After Jarred made sure I was okay enough to be left alone I made my way back to my room.
"You haven't told her what happened when you brought her up here?"
I heard Alexander's voice come from the door and I opened it walking in looking at Alexander pacing in front of the bed as Rickey sat on the loveseat with his face in his hands.
"Why what happened?" I asked shutting the door.
They were both quiet for a moment and Rickey uncovered his face glaring at Alexander.
"Can you at least come sit with me please?" Rickey looked at me with those same sad eyes from earlier.
I nodded sitting beside him and he took my hand in his and looked at me.
"I know you told me to stay hidden- I was, even though you know it's against my nature, but then something felt wrong- I could feel your anger and your sadness like a sudden tidal wave, then it suddenly all stopped. . ." he sucked in a breath.
I gently squeezed his hand trying to comfort him. I could feel the same thing he was explaining- except now it was his sheer anxiety.
"Then I smelled the smoke, and I fucking ran- I didn't know if it was something with Jason or you truth be told I didn't care either way I just had to help, then I saw you, Alexander handed you over I took you upstairs and I suddenly had a horrible pain in my chest and I couldn't breathe and I just dropped."
"After we put out- well Kaiden put out the fire, we went to look for Jason; however instead we found Zadicus first out cold. . . Lukas quickly took him down well you know that. I found Jason, went to bring him up to the room too and I found Rickey writhing in pain" Alexander cut in as he stopped pacing finally.
"You and I both were, I guess the blood blond did make me take some of your pain and damage- I was able to push through it quicker for whatever reason, it was over in just a couple days and I just watched you after that." Rickey continued.
"I thought about that night when I saw you die, and I- I kept waiting for Jason to do the same. . . he started to decay and I screamed at them to bring me a case or something and then to leave us all alone" he sighed.
"Then he turned into what you saw downstairs. . . I had to have him removed."
He swallowed and he locked eyes with me.
Can you please ask Alexander to leave?
