Heart to Heart

Chapter 15

Shailene's POV

We arrived around midnight, and when we got to the hospital we didn't get to see my mom, due to the visiting hours. So we went back to my house and get some rest.

The whole night Theo kept me in his embrace, which I am super greateful of. I'm still worried about my mom, even though the doctor assured me that night that nothing serious happened, just minor injuries, I'm still worried about her.

I woke up the next morning around 8, feeling better after all that resting. Even though it was really hard to sleep when you have someone you love in the hospital. But Theo was there helping me get some sleep, when I'm sure he's tired after the flight.

I walk into the kitchen, seeing Theo only in his boxers making breakfast. He looked handsome as ever, with his bed hair, I still can't get enough of him.

"Seeing anything you like?"

His voice startled me a bit from my thoughts. When I look at him, his grinning with two plates on his hands.

"What?" I asked, confused on what he's talking about.

"You were checking me out, babe." He said. He put the plates on the island and pull out the seats for us. "Breakfast?"

How I really want to wipe that smirk out of his face.

I sit on the chair and dig into the breakfast he made. All the fried bacon and eggs are not really healthy, but I can't just walk away from this delicious looking foods.

"FYI, I was so not checking you out," I said with my mouth full of food. I swallow first, then countinue, "and thank you for the breakfast, it's really good. I can get use to this actually."

He scoffs, "You're so welcome babe, but don't get you used to it, cause next time I'll be waiting in bed. Ouch!" That earns him my elbow on his ribs, "damn babe, and just so you know, I saw you gawking at my body."

"I did not!"

"Yes, you did!"

"Keep saying that, and you might not get any this week."

"What?! But Shai I was kidding!"

"But I wasn't gawking at you." I shrugged.

"Fine," he sighed and lean in to me, "now give me a kiss."

He looks so cute, leaning in while pouting. God, what's with that lips... so I move forward a bit and gave him a cute little peck on the lips.

After breakfast, we showered seperately, making it faster, since we're going back to the hospital to see my mom. He's getting ready in the guest room, 'cause god knows we can't be fast when we're getting ready in one room.

I put on a plain white t-shirt and black leggings, with a tiny ponytail and converse, I walk out of the room with my bag on my shoulder. Theo is already starting the car, so I sit on the seat beside the driver's.

"Ready?" He asked.

I gave him a smile, "Yes."

We parked in the basement of the hospital, and walk to the elevator hand in hand. Tanner had texted me, saying that he's going freshen' up, then come back to the hospital in late afternoon.

When we step into my mom's room, I see my mom in her bed talking to a female doctor, so immidiately I run towards her, and gave her a big hug, without squeezing her too much.

"Shai! Honey, I thought you're in England?"

"What? Mom? Seriously? You got in an accident! You think I won't be here to see you?! I was so worried!"

"Well," she shrugged, "it's just I hate to be the reason to end your holiday with Theo."

"Mom? Are you kidding? It's fine!" I scolded, while releasing her.

"Yes Mrs. Woodley, of course it's fine. I mean, your health is way important that anything." Theo assured her.

"And we didn't even do anything much though, we just hang aroung with Theo's family, which they're so amazing."

"Well good then," she squeezed my hand, "I'm glad that you had fun."

"How are you feeling, mom?"

"Well a bit sore here and there and the bruises are slightly better thanks to the pain killer that the doctor gave me. Yeah, pretty much that, I didn't have a headache like yesterday, which is a good thing."

"Oh, okay. That's good."

"Yeah, and Annie said that I can go home tomorrow or the day after, depends on how I do."

"Who's Annie, mom?"

"The nurse."

I chuckle to that, "Wow mom, you've been in the hospital for like what? A day? Or two? And you already doing the first name basis with the nurse. God, I miss you so much."

"Haha, miss you too dear."

"And do not ever scare me like that again!"

"Okay, sweetness." She gave me a kiss on the head, and laid back again on the bed. "I think I'm going to rest more, so I can go home sooner. You should go home, the nurse will take care of me."

"Are you sure? I mean, we don't really have plans today."

"It's fine, go. Have fun. Don't worry about me, the nurses here are so nice and kind, don't worry."

"Okaaay., just call us if you need anything okay. We're just a phone call away."

"Yes, I hear you. Just have fun with Theo. And Theo? Take care of her will you?"

"Of course." The said with a smile.

"Now shoo! I want to sleep!"

"Fine!" I gave her kisses on both cheeks, as well as Theo.

"I'm glad your mom's fine." Theo said once we're in the car. My hand is in his on his lap.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah, that means you'll be happier. And I love that." He said, looking at me for a bit than back on the road.

"Theo, can we just stay in all day? I'm not really in the mood of going out."

"Sure, we can call pizza, how's that sound?"

"Ugh, babe you can't keep giving me these bad food."

"Shai, pizza is not bad, delicious it is."

"Whatever, I'll find something else."

He chuckles, and put a sweet kiss on my knuckles. "I love you."

"Love you, too."

A/N

Hey I'm back, but just for a bit. I actually had try outs this week and the next, and while at it, I was thinking about this story. So I might as well update this for a bit. Maybe more, but not sure though, tomorrow I got biology and math tryouts. Please wish me good luck, because I'm in desperate need of one! And talk about fourtis in insurgent. Seriously, they can't get their hands of each other... ;D
