It has been a day since Luca drove me to the hospital, I haven't told the doctors about what atlas has told me
Nor have I seen atlas since I gave him back to my father, He must be in the nanny's care
Sitting in the waiting room due to Abbie's doctors taking care of her
And not having the desire to bother my mother
'Heard from Elijah?' Luca asks as he sits in the chair next to me
'I haven't..'
'He is probably waiting for you to text him' Luca leans back into the chair, Sighing
'Why are you staying here?' I ask him
'I don't know..' Luca answers
I roll my eyes before being texted
'Thank you for getting my phone back..' I mention again to him as I look at the text that appeared
-Your mother is awake and requests to see you
'It's my dad, He said my mom wants to see me..'
'Are you going to go?'
'If I don't, It will just cause more trouble'
I stand and walk to my mother's room
Reaching it, I walk in to see her sitting slightly up
'How's Abbie?' She asks me once she notices me
I glare at her
'Like you care'
She looks at me shocked
'What?'
'I always knew that your drinking would almost kill one of us, And I was right' I snap at her
Her face drops as she begins to cry
Due to the movement of her crying, She begins to cry more due to the pain of her broken ribs and other issues
'Please Jaelyn, I am so sorry' She pleads, Screaming out in agony
Nurses run in, Injecting her with medicine and making me leave
I inform them of what atlas told me, They wrote it down and then left
'Let's go' Luca tells me as he links his arm with mine
I have a peace of mind
Abbie is doing okay and will live
That's all I need to know
****
Luca drops me off at the castle and allows me to go and get cleaned up, Brush my teeth and hair, Do natural makeup, and place on a sundress with heels
'You look lovely' Luca tells me as he takes my hand, Walking me down the staircase
'What are we going to do?' I ask
'Your dad requested that we be seen in public together for the media, Plus they cannot know that the accident happened' Luca groaned as he opened the car door for me
We attend a simple lunch together, Posing and allowing the media to take their dumb photos
After five hours of visiting random places while acting like we are on a date, Luca drops me off the castle and walks me inside
I look at my phone as Luca treats himself like a roommate, Laying on the couch while watching the news, I follow and sit by him
'There is already an article about us' I laugh about as I show him my phone
King of Spain was spotted on a date with princess Jaelyn of England
He begins laughing and I lay against him, Falling asleep with him shortly following
***
The next morning I woke up on the couch, My hair is messy and Luca is no longer by me
Yawning, I get up and look around the living area
'Luca?' I call out
I find Luca standing in front of the castle entrance, Doors wide open
I walk to him and stand beside him
'What?' I ask before looking at what he is staring at
There are loads of people standing out there, Flashing cameras and screaming voices
'Princess Jaelyn, Is it true that you two are dating?!'
'King Luca, Will you marry her?'
'King Luca! What will happen to Spain once you two marry?
'ENOUGH!' Luca shouted loudly, Causing the cameras and voices to fall silent
'You must not harass us! I do not care if you video us or whatever, But do not bang on this door at seven in the morning, Demanding answers to questions!' He states loudly before slamming the door shut and facing me
'Sorry, Did they wake you?'
'Uh no, Luca.. It's alright'
He smiles at me before grinning
'Wanna give them a show?' He asks with a wink
'Excuse me?'
'Come on, we "Accidentally" leave the curtains open and they just see just pretend to make out n shit' He laughs about it
'Why though?' I ask confused
'Your dad wants all of the attention on us, Not them for once'
'Whatever..' I say as I open some curtains
He picks me up and brings me to another living area which contains an open window from the side garden which is open to the public
I get thrown onto the sofa as we can slightly see flashes against the wall
He pretends like he is kissing me before backing away, Closing the curtains, and then bursting out into laughter
'Damn' He laughs
'Whatever' I whine with a slight blush covering my cheeks
Not even twenty minutes later, News articles were already out
King of Spain and England princess spotted passionately kissing
'Passionately' Luca mocks
'They are so dumb..'
I sigh as I send a text to Elijah finally
-Hi Elijah
'Ugh, I texted him!' I whine to Luca
'It will be fine!'
I lean against the wall, Worrying about Abbie before pushing the thought away, Carrying on with my day
