Genie Lover Ch. 01

Raindrops splashed heavily against the windows, Liam and his mother was in the hospitable waiting to see Doctor Harvey he looked to his mother's worried face he was worried too, Liam always hated hospital it's just the feeling of the place it was always bad in his mind if they needed to go there it was never for a good reason.

"Mrs. Bourne to see Doctor Harvey, he's ready in his office down the hall," A speaker said sounding like a woman's voice.

"Come on Liam let hope it's good news," said his mother.

He nodded and both got up and made there down the hallway doors with signs saying different doctors names on them, the hallway was cold and lifeless he hope this wouldn't take long him and his family have been through enough shit already they came to a door with a sign saying 'Doctor Harvey' this is whom they needed to see.

The heavy wooden door opened and a middle age man with brown hair and a moustache was there to let them in, he also had big rectangle glasses, they entered and the Doctor went back behind his desk and both Liam and his mother sat down on two chairs, Liam took a look round his office it was clean and tidy, his shelve was filled with pictures of perverse patients and awards for his hard work.

"Mrs. Bourne how have you been," Said the doctor.

"Not good we've had to deal with the recent passing of my father, we were at his funeral a few days ago but thank you for asking," She said sadden but collected herself, "hows my daughter's condition doing?"

This is why they were here for Liam's little sister Abby, she's has been very sick for a long time it's been painful for the family.

She had brain cancer and she been fighting it for three years now it was cruel and unfair she was only nine years when she first got it and he was 18, they learnt that brain cancer can happen in children but it was rare, Liam will never forget the fear he felt when she suddenly passed out in the middle of the street, holding her in his arms trying to wake her, he quickly called the hospital and they told the family what was wrong, the big C every family feared, cancer.

Since then they tried everything to get rid of cancer it cost a lot of time and money if it wasn't for his grandfather she probably wouldn't have lasted this long all he wanted was to wrap his arms around his granddaughter again...it's a shame that will never happen now.

"Your daughter condition is...not...going well it's been...getting worst," the doctor said saddened he has been Abby's doctor for the last three years he quickly became a friend of the family he was one of the best that dealt with this type of thing.

Liam and his mother's hearts sank the new treatment wasn't working, they didn't want to give up maybe there was something them missed that could help Abby they had to hope and try.

"Clare this is going to be hard to say but...we tried three years now and she only getting weaker she hates those treatments maybe the best thing we should do is...let her go."

"NO, she is strong I know there something out there I won't give up on her please take a lot around maybe there something we missed we just...have to check to try...she's worth it...she's my miracle," she said beginning to cry.

Liam placed a hand on her should and she held it trying to comfort her, he was close to crying but didn't want to show if he wanted to be strong for them he had too, he needed too, the Doctor sighed.

"Ok I will have along around again but it's probably going to be expensive."

"I don't care where ever it takes...thank you, Doctor."

"Can I see Abby?" Liam asks quietly.

"I'm sorry she's sleeping right now, but you can see her later when she's more alert I'll inform the staff you'll drop by later to see her."

"Thanks, Doc."

Everyone got up both Liam and his mother shook the doctor hand and made there way out of the office, he and his mother were walking together heading to the car the rain started getting worst so they hurried.

Once they were in the safety of the car his mother broke and began to cry, Liam try to comforted her they both knew Abby hated the tests and treatment and maybe it was the best thing to let her go but she just couldn't both Liam and Abby were miracles to her and in her eyes and she wanted to keep hoping.

Liam Mother soon calmed down and she started the care they were heading to a law firm to discuss his grandfather's will, the drive was long and quite both were in there minds thinking about the terrible month they've had.

After about a ten minute drive they arrived, parking the car and heading inside both went to the desk and asked about there appointment, the woman responded that their grandfather lawyer was going through some paperwork and would be finished soon.

