Loving Lars

25. Loving The Next Day

*trigger warning: very brief mentioning of sa*

I slowly opened my eyes, instantly taking notice of how awful I felt. I didn't think I had drank that much last night, but my body ached all over. I was wracking my brain for any memory of last night but there was nothing.

I began to panic when I didn't recognise the room I was in.

God what happened to me last night?

Just as I was lifting myself out of the strange albeit comfy bed, the door clicked open.

I cowered back onto the bed, lifting the covers up to me as if that would do anything to protect me from a potential attacker.

"Sunshine? You awake?"

"Lars?" I felt my body relax. "What am I doing here?"

He came towards me and sat on the edge of the bed, handing me a glass of water and pain killer.

"You had quite an eventful night." He teased but I could tell that something was eating away at him.

"What happened? I don't remember." I said defeatedly.

Any hints of playfulness was wiped off his face, "your drink was spiked." He said angrily.

"Wha-" I was shocked at his revelation.

I didn't know how to feel, my mind instantly went to the worst case scenario. I tried to see if I could feel any discomfort in my downstairs area, but there was nothing which left me confused and thankful.

I felt tears well up in my eyes at the situation. Lars noticed and he instantly moved to comfort me. He wrapped his large tattooed arms around me and pulled me to his chest.

I tried to pull myself together as I didn't need to be crying in his arms again.

He kissed the top of my head before pulling away and softly saying, "nothing happened to you, you passed out in my arms and brought you here. You scared me to death though El."

I felt nervous under his intense gaze.

"Sorry about that." I joked.

Being in his arms makes everything feel better. I don't know what I would do had he not been here with me right now.

"How are you feeling?" He asked sincerely.

"Like I've been hit by a bus." I quipped.

He didn't look pleased about my light hearted comment.

"I feel awful."

He nodded.

"Are you going to take care of me, doc?" I smiled.

"Yes. Now lie back down." He said seriously.

"Okay, bossy." I said under my breath.

He sent me a look saying he heard me.

I got cosy in his bed, waiting for him to work his magic.

Lars Pov:

*flashback to last night*

I could feel Elza swaying slightly against me, but I brushed it off thinking it was just the alcohol. But before I could say anymore to Scott, she tugged on my jacket then went limp against me. Luckily I had a tight grip on her beforehand so she didn't go tumbling to the ground.

I picked her up and held her close to my chest, panicked at what had happened.

"What did you do?" I snarled at Scott.
