Chapter 96 - NINETY SIX
- HAZEL -
I’m cramped up on his bed with my arms around my tummy. My stomach still hurts really bad. The ache is less than it was before but it’s nearly unbearable.
My eyes water as I try to hide the ache. Why didn’t Carol give me a flash warning that having so much of that can give stomach ache? Now I wish I never went.
Killian walks to me and sits on his bed, by my side. A hand meets my forehead then the back of his palm rests on my neck. "You have a fever." Killian’s caring tone says. "I’ll be right back with something I think can calm it down." He stands up. "Taken anything within the last few hours that could be a potential threat for overdose if I give you a drug?" He asks.
I nod my head. "I don’t know what I had but I’ve taken a pill." My knees fold closer to my head. "Maybe I should wait for a few hours." I add. I can’t see his face but from the silence, I can already tell what he looks like. A smile forms on my face. "Killian, I’ll be fine. I just had too much concoction to drink."
"That’s not convincing." He says. My mouth widens to say something but I hear the door jam shut. Killian is already gone.
I sigh and shut my eyes tight. I wish he stayed. I really want him here with me. I wipe the tears begging to roll down my face away with my finger and sob. I had fun last night, that’s for sure. Maybe my dorm room will be buzzing with people who want to see me by next tomorrow.
The thought makes me giggle. Sadly, I have no photos to share with the girls back home.
The door comes open and someone waltz in. Despite it being just the two of us at home, if it weren’t so, I won’t have to look to know he’s here, his cologne filled the room the moment he came in. "You’re back." I breath, relieved.
"Of course I am. Went to grab a delivery."
This makes my smile widen. "I thought you were pissed at me and left me."