So both of them went to the waiting area to sit down his mother got out her phone texting her husband (Liam and Abby father) the bad news, Liam looked over and saw a poster saying 'Equal justice' showing a person in a business suit defending a crouching person in pain, he thought to himself 'where is Abby's justice for the hell she's living through' he shook his head pushing it out his mind it's cancer nobody could prevent it, it just happens.

A woman in her mid thrifty came walking towards them she had a suit on and her brown hair done neatly to give a professional look, she was his grandfather's lawyer who has been handle detail today with the will.

"Mrs. Bourne I apologize for the wait I'm ready when you are to handle details about the will you father left."

"Yes, I'm ready to let go Liam."

Soon they were all in the lawyer office, they began to talk about all the law details about the will which Liam had a hard time understanding he was never good with law-related things, they spoke for about half an hour and now she was ready to tell them what the will says.

"Ok so the will states that my daughter aka you Mrs. Bourne will inherit the remainder of his money and including any property that has been left behind he hopes the money will be used to bring happiness to his family and hopes his granddaughter recovers soon and wishes the best for you all, there is a storage unit that belongs to your father as of this will, it now belong to you," she grabs a key from her desk and passes it to Liam's mother, "this key should open the unit I will tell you where it is after we conducted our business might be a good idea to go there and have a look around before the government tries to nab any of it."

"Thank you, hope the money will help, is there anything else to discuss I will like to get to this unit and see what's there," Clare says gently playing with the key in her hand.

"Just a few things."

They continued for about ten minutes discussing more law business that Liam didn't understand it was boring and a bit interesting at the same time but he kept quiet, soon everything was cleared up and Liam and his mother was back in the car.

"So I wonder what we will find at the unit," Liam said.

"It could be anyone guesses he did love collecting strange things...still the money we got should help to pay for a new treatment for Abby...Liam can I ask you something."

"Yeah...sure mum," he looked at her waiting for her response.

"Are...are we doing the right thing...for Abby," she said sadden knowing the impact of what she is saying.

"I don't know mum...it's good were not giving up but...no were not giving up on her," he placed a hand on her shoulder, "she can beat this I know she can I believe that Harvey will find something that will work, ok mum," he said trying to give her hope.

"Yeah thanks, Liam what would I do without you," she smiled softly at him.

He smiled and soon his mother started driving to the unite, Liam was a little excited to see what his grandfather had left them, his grandfather always loved to travel and bring back random thing he collected on his adventures Abby always went crazy when he said he had a new story for her she really did enjoy them.

They came to the place the lawyer said as far as Liam could see was storage units he wonders if he catches a crew filming storage wars, they parked and got out going to the entrance where a bloated man standing scratching his belly.

"You, Mrs. Bourne?" he said in a heavy American accent.

"Yes, I am I guess my grandfather lawyer told you we were coming?"

"Yep names Brian I'll be ya guide for this afternoon, now what number is the unit?"

"It's storage unit 197."

"All right let get going."

Brian started walking and Liam and his mother started following, Liam looked around at all the units a part of him curious as to there content but then a question came to him what was grandpa's stuff doing here instead of his home.

"Hey, mum why is grandpa's stuff here and not at his home?"

"Because it was moved out, his home was immediately bought after his death, the people wanted all the stuff inside as well but because of the will we got it, really creepy someone would buy as home as soon as someone died."

Why would they do that and why did they want the stuff inside...was grandpa hiding something special...probably not Liam thought to himself, he quickly hurried and they soon ended up at the unit, Brian slipped the key in and opened big metal door sliding it up everyone suddenly saw a lot of boxes and a few shelves with random stuff on it probably from his many travels.

"Here you go take all the time you need...I'm sorry for your lost I hope you find what you're looking for."

"Thanks Brian, Liam you can look in first, I'll look after I'm probably got to sell most of this stuff never hurts to have more money for Abby."

He nodded and made his way to the packed unit going inside he saw a bunch of stuff he loved, some old toys and a few statues of animals made from different materials it would be cool to have a few of them in his room it was pretty barren.

