A/N: it's incredible how much I managed to write on my vacation. Two chapters for my Kim Possible fanfic and two for this story. I guess the last chapter left you with some question about what happened to Eugene, but in this chapter, I promise that if you're reading, you'll find the answer.

Rapunzel woke up from what she thought was a nightmare that Eugene wasn't at her side in the bed when she woke up, but when remembered the letter and didn't want to sleep more and risk another nightmare and got herself up off bed even though, she hadn't slept much more than four to five hours. Eugene's guilt feeling was taking hard on her. She only wanted to dream about herself running into his open arms and kiss him passionately on his lips and never let go of him again, but even though the danger, she had been experiencing yesterday, she didn't blamed him for a second and as much as she knew that he felt a little guilty himself, she knew that he only needed time. Alice and Pascal didn't know that Rapunzel overheard their little conversation and after thinking about, they were right about let him have some time and hopefully he would come back and tell her how much he loved her. It was the thing she wanted and needed to hear more than anything.

After three hours and Rapunzel gone out for a walk, she found Maximus leaving her a note as well.

Dear Rapunzel, Alice and Pascal.

I was called on the phone by my parents when they were at work and they told me that they have arrested the Stabbington Brothers after they according to witnesses have beaten up Eugene when he left us last night. He's at Corona Hospital, out of life danger, but seriously injured and apparently won't be out before in two days because of certain broken limbs and wounds from apparently burnings. I don't know much yet, but I'm driving down to check him and after knowing for certain how he is, I'm going to pick you guys up, I'll call when I'm on my way

Max

Rapunzel stood speechless again, why was the world so cruel to her Eugene? It wasn't fair. She thought she couldn't cry more after yesterday, but she was wrong. She fell down to her knees again and let the tears stream down her cheeks.

After fifty minutes, Rapunzel couldn't cry anymore. She had to stop or else her eyes would never stop being red and it was not going to help on the situation. Pascal knocked on her door and sniffled and answered.

"Come in Pascal" Rapunzel knew it was Pascal because of the way he knocked on the door. It was always twice half hard knocks and nothing more or nothing less. Pascal walked into the room and saw Rapunzel who showed him the note. Pascal took his phone and found Maximus' and called it.

"Maximus Michelson"

"Hello, Max, it's Pascal here. What is status on Eugene?"

"I see you saw my note, but I don't have so much yet"

"But even so, come and pick us up. A certain Mrs. Henderson is sitting her and almost crying her heart out and don't want that to happen so please" Max paused. Just as he was about to answer Pascal, the doctor c came out along with the chief of police, Maximus' father.

"I'll call back in a minute" Maximus put off the phone and turned his attention towards the doctor who was in charge of Eugene after his car crash that time ago.

"Max, we have a charge against Alexander Stabbington and Andrew Stabbington and they'll both be put in court soon and we have witnesses that have confirmed our theory on what happened and tonight it'll be on the news when I have a press conference, but your mother will be home tonight to make some food for you and your friends if they want to stay" Maximus nodded to his father and turned his attention towards the doctor who told him that there was not more to say than the things he had told him on the phone earlier the day.

"Is there anything else we can do your for?"

"I promised my friends to pick them up and take them up here and I'm sure that his girlfriend, Rapunzel would want to see him, but you should might contact his parents, dad" his father nodded and got over and called Eugene's father who was shocked at how unlucky his son turned out to be lately about accidents, but was at the same time furious and was first calmed down when he was told about the court that awaited the Stabbington Brothers.

Maximus got out the hospital and started his car and drove a little faster than he normal did, but he couldn't talk on the phone while driving so he decided to get back a little sooner and get them to the hospital right away. Normally it would take fifteen minutes for Maximus to get from his house to the hospital, but he drove it no less than four minutes and he knew he had got spotted, he might wouldn't have his driving license and all that and besides that, his parents hated when he drove so fast, but he did for his friend Eugene and especially for Rapunzel and the others. He sprinted through the door and got to Rapunzel and Eugene's room and Pascal, Rapunzel and Alice stood shocked as he stood there. They were scared when they heard the over speeding vehicle and the brake he must have made in the swing, but he only took Rapunzel up.

"Let's go! Sorry for not calling, but I got here, let's say, a little faster than normal" Rapunzel grabbed Alice and Pascal ran up by himself and they got out to the car and Maximus again drove a little fast and it scared them a little, but he seemed to have control until a car drove over for red light, but luckily for the four friends, he managed to brake and swing as much as needed. The other car stopped and Maximus stood out to meet the other guy. Maximus looked furious; it scared Rapunzel and the others.

"What the fuck is the idea your crazy bastard!" Maximus shouted so angry that his face almost turned red.

"You got a problem!" the other man asked quite threating.

"You!" Maximus answered cold. Just as the other man got over and tried to beat him up, Maximus avoided and hit him hard by the stomach and as he stood, he smashed Maximus at the face as a police car came over. He arrested the other man and let Maximus and the others drive on after a few question. He asked Maximus to deliver a message to his father and so they got to the hospital and up to the floor they were informed by the nurse at the main entrance. Rapunzel almost sprinted away from the rest of them as they ran fast to keep up to her. They arrived safe and silence at the room where they got a positive update from the doctor that with the right medical attention, he would be out in less than 24 hours. Rapunzel was the first one to get into his room because Eugene's family hadn't showed up yet. Rapunzel walked slowly in as she spotted a sleeping Eugene on the bed and cried a few tears in silence as she walked over and sat on a chair next to him and took her hands to her head.

