Love in Unexpected Places

Chapter 26

Evelin left without seeing Adrian going home and sleeping soundly even if it wasn't her bed she was tired enough that she didn't care. Evelin slept in on Saturday, enjoying the restful sleep. She woke up with only a few remnants of yesterdays head ache.

            She was able to be back in her cabin Saturday night and went back to sleep. Dante was over joyed to have company again, cuddling against Evelin who was going to sleep.   Lucilia heard about Kelly's death, and called Evelin. Unaware that Evelin had been in the accident.

            Evelin answered the phone, groggy from sleeping. “Evelin. Oh god. Do you remember Kelly Landry? She died yesterday.” Lucilia said near to crying again.

            “Yes, I know.”

            “I can't believe she flipped her jeep and decapitated herself. She used to be such a good driver. I guess she works at twenty four hour bar in Sugarbrook  and was coming home from and smashed another car. Was rushing home to get to an early class at community college. I guess both cars are totaled.

            Evelin didn't hear much after decapitated. “She was decapitated. Holly shit.” Evelin cursed

            “I know. What a horrible way to die.” Lucilia said grievingly. The phone had an awkward silence. Lucilia figured she didn't know what to say. So she changed the subject, "Where were you yesterday? You wern't at school. I tried to call you but couldn't get an answer."

            "I was in the car accident?" Evelin said quietly worried about Lucilia's response.

            "Oh god, Evelin are you okay?"

            "I broke my Wrist and Adrian broke his arm and sprained his ankle."

            "Thats who was driving, Adrian?"

            "Yes,"

            "What happened?" Lucilia asked.

Evelin told Lucilia about the terrifying crash and the hospital visit.

            "You sound tired. I'll let you go to sleep." Lucila said sick of talking.

Evelin was grateful she curled up and slept.

            Adrian spent his whole weekend in bed. He wasn't allowed to walk off crutches, so he opted to just stay in bed. He slept some but spent much of his time resenting the death of the girl who was killed in the crash. Wishing he had done something different. Feeling incredibly weak.

            Thomas and Audrey checked on him constantly , they worried he was becoming depressed. Thomas was informed that Adrian totaled his Range Rover and that it would be replaced.          Audrey left Sunday going back on tour, she loved on her children before leaving. Regretting that she would be gone so long.

            Alex and Lexus spent the weekend with there parents and separately checked on there injured brother. They had no romantic encounters, they were just siblings ,for that weekend.

            Everyone went to school come Monday. Adrian went on crutches needing assistance from Lexus to get into her Infinity with only one arm.

            Evelin got picked up by Lucilia Monday morning. Adrian's tire tracks from his plentiful visits allowed the truck to get down the drive way. Because even though Evelin's arms were fine she really had no interest in hiking with a broken wrist.

            Alba hopped out of the truck as Evelin walked out the door. She didn't have her back bag because it had been left in Adrian's car after the crash.

            "I don't think I've been down her since last summer. It's gorgeous in the snow." Alba said referring to the snow capped cabin.

            "It only looks like that because its so cold." Evelin said walking to the truck. Alba skipped ahead opening the trucks door for Evelin.

            "You feeling any better?" Lucilia asked once Evelin and Alba were in the car and belted in.

            "I never said I felt bad." Evelin countered.

            "Know but you sounded like you might die on the phone."

Evelin ruled her eyes at the exaggeration. She fooled with the radio and go it to play country music. The only thing that would come in. Evelin was happy to be at school, she stepping out the truck and walked confidently to school.
