Mount Olympus [9]

Niki

I hesitate, "She needs to get up, and start walking around like she normally would.
Get her back on routine. Resting apparently isn't helping at all."

Elijah

Jag looks at her, hesitating before shaking his head, "She's weak. It'll hurt her more."

Niki

"She needs to get up an active," I tell him, "Or else she's just gonna sit here and rot for the next week. Trust me, I'd know what's best. I've lived with both vampires and werewolves in my lifetime. This happens all the time."

Elijah

Jag looks back at Emma again, taking her hand, but says nothing more, holding a conversation with her mentally.

Niki

Her eyes turn red and she sits up, staring out into space before looking up at me, standing. Something about her... sh*t! She's hillucinating.

I swallow and crouch infront of her, "Emma...what do you see?"

"A pretty blueberry tree and a dragon that's dressed in a ball gown," she answers, reaching out for something in the air that isn't there.

Elijah

I stay where I am, watching Jag take Emma's hands and try to get her to see him instead.

Niki

I stand and Emma glances at Jag before swallowing, "I...I don't feel good. I...I need blood," She shivers, plopping back in bed, "Make it stop."

The only way to end the pain is...

I glance at Jag, asking him mentally if he wants to stop her pain, or let her go through it.

Elijah

Jag studies Niki for a moment before looking back at Emma and setting a hand on the side of her face, "Can't you fight it? For me, Em. Please. I don't want to be without you."

Emma

She swallows, shivering again, "I-I don't know."

Elijah

Jag swallows and rests his forehead against hers, "I can't lose you."

Niki

I slowly exit, Emma falling asleep, and bring Elijah with me.

Elijah

I follow Niki, the sight of Jag and Emma like that even hurting me.

Niki

I take a deep breath, Bethany leaning against the wall across from us, "You guys are gross. You should really stop making those sounds while you do it or moms gonna get suspicious."

I burn red, glancing at Elijah while chuckling.

Elijah

I suppress my embarrassment and glare at Bethany instead, "At least we were able to do it. You and your mate were caught in the middle of the act, which lead to your near death."

Niki

She shrugs, sighing, "It's training day. Come downstairs. Mom and dad are teaching us."
