Chapter 2
Stella's POV
I entered in my apartment and placed my purse and keys on the table near the door. I sat down on sofa heavily, thinking about dinner with Mac. Outside the lab Mac was totally different person. This evening was not an exception. I lean back on the coach, thinking about the dinner we had few moments ago. All the time at the restaurant Mac was gentle, caring, not forget to mention he smiled all the time. Only thought about him was giving me butterflies in my stomach. `Maybe I'm in love with him? ` I asked myself. But an answer to that question was quite obvious. `No I can't be in love with Mac, my best friend, my partner. Anyway if I really in love with him, he probably doesn't feel same about me`.
I was so busy with my thoughts that I didn't noticed how fast fifteen minutes were gone. When I realized what time is it, I stood up from the coach and headed to bathroom to take a shower. Few minutes later I got out of bathroom, heading to make something to eat when my phone rang. I frowned `who can call so late`. As I went to pick up my phone I checked caller id. `Flack` it was saying.
"Bonasera" I answered
"Hey Stella" I couldn't notice something different in Flack's voice. It was someway sad and stressed.
"Hey Don. What had happened that you're calling me so late? "
"I don't know how to tell you this…" I was getting worried. Flack usually didn't have a difficultness to tell something about or work.
"C'mon Don tell me what happened" I told him expecting the worst.
Flack sighed deeply "There was a terrible car crash at the intersection near your home. One car crashed into other…" There was a long pause. Flack's voice was shaking now. " The one car was totally deformated. The driver of crashed car is Mac"
I barely heard what Flack was saying. I was barely holding back my tears. "Oh my god…" I whispered. The worst my nightmare was becoming real. " At what hospital he is? " I asked quietly. I don't have any idea how I managed to ask that without tearing up. Just about half an hour Mac and I had wonderful dinner. We were laughing, joking all the time and now… Mac's life is in god's hands.
"He's at New York's central hospital" Flack said in shaking voice.
"Meet you there" I said and hang up. After I hang up I couldn't hold back tears anymore.
