Rehab

Chapter Six

The next day rolled around and Alexia and Jay spent it their usual way, coffee breakfast stretching massaging and exercises. Alexia was managing well and was clearly excited for tonight's game hoping her team mates could finish the group stages with a win.
The day was spent with laughter as it usually was, Jay cracking jokes and Alexia rolling her eyes and laughing anyway. The pair had developed a deep bond already and it was good to see from the outside with a few close people of Alexia already noticing the shift in her mood as of recent.

While Alexia showered after the days events, Jay went to the shops to surprise Alexia with tonight's Spanish dish watching the game.
An hour later and Jay had not returned her phone going straight to voicemail.
Jay wasn't answering for a reason.

As Jay stepped into her car she had an aura about her she had thoroughly enjoyed her day with Alexia and could feel them getting closer by the day, she enjoyed her work and was glad to assist the Spanish midfielder with her rehab and hopefully could help get her back to her best and watch her journey again as a fan.
Driving down the road everything seemed fine, Jay always drove a bit over the speed limit and regularly sung to her music as loud as she could, as she approached a junction she put her foot on the brake changing down gears to slow the vehicle down. Her foot went flat to the floor, her brakes not making any difference to the speed of the vehicle, Jay didn't have time to do much else as her car continued down hill at a rapid pace. Pulling her handbrake up at that speed on that decline would have flipped her over. Coming closer to the cars that were now at a stop at the lights whilst other oncoming traffic was moving across as it was their right of way. She had to take the lowest risk possible and put her own car into a wall, so no one else but herself would be hurt.
She braced as she made impact a searing pain through her face and then everything went dark.
Coming around a torch was being shone in her eyes and flashing lights were everywhere. Many questions being thrown at her in Spanish, she could taste blood she could see blood. It took a moment but she could feel and see her moving her fingers and toes so she knew she was okay on that front. Being put on a stretcher now a searing pain repeatedly striking her through the face, her nose felt like it had been obliterated and she knew she had an open wound on her forehead due to the warmth there.
The police now inspecting her car after she told them her breaks weren't working so she had to crash on purpose. Giving a negative breath sample and being allowed to leave in the ambulance with the emergency team.
Once sat inside the hospital she looked across at the clock realising she left Alexias almost 2 hours ago, her phone in her pocket still she hadn't even thought to let anyone know where she is.

Alexia - are you okay?
Alexia - Jay you're worrying me?
Alexia - did I do something wrong?

Followed by several missed calls.

Alexia picks her phone up at a violent speed when it starts ringing, "Jay? Are you okay?".
"I'm fine don't worry but I've had an accident. You don't need to come but I know you'll be worried and no you haven't done anything wrong. But obviously I haven't got your dinner".
"An accident? Where are you?".
"I'm at the hospital".
"The hospital? What happened?".
"I crashed my car, my brakes wouldn't work..".
"Text me your location mi amor I will get mama to come and drop me off".
"Ale I'm fine".
"Nonsense I'm coming now text me please".

A little over half n hour later Alexia limped into the room with her mother and sister in tow, gasping at the sight of Jay who gave them a big toothy grin and a wave to not worry them.
Eli rushed over embracing her straight away.
Alexia stood back at the sight of her two black eyes a deep cut on her head and a very broken nose.
"Am I still gorgeous?".
"Idiota, si!" Alexia couldn't help but laugh at Jays never ending childish ways.

They were abruptly interrupted with police making their way into the room.
"Miss Jones we have a couple of questions to ask you".
"We'll wait outside" Alexia whispered.
"No no it's fine" Jay replied smiling.
"Do you have any enemies?".
"Only ones that are in prison in England why?".
"Your brake line was cut Miss Jones, someone did this on purpose".
"What?".
"Perdon?" Echoed Alexia.
"Well shit.." Jay said with a pale look coming across her face.
"I'm not sure I can help, but someone did slash my tires two days ago as well. There is probably cctv around the apartment area. I'll give you the address to check it out".
"Si gracias, for now I would suggest you stay with someone just to keep yourself safe" and with that they left to go and make their enquiries.
