Awake

The cold frosty air in the apartment woke Erik up with a nasty startle. He immediately realized that he was shivering and was mostly covered in snow. Even his eyelashes were sealed together with ice. Sighing he sat up in his bed and, after rubbing his eyes, saw that the nearest window had blown wide open and was letting in the heavy snow fall. He moaned and reached down onto the floor to grab his crutches and then hobbled over to the window to close it. Just then the clock rung eleven o'clock loud and clear, making Erik let out another exhausted sigh. He had to go back to the hospital today for a check up. He shook his head angrily. Damien had had the nerve to command Drake to cut that chandelier rope and crush him under it! The next time he saw that man he'd . . . well he wasn't sure what he'd do, but he was furious. He'd almost lost his legs! All just because he'd talked with Jade. Damien could not and would not control him.


Snatching his coat from off the hanger on the wall, he headed for the door. There was no need to change clothes because he'd simply slept in them. Why risk breaking his neck trying to change clothes with one leg. He closed the door behind himself and locked it, dreading the terrible trip down the steep stairs.
