Understood?" Caleb demands
"I can't even go to the toilet without an escort?" I ask doubting I'll ever get any privacy
"no" he answers and walks to the door
"where are you going?" I ask before I notice the desperation in my tone
"I'm getting something to eat because I'm starving. You want something?" He asks
"no, I'm good" But I'm not good right now I want a cheeseburger burger and some fries
"burger and fries it is" he says and winks me as he closes the door behind him.
I turn to my side to avoid socializing but 'Peat' doesn't take the hint and says "so you and Caleb huh?"
"No he and Daniela" I reply the obvious because she deserves him
"why does he protect you?" He asks like I should know why
"how should I know? I just died" I say and yawn
"yeah, so? I'm not going to be treating you any differently because you 'died'" he says irritated that I brought it up
"I'm not going to stop until you leave me alone and let me go to sleep" I say annoyed
"I can't do any of those things because then Caleb would literally murder me" he reply and sits down in the chair besides the bed I'm in
"that would still be better then having a babysitter" I mutter to myself
"for you maybe" he says and I remember he's a wolf and can hear everything I say
"at least let me talk to myself..." I shoot at him but soon realize how it sounds as the boy just laughs and my eyelids start getting heavier and heavier. In the end I fall asleep. And this time I don't die thankfully.
I woke up with the sun shining happily in my face but the pain hasn't gone away. I look to my left where Caleb is staring at the heart monitor, he looks like he hasn't slept in days and he jumps up every time he hears something that isn't the heart monitor or me breathing normally. So because I'm evil I cough just to see his reaction and he looks at me quickly and sighs with relief as I start laughing
"Don't do that" he says rubbing his face
"you look like you've been staring at that for days" I say and laugh so hard I fall off the bed. I don't really know what was so funny I'm just glad to be alive
"it sure feels like days" he says as he catches me before I hit the floor.
"You should get some sleep" I say as I stop laughing slowly and become more serious "have you eaten?"
"no I turned around when Peat called me telling me you had fallen asleep and he was also going to sleep" he says
"why do you care so much?" I ask because I don't want Daniela to have a broken heart but I also don't want her to be with someone who doesn't care for her like she cares for him.
"Because you're special and I didn't want to admit it until you died" he says and I know what he's gonna say next but I don't want him to say it
"I might not trust you but I care for you. Adam told me that I cared too much and it could become dangerous for me and the pack" he looks deep into my eyes and I don't like where he's going with this so I look away but he puts his hand on my cheek gently forcing me look back at him.
"Daniela..." I remind him and he looks away disappointed
"you're too good of a friend" he states
"she's my best friend" I know how much Daniela cares for him but I also know he doesn't share it with her, he looks at me with a look that tells me he's gonna end it and I know it's for the best but Daniela will be destroyed and end up like me when I ended it with Josh.
"Please don't" I ask him
"why?" He asks confused
"because then she'll end up like me" I don't want that to happen to her but I also don't want her to be with someone who doesn't love her...Ugh, why does this have to be so hard?!
"what's wrong with you?" He runs his hand trough his dark hair
"when I ended it with Josh I thought I'd be alone for the rest of my life because I dared to care for him" the truth is that a small part of me still cares for him and wants him back but I know I can't
"I've been lying to her for far too long and if I keep it up she'll find out the way you did" he says and I should understand because of how heartbroken I was but I don't or more I can't understand because my brain refuses to understand why he has to break it off with her.
"do you know how to brake up with her without shattering her heart into million pieces?" I ask and he looks troubled "don't text or call her. After the break up wait a week or two before being seen with someone else. Being friends with an ex that you really cared for is harder than the 'hey let's just be friends' it takes time to get back to saying hey in the hallways, even if you're in a pack..."
I lecture him for a while before he interrupts
"how do you feel?"
"What?" I ask confused
"the vampire venom should be gone and if there is any wolf venom left you'd be feeling like you're burning up in flames but also freezing at the same time" he says and looks worried
"I'm fine" I understand why he doesn't want to talk about Daniela with me but he could've just said so instead of making some shit up that doesn't make sense.
"Are you sure?" He sounds more serious now
"yes, one hundred percent" I say friendly because I want him to know that I don't want anything but just to be friends.
He rests his head on the bed and looks at me like a lost puppy as he says "do you care about Theo?"
"Not after knowing his life mission is to kill my best friend and her friends" I'm so confused because he keeps changing the subject "But that's just the way with everyone who seem cute, nice and innocent are but really they're demons from hell sent by Satan to destroy my happiness at least everyone I've met and I don't know what I did to Satan to make him hate me so much...wait it must've been that one fly I accidentally killed" I add sarcastically as he smiles but it's weak and tired so I decide to let him rest, a few minutes later he falls asleep his head still on the bed.
