Dangerous.

I walked into the flat, still supported by Delilah. She helped me over to the sofa, where I quickly laid down. " Look like he's not here " Delilah sighed throwing a blanket over me, " I don't care " I mumbled. She shook her head sternly " Are you in any pain? ", I let out a deep sigh and nodded.  I never liked to show a lot of emotion, but I was in pain. She gave me some aspirin, because I refused to take the pain medication that was prescribed to me. " So, you know how mum and dads anniversary dinner was this week? " Logan asked me, I let out a deep sigh and nodded. " Well, they've rescheduled it for another 2 weeks from today. They want the whole family together and Mel, you are apart of this family " he smiled, I rolled my eyes and smiled. The door suddenly opened, a family of three walked through it. Cole, Lacie and their daughter Rachel ( Who was only a year old and she was asleep ). Cole was carrying two separate vases, that were full of flowers. " Mel,these were sitting outside the door " Cole sighed, One of the vases had lilies, green ones, so Obviously those were from Michael ( At least he remembered my favorite color ). " Are there cards with them? " I asked quietly, Cole nodded walking toward me.  The card that was with the lilies read, _ You are my getaway, you are my favorite place. We put the world away, yeah we're so Disconnected.... Sorry I couldn't be there when you got back, but I'll see you soon - Milo _. I smirked as I let out a deep sigh, " Can you put those on the kitchen table? " I asked Cole. He nodded. The second vase, was an assortment of different types and colors of Flowers. First, the colors are what put me off the most, Red, Pink and Purple. Not that I had any problem with those colors, I didn't. I just didn't like them mixed together, it was just a mess. The card that was with them read, _ I'm sorry for what happened between us, but if we could try again, I swear I'd put you first. When I heard you had been shot, it broke my heart, Mel I was so scared you were gonna die. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to tell you just how sorry I was, I hope you can forgive me - Wayland _. I let out a loud groan, throwing the card on the coffee table ( What was wrong with him, we already talked this out. He needed to move on ). " What should I do with these? " Cole asked, I sighed " Get rid of them, I don't want 'em ". Everyone stared at me confused, " Who are they from? " Logan questioned. I sighed deeply again " Wayland ", Logan's face quickly turned red with rage. " That bastard, I told him, if he hurt you, then we weren't friends anymore! He thinks flowers will make up for what he did to you " Logan spat running his fingers through his messy blond hair, I rolled my eyes and let out a dry chuckle " Logan, he didn't hurt me. Because honestly I didn't like him, I was just staying over there with him, because I wanted to get over.... Milo. I've realized that, that's not possible... But Thanks for being a protective big brother ". He smiled while nodding, " Hey, what about me? " Cole questioned with a frown. I smiled " Aw, Cole you're a good big brother too ", he chuckled giving me a quick loving hug.

A few hours had gone by, Delilah, Logan and I were in the lounge, waiting for the pizza... Or at least that's what Logan said. " So, did it hurt? Getting shot, I mean. Like how did it feel? " Logan asked, I shrugged " I'm not all that sure. It didn't hurt as much as you'd think it would. It hurts more now, then it did when it first happened ". " How are you so calm about this, if it were me, I'd be demanding things and complaining non - stop " Delilah stated with a smile, I chuckled softly. " I'm going to get better Del, I can't sulk over this, you know I'm not like that... I just want pizza.... And a Iced caramel macchiato from Starbucks, can't I just have Starbucks today! " I exclaimed loudly. Causing Delilah and Logan to burst out into laughter, soon the sound of a phone rang through the flat. " That's mine " Delilah smiled as she got up and walked toward her bedroom, I could hear her arguing with someone. I looked over at Logan, " Did someone get my car? " I asked with a confused look on my face. He was texting someone on his phone, but he quickly looked up and smiled at me " Yeah, Ash brought it home that night ". I nodded slightly, " Hey guys, I've got to run to the office really quick, somebody screwed up the next story, that's supposed to run tomorrow " Delilah sighed grabbing her purse, I frowned " Don't leave me alone with my brother.. He won't take care of me! ". Delilah chuckled loudly as she gave Logan a quick peck on the lips " Mel, you'll be fine ", " No! Remember when I was 7 and he locked me in my bedroom when he was supposed to be babysitting me " I shouted at her as she quickly sped off through the door.   " Well now what are we supposed to do? " Logan asked me with a chuckle, " I sighed " I don't know, but I still want my Iced Caramel Macchiato, and I won't stop bugging you until I get it ". Logan chuckled as he rolled his eyes, soon another phone rang and I knew it was Logan's. I let out a deep frustrated sigh, as he stood up and answered it. He talked for a few minutes and then turned to me,  " Mel.... I have to go take care of something... it should only take 10, maybe 20 minutes. Will you be okay here by yourself? " he asked me. I nodded and smiled " I'll be fine, I'm just not going to move until one of you guys get back. I have my phone and the TV, so go take care of whatever you have too ", he nodded leaving quickly. Then I was left there, alone.
