I wake up, feeling dizzy and more tired than ever, wait why am I so exhausted I just woke up? I look over to see Mr.Edwards sitting on the side of my bed.

" Sorry to do this love but it's for your safety. "

He tells me and I follow his gaze to my arm, it has an IV in it and some sort of clear liquid is flowing through the tube of the IV. That must be what's making me feel like this, how did he even get this stuff?

" I had to make a visit to a friend of mine and steal his card to get in to the hospital rooms but it was worth it to save you, you're the last one I want to hurt. "

He says caressing my face as I feel myself slip back off to sleep.

I don't know how long I was sleeping but it's night time now, I can hear the crickets chirping outside.

" I have good news! "

Mr.Edwards exclaims, turning the light on and nearly blinding me. My eyes adjust and my mouth falls open as I see him covered in blood.

" I had been spying on your mom, making sure she didn't do anything to make anyone want to take you away from me you know. "

I look at him horrified, he's been spying on my mom?

" Don't worry I wasn't spying on her for pleasure or anything love, you're my only pleasure. "

He winks.

" Anyway, she was about to file a missing person report but I stopped her. She was the last one in our way, now we definitely will be togeather forever love. "

He tells me smiling and my eyes go wide as I comprehend what he's saying and who's blood he's covered in.

No, no she can't be dead, she can't be! I never even got to say goodbye, she can't die, it's not fair! She wasn't always there but she was my mom and I loved her and now she's gone! No she can't be gone, she just can't!

I break down into sobs, fighting my sleepy state. Mr.Edwards comforts me but I ignore him.

Please don't be gone mom! Please done leave me here alone! I love you, I'm sorry! Please don't go! I love you!
