Mine

Rude much?

There were noises, screams and growls in the darkness. Everything went quiet for a moment and then I heard more noises. I could hear people talking, unlike the other noises they sounded more realistic, the other ones had sounded as if they were in a background of a distant past.

"Don't you think she has a right to know?" asked a woman's voice very frustrated. "No, it will be  better this way." I heard a rough worried voice answer and I felt fingers caress my cheek. I felt tingles go from my cheek to my shoulders and throughout my whole body but I couldn't move as much as I felt the need to. I felt the hand move away and I immediately felt cold. "She's too weak anyways." He added almost angry. "She's going to find out sooner or later." The woman insisted. 

Wait, I know that voice, it's Aunt Linda. Although the man's voice I couldn't recognize it sounded very familiar. The man continued talking "Well by the time that moment comes I will have found a strong mate." Mate, that's the second time I've heard that word since I've been here.My heart dropped for some reason.

"Shh she's coming to her senses." I heard Aunt Linda say to the man. I opened my eyes slowly, everything was blurry but after blinking for some time I could finally see my surroundings. I was in a bright green room, there was a cabinet on one wall filled with band aids, shots and other medical stuff. There was also a window in the far left and the curtains were pulled up showing me that it was night already, 

I was laying on an uncomfortable bed, it was hard like the one's in hospitals and the pillows were scratchy. Finally my eyes landed on Aunt Linda who was sitting in a chair besides me, her hair was a mess and her she had a worried look on her face. 

"Hey honey, how do you feel?" She asked looking at my leg. I looked down too and gasped once I saw that my right leg was wrapped  in a long blue cast. "I'm fine." I answered my voice groggy. "What happened?" She asked motioning to my casted leg.

I couldn't tell her the truth, she would think I was a total nut case. I feigned to try and remember " I don't know I mean one moment I was in the woods and the next i'm here. I probably fell or something." As I said that my eyes met a pair of hazel ones, Toby's. 

There he was, standing by one of the bright walls watching me with narrowed eyes. Aunt Linda noticed me looking at him "He brought you here honey," she explained. I turned back to her "Yeah I remember, I saw him in the woods. Aunt Linda's eyes grew a tinsy bit bigger "You did?" She asked.

"Yeah but it was before I passed out. It's all fuzzy though." I answered an she seemed to calm down. "Thanks." I said turning back to Toby. He looked at me for a moment "I've got to go." he announced heading for the door. Rude much? 

He stopped once he reached the door, he glanced at Aunt Linda who was shaking her head at him then he glanced over at me. "Stay away from the forest" He snarled with a hint of warning in his tone. What was up with this guy? Talk about mood swings.

I shook my head, I had promised myself I wasn't going to think about him and a cast wasn't going to keep me from seeing that promise through. 

"Where are we?" I asked Aunt Linda, I hadn't seen any hospitals around here. "We're at Sophia's house, she's one of the best medics around here." Sophia was a friend of Aunt Linda's, she was in her mid 40's although she did not look the part with her long blond hair and slim body. It seemed like everyone around here was good looking. 

I nodded in agreement, I couldn't feel any pain at all, whatever Sophia had done had worked wonders.

After hours of walking to convince Aunt Linda and Sophia that I was alright they finally let me go. "Let's go kid." Aunt Linda said, handing me the crutches. I cringed as I got up, then looked to see if Aunt Linda had been watching. She wasn't,phew. Truth is, my leg hurt like hell now since the medicine had worn off. Of course I wasn't going to let Aunt Linda know about this.We left after saying goodbye to Sophia and the other nurses.