While looking around he saw something that caught his interest, he slowly moved past everything making his way to the mystery object and saw it was...a thin vase of some sort looking more like a bottle but it was really beautiful, decorated with purple glass and golden metal that hugged gently around it had a pretty design, the strangest thing was that it has some type of cap or tip on top.

Liam was in front of it, he reached out and gently picked it up, a chill when down his spine but not the fearful type he never remember seeing it at his grandpa's place he wondered where he got it from, he slowly brought his hand top the world went silent around him getting closer to the tip ready to pull it off.

"Liam, you done in there?"

Hearing his mothers call brought him out of his strange state he realized he was about to take off the top, he thought to himself why he was about to do that and soon began to hold onto the vase, he walked out with the vase safely in his hands.

"Yeah mum, I'm done found this cool vase...I can find somewhere in my room for this."

"It looks nice don't remember seeing it tho, anyway I'm going grab a few things in there before we head home so you hold onto that vase, don't want to accidentally sell it," Said his mother getting ready to enter the packed unit.

Liam leaned against the wall holding the vase, Brain was helping his mother grab a few things she was going to return again and collect more to sell but now she was just getting childhood things, Liam looked at the vase again the person that crafted this most of being amazing it doesn't look machine made but handcrafted but he wouldn't know the difference but you could just sense it, it was strange to him but he didn't notice the figure standing next to him.

"That a nice vase you have there," said the mysterious figure.

Liam nearly screams as he jumped back gripping on to the vase, whom the hell is this guy sneaking up to him, Liam looked at the man and had a bad feeling about him he was wearing a black business suit and what looked like black sunglasses he stared at the vase nest in Liam's arms.

"T-Thank you," he said quietly, Liam was always shy and strangers seem to stress him out.

"A very nice vase indeed how much would you be willing to part with it, it would be wonderful for my collection."

"I-I'm sorry this is not f-for sale," Liam said weakly.

"Come on now boy," he wrapped his arm around his should bring him close, Liam tried to pull away but he held him still, Liam was scared now.

"I'm willing to pay a good price for your little vase, think about what you could get at your age maybe something really really nice," He said eerily desperately wanting the vase.

Liam was about to refuse again but he heard a voice come to his rescue.

"HEY! what are you doing with my son!?" She said angrily making her way over.

He released his grip from him and he rushed over to his mother he swears the man tried to grab the vase from him and missed, why was this vase so important to this guy?

"Just a friendly chat miss I'm interested in buying it."

"And what did my son say."

"Well...he said it wasn't for sale but I was only trying to-" he was about to continue but his mother interrupted him.

"He said it wasn't for sale so you can leave it at that."

"Yes I know he said that," he said getting annoyed, "I was going to give him-"

"He said no, now please leave."

He signed annoyed and started walking away from him and his mother watched him go he turned back one last time looking at the vase and soon disappeared, his mother returned to the unit and grabbed a box full of stuff.

"Found everything I wanted now let's get home, I'll come back another day for the rest thanks for the help, Brian."

"It's no trouble ma'am have a good day now, just let me lock this up."

"All right."

They waited for Brian to lock up, he soon handed back the keys to his mother and all made their way to the entrance, he still held onto the vase tightly it was strange how he was so protective of it.

Soon he and his mother was back in the car vase in his hands and stuff in the boot of the car, they said goodbye and thanked Brian again and soon they were driving home, Liam couldn't stop thinking about that strange man wanting his vase why was he so interested in it.

"You ok Liam? I know that guy back there scared you, what the hell is that guys deal."

"I don't know he just wanted the vase and got really creepy about wanting it."

"Well don't worry about it ok, he just some random guy he doesn't know us."

Still, Liam could help but be creeped out he was just so pushy about it, he held onto the vase tightly it sat safely in his arms.

###

They finally got home, his mother opening the door and entered Liam quickly enter after her leading to an open room, to the right was an 'L' shaped sofa positioned in form of a TV with a small coffee table in the middle and to the left was a big 'C' shaped kitchen with a small dining table in the middle, neither side dominated the space the right side was the living room and right was the kitchen and straight ahead was stairs leading up and a hallway leading to a back room next to the stairs.

