The fear of loss 2

Nene rushed over to Mackey and sat down on the bed. She noticed that Mackey's hand was shaking, so she held it and squeezed it slightly.
"Mackey? Mackey!" yelled Nene.
Downstairs, everyone could hear someone shouting.
"What the hell?" yelled Priss.
"That sounds like Nene," exclaimed Leon standing up.
"Something must be wrong with Mackey," cried Sylia running up the stairs followed by the others.

They burst into the bedroom charging over to the bed.
"Nene! What's wrong?" asked Sylia.
"I'm not sure, but Mackey's moaning as if he's in pain and his hand's shaking," answered Nene. Everyone crowded around the bed and heard Mackey moan. Sylia knelt beside the bed and gently stroke Mackey's hair, whispering his name.

Suddenly Mr. Henderson walked in with a basin of water. He soaked a towel in the water and handed it to Sylia after he dried it. Gently, Sylia placed the towel on Mackey's forehead. After a while, Mackey's moans became softer and softer until they completely disappeared. Sylia took the wet towel off Mackey's forehead and handed it back to Mr. Henderson.

Nene grabbed a dry towel off the bedside table and dried Mackey's forehead. Afterwards she placed the towel back on the bedside table. Nene closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
Suddenly Priss spoke up.
"Hey, Mackey's eyelids are moving," shouted Priss.
Nene immediately opened her eyes and everyone crowded around the bed and sure enough, Mackey's eyelids were moving.

"Mackey! Mackey!" yelled Nene, squeezing his hand even tighter. Slowly Mackey began to open his eyes. At first only a thin line was visible, but soon Mackey opened his eyes completely and when he did he quickly sat up, his hand still in Nene's grasp.

"Mackey!" yelled everyone.
"What the…? Where am I?" asked Mackey. Suddenly he noticed all of his friends smiling at him.
"Sylia? Nigel?" asked Mackey confused.
"Are you okay, kid?" asked Nigel kindly.
"I'm…I'm fine, Nigel," replied Mackey.
"Glad to have you back, Mackey," smiled Priss.

Mackey smiled at Priss. Suddenly he felt someone holding his hand and he turned around to see that it was Nene, with the biggest grin on her face ever.
"Nene!" yelled Mackey smiling.
"Mackey, you're alright!" shouted Nene.

Suddenly Nene let go of Mackey's hand and wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him, surprising everyone. Tears flowed freely out of her eyes as Nene hugged Mackey. Mackey was completely stunned by Nene suddenly hugging him and he didn't know what to do. Suddenly Nene let go of Mackey and pulled back when she realised what she had just done. Nene moved back on the bed and looked down at her hands to hide her red face, while wiping her tears away. Mackey was also blushing.
"Awwwww!" teased everyone putting on cute faces. This only caused Nene and Mackey to feel even more embarrassed.

"You should thank Nene, Mackey. She was with you the whole time you were unconscious," said Sylia.
"Sylia," murmured Nene looking up at her. Nervously, Nene looked at Mackey. When she saw him looking at her, she quickly looked away.

"Yeah, you should've seen the way Nene was holding your hand," added Leon.
"Leon," whispered Nene. Leon heard Nene call him, but he wasn't about to stop. Nene always teased him about Priss and he is not about to give up this perfect opportunity for revenge.

"She was crying and yelling out, Mackey, Mackey!" teased Leon, imitating Nene's voice. All of their friends began giggling. Mackey could feel his face getting hotter.
"Leon!" screamed Nene.
For a second, everyone was silent, but then Leon spoke up.
"Oh, sorry. Am I embarrassing you, Nene?" asked Leon.
Everyone suddenly burst into laughter.
"It's not funny," said Nene blushing.
"We better leave you two alone," said Sylia between laughs.
Everyone followed Sylia out, closing the door.
