Awake
“Let’s eat.” Eamon announced. He noticed he was angry, his mood has changed. He had to bring up food to sheer his thoughts away from whatever got him so angry.
“Are you gonna eat without me, I'm starving!” she whines by the door.
“Maeve!”
“Angel!”
Green looked at him.
“Angel? Huh?”
“I mean Maever.”
Green shook his head.
“Eve!” she chuckled at him. And he smiles at her admiring her beauty. She was so beautiful, how can someone like her be human. Last night she wasn't as glowing as this, her smiles got him off-guard.
No wonder was absolutely trapped in her love.
Who won't love someone like her? Expect him cause he's gay.
“Ignore him.” he pulled her into a hug.
“You woke up, don't ever do this again.” he warned.
“I promise. Where is Dixon?”
“He left a while ago. To the hospital. His father is in there badly sick.”
“Oh!”
“Come seat. I'll serve you breakfast.”
“I want meat. The crave is driving me crazy, cow meat. Fresh one.”
“Eamon, you've got to buy what the lady wants.”
“You’re Eamon?”
“Yes my lady.”
“When did you get out?”
“Yesterday.”
For someone who was dying last night to someone energetic now, something is fishy he could tell.
She's not a human.
Hours later
Maeve cried on Dr. Green shoulders. Wetting his sweater with blood. He pat her back tenderly.
She had eaten, after Eamon bought the beef. She was burning with the urge not to grab them from his hands and eat them raw. But Dixon warned not to do it anymore it would make people suspicious of her. And could get him In trouble and she doesn't want Dixon to get into trouble because of her. So she waited till he cooked it.
She went back to her room after to with Dr. Green beside her. They sat on the bed. Several emotions she couldn't decipher run through her.
"I don't want to leave him"
"It's okay you can't change it"
"But I wasn't born like this. Those inhuman made me like this I want to be human green I don't wanna die"
She cried harder.
He pat her.
Consoling her in the way he can.
"You have to tell him everything. You need to let him know "
"I can't "
She whimpered.
Holding him tightly.
"I can't bring myself to tell him, I just can't do it"
"It's okay you're gonna get through this. I would have done it but it would be better if you tell him everything yourself "
Sniffing she pulled away from him, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand.
"Am gonna do it"
"I don't have much time left anyway "
"I'll be here if you need help"
She sniffed again.
"I got this "
"I'll set up a date for us. I'll let him know. I'll tell him everything."
Dr. Green nodded.
"He will be home soon. Put a smile on your face okay "
"I'll do that "
"We got this "
She nodded forcing a smile on her face. But it only end up looking like a grimace.
“There’s a way for you to be human again.”
“There is?”
Her eyes lit up.
“A sacrifice of love one. Someone who loves you more than anything has to die for you to be human.”
“Someone who loves me?”
“Yeah.”
“Dixon.” they both knew the answer to her.
“No, I can't let him kill himself for me, never let him do that. I would die if I had to. I'll disappear from his life. I won't let him end his life because of me.”
He wipe the blood off her face.
“Don’t tell him. Don't let him know of the sacrifice of death.”
“But..”
“We never talked about this.”
"Come freshen up.."
He pulled her off her feet.
He pushed the door open and got in. Shutting it behind him. He was tired, his eyes were spinning in front of him, he would have eaten when he had gotten the chance to. Albert was sleeping all through his visit and Linda was asleep before he left all she did was cry and cry. Turning towards the room his eyes gleamed. The bags falling from his hands. He had bought some clothes and shoes for her and there she was. Staring at him with a smile.
She was awake!
She here smiling at him with a bowl of cereal not like she was eating them.
"Maeve!"
He ran to her, lifting her up her feet. And spin her around.
She giggled.
Holding him tightly.
"You woke up"
She nodded her head at him.
He place her feet on the ground.
Then quickly embraced his lips on hers.
"Hum--"
Dr. Green coughed and looked away from them.
"I think I should better leave you guys alone "
“There’s no need for that.”
Maeve said pulling away from Dixon. Who never wanted to.
"I don't think he wants that.."
He gestured towards Dixon.
Maeve laughed and tugged his arm playfully. Dixon smile pulling her into his arms again.
"I missed you so much "
He kissed her again.
****
They sat down discussing about everything they could think of and none of them wanted to leave. The diner.
"So What was your father like."
"Are you sure you want to talk about it?" Green asked
"Sure."
He nodded.
"My father was very strict with us while growing up and already had our future planned out. He was this mighty and strong man that everyone fears..."
"He wanted me and Bruce to go into his business with him. I didn't want to and am sure Bruce wasn't interested in it either.
He didn't like that we weren't going his way.
He changed after that"
"And now the almighty Albert Ambrose is dying "
He looked away.
"Dying "
Maeve coughed at that. Suddenly feeling guilty. He was dying, just the same way she was dying. They are both gonna leave him.
"He was poisoned "
She turned him to face her.
And cupped his cheeks.
"Let's go on a date tomorrow "
"I've something to tell you.”
"All I want is for you to be beside me. Don't ever do this to me again. Don't you dare leave my sight.”
She nodded
“Where is Eamon?”
“Sleeping.”
"It's just 5days left"
Dr. Green said softly. Bring his head down to his feet.