Liam's mother placed the stuff on the dining table and wiped her sweaty head, she patted around her jeans pockets checking she had everything important, she got out her phone to check her messages.

"I'm going out for a few hours to meet with a friend say hi to Abby for me when you see her."

"Yeah sure cya mum."

"See you later Hun," she said with a smile soon leaving the home.

Liam was alone in the house, he looked down at the vase in his hand and decided to bring it to his room going up the stairs and heading to his room at the far end of the hallway, he entered his good sized bedroom with a window on the wall, a queen-sized bed, a desk with his laptop on it, a night stand by his bed and a dresser that had a sliding door, It was made into the wall.

He closed the door and placed the vase on his night stand, he took another look at it a few thoughts went through his head, Where did grandpa get this? Why was that man so interested in it? And...what's inside?

He held the vase in his hands again the world suddenly turned silent, he couldn't hear any cars or birds outside it was like the world just froze not that he noticed he was too focused on the vase, he brought his hand to the top feeling the glass around his fingers and suddenly pull it off, nothing happens he looked inside.

Suddenly smoke suddenly started shooting out of it.

He panicked and placed the smoke spouting vase on his desk, soon the room started to fill with purple smoke but only around the edges then some of the smoke came together taking form and all of a sudden and woman appeared.

She slowly started floating down on to the wooden floor she was beautiful, she was wearing what looked like a belly dancer would wear, purple silk hugged to her body nicely with a few golden jewels making her body eye-catching, she had what looked like a golden breastplate that only covered her big breasts exposing her flawless belly same with her groin with golden metal panties she also had golden bands around her wrists and ankles.

Her dark tanned skin looked smooth same with her long raven hair which looks weaved, she opened her eyes they were dark brown that seems to shimmer a little, she looked toward Liam who just stared at her frozen.

"I am Jennie, the genie of the vase, you are my master, you can make any three wish whatever your heart desires, except for a few which I will tell you now," Said said gracefully with a slight Arabian accent.

Liam continued to stare at her, shell-shocked, she looked at him and smiled a little finding his shocked expression cute.

"First, you can not wish death upon another person," She said waiting for his response he just nodded and she continued, "Second, I cannot bring people back from dead there souls has journeyed to the afterlife I can not disturb the balance," again she looked at him and he nodded, "Finally, you can not wish for more wishes understand?"

"Y-Yeah," Liam said quietly.

The purple smoke around him returned to the bottle leaving only him and Jennie in the room.

"Wonderful I'm ready to make your first wish master," She said smiling happily waiting for his response.

Liam didn't know what to think he had a woman appear right in front of him she says she a genie and said she grant his wishes? This is impossible, this is unbelievable, Jennie watched as he said nothing.

"Are you all right master?"

"Err y-yeah just prossessing everything that j-just happened err please don't call me master my name is Liam."

"I see don't worry Liam, this normally is a shock when they first see me take your time to adjust, I'll come back once your ready," Jennie said returns to purple and entering the vase.

Liam sat down on the bed how the fucking hell did his grandpa get a genie lamp...err vase from...wait she said she could make any wish come true maybe she can...he thought to himself, smoke slowly came out of the vase again and form into Jennie she was now sitting next to him on the bed.

"Are you ready for your wish," she said softly.

"Err I think so but can I ask you something?"

"Do you wish to ask me something?"

"No, no just ask you a question please."

"Ok then ask away."

"What are you I mean I know you're a genie but err you people are mythical creatures, how can they possibly exist and yet here you are I don't understand how this is possible."

"Anything is possible Liam I was made out of the aether a place full of magical energy and even energy from other dimensions and I was made to grant the wishes of humans, simple as that."

Liam knew there was more to this story but didn't press on thinking of the first wish he was going to make a sudden revelation came to him, it struck him with lighting heavy exist filled him he looked at Jennie who sat on his bed still wears her silk clothing.
