My Name's Elisabeth Rose well Liz or lizzy for short, This here is not just a sad sob story but hurtful and maybe hopeful depends on how people take it guess I'll let you be the judge of it!
After leaving Doctor Dolstrom's Office still in a dace trying to process the news...
How?... And Why?
I've still got plenty of things I wanted to do, Things that I want to learn To experience but now I've got to try and hold it together and not brake down, Not here at least I need to get back to my apartment there I can let it all out.
Getting the thought through my head that my days are numbered and as far as I'm concerned I've done nothing with my life I started college this year I work as a waitress at a restaurant/bar, I always wanted to go to Italy and visit Rome or France but being alone in this world it's hard my parents died when I was young at different times. I lived with my grandmother on my dad's side, Never really new anyone from my mother's side of the family and that's ok I guess. One can ever miss what we never knew. My grandmother passed away last year peacefully thank goodness. Around the same time I discovered that my body is slowly dieing. I've got about a handful of friends that might miss me once I've gone but I'm not sure how they would take it, that's why for the past year I've kept it to my self not letting anyone know my secret.
Then some days later when on my way home from work not even that dark yet some girl was being chased by some guys don't know what came over me I slowed my car did a U turn drove to the park she headed to called her in, she hesitated for a second but got in and we drove as fast as possible as I looked back with shock in my face I saw the two guys chasing her as they transformed into dogs huge dogs... nope not dogs wolfs yeah they just turned into wolfs big ass wolfs. We make it to the city square and try to go through the people still bustling around thank goodness we lost them or they gave up the chase.
I turn my head still not knowing what to do with what just happened right in front of my eyes well rear view mirror.
"Emma."
I hear the girl say!
"I'm sorry about what happened but thank you so much for your help I'd be in deep shit if it wasn't for you Thank you!"
Elisabeth. I introduce my self as well then she proceeds to try and explain but I'm not sure I can quite catch the words she's saying.
A few minutes later after calming down we make our way to a restaurant she insist on us having dinner there so I agreed, not sure why? but we ended up talking for hours. Becoming good friends after that every other day we would see each other she's the one that convinced me to re enroll in college a few months after that she found out about me being sick and she hasn't left my side ever since.
Now that I know she's a werewolf and she knows I'm sick one would think there was not much else to tell but... Now I get to tell her I've got less time than we expected I hope she takes it well, The medications aren't helping as much but I just deal with the pain.
My phone rings bright and early as I reach over to answer I see it's 8:00 a.m. "Damn it" not as early as I thought. Before I can even answer it the phone goes dead and all of a sudden I hear knocking at my door I rush over to open and see Emma and Kevin standing there. Kevin is a werewolf as well but apparently from a different pack he works at a coffee shop across from the restaurant I work at we've been friend for about three years now and had Emma not mentioned to me that he's a wolf I would have never known. (I'm such a wonderful friend right?... I know!)
Kevin admitted that he indeed was a werewolf expecting me to freak out but I didn't, The three of us became inseparable he also knows I'm sick but not to what extent yet.
Today thankfully we have no class I don't work today and Kevin swapped shifts with a another worker so we could spend the day together.
We need to get going we still need to make a stop at the market grab some essentials and head to the beach house. We've been planning this trip for weeks now, Ready for a weekend of worry free fun we'll be staying at my grandmother's house I haven't really been here apart from a simple visit here and there since grandma passed.
Today we are going to have the time of our lives and on that note...
...
We head to the small pier out back by the private beach sector of the house. We spent the day swimming stopping only to make lunch and rest after hours spent in the water had passed. Today was so awesome wish it would last for ever but good things must end, As night falls we sit inside watching old-school movies, I've decided to let them in on a couple of secrets well a dark and disturbing secret I'm not sure how they will take it but it's got to be said.
"Kevin, Emma can we have a word before bed there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about."
I see them both turn to face me and I feel what ever courage I've mustered up begin to falter.
"I... I Spoke to Doctor Dalstrom two days ago, I had another round of check ups and well thing... things are not getting better... and I... I don't have much..."
Emma cuts me of as she gets up and start heading for the door I can hear her cry as she shifts in to her wolf and runs out but I can't stop her Kevin instantly wraps me up in his arms as I cry into his chest I hear him sob as he rocks me close to him. I explain to him after calming down a little bit more.
"The medication is getting stronger and working less it mildly numbs the pain any more this will be my last week at work I've given notice and I've filled out the proper paperwork at school to withdrawal I can't keep on going like nothing is wrong any more I'm sorry I tried I really did but I just can't any more."
He says it's ok and that No matter what he will always be by my side and that Em will come around sooner or later she just needs to calm down a little bit.
But Will She? I don't think I can Handle all this with out her and Kevin by me they are the only family I have left with out them i'm all alone.
