Pure Innocence.

Chapter Five

Xander

She saved my life and then walks out. I mean she saved my life, waited for me to get out of surgery, talked to my siblings for hours without getting killed, has a five minute conversation with me, then once my family walks in she is gone. 

I know I shouldn't care this much but I way she looked so uncomfortable standing there when she came in worried me a little bit. Maybe I should look in the mirror? Do I look scary?

Stasia wakes me up out of my thoughts with hit to my leg. "Please pay attention to me Lexi I haven't seen you in years because you hit your head and the doctor was taking forever looking at it." with a laugh I pick her up and set her on my lap.

"Im sorry Stasia I was just thinking won't let it happen again." she sighs and lays down on top of me and within minutes I hear little snores. Dang that girl sleeps to much already.

All my brothers are either on the couch or chairs, just on theirs phones. For once they look like normal humans in public, wearing sweats for pj pants. This is a rare occurrence for our family to be in a public hospital and not the one that we own for our family and our employees. But I guess since the person that saved me didn't know that she didn't take me their. And how did my brothers not kill her I was in surgery for hours.

"How long with did wait out there with Aayda?" everyone looks at me confused. "I mean like how long was I in surgery for?"

All of they shoot me a smirk before Dante finally talks "you were in surgery for almost eight hours, she waited out there the whole time, we finally heard after an hour had already passed and look us about 30 minutes to get here and then we left  for about an hour before she texted me telling me you were awake."

"You have her number?" The words come out of my mouth before I ever realize what im saying. Why do I even care? I don't even know this girl. But then again she waited almost eight hours for me to get out of surgery just to have a five minute conversation and leave. So maybe im not the crazy one here? 

"Yeah we actually got along pretty well, I normally hate everyone but she didn't make me want  to rip my ears out." Why the fuck do I not like but like at the same time that they get along. But all I know if I hate that e has full access to talk to her anytime. Why am I being like this I don't even know she. "Stop overthinking about it, she probably just wanted to give you privacy with your family, that's normal, Xander." Fuck how can he read me so well no one except Lucas can do that. 

"Wait, where's Lucas?"

"Dad sent him out of town on a business trip, he booked a flight back as soon as he heard, I have to leave in about 20 minutes to pick him up from the airport." Theo says and I just nod my head.

It makes for sense now because no matter how much I love my siblings Lucas was always there first when I got cut, or stabbed, or shot. But maybe that was because he was always there when I happened. 

Lucas and me went on our first mission together and it went alright until we were loading up the car and started getting shot at. He got shot and I picked him up, put him the the back seat and went to our hospital and ever since we have never went on a mission without each other. So whenever I got hurt he was there and I was the same with him.

Thirty minutes later

Theo left ten minutes ago and im about to fall asleep. With Stasia on top of me she gives me just enough warmth to instantly pass out and so I do.

20 minutes later the door bursts open and I instantly shush because Stasia sturred  in my arms and I didn't want to wake her up. He runs up to me and flicks the gash on my forehead and when I wince in pain he kisses it. If people didn't know us they would think we were dating and I find  lot of fun in that when we are out in public. 

Once he is settled in he looks at me and a smirl grows on his face. And then he opens his mouth. "So whos the girl that found you?" he says wiggling with eye brows.

"Im not talking about this right now, ask Dante he is the one that got her number." It comes out way angrier than I intended and I don't know why.

"Im not into her chill out." Dante says but I find that hard to believe because she is just that beautiful.

I just close my eyes once again and trail off to sleep.

-

I wake up and see Ares in one of the hospital chairs still asleep, none of my other brothers, and Lucas watching the Lorax with Stasia in his lap but once she sees im awake she try's to run over to me but falls mid-way and doesn't cry but instead whips out her puppy dog eyes and holds out her arms signaling her wants me to pick her up, and like the sucker I am I get out of bed, pick her up, and go sit on the couch with her so I can see the tv better. 

After the movie is over the doctor comes in and tells me im free to go so I get my stuff and leave.

Once I get home I go to my room and sart the homework that is online that I missed. Still a junior in highschool and honestly it doesn't come that hard to me. I just stay on top of things and as long as papers aren't late I don't stress too much about them.

My phone buzzes and its my coach.

'Hey I heard what happened, get better and out on the ice asap.'

'Thanks Coach'

And with that I put down my phone and try to focus on homework... key word try. I just can't stop thinking about her.
