🌹CHAPTER FIVE🌹

Lena, being herself asked me to explain everything that happened and I happily did. I'm not even going to complain about talking about our kiss because the memories are amazing and I love remembering it, and even if it did happen only a couple of minutes ago.

"It seems you had a magical time" She says and I can hear the bitterness in her tone. I frown, I don't know why she is this rude or bitter and angry to me. What have I done to her? Then again I've been in a hospital. That is enough to frustrate anyone, but if there is anyone that should be frustrated, it's me.

I'm the one that was shot and I'm the one that stuck in this bed and can't even stand on my own two feet and that makes me so mad that I can't even walk. I need help to get to the bathroom and I even need help to shower. In fact I need to take a bath to clean myself.

In the first couple of days, I wasn't even allowed to clean myself because I could barely even move my body. My upper body was in so much pain and my lower body even greater one. The bullet may not have killed me but it did hurt, a lot and that pain can never disappear from me.

Most would think that I am just going to forget that this ever happened and it will disappear from my memory but it will never go away. I will never be able to forget the agonizing pain of when that bullet entered my body and the aftermath is even worse.

This hospital is worse than anything and I can't stand it anymore. "I want to take you out of this room, to do something other than sitting here and I know where to go" Lena says with a smirk. I eye her suspiciously, I'm not sure what she has planned but I already know that it's not going to be that good.

"I can't leave the room, it took a lot to get to his room. I'm not supposed to leave and who knows who is in the hallways, just waiting to take pictures of me and post it on the internet with lies about me" I tell her and she shakes her head and I think she rolls her eyes.

She smiles to me but there is something hiding in her face that I can't see but it makes me uneasy for some reason but I drop it. "You have to live a little and you need to get out of this room before you go insane, I don't want my best friend being admitted to the psych ward" She tells me.

She brings the wheelchair over to the bed and helps me into it. I don't go that often into the wheelchair but I've learned by now what needles I need to have and I make sure to have them. "I think we should call the nurse" I say to her. Nurse Jenkins was most always the one that helped me into the wheelchair.

He made sure that I was comfortable enough and that nothing was hurting me, he also knew exactly what needles and things were supposed to be attached to me. I still don't understand why I need to have them connected to me but then again I never studied medical anything.

I have and always will be too focused on business to think of that. "No! We can't. Then he will have you in that bed forever and not the good kind. Which reminds me, I want to bang him" She says and seriously, can't she keep her thoughts inside her head, just once.

I do care for her, of course, she is my best friend and I love her for that but sometimes she can be a bit strange, then again I think that is just who she is. "Fine, just this once but you are not doing anything with my nurse" I tell her in a warning tone

I really don't need her being with my nurse that way, because for one he's my nurse and it's just disgusting to think of that and two she's my best friend and I know she's going to hurt him. Lena has again become the one that is always playing with guys as well as girls.

After that heartbreak she suffered a couple of months ago she's never trusted anyone to have her heart and I feel for her because I know that she just wants to find love, like I did and I want her to find love and I want her to be happy. But, this is her life and she can do what she wants with it.

"All right, but I am taking you somewhere fun" She says as she wheels me to the door and opens it. The hallways are still the same and they are filled with people, whether that are doctors or patients or even nurses, and visitors. I've never really seen these hallways empty.

Then again I don't really go outside of my room that much. For obvious reasons. They do want to keep me safe because someone did try to kill me and someone did try to kill Alexander and everyone thinks that there is a possibility that they might try again someday.

But weeks have passed and each day it only brings us closer to the fact that the person is not trying again. "It better we worth it because my mom will probably yell at us and this time it won't be just be she's going to yell at, she's going to take her anger out on you too" I tell her as we go towards the elevator.

I have no idea where she's taking me but I'm just going to have to trust her. "Believe me, this is going to be worth it" Lena says and I really hope so because my mom's wrath is going to fall on us which I've never seen and I never want to see it.

