Heart Of InnocenceChapter 3
// I lay my head down
On a pillow of white
Here in the dark
I am cradled in peace //Elizabeth woke up the next morning with tears in her eyes. She had once again cried herself to sleep. She missed William so much.
She remembered about his call and went downstairs to check the answering machine. It read "0" messages, sighing. She sat in the kitchen by the phone waiting for him to call and hoping it would come soon.

William awoke as his dad stopped the car.
"We're here, son." Giles said as he stepped out of the car.
William stepped out just after him. "So, this is our new place, huh?" It was new, a bit smaller, but it was a house none the less. "Seems kinda' small don't ya' think?"
’Well it's not like we'll be having guests over anyway.’ William thought.
---
'Ugh!!!!! Why isn't he calling?!' Elizabeth thought while waiting impatiently for William's call. She'd been waiting since yesterday for his phone call. 'They should've gotten there by now. It's only a 2 hour drive!'. The voices yelled in the back of her head. But, she continued to wait and let them get settled in a little first.
---
"Da! Did we get the phone lines hooked up yet?" William asked calling from another room.
"No, son. I'm sorry. It will most likely take a day or two"
'Bloody hell! This is why I need a cell phone!' He thought. "When will they come?" He asked again.
"I am afraid I don't know they should be here in a few days!"
'Lizabeth's probably worried sick by now. She'll probably think I forgot about her.' He thought. "Okay, Fine!" Will answered back.
---
The next day -
'Give it up, Elizabeth! It's been 2 days straight! He's probably already forgotten about you.' She thought to herself and sighed. 'No wonder he moved away, he couldn't even stand to be with me. Better yet bother to call me like he said he would. This was just such a waste of time.'
Elizabeth got up and left for her room.
