Gyles

"Do you think this is a good idea?’’ Blue asks us pacing back and forth in the room. Jules’s friend is supposed to come to the community in two days. I don’t know if I can wait that long and it seems like there is a little communication with the book. I just have to see what she wants to show me and then we could go from there.

"I don’t know but it seems like the only option that we have,’’ I mutter quietly.

at this point, I am already too deep in this. I have basically accepted her and told her that I am going to help her--I can’t go back on that now, especially since I don’t have a choice.

"My dad is going to figure it out. He knows people that can help,’’ Blue manages. Rex is seated on the bed, watching intently, quietly. He has helped me a lot and I know that I have his blessing to do this tonight. I need to know what happened to her and if I can actually help her through this mess.

"But I talked to her, she came to me and it doesn’t seem like she is evil, she looked lost and maybe I am the only one that can help her,’’ I tell him honestly because I am at this place where I am swaying. I am still very much afraid of everything that is going on but I also feel like I can’t run away from this.

He scoffs "Do you hear yourself, Gyles? You are playing with the book of evil. I sent the book back but somehow, it keeps appearing to you. Do you think there is anything good about this situation?’’ he asks me in disbelief.

I shrug, hugging the pillow in my arms tighter.

"I don’t know but I can’t just ignore her. She said she was going to show me what happened to her and the rest of them, once I find out, I will know what I can do next.’’

this is how I feel.

I can’t just cower in fear.

I need to find out what happened to her and why she is here.

She needs me, I can’t let her down.

He sighs.

"Are you sure about this Gyles?’’ he asks me again.

I nod, "Yes.’’

I hope that I am making the right decision and that I will not regret this.

outside, the wind blows up and I can hear the trees moving. I am scared but I have to do this. I can’t just run away from it; I need to know what is going on.

"Okay," he relents and I breathe out in relief. I am grateful that he is letting me do this. Rex and Blue have been so supportive and understanding. they are the ones that make me stronger through all this.

Blue walks over to me and I let go of the pillow and hold him tightly "I am so worried. I don’t want anything to happen to you.’’ he cries in my arms, rex crawls over to us from his side of the bed and I take him in my arms too. The two of them just make it all better. hugging Blue alone is comforting but hugging both of them at the same time is like a security blanket around me. I feel safer, stronger, and happier.

***********************

We are all in front of my room door. I haven’t even spent a month in this room, after the whole mess with Roger, Beau gave me a room in his house. A place that I could call home and it has felt like home through the short time I have stayed in this room. This community has given me everything that I have always wanted.

I have a family now and I don’t want my decisions to mess that all up. Right now, I am hesitant about the decision I made to see her tonight. I don’t know the repercussions of my actions but I want to find out the truth.

I want to get this over with.

"Are you coming inside with me?’’ I ask them both because for the first time since I go to the pack, I don’t want to be alone.

Blue shakes his head "I think you need to do this on your own. We will be right outside if you need us.’’ He assures me by grabbing my hand in his and giving it a squeeze.

I close my eyes and take a deep breath. Letting go of his hand, I replace the contact with the door handle. My hand lingers on it until I turn it slowly, and walk into the room. The lights are on from when I left it yesterday which makes it easier to close the door. I give them one last smile as I walk into the room and walk over to the bed.

She said she would come to me tonight--she said she would explain everything through the book.

All the answers that I need, I expect to get from her. I cross my legs and wait for her, counting the ticking of the clock on the wall. The window is closed but the curtains are open. I look out the sky and it is dark. I hate being alone in the dark. I hate that I can’t hold them right now.

I am nervous. My fingers are shaking slightly and I feel my heart beating in my chest. This is too much.

"What are you going to show me?" I ask her even though she hasn’t made herself known. the silence is eerie, making me feel like I am losing my mind.

"Hello?" I ask her aloud and panic starts to set in.

"Gyles?" I hear her. I am not even surprised.

My eyes snap in the direction of the voice. She is by the window, in the same clothes. in an instant, the book appears on the bed again.

I take a deep breath as I wait for her to tell me what is so important. Suddenly all the fear I had is gone and replaced with curiosity.
