Okay, so if you live in the US and you've ever been to a fine little place called Cracker Barrel, then you've probably played there little triangle board with the pegs where you have move pegs over other pegs to eliminate them. I went to Cracker Barrel while I was coming home from vacation, and I got ADDICTED! My dad got me one from their store, and it took me forever to finish my review responses, because it's impossible to end up with only one peg on the board! OMG, enough of this! ENJOY!
Fabian's POV
I slowly opened my eyes, because my vision was significantly blurry. I looked up a white room, with a white ceiling. Everything was so bright, it hurt my eyes. Was I in heaven? I felt someone squeeze my hand, and I turned my head to see a sound asleep Nina. How did I end up in this place?
I moved around a bit, which caused Nina to stir awake. "Fabian!" she exclaimed hugging me. "You have no idea how happy I am to see you!" she cried, tears of joy falling from her eyes. I looked up at her and smiled.
"N-Nina," I said in a raspy voice. "Where am I? How did I end up here? How long have I been out?" A series of questions came escaping my mouth.
"You're in the hospital Fabian," she said. "I found you in a dark alley, because I was looking for you when I found out you had missed your classes and you were an hour late for dinner. You've been here for four hours," she sighed.
"Bloody hell!" I whispered and screamed.
"Fabian, Fabian shh, everything is okay. You're okay and that's all that matters," she said calmly. She took my hand again, and squeezed it. "Do you remember what happened?"
"Y-Yeah, I think so. I was walking out of the hospital. I remembered this alley way Eddie had shown me, which cuts right to campus from the hospital. I took it, and just my luck, the first time going through there, these thugs come from out of nowhere threatening me for my money. When I wouldn't give it to them, one of the guys threw a couple punches and I was on the ground. I tried to fight back, but there were too many of them. One guy pulled out a knife, but I resisted so he could only cut my cheek and my leg. That's all I remember before seeing your beautiful face and then passing out," I somehow managed to stumble out.
"Oh my God, Fabian I promise I will never let anything like that happen to you again! Even if it kills me," she screamed.
"Nina, stop. It was just a coincidence. I'm not taking that alley way anymore, trust me." I paused for a minute. "Nina?"
"Hmm?" she asked.
"I'm sorry I was late for dinner," I laughed.
"You're in a hospital! I think you have an excuse," she laughed back. It seemed like ages since I last heard her beautiful laugh.
"What'd you cook?" I asked smirking.
"Just your favorite," she shrugged also returning the smirk.
"What? I missed fish and chips night! Man, I really hate those assholes!" I exclaimed, still laughing.
"You and me both, babe," she smiled, messing with my hair. "I love you Fabian," she said.
"I love you too Neens. Don't you ever forget that, okay?" I asked.
"Okay."
"So, what'd you write on my cast?" I smiled.
"Why don't you take a look instead of having me read it for you," she said laughing. I looked down at the black cast that covered most of my hand and part of my arm.
It read, "Don't go through that alley ever again! I love you, and I can't wait to make you fish n' chips later on. Love, Neens." I smiled at the message.
"Do you think you could make them again when I get home?" I laughed.
"I'd love to," she said before placing her lips to mine.
Nina's POV, Four Days Later
Fabian and I walked into our apartment for the first time together in five days. Fabian and I intertwined our fingers with Fabian's good hand, and plopped on the couch. "Sit on my lap," Fabian commanded.
"No! What if I sit on your hand," I pouted.
"Nina, it's covered up with a cast. I doubt I'm going to feel if you sit on it," he laughed. I rolled my eyes as I punch him in the gut.
"I'm going to get some ice for your eye. Don't move," I said sternly.
"Okay, okay," he whined. I rolled my eyes and proceeded to the kitchen. Before opening the fridge, I looked at all the pictures of Fabian and me, most of them Amber took. I looked at the picture of the very first time we shared a kiss. It was the prom of freshmen year, and we had just been elected prom king and queen.
There was one of our foreheads touching taken during junior year. There was a beautiful black and white photo. That was my favorite picture. I asked Amber to take a photo of me for my profile, and Fabian ended up sneaking behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist. He was whispering something in my ear during the picture. He was telling me to meet me in his room, because he wanted to tell me something. That was the first time he told me he loved me.
I sighed as I opened the freezer, grabbing the cold icepack. I walked back into the living room to find it completely empty. "Fabian, come on! This isn't funny. You just disappeared into an alley, so please come out." Nothing.
I walked into Fabian and I's room and found nothing either. I checked under the bed, but there was nothing. Nothing in the closet either. I sighed and walked out of the room again.
As I was checking in the bathroom, something grabbed me by the waist, making me scream bloody murder. I turned around to see Fabian right in front of me. "Fabian! Don't ever scare me like that again!" I shouted, hitting him hard on the shoulder.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't resist," he laughed.
"If you want that fish and chip dinner, I suggest you apologize and start sucking up to me," I mocked.
"I'm sorry babe," he replied kissing me for a long time. As usual, my arms went around his neck and his around my waist. "I love you," he said after we broke apart.
"I love you too," I smiled. "Now, how about those fish and chips?" I laughed.
"I'd love that," he said kissing my nose. Boy was I glad I had Fabian.
