(Alex POV)
"Finally, I can go home." I mumble to myself as I change out of the sticky and smelly hospital gown I'd been wearing for the past 3 weeks. Yep, it took me 3 whole weeks to get better. Eliza and John helped a lot though. I'm so lucky to have them.
Sadly I still have to have the cast since bones don’t heal as quickly. But on the bright side I was told if I take it easy I can return to work. Though John and Eliza don’t seem to match my returning energy.
"I still think you should take time off. Your arm won't get better if you don't let it." Eliza says to me as we walk out of the hospital and to Johns car. I sigh. "It's a good thing that I can go back to work. I won't be alone all day because I'll be with you!" I explain.
“Well we can keep an eye on him in the office”, John says. Yes another one on the returning side! “But you have to be extra careful and relax while you’re in the office”, he finishes. Well- sorta return?
"Fine fine fine." I mumble and get in the back of the car. I really should decorate back here since no one else sits here. John always drives and Eliza always sits right next to him.
Assigned seats in elementary school but adults in a car edition. Maybe the teacher store will have seat decorations for cars. I start to laugh at my own thoughts which earns me concerned looks from John and Eliza.
"You ok?" Eliza asks in a hushed tone. Great, they probably think I'm crazy and now they'll want to break up with me. "I-I'm fine.." I stutter and cover my face with my hands. I'm such an idiot.
“You can tell us what’s wrong-“, she says in a gentle tone. “I was laughing at what I thought of ok?!”, I say before hiding my face again. Screwed up already. Good job.
"You didn't have to yell…" Eliza mumbles and faces the front again. "You don't think I'm crazy-?" I ask quieter. They both shake their head. "I just don't like being screamed at for no reason…" Eliza says. "I'm so sorry-" I tell her and rub her arm.
She calms down after a couple minutes. “I’m sorry-“, I apologize again, “I didn’t mean to get so worked up over nothing” “Its fine- I don’t think you realized your volume-“, she says.
"I didn't but I'm still sorry-" I tell her. John sighs. "I get that you wanna make her feel better but it won't work. Try next week, and buy chocolates so she doesn't kill me in the next 5 minutes." John says as a joke.
She shoots a glare at John and I laugh a bit. “Or both of you can watch Barbie movies with me when we get home”, Eliza says, “that’ll make it up.” And suddenly this conversation isn’t funny anymore (The dragon in diamond castle looks like chica from fnaf -E_musician)
"Eliza why must you torture us?" I whine playfully. "You yelled at me. You have to watch barbie movies with me." She says. The worst part is that I can't tell if she's being serious.
This is scary. I don't want to watch Barbie movies. I can’t pick up any sarcasm. Zero. Uh maybe I can find a way to get out of this?
"Maybe I'll stay with my dad tonight then." I say, trying to make it seem like a joke but it came out more serious than I anticipated. "No. You're stayed with us and we're watching Barbie movies." Eliza says sternly. "Yes ma'am…" I mumble. Eliza is scary-
I sit there quietly not wanting to make things worse on the drive home. Guess I have to accept my fate.
