chapter 87: wish you were here (tagx3)

Amsterdam? Was this boy serious? She simply handed Madison the phone so she could hear the message and she sighed. "If he's calling us that means he must be on the outs with Cami and Taylor and Daphne." She was not surprised about the first two but Daphne, for sure. "I don't know crap about Amsterdam," she said.

She was thinking. "Well they have a lot of museums I do remember that from school, so," she said as she thought. "Which would mean a lot of art, like a lot of art so are we going?" That was a long way but not really but really. "Who knew art and magic were so compllicated?"

EVERYONE. Everyone one knew. "If your nephew is doing the good white, tell him our bathroom is off limits please. He can take it to his mother's cavern or Taylor's spirit infested apartment, we have too many kids here at times."

The heart. What to say she did not know but she knew sooner or later she would hopefully be a perfusionist. It didn't make her a doctor which she did not want to be anyway but it did put her in the medical field and on a team things that despite all his bad Hunter had taught her were important though he seemed to like to call it family. "Okay," she said as she looked at all three of her children. None of her children had been concepted any normal way, her oldest from a butterfly crystal in her back, and her twins through some drunken mishandlement but she had got through that too.

She didn't hear his thoughts but choosing to keep her broken heart mixed with her pickup from Taylor the magic had her feeling his despair, his loss but that was his choice. She had finally listened to her voicemail and she could not do it. Every choice she had stood on and everything else said to just let him stay and die and let his family sort it out but then she looked at her three children and she knew better.

She no longer blamed Hunter for all of his badness because she too knew how well your parents reflected in you even if you did not like it so she sighed leaving her children with the baby sitter and making her way down to the pier.

She had kept her crystal because she felt if she gave it to Hunter he'd just do bad with it because he knew no better but if she kept it then she could use it for good. She no longer wanted to change Hunter, she simply wanted him out of danger so their children could have a father they could be proud of.

"I wish." She had experienced so much some good some bad. "I wish to start over," she said and she expected some grand magical happening but got nothing. "What?" she asked herself and then she realized, her magic did not work without Hunter which lead her only to realize one thing. "He's human?" she said and her heart felt it. "Great," she said as she got up and made her way down to Madison's apartment and knocked. "Hey, my crystal is broken."

Vacationing was one way of looking at it. "I guess it's not the worse but I guess we can do the right thing and get Hunter out first," and that was when she heard the knock and Daphne. "I swear it really is like magic," she said as she opened the door so Daphne could come in. "Let me reinforce this again," she said to Daphne.

"You can't allow yourself to be around someone like Hunter and then just not be around him. He's very clearly slightly obsessed with you because his mother did not give him enough love. I have never seen someone go to these lengths, the boy is clearly trying to win your love however he sees fit which is only stressing him out more and I doubt there is anything left of his relationship with his parents, he sounded distant aside from other obvious ways."

"Hello." She looked at Mallory and listened and she shook her head. "I can get us there but Hunter does not have addiction problems." Did he? "I mean I don't think Hunter has addiction problems." Shit.

"Well there was that one time we shared blood." She said as she thought about it. "I was so high I felt like they show where you realize what you are doing is freaky but it feels good that you do not stop." Had he done something to her during that time she did not have time to think about that. "Look I just wanted him to stop hitting me."

She had no idea the depths that would lead to. "How was I supposed to know his mother sucked?" She did now though. "Come on we can sort this out once we get him." She was not even angry at this point she was just sad but also wondering how she could not see his addictions.

-mega flight jump cause that is fun -

37 hours later they had arrived and she was wondering what was next as she went in with them and was now waiting on Hunter to come out. "I booked this for a while so you guys get four days of vacation and I won't yell at Hunter." It was the best that she could offer.

"I slept on the plane so I am fine," she said as she looked at him. "Hunter you just got out of jail maybe you should rest." She doubted he could get any rest because no telling what his body was going through. Maybe food would help she did not quite know but he did look like he was going through it which was expected.

She looked at Daphne and shrugged. "Great job Daphne you broke him." Between Cami and Daphne it was no wonder the boy had came to Amsterdam. "This is wild but also good work. I did not think Hunter would ever be as sad and down trodden and pathetic as he is now and yet I am proven wrong."

She looked everywhere but at Hunter which was different for her but she finally did. "Hunter you look like a whore whose seen too many rough nights." Not so pretty anymore but even she could see the change. The one thing that seemed constant was that no one really ever told Hunter no. She could see why it was hard trying to figure out what to say because she did not want to fuss.

"I guess that would be fine," she said as she went over and hugged him not thinking and put her hands tightly around him. Her hands seemed to be at "home" as she tried to let go but could not. "Fucking hell, Hunter." Always fussing, always always fussing. "Let me go."

She was trying to let go but every time she was out it was like being pulled back in but she did not expect to be dragged as she was and then he was yelling at her and he had a point but biting her arm? No he did not as she felt it and did not scream because she did not want this magic anyway. Let him have it back and she could go on learning about her art ability though she had a feeling the "magic" of it would never be gone completely.

She was more worried about the addiction side that Hunter seemed to be showing but she would deal with that one day at a time as she looked up at Madison and Mallory. "Neither one of you never taught young him not to bite people?" she asked. Hunter clearly was on some drug induced trip still but at least he seemed calmer which she would take clearly at the moment. "Maybe we should go back to the hotel and eat food there, if anyone sees him doing this we might all get in trouble."
