Now we will be following Cole as well as Rose.
.___.

Cole.

"What's taking them so long?" Sneered Jack.

"I don't know okay!" I was pacing to floors.

Rose?

But no answer, occasionally the telepathic connection doesn't work as well when I contact her first.

"Stop pacing!" Snapped Slade. Both Jack and I stopped. "Sit!" We obeyed.

"Fools, idiots," He grumbled names. "Get outta here."

"Sir." We replied and left the room. But as soon as we were far from earshot, I was slammed against a wall. Arm pressing against my neck, not hard enough to choke me.

"These kids better get here soon, Bother Bear." He sneered the teasing names, like a hiss. I pushed him off me.

"Back off Jack." I barked. "They'll be here."

"Sure, sure," He paused, "but if they don't." He made a cheesy signal, he slit his throat with his finger. He stalked off afterwards.

Hey, Cole?

Are you one your way?

No, we're stopping for the night. But we'll be ready in the morning.

Okay, hurry though. Can't wait to see you again.

Okay. Can't wait myself, see you then.

Then the conversation was over. I punched the nearby wall and grunted.

"Dang it." I grunted and jogged my way to my room. I paced the floors, but after my feet and legs got tired I flopped on the floor. I stared up the ceiling, my breath came in light puffs.

My eyes glanced to the clock. I didn't realize that I had been laying on the floor for over an hour.

"Must have passed out." I mumbled. The clock read that it was well into the night. But I could do anything but sleep.

Her face. Her hair. The way she smelled, the sweet lilac sent. It all wouldn't leave. The memories of how she brushed her hair from her face, or when she won the track meets. Or even when she cried. All the thoughts, memories, were keeping me up. No matter what I did he wouldn't give her back to me. No matter what I did for him or his stupid son, no matter what she was still gone.

I subconsciously wiped a trail of salt and water from my eye. I found myself to be crying a lot more lately. Then and there, I made myself a promise:

No matter what. I'll get them all back in my life. And the others will be removed from the picture. At any cost.

.____.

Soooorrry. It's been forever.

But, I have been reading this rad book called, "Gone" and it's freaking amazing. I never thought about reading it until I found it at the library. So I have been reading/doing this week. I have also started a sport and practice is until like five, so I'll update as much as I can while that is going on.
