There was a rustle of the sheets as someone moved from my bed, and I jolted awake.
"Sorry, Rae. I was just going to get you some breakfast," Na said, as she wrapped a jacket around her shoulders. "I didn't mean to wake you up. How are you feeling?"
I nodded, "I'm fine. My mouth is dry, but I'm ok."
She placed a black remote in my hand. "Why don't you entertain yourself while I grab that breakfast?"
I nodded again and watched her leave before I turned the silent screen on. The room was illuminated with light as words softly drifted through the air. I looked to my right at the bedside table and noticed the time: 2:45 P.M.
I wonder what could be on at 2:45?
I got my answer when I had scrolled through the channels several times. I rolled my eyes at the background music that I heard coming from the paparazzi television show that nearly ruins every celebrity. Melrose Entertainment.
"In other news, international singer and local mistress, Raegan Holt, is still in the hospital after her manager, Richard Morrison, allegedly attacked her. No word is given on her condition or on what really happened. Parker Yuen, best know for Romance Under The Stairs and Raegan's boyfriend has commented and said 'Right at this moment, Rae is taking time to rest and recover from something that should not have happened in the first place and we appreciate the media giving us privacy in this horrid time.' Nothing else was said to us as he boarded a plane heading to Russia."
Pictures of Roman, Raina, and the twins popped up on the screen. "It also appears that Raegan's family has finally come to visit her. Roman Holt, also known as the lead singer of HOLT, was seen walking into the hospital with younger sister Raina Scott, along with Reece and Rose Holt. Some have wondered where the rest of the Holt family are, but we can safely say that Teresa Holt is in Hawaii at this very moment dancing the hula with her current beau, millionaire Ryan Jefferson."
I shut the tv off, not wanting to hear more. I sighed as I laid back into my bed, but that was short-lived because Raina banged on the door.
"Hope you didn't fall asleep while I was gone. Then, I would have had to pour ice cold water on you and that wouldn't have been fun."
I raised an eyebrow, "You were praying for that, weren't you?"
She groaned, "Heck yes."
I giggled at her dissappointment, and then I noticed her empty arms. "Where is the breakfast you went to get?"
Na sighed, "I got hungry on the way, so I ate it and then didn't want to go back for more. We can stop at Tanny's on the way home if you want."
"Home? You mean?"
Raina smiled and nodded, "The doctor just released you to be discharged. All I have to do is sign the papers and you are scott-free... Get it?"
I groaned, "I get it, Na. Just go sign the stinking papers."
She smiled and skipped out the door. I shook my head at her silliness, but ignored her as I turned back to the black tv. I grabbed the remote and turned it back on, almost regretting it.
"No word is said about the whereabouts of Richard Morrison, but hopefully he will be apprehended soon. Back to you, Jeff."
I turned the channel several times before I stopped it on an older show. The jokes were golden as I giggled along with the audience.
"How old are you exactly?" I jumped at the voice that sounded through the room. I clicked the mute button and looked toward Raina and giggled at her.
"It's funny, that's all. Plus, I met Bridget Mett and she was this funny in person!"
"How have you met so many famous people?"
I raises an eyebrow at her and gestured to myself, "Have you forgotten that I am famous in over 16 countries?"
Raina giggled, "Yes, I seem to forget that a lot. Especially since I live a normal life with Kyle and the kids... How lonely I am."
We laughed together before there was a knock at the door.
"You are free to go, Ms. Holt, but please refrain from any activities that may cause further injury," The doctor said, closing the door behind him. "I have enough comments from your fans expressing that they are angry that I have not 'cured' you yet. Please, in the future, please keep your fans away from our hospital. They are rather scary."
I giggled but nodded.
"Very well, that is all. Have a nice day, Ms. Holt."
The doctor left and I was finally free! After six days in the hospital, I was definitely ready to go home.
"Are you hungry? We can still stop at Tanny's if you really want to."
I looked at her bewildered. "Of course I want to stop at Tanny's! Do you know how long it's been since I've been there? Four years, Na. Four. Years. You know how hard it is not to come crawling back to those delicious cheese fries and that hearty burger... but I can't, because I'm working and it's always away from home."
"Speaking of home, guess where you are staying for the next couple of weeks until they find your crazy manager. With me! And Kyle. And George. And Anna... Oh, and Kyle's mother is in town as well."
I smiled, "How is Clarice, anyway?"
"Still the devil's sister, but hey, she's family. Gotta love her."
Clarice Scott was one of America's richest women. She made her living off of diapers. Yes, diapers. She invented some kind of new super diaper and has been a billionaire since then. Of course, she never shares her fortune with her son and her daughter-in-law.
"No, but since George was born, she has been a little better. At least this time she didn't call me an ungrateful cow."
I scoffed at the mention. "That woman isn't the devil's sister. She makes the devil shiver in fear. She's something entirely different; something more evil."
"A bunny?"
The giggles loudly followed.
I nodded, "Sure, she's an evil bunny. Except she never stops, so she's like the energized bunny..."
"Stop, you're just making it worse."
I chuckled, but dressed myself into my normal clothes and sat on the edge on the bed. "I'm so ready for my own bed. Or your own bed."
"Yeah, I bet. You have had a rough couple of days, but it'll be better. Once they find Richard, everything will be back to normal."
"I really hope so."
