Chapter 51

Ellie's P.O.V   (Funny story time -   Not gonna lie took me a while  to write 'Ellie's P.O.V' 😂😂 that's a bit embarrassing but I kept hitting the wrong button so then it was a question mark then I hit 'b' twice and then 'g' instead of a 'V' 😂😂)

"Y-yes? Is everything okay? Please tell me that Rachel is okay, I heard she was awake please tell me nothing is wrong" I say all in one breath. I was worrying when she stopped me but then what she said next make me relax. Everything was fine, I was just overthinking it.

"Clam down dear, nothing is wrong I promise, I was just going to tell you that Rachel has awoken but you seemed to have already known about that, I'm assuming Lucas phoned you. Anyway I have checked and Rachel is all good she just needs to rest and build her strength up a bit, the bullet wound is healing up nicely" she says, I sigh in relief and give her a big hug before thanking her and then rushing into the room.

Rachel was sitting in the bed with Lucas sitting beside her on the chair where he has spent hours and hours on for the past week. A smile spread across my face once again, my sister was okay.

"Rachel! I'm so glad your alright, I was so worried I'm so sorry I didn't protect you" I say, I make my way over beside her and sit down at the other chair that I have been accompanying for the past week. I reach out to give her a hug, making sure to go slowly and carefully not want to hurt her.

"It's okay El, don't be silly you couldn't have done anything" she says wrapping her arms around me. I give her a gentle squeeze

"I was so scared Rach, I thought you were gone and then the doctor told me that you would be okay. I wanted to believe her I really did but a part of me was doubting it cause you had been unconscious for so long and... and a part of me feels guilty that I didn't get to push you out of the way, I was standing right beside you. I wish it were me in your place right now"  I sob, I didn't even realise I was crying until I felt her wipe my tears away

"Oh El, don't ever say that! It's not your fault you couldn't have saw it coming in time and I don't blame you so don't blame yourself, you were not the one to pull the trigger! And I'm glad it's me in this position because I would lose my mind if it were you" she says sternly then continues "heads would roll" she laughs making me smile a little. She always finds a way to brighten up my mood and make the situation better. "literally I would kill anyone who hurts you. You've been though so much so I'm glad your not the one in this position" she says and then kisses my check. I love her, she's the absolute best! I would do anything for her... I mean anything!

"Yeah Ellie don't blame yourself, the only people who is at fault are the silly fuckers who done it and they are all paying for this, and if it were my choice not that I would want it to happen but I would gladly take both of your places if this were to ever happen again" Lucas says, I swear I have the best friends anyone could ever ask for!

"I love yous both so much" I say happily

"I loves yous both too" Rachel says

"Me too!" Lucas says

"I love you Ellie" a new voice says, I know straight away who it is before I even saw his face. I turn around to see Kai standing there by the door

"What about me?" Lucas asks

"I'm not gay" Kai chuckles  (nothing wrong with being gay!!! Don't be ashamed or embarrassed, stand up for what you love and be with who you love! Do what makes you happy your not here to please other people!)

"Neither am I but you can love me as a friend" Lucas states

"That still sounds gay, 'ohh I love you man" Kai laughs, putting on a girls voice. Me and Rachel both laugh at the both of theirs silliness. God I have missed her laugh so much!

"I've missed you so much Rachel" I say

"I know, I've missed you to. I heard Kai shouting at you and Lucas once. He's right, yous both should of been taken care of yourselves!" She says sternly

"I know I'm sorry but I was just too worried" I say

"I don't want it to happen again" she says given me a pointed look. "Never stop looking after yourself Ellie I don't know what I'd do if I woke up to find out that you were really sick because you weren't taking care of yourself due to being worried about me" she says

"Okay mum" I laugh

"I'm being serious!" She says

"So am I, I won't do it again. Promise" I assure her

"You better not" She warns

It's been a few hours now since Rachel woke up, I haven't left her side. The doctor has done some tests and she will be able to leave tomorrow but she has to be on bed rest. Lucas is looking a lot better he also hasn't left her side. Kai gave him a week off so he's going to take Rachel away on a trip to help her relax. It's really cute actually, he's taking her to some log cabin out in the woods I've seen a photo and it's so pretty. I wish I was going, it looks so relaxing and romantic. Lucas is a great guy I have no doubt about it, he's great for Rachel. I can see how much this hurt him when she was unconscious. There really is such thing as love at first sight, because they have only known each other for, not even 2 months. He really cares about her and I'm so happy that both my best friends  are happy.

Rachel's P.O.V

It's been two days now since I've woken up, I can't believe I was unconscious for a week. I feel fine, sometimes I get a bit light headed and feel sore but other than that I'm okay. Lucas has taken me away to some cute log cabin to help me clear my mind and relax. It's so pretty and I still can't believe we are here. It's like something straight out of a movie. It looks massive but there's only one bedroom in it. That's fine though because me and Lucas share room anyways.

We have been here for two days, got three more to go. I don't want to leave. I miss Ellie so much but if I had a choice I'd stay here, she can come visit and I'd obviously go visit her. But Lucas has to go back to work.

I've been getting awful worried about Lucas working in a Mafia, me being shoot has really made me open up my eyes and see just how dangerous it is. What if Lucas gets shot or worse? I don't want him being hurt and I don't know what I'd do, I wish he could leave. I have spoken to him about it but he says that the only way out of the Mafia is death and I definitely don't want that! He also said that he doesn't want to leave anyway because he loves it and the adrenaline he gets from the jobs. He's crazy!

But he's also happy and Kai is his best friend, they are like brothers so I can't imagine him wanting to leave the Mafia. I just wish it wasn't so dangerous!

I wiped the sweat of my forehead and tried to cool myself down by blowing up on my face. I could feel how hot my face was, I could only imagine how red my cheeks are right now. This jacuzzi is amazing and all that but I can't cope with the heat!

"You look really hot" Lucas says

"I am" I say and blow on my face again this time fanning myself with my hands as well

"Oh I know you are" he winks, I feel my cheeks become even redder if that even possible

"I meant I am really warm" I say

"Yeah so did I, I can see you sweating that's why I said I know you are" He says and then continues "why what did you think I meant?" He asks in a teasing manner

"Uh n-nothing" I lie, I was so embarrassed right now

He smirks at me "You didn't think I mean you were hot as in good looking hot did you?" He laughs, I look away and hear his laughter increase "babe I'm joking" he chuckles and brings my head to face him once again with his hand. He leans in slowly, I can feel his warm breath on my face before he lightly pecks my lips. He pecks them again and again before I have had enough and kiss him forcefully. He's such a tease!

He kisses me back with as much force as I have, fighting for dominance. I finally give in and let him take over, I can feel him smirk.

"Jerk" I mumble into the kiss, he immediately pulls away

"What did you call me?" He asks, I could tell he's not actually upset about what said. He's in a good mood and is just trying to be a wind up

"I never said anything" I lie giving him an innocent smile

"Uh huh, you know I don't like kissing lairs" he says leaning away from me

"Really? What about jokers?" I ask

"Hmm it depends how good a kisser they are"

"Amazing" I say and lean in closer

"I'll make an exception just this once" he smiles and then kisses me again
