Chapter Seventeen
Evan
"I think we need some sleep." I whispered to Jon as I pulled my lips from his. "Why don't we sleep out here?"
"Jon as much as I loved to, the fucking bugs man." For the first time in forever, he laughed. I really missed the noise, so did the baby. I sat up when the little movement started. Jon grabbed onto me, I turned around and met his gaze, "Everything alright?" I nodded, "Yeah it's just moving." He smiled and put his arms around my tummy. "Ya know." He mumbled. "What?" I looked at him. "I kinda hope it's a little girl." My heart nearly beat out of my chest from his words. "Evan... are you crying?"
"No, I think a gnat flew into my eye."
"You're a liar."
"I know. I just..." I looked into Jon's bright blue eyes, and at his dark red tattoo. He smirked, "You what?"
"I love you." My voice cracked and I started full out balling. "Evan-"
"I'm just so afraid, you know? Just to fucking die doing something a human woman should do, not a fucking vampyre man."
"Evan-"
"I just don't want you do go all depressing on me, and do something stupid like give the baby away or-"
"EVAN!" I looked at him, his eyes were watery but he was smiling. "One, I'm sure as hell not giving up on the baby, and you won't make it through if you keep thinking like that." He sounded like a good mother telling her kid never to give up on a dream, and I'm glad he has that figure. "And Evan?"
"Yeah?" I sobbed.
"I love you too."
Marcel
"Holy Nyx, I didn't know we had a private jet." I looked at the jet black figure in awe. "Well we don't, but the school does." Tyler explained. I wriggled my eyebrows at Agnetha, she giggled and I loved the noise. For some reason, just after killing Luke, it brought us closer and I just can't seem to tell her those three words, I always tumble.
"Okay, before taking a little flight, I need to tell you guys something." Tyler walked in front of all of us. Luce, Brock, Brian, David, Lui, Nephthys, Agnetha, me and a hooded figure at the end. "Now, you all know about Craig, right?" We all let out some kind of sad noise and Tyler continued. "Well, he's back, but in a different form." We all gasped as the hooded figure walked from beside Nephthys, to beside Tyler. "Craig, take it off." He whispered. The hooded figure hesitated and put the hood down first. He looked a lot more built than our last Craig, but that didn't change the fact he was ours'. He had all the same facial gestures our old Craig had. Then he unzipped the hoodie, and all hell broke loose. He had little feathered wings pop out from behind him, and really hairy arms and legs, almost looking like a raven. "Oh my goddess!" Nephthys gasped and ran over to him. "Child, what was the first thing you remembered when you were reborn?"
"My name."
"Was your name Craig?"
"Yes Priestess, and I was supposed to be apart of Nelson's plan to kill Evan and Jon and then take their child. I was also surprised I wasn't like, evil."
"How do we know he's not?" Brian asked. All of us looked at him, Tyler, gave him a death glare. Nephthys looked over at Tyler. "Are you two still Imprinted from before?" Tyler's face turned red and he nodded. "Yes, and when Brock and I told him about some great times we've had, he remembered, but when we mentioned Evan-"
"He flipped out." Brock finished. Nephthys took on good look at him, and then did something a little weird. She took off the glasses hanging on her little chain, and put them on Craig. She smiled when she looked at him. We all took a long look, and I knew, Craig was back.
Jenny
"Jon, I don't know if this'll be a good wedding, I'm a terrible sister."
"Jenny, it's fine, as long as it's amazing for Evan. I just want him to be happily married before he goes..." I looked over at the sad Jon, he took another sip from his coffee. "Where is Evan?"
"He's sleeping."
"Still?"
"Well, he's very weak Jen-"
"I know, I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault."
"But I feel like I could do something for you two, that would help him and the baby!"
"Jenny, you're planning our wedding and it's in two weeks! And so far, it sounds amazing, even though you're surprising all the decorations and supplies." I laughed at Jon.
"Hey, I want it to be magical, so a surprise will work." Jon laughed again. "Ah, I love ya big sis."
"I love ya too, lil bro."
"Welp, Imma go sleep with the man. Get all snuggled up and comfy." He did a little dance when he said comfy, I laughed as he walked back down the hallway and into his room. I sighed and continued looking for a Officiant who wan't such a dick about what sex were getting married. As I was searching, my phone went off. I instantly answered it when I saw the caller ID, Elle.
"Yo what's up?" I answered.
"Ey, can you make sure Evan's got enough blood to drink, in the ultra sound the baby seems kinda thirsty."
"Okie dokie."
"Okay, well see ya lat-"
"Hold on Elle. Something's been bothering me."
"Yes darling?" My heartbeat picked up.
"Uh, remember our senior prom?" I heard her chuckle over the phone.
"Yes."
"Do you remember what happened after Jeff ditched me?" Elle was silent on the phone for a bit. "Uh... can we meet up somewhere and talk?"
"Yeah, but I'll have to tell Jon and-"
"It's okay, just hurry up." A little nervousness went through my body, why the hell would I bring the prom up? Is this a warning or something? Is Nyx stirring a shit pot? Or a miracle pot?
Jonathan
"I'm gonna go out a bit, can you take care of Sam if she wakes?" I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and looked at Jenny. "Yeah, sure thing." She left and shut the door. I threw the rest of the blankets over Evan and unwrapped his arms. I stood up and stretched, every bone in my body cracking. "Well that was a short ass nap." I mumbled as I threw different clothes on. I walked out of the room and down to the kitchen to get some more coffee. I got out the same mug I used and rinsed it out, filling it up with coffee and some regular creamer. I walked outside on the back porch and looked at the sun. Yes, it still bothered me, but it wasn't like I was crackling like bacon, that was only a red fledgling thing. When I changed, I grew much stronger. I sighed and sipped the coffee. I enjoyed the view until I heard a few knocks, I pushed open the screen door and walked to the front door. I rolled my eyes and sighed as I slowly opened the door. I spit out the coffee in my mouth and nearly fainted. "What the fuck are you guys doing here?"
"We're here for the wedding."
"But it's not until two weeks from now!" Tyler stepped away from the steps and Brock stepped up. "Jon, we came down here to protect you, Evan and mostly the baby." I gave Brock a weird look. "Why mostly the baby?" Then a weird creature popped up on the porch. I jumped back, "Wha-what is that?" Tyler let out a sigh, "That's Craig, in a different form- Ya know what fuck it, we'll tell you later." Tyler scoffed and stepped down as "Craig" stepped up. "Jon, I was dead, and Nyx gave me a choice to come back as Nelson's next plan." My head exploded when I heard his name. "Wait, Nelson?!" Craig nodded, "Yes, he sucked some power out of Lui, the first in Evan's circle, Air. Anyway, his plan... I would not and could not do, so I didn't, but that doesn't mean he won't."
"What was his plan Craig?" I asked, gripping onto my mug.
"To steal your child."
