Alex Returns Again as Mitch and Pat Make Amends…

Alex came out of the shower as she dried her hair… what were those flowers I never had an out of control trigger like that before as she grabbed a button up blouse and a pair of jeans as she grabbed her bag and said better not have another episode…

While grabbing her journal and pendant as she opened the door and left the hotel in the cool crisp night and began to walk back to the hospital as she got on the elevator and pressed the floor Patrick was on while the doors closed and slowly rise with dumb elevator music when the ding hit her attention…

ALEX you… you are ok… Rosa… Patrick said you went back to your hotel… we all here are so sorry as she hugged her new found friend we did not know about your allergy to flowers… only certain ones dear but thank you all for your kindness is Pat still up… he has not rested since he came back from the roof… that man is so stubborn… are most men Alex joked back… may I… sure if you two need anything just buzz…

Alex knocked on the door as Pat said to come in… I overheard that you are being stubborn you need your rest dear… there is my wolf girl…hush will you… why what’s the matter dear as Alex locked the door for a bit…

Listen, Patrick, you cannot tell a soul about me and my other side… Alex I won’t I promise I love you… then understand if the wrong people find out you and your aunt could be in danger as well as me…and… and who… my family… wait I thought you said your mother died… she did Patrick but Anne, Sasha, Nick, Luna and the rest you met and their parents and friends who are considered uncles or godparents… Relax Alex I am so sorry… not your fault and I was not wanting to tell you what I was not like this… don’t be shit happens…

Did you find out what set my transformation off… yeah, one of the nurses placed out Wolfsbane… just great… well, dear, you will not have to worry about it anymore… I told them no more flowers in the room… aww, thank you, dear… can I lay beside you… sure dear as Alex climbed in beside him… so your family… is a Pack love we have a hierarchy but we dedicate our lives to our queen… Luna…

Wait you mean… oh no not Jack’s wife and mate she is named after our queen out of respect… wait, mate… yeah, we wolves or skinwalkers we like to call ourselves give ourselves to one person and tie that bond until one of us dies before moving on but we carry our past loves with us never forgetting them or so I am told by my family…

When did you decide to become a whisper wolf… when I met Mary who was already a wolf before me… she and I met on a bus stop in Utah to Wyoming… Mary showed me what she was protecting me from a bunch of goons… she just thought of you being special…?

Patrick can I ask you your aunt… how long has she been sick… about three years back… what about your father… I don’t talk about him I hope he rots where ever he is imprisoned at… and your mother died didn’t she… yeah, yours… she died protecting her pack now my pack… Alex as he saw the tears in her eyes… I never got to say how much I loved her to her face everything I ever have known about her is from my pack and this pulling out her journal and unlocking it with her pendant…

Patrick spoke you think she wrote this for you… just in case you know… what… if she did not make it… I believe she did so Patrick… and you chose to… follow her footsteps… I think that is honorable of you…

And I think you are honorable of you taking care of your Aunt wanting to be a doctor… I don’t know how much longer she got left the medicine has been doubled and I am afraid I am going to lose her Alex…

Do not get me wrong dear and hear it from a different perspective what people think of death is and what it means yes, it is the end of physical attachment to this plane of existence but her spirit lives on forever as long you hold it here in your heart and your soul… you know I never thought of it that way…

Pat sighed heavily what do you see in me Alex you could have anyone you wanted in the world… Alex spoke I see a cute and charming and caring person no matter what you look like on the outside it is what on the inside that matters most to me… can I ask you a question… sure dear… were you always like this… no, I was not Pat I was a bookworm and chubby…well you made one hell of an improvement dear…

Easy there stud muffin… what dear… I could accidentally pass you my gift by trading too much of my fluids or by a bite and or scratch… and that would be a bad thing… what about your aunt how would you tell her… I never thought of that… I can wait for a mate… you can Patrick asked with a quizzed look… why Pat dear what are you asking of me… would you ever consider me as your mate… Alex plants a kiss onto his lips while pinning him to his hospital bed… who said I have not chosen you dear... but we have all the time in the world to do so as she got up and unlocked the door and said now dear mums the words on the supernatural stuff ok…

Ok, love as she laid beside him and snuggled up close and fell fast asleep in his arms…

Pat heard another knock… come in as he said oh what do you want… Hey, I came to see how you are doing Patrick… Well, Mitch, I am ok as you can see… Listen, Patrick, I know I been a real ass to you for the last four years… so what changed… been doing a lot of soul searching last few days… since you got your ass handed… yeah, that too… we were friends once I am hoping someday we could you know look back and laugh at it like old friends… can you tell me something who attacked me…

It was not me I was working my debt off to Pete… wow you are actually doing something positive… I know, I know but it was all to that beauty in your arms made me see the errors of my ways…

I have been hearing at the campus that Rico, Pauly, Frankie and two others been bragging about jumping you and Professor Lewis is working with security as we speak this deed will go unpunished… why now after all this time Mitch when you and I did not speak and you too bullied me some… I may have said things that hurt you with words and pushed you around but have I ever punched you to cause physical harm… well no you have not… see if I didn’t act the part those guys if I was on the team or not, they would not stop egging me Pat... you could have told them no…

Remember that first month of college when I sat bench… yeah, I remember because it was not just the teammates it is also the coaches… well, Mitch, I am glad you are coming clean about this now… hey, it is the least I can do when Mitch placed his hand out and spoke so what do you say put it there…

Mitch, please do not make me regret this as Alex snuggled beside him as Pat shook his hand and said I forgive you… hey after you get out maybe we could you know get together and hit up on the newest gaming platform… ok, then Mitch you got a deal… well I got to get up early in the morning so I will see you tomorrow Pat you take good care of her she is a keeper… Oh, I intend to when Patrick yawned as the medicine finally kicked in as he fell asleep by the love of his new found life…
