" Lucas ? Babe ? " The boy heard someone calling him, their voice distant and fuzzy. " Can you hear me ? "
" Oh my god did you just call him babe ? " Another voice added. " Coming from you, it's probably the funniest thing I have ever heard. "
" Shut up ! Can't you just stop annoying me for once ? Your best friend is fucking hurt ! "
" He's not really hurt just knocked out. There's no need to treat him like a baby."
Lucas suddenly felt a sharp pain on his cheek and jerked awake, looking around him with a confused gaze.
" Wh... What happened ? " He mumbled, the back of his head throbbing painfully. " What I am doing here ? "
" Oh my god your okay ! " Max screamed in answer, tackling him in a hug. " I thought... I almost thought you were dead ! "
She held him even thigher, wetting her boyfriend's jumper with tears.
" I'm fine. " Lucas smiled, feeling better all of the sudden. " I was just taking a nap on that very comfortable floor."
" Don't you dare joking with that you, idiot. " Max poked his arm playfully.
" You really scared the shit out of me ! "" Sorry about that then. " Lucas whispered slowly and rubbed her back in a comforting way. " I promise you that I'm absolutely fine. Where were you by the way ? ? "
" I don't want to talk about that. " She replied, avoiding his gaze. " Can we just go back to Mike's home and sleep ? I'm really exhausted."
Without waiting for an answer, Max got up and headed toward the front door.
Lucas opened his mouth to protest but Mike surprisingly put a hand on his shoulder to calm him down.
" Don't give her a hard time right now ok ? " The raven haired boy simply asked. " I'll tell you later about what happened if you like but for the moment let's just go home and take some rest. "
Lucas was still pretty worried about his girlfriend but he decided to listen to Mike anyway. The boy usually never talked about his enemy like this and probably had a very good reason to be so soft with her all of the sudden.
" Okay, I understand. " He just replied. " We're getting out of here so that Max can get some sleep but you better tell me what's up with her after that."
Mike just nodded and they followed Max down the slop, eager to get as far away as possible from that dreadful house.

" There you go. " Max finally stated and dropped a kiss on her boyfriend's cheek. " Hopefully you didn't hit your head too hard. I disinfected your cuts and in a couple of days, everything will have disappeared. "
" Thanks you." The boy replied, noticing that Max had a hard time keeping her eyes open. " You should probably get some sleep now. Just lay down, I'll make sure that no one disturbs you. "
Lucas got up to leave the room after Max had finally closed her eyes but was stopped in the middle of the way by a whisper.
" Please don't leave Stalker. " The red head mumbled, already barely conscious. " I almost lost you tonight, I don't want us to be separated anymore. "
Lucas hesitated, but came back to his girlfriend's sleeping bag and gently wrapped her in his arms, her head resting on his chest.
After a couple of minutes, Max was finally completely out and the boy carefully lifted her arms to leave the room.
Taking off his own jacket, he covered his girlfriend with it and kissed her forehead before joining Mike in the living room.
Something bad had happened to her in that house, even if he didn't really understand what and he absolutely needed answers.
I know this is kinda short but you guys wanted an update so here it is.
