No Time To Rest

My eyes fluttered open as I tried to recognize where I was. The original Seri must have returned me back to this body. I quickly looked to where Dante had been sitting, but the seat was empty. I forced myself up and winced from the pain.

"Where the f*ck-"

"EEK!" I heard someone shout and looked to the corner to see William holding his heart from the sudden surprise. He shouted, "Don't just suddenly wake up like that! It scared me..."

Well there's William. Now where is Dante? Why isn't he here right now? I tried to sit up, but struggled. William threw down the documents in his hands and rushed over to me.

He looked at me worried, "Wait! You should stay laying down. The wound on your back hasn't healed yet. If you move, the stitches could reopen."

"Where's Dante?" I asked not caring about the throbbing pain in my back.

He made a troubled expression and looked away, "You just woke up and that's the first thing you ask?"

I looked at him, "William. Tell me."
