option.  I can’t wait to get out of this hospital and get all this shit under control. I will have my sister free. I will have my girl free.  We will be free, and then I just have to convince Lillian to keep me around if she hasn’t remembered yet. 

 
    CHAPTER SIX
     
    LILLIAN
     
    I am being woken by the bed shaking and my hand being squeezed tightly. At first I thought it was an earthquake and Wesson was trying to wake me up, but then I see he is asleep and having a nightmare.  I remember how he used to have those and worry that they are coming back.  I feel ridiculously upset that he is having a nightmare. Just because he takes mine away, doesn’t mean I should feel inadequate because I don’t take his away.  I am about to shake him awake when he starts mumbling so I get closer trying to hear what he is saying.
    “Mia, Mia I thought you were dead. Mia, where are you going?”
    My heart breaks for him in that moment. I know he must be taking this hard but he doesn’t show it, he never shows it.
    “Lillian! Lillian no! WHY IS SHE BLEEDING?!”
    I lean over and hold onto him as tight as I can, unable to fight the war of being the Lillian that doesn’t remember and being the Lillian that he needs. He reaches out and holds me back just as tight. I can feel the tears on my shoulders but know he is still asleep.  His shaking slows down and turns into a slight tremor before he drifts further to sleep. I am going to be way too selfish right now and not let go—I am going to hold onto him and I won’t let go until he wakes up.  He doesn’t need to know that I knew what I was doing when I started to hold him like this.
    I am awakened by the clearing of a throat in the room. I glance up and see Wesson looking at me, he doesn’t look like he was just sleeping so I know he has been up watching me like he used to.  I look over to see Park standing at the foot of the bed.
    “Please tell me you remember Lil?”
    Did I? no…
    I shake my head no and painfully pull myself away from him and sit further back into the bed, as far away as I could get.  Parker shakes his head and gives a small smile toward Wesson.  Wow, what a traitor! You would think he would be upset knowing that Wesson was all over me and he is basically a stranger to me.  I study Parker closer and he looks back at me, not at all ashamed for being on Wesson’s side.  I guess all and all I prefer them to be close but come on!
    Wesson doesn’t move from where he was on my bed.  In fact, I think he inches closer to me.  I shake my head and look over toward Parker. He obviously came in here for a reason.  Wesson beats me to it. “What’s up Park?”
    He glances at me then Wesson, clearly debating on whether or not I should be involved in this conversation. 
    “Don’t even think about it Park. I will get up out of this bed and follow you; I already told you that I will not be left out of this.”
    Wesson laughs, shaking his head next to me. I scowl at him, not liking that he is laughing at me. He stops immediately and almost reaches for my hand before realizing what he was doing.
    “Fine, we have secured a vehicle. We are supposed to be reassigned next Wednesday, so one week from now. That means we leave here no later than Tuesday evening. I would prefer to leave even earlier. I feel the longer we are here, the worse off we will be in the end, but I know it depends on how the healing goes.”
    “I am ready to go now.” I speak up.
    “No!” Both Parker and Wesson say at the same time.
    I look between both of them, I feel okay, beat up yes, but I can heal easily on the road.
    “Lillian love, you can’t leave just yet. They are still watching a few things and will need to be sure that everything is okay. We are going out to the woods and will be in there for awhile. We can’t risk you getting infected or something going wrong while out there. We will not be able to go get you medical attention.”
    Or, I could stay in the hospital a few
