Chapter 12: Surprise

I'm sitting in my hospital bed, bored to death, waiting for Nick to call. He's taking to long so I call him.

"Hey…what took you so long!" I asked, irritated.

"Sorry, I…um…I was just about to call you."

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, sure you were…do you think maybe you could stop by the house and get the CD? Please, please, please? I'll love ya forever!"

"What! You don't already love me forever?" he asked, pretending to be offended. I grinned. "Which one do you want? The actual CD or the recording?"

"Which one do you think, dumbass?"

"Oops, sorry, blonde moment," he joked, "anything else you want, your highness?"

"Um…a change of clothes, doesn't matter. And if HE'S there, don't worry about it; just go another time when he's not there. I don't want you to get hurt."

"Like I did."

"Like you did." He stated point blank.

"He knows me too well."

"Yeah, like I did. You know he'll either be drunk or passed out, if he's even there. PLEASE don't risk it."

"Don't worry, I know how he is. I'm sure you haven't forgotten what happened last time I tried to get him away from you."

I flinched at the mention of that incident.

"Actually, I haven't been able to get that image out of my head." I admitted.

"Tell me about it." He said, and I knew he was rolling his eyes.

"I'm just glad you were able to get him away from me and than get away yourself. I just wish you hadn't gotten hurt."

Little did I know, Ray was outside the door, listening to every word I said.

Ray walked in just than, and I gasped, dropping the phone.

"Madi? Madi?"

"If you wanted to see me that bad, you could've called. It really wasn't necessary to throw yourself in front of a moving vehicle." He said, his face serious, then seeing the look on my face, grinned, than came over and enveloped me in a big bear hug.
