Scarlet's POV .
" Ugh , why am I hurting everywhere "- I mumbled to myself as I sat up .
I was clean and had a few bandages ; wait I can't find some of my scars . How did they disappear . What am I thinking .
It's good because I want to forget everything about my dad and Margaret .
I heard a knock and watched as a petite nurse with brunette hair come in .
" Wonderful , you are awake ! " - She sang while checking my vitals before leaving .
" Oh yeah and you have visitors "- she continued poking her head back in .
" Visitors ? " - I asked .
" Yes , five teenagers ! "- she replied .
I smiled as I gave my consent for them to come in .
" Scarlet ! "- I heard Kelvin scream while hugging me tight .
" You are kind of suffocating me , "- I whispered .
" Sorry about that , "- he said as he finally let me go .
" And owwww "- I playfully hit him in the chest . " I'm still in pain "- I said in-between seriousness and humor .
" I'm sorry ! " - he said in between laughs .
" Hey guys! " - I said with an awkward wave .
I was immediately engulfed in another hug .
" We are so sorry for the stupid silent treatment that day "- Kelvin mumbled on my neck .
" Don't worry about it plus I would have ripped Margaret's head off if she had done anything to any of you guys , " - I said with anger .
I took a glance at Mark who was leaning on the wall and immediately looked away as I felt butterflies explode in my tummy .
I was able to breathe again after seconds of losing my breath ; what's happening to me ?
" Anyway , we brought you a fruit basket ! " - Beatrice said as she placed it on my lap .
" Goodie ! "- I sang as I bit into an apple .
" Why are you looking at me like that ? "- I asked and took another bite into it .
" We were kind of expecting a thank you , "- Maya said with a chuckle .
" So did you guys bring any water because I've been thirsty for a while "- I said as I felt a patchy throat .
I saw them shake their heads with chuckles.
" Well .. you were kind of gone for two and a half months " - Maya said with a sad smile .
" Oh "- I can't believe Margaret starved me for so long .
" But no need to worry about that now , we are together again "- Jared finally joined in .
" Yeah , I'm happy to be with you all "- I said with a smile .
I was peeling a banana when someone handed me a bottle of water , I felt tingles so I turned and looked at the familiar dimpled smile I had missed .
" Thanks , "- I mumbled as I opened the cup to take a gulp .
Now that was refreshing !
" So when are you coming back home ? "- Kelvin asked with a pouted lip .
" They said I would be home in a week so don't miss me too much guys , "- I said as I playfully yet a little painfully slapped on Kelvin's pouted lip .
" Ouch ! "- he yelled and cooed his lips .
Everyone had laughs as Kelvin continued to suffer with his lips.
**********
After catching up with them for over three hours , we finally said our good byes before they left .
I laid back down on the bed as I decided to rest for while .
I felt someone lips kiss my cheek and immediately jolted my eyes as I tried to bite the person's lips off .
" Calm down ! "- I heard a familiar voice .
" Mark ? , I thought you were all gone ? "- I asked as I touched the spot he kissed .
" I wanted to be with you alone , "- he said as he sat by my bed .
"Ok , so how long have you been here ? "- I asked .
" A while to be able to hang balloons and teddy bears "- he said as I gawked at my surroundings . My room was covered in violet balloons with cute messages of getting well soon plus lovely teddy bears and flowers to brighten the whole place up .
" You didn't have to, "- I said as I took a cream coloured bear holding up a red heart .
" Anything for you , "- he said as he shifted more to my side ; I moved a bit so we could both share the bed .
I later sat there in awkward silence as I felt Mark's gaze on me .
" So how is Kelsy ? "- I asked to stop the awkward silence .
" Oh , she's fine . Because of her we had to walk around in this clothes till this evening before coming out of the house , "- he said with a chuckle .
" Why would you guys hide coming to visit me away from her " - I said with a scoff .
" I didn't want her to trouble you "- he simply said as he gently pushed me down as he laid down by my side .
" Just sleep ,"- he whispered in my ear .
" But - I "- he cut me off with his hand on my mouth .
" Just sleep , "- I gasped and squeezed my eyes shut to make me feel sleep .
" But I'm not feeling comfortable with you lying next to me on this small bed , "- I rambled as he sat up to look at me .
I bit the insides of my cheeks as I waited impatiently for him to speak .
He laid back down as he he placed his head on my neck and pulled me even closer to his side .
" Just sleep "- he repeated as I felt a smirk against my neck .
I giggled as I let myself fall asleep beside him shifting away a bit .
