Reopened Scars -chapter 13- someone is in trouble

Someone is in trouble

Timber wakes up and runs to the bathroom and begins throwing up. Mark and Will run in, they are today’s body guards, “Timber what’s wrong?”

“remind me not to eat trout again.”

They laugh as they walk back into the living room. She gets up and gets dressed then walks in to the kitchen.

“hey you guys feel like French toast, Belgium waffles, or bacon and eggs?”

“whatever you eat will be fine.” Will replies

“no this is for you boys, you need to be fed up more both of you are looking quite starved. I plan on eating just a bowl of cereal.”

“oh well then just bacon and eggs sounds good, don’t work yourself too hard.”

“oh and timber?”

“yes mark?”

“Victor stopped by, left this for you.”

Mark hands her 3 white roses.

“where would he find this during the middle of winter?”

“I don’t know but you’ve got to hand it to the boy he defiantly has a thing for you.”

“well thanks and you guy’s food should be done in no time.”

“Good morning Timber, Mark, Will. What’s for breakfast?”

“Drake, must food always be on your mind?”

“Jackal take it easy you know you are hungry too.”

“Boys settle down, Juliana how are you this morning?”

“Ah, Madame Selene, Drake, Fang, Jackal have you all decided to grace us with your presence this morning? Oh and Madame, I am fine this morning.”

“not from what I hear.”

“oh that well I had some bad trout last night.”

“humph.”

“well bacon and eggs should be done in a few more minutes.”

As she leaves she can feel the cold stare upon her like death’s cold blanket from Selene. Soon they all gather in the dining room around Timber’s large oak table. As Timber walks in with the plates everyone stands.

“will you please sit? It’s too early in the morning for things to be quite so formal, it is just breakfast for Moon’s sake anyway.”

They all sit back down quietly. Timber begins handing out the plates.

“Madame I know you’re not much on bacon so I made you eggs Benedict, toast, and grapefruit.”

“thank you Juliana.”

“Drake, Will, here you go, plenty of bacon. Grease and all.”

“Fang, Jackal here I got you two some steak I found in the freezer lean cut of course.”

“and Mark for you I have Double severing of bacon and scrambled eggs with raisin bread toast.”

“I thought we agreed on just eggs and bacon.”

“well I thought that sounded too plain and not everyone likes eggs and bacon. Well enough talking let’s eat.”

“Juliana is that all you are eating is just a bowl of cereal?”

“yes Madame, I’m not in much mood to be eating much.”

“hmm.”

They eat quietly Selene makes small glances at Timber while she is eating. Timber keeps setting down her spoon every now and then. She finally stands up.

“I’m not feeling so well. I’m going to go lie down. Please don’t let me stop you from eating.”

“well I’m done.” Selene says as she leaves glancing towards timber’s room letting out a small curse in an ancient language then leaving.

“wonder what that was about.” Will says

“I’m not sure. Timber just said that she wasn’t feeling good. And Selene was probably upset that all of timber’s training was pushed back now, so she most likely ran off to go take care of some business.” Mark says

“Most likely.” Fangs agrees but shoots a look at Jackal. He heard her curse too. Mark, Will, and Drake seemed not to notice.