"Don't cry Rapunzel, please" Rapunzel took her hands away from her face immediately and look onto his face that was burned and bruised and still she saw the beauty in him. Nothing could replace him in her world and she embraced him.

"Are you okay Blondie?" Rapunzel stepped back one or two steps and stood shocked.

"Me? It's you who are injured and you ask if I'm okay. I had my go through a night with nothing, but fear and nightmares, but you're the one in the hospital bed"

"I'm sorry for scaring you, but I'm fine even though they might gave me some of a beat or two" Rapunzel kissed his cheek and smiled at him.

"You know that you're still pretty to me through those burns and I love you even if something had happened yesterday" Eugene signed and leaned back at his pillow, he felt like he got a kiss from an angel.

"I love you too and I you have my word on that one" Eugene leaned up from his pillow again and kissed her on her lips passionately and leaned back again.

"I can't believe I was so lucky to get an angel such as yourself into my life" Rapunzel smiled and put her hand to her heart. Such compliments were overwhelming and that was one of the many reasons why she loved her Eugene. They embraced and separated as the door opened again.

Inside stepped Eugene's parents and Rapunzel was about to leave, but Eugene signed that she could stay with them, his condition wasn't ten times as bad as when he crashed in his car. Rapunzel exchanged looks with his parents and found it fine that she stayed and she brought Jane up to him and sat on the bedside and embraced her big brother. After a few minutes, Rapunzel greeted Eugene with a kiss and left the family to be alone and after they left, Maximus, Pascal and Alice followed Rapunzel inside and after fifteen minutes, they left for Eugene to get his medical attention and drove home. Rapunzel looked rather relieved on the way home. Pascal put his hand on her shoulder and she smiled back.

"Everything's okay Pascal" Pascal smiled at her as a sign of relief and so did Alice while Maximus was fully focused on the road in front of him, but this time, he didn't have a reason for driving fast so he just drove them home in legal tempo and left for a gas station and returned to the wonderful Italian dinner his mother had prepared. His phone beeped and he saw an incoming text message from Eugene.

I'm signed off and am on my way to get my things, I'm gonna spend the last days with my parents and have some time alone with them, hopes you understand, but I'll see you in twenty minutes.

His parents didn't like when he texted at the table, but didn't say anything before he answered.

Fine, I understand. See you in twenty minutes then.

Eugene arrived right on schedule. He knocked on the door and Maximus stood up from the table.

"I'll get that one, it's probably Eugene" he walked out to the door and greeted him. Eugene wasn't normal a man who embraced other guys, but so much had changed in his life since he started at Corona University and no one only had he gone from be known as Flynn Rider to Eugene Fitzherbert, but he had the most beautiful girl and got three of the best friends a guy could ask for.

"Great to see you healthy like always"

"Very funny Max, I know that was sarcastic, but I'm fine so no problemo" Eugene and Maximus laughed at each other shortly and Rapunzel came out to greet him. Eugene looked at Rapunzel who gave him a look that he almost could say that she begged him to stay.

"Rapunzel, I know that you want me to stay, but I haven't seen my parents for real since I brought you home that time before your birthday and that's a while since, but it's only a few days and you have lived seventeen, almost eighteen years without me, a few days should be possible even though I love to be at your side day and night, we need to accept that we can't stick each other every twenty four hours every day for the rest of our lives" Rapunzel lowered her head and sighed, but knew he was right. She nodded her head and as he lifted her head by the chin, she kissed him short and Eugene and Maximus walked in for his lockage. Maximus smiled at him and put his hand on his shoulder.

"You're really lucky to have someone who cares that much for you" Eugene nodded.

"Yes, I love you Rapunzel with all my heart, not only because of her amazing looks, it's a bonus, but her person is the most beautiful thing about her, but I think that you can pull it higher with Alice if you want to" Eugene sent him a naughty look that made Maximus blush.

"What should I do? I don't know anything about that stuff and I never had a girlfriend before, and what if she doesn't feel the same about me?" Eugene shook his head.

"I can see it in her eyes when you don't look. You are too nervous about that, but of course the time is difficult, either me or Rapunzel had been dating someone for real before we started"

"What did you do for make Rapunzel fall for you?" Eugene lost his words. It was a hard question to answer and it wasn't easy to answer on the moment.

"You know what Max? Come over to my parents' house tomorrow and we'll talk about it a little further" Maximus nodded.

"Here's the address. See you there tomorrow, but we have to do it short, I need some time with my parents"

"That's fair, but let's take it as it comes, there's after all five days left of our break"

"True, but I also have the court against the Stabbington Brothers the day before we start, hopefully they'll get a fair punishment and we won't have to see them every day at school" Maximus nodded, he also didn't like them and besides that, what they did done to Eugene hadn't made him mind more in their turn.

"I'll call when I leave" Eugene nodded and walked out with his lockage as before he left, he embraced Alice, Maximus and Pascal goodbye and kissed Rapunzel on the lips and she stood and waved all until he was turning around the corner and was way out of sight.

Please make me happy and leave a review, it don't have to be way fancy, but just a little opinion is okay, just write a little text below you, anonymous or official user, it doesn't matter.