The elevator goes down four levels and I wonder where we are going, I suppose I will know when we get out of the elevator as every hallways and wall is marked with where you are and what is ahead and behind you. The elevator door opens and I realize that we are in the basement?

"Lena, where are we going?" I ask her but she doesn't say anything. I look up at her to see that she's just looking in front of us of where she is taking me. "Lena!?" I call and she looks down at me. "Yes?" She asks with a kind smile on her face. "Where are you taking me?" I ask her.

She only laughs, slightly but I'm starting to worry. I think this is a basement. The walls are made out of stone and are as gray and dull. There are pipes everywhere it's really creepy to be down here. "Rose, when are you going to trust me?" She asks me and I give her a look that says are-you-serious? Kind of look.

"All right, I know I'm a bit insane sometimes and I've taken you to places like clubs but even I know that you can't go to any club now. Though, it would be nice to have a drink or two right about now, perhaps grind against a boy or two" She says.

"Lena, I hardly think this is the time for that nonsense" I tell her. I must remind myself that she likes to party while I really don't like it, I've already been to a couple of clubs and the last time it was not good. Well, I did meet Alexander that... morning.

It's so confusing to me and some of the memories I have of that night and morning aren't that good. Then again it could be because I was drinking and I was pretty angry and hurt. "There is always time for alcohol in your system. It's amazing and it's even better to have your brain blown out the same night by some random stranger that can make you feel good" She continues on with that.

Once Lena talks about drinking and having the time of her life in bed, there is no stopping her. "But, it would be nice to know where we are going? I'm pretty sure we can't be in this place, wherever we are" I tell her. I'm getting a bit worried of where we are going.

But, I have to trust Lena. She's my best friend and she's just trying to lighten my mood after being in the hospital for so long and I'm still in the hospital. She's been talking about it forever on how she wants me to get out of it and back into the life that I used to live and I agree to her on that.

This hospital is something that I'm eager to get out of. "Do you think that Alexander and I will ever get married?" I ask her. I've been wondering that for a long time, days even. With everything that has been going on, it's going to take me months to gain the ability to walk and stand without hurting.

And I'm not even sure in what shape he is in and how he will be in a couple of months. And then on top of that we will have our companies and face what is going on with them. My mom and his parents are the one that are in charge of them but I'm not allowed to know.

Even when I ask my mom about it, she shuts me down. And not only that we also have to plan for the wedding because I would want it to be the most perfect wedding ever because that is the man I love that I'm about to marry and I want to remember it forever.

"I don't know, it's going to be a hard year ahead of you and I think that it's not that good to add a marriage on top of that. For god's shake, you nearly died" She says and I hear sadness in her voice. I reach my hand to hold hers on the handle where she is pushing the wheelchair.

We are still going down some hallways and it's growing pretty dark in here as the lights grow fewer and fewer the longer that we go on. The question on where we are going is still on top of my mind. "That is even a greater reason to marry him as soon as possible" I tell her but she shakes her head and takes her hand off the handle and my hand falls back as I take it and bring it to my lap.

She sighs. "We're here" She tells me and stops in front of a door. It's an iron door and I stare at it in confusion. "And were are we, all I see is a door?" I ask her. I'm not sure where it is she is supposed to be taking me but I really have a bad feeling about this.

"It's what's behind the door" She tells me and walks over in front of me. She kneels down and sits on the floor. She takes both of my hands into hers. "Rose, I know that I've not always been the best friend that you need but I'm going to try harder" She says.

"Nonsense, Lena, you've been the bestest friend ever, remember?" I ask her and she smiles at me. I can see tears in her eyes and I'm worried that there is something wrong with her. Did she bring me here because she needs to talk? Talk because there is no place else to talk. "And for that I hope you forgive me" She says and her hand goes behind her back.

With her other hand she holds mine tightly as she brings her other hand back with a syringe in her hand and she stabs it into my arm and I feel my eyes start to drop. I look at her face with a puzzled look as I feel blurriness take over me as the darkness welcomes me and the last thing I see are Lena's eyes.
