Chapter 28: Will Jason find out her truth?
***********************
Ella opened her eyes. She found herself in a hospital bed in a hospital room. Jason was standing beside her. He was busy with his phone calls. He didn't notice that she was awake. Suddenly, she tried to get up from the bed, but when she tried to leave the room the IV line pulled her back. and the injection pricked the tissues of her hand, "Aah..." She shouted out of pain.
Jason quickly dug his phone back into his pocket when he heard her voice. He carefully made her sleep on the bed again but get up in the sitting position
"I need to go..." Ella requested.
"You don't. Stay like this. You need more rest," Jason ordered.
"But, what about...." Ella spoke but Jason intruded on her, "Nobody knows. They only know that you're with me at our house."
Ella felt a sudden strike in her heart. She was sad but also happy to see that Jason kept her priorities in mind. She smiled a little and asked, "How long was I sleeping?"
"It's eight in the night," Jason replied.
"WHAT!" Ella was shocked. She shouted. She then started to count using her fingers. Jason chuckled looking at her. She looked cute to him.
"It's fifteen," He said confidently. "You're still weak at maths."
After what he said, Ella didn't make any eye contact with him but replied, "Yeah! That fifteen. And I am not weak at maths, I'm just slow."
"Yeah! Yeah! I know your slow speed," Jason was teasing her.
Suddenly, Ella was reminded of her mother, "How's mother?" she asked.
"Doctor said, her condition isn't getting worse but also, she isn't getting better," Jason replied coming back to his serious tone.
"Oh god! I hope she recovers," Ella's voice was enough to make Jason understand that she was stressed.
"Don't worry she'll be fine soon," Jason said to cheer her up.
"Jason! Thank you for saving me! I know I was acting stupid at that time and it's too much embarrassing to recall that scene but still, you helped me in my worst. Thank you for saving me again," this time, Ella's tranquil vibe just gave Jason goosebumps all over his body. Her melting voice made him fall for her already.
Suddenly, the room was silenced and the tension between them increased. The moment was so peaceful that Jason could hear his watch clicking. They both knew that it was awkward but somewhere they wanted to stay like this. They both looked into their eyes and were lost somewhere in the ocean of love.
"How much time is left to get discharged?" Ella asked. She pointed to that IV bag but she still was looking at him "I can delay it," Jason replied. They were having goosebumps like hell. Their gut was tickling with butterflies at that same time, they were nervous but they wanted to be in this state and wanted to continue.
Jason came closer to her. As Ella was sitting, she made her head up to a limit so that she could see him clearly. "Nobody knows we're here," He said.
"Okay," Ella replied confusingly as he told her this thing before too.
"And curtains are also drawn. So, there's no chance nobody can disturb us," Jason replied. His voice made Ella scared.
"What do you want?" Ella replied.
"I can't explain by telling," Jason said.
"Why?" She asked.
Jason sat and leaned towards her. He took support by his hand by keeping them just near her thighs. They were slightly touching her thighs. Even though she was wearing a pant, but his touch was making her crave more for desire. She leaned back as he was too much close. He came in more close.
