Song of the chapter// All I need by Within Temptation
Abigail Devon's POV....
It turned out that Eugene had to stay in the hospital longer than we assumed. The doctor informed us that his head injury was more delicate than we thought and for that they had to do some test on him on regular basis due to which his stay was prolonged by a week.
When the news was delivered to Eugene, I wasn't a least bit surprised at his reaction. He was literally behaving like a five year old, constantly whining and demanding to be let out before the dusk as if he owned the hospital. This guy seriously needed to learn that he just couldn't order everyone around just because he was super rich. He couldn't control everything.
News about his accident spread like virus all over the school. All the girls literally cried for him for the reasons I just couldn't decipher. For a day and two, no one talked of anything except him. One may think that I was over exaggerating but I was not. Seriously, everywhere I went I just could hear only one word: Eugene. And that only made it worse. I was already finding myself missing him more than I should and hearing his name being spoken from everyone's mouth was not helping with the situation.
Since the incident, I always made sure to visit Eugene at least once a day and Selena always accompanied me sometimes even Jed. I was happy when Jed pushed aside his hatred for him and paid him a visit no matter how short it was.
I sensed that the problem between Jed and Selena was still not over but I didn't comment anything as I didn't find it the suitable situation. And, talking about Chris, it seemed as if he had made himself at home on the hospital. No matter at what time I visited, he was always there with Eugene even when he was sleeping. Chris just wouldn't leave his side which really moved my heart.
Eugene was getting better by the day although he suffered from severe headaches now and then but the doctor assured that its common seeing the wound on his head. In fact, they informed us that Eugene was lucky enough for it didn't cause any serious damage so there wasn't anything to be afraid of and I couldn't be more grateful.
"Hey, what's with the smile?" Scot asked. I looked at him from the dish that I was preparing to take to Eugene and smiled sheepishly, realizing I must have been smiling like a fool at nothing. But, hey I had a pretty good reason for it. Eugene was getting discharged tomorrow morning so that meant he would be able to return school very soon. Now, wasn't that a big reason to smile? Yes.
"Nothing, I am just happy."
Scot looked at me a second more before breaking out in a grin and peered over my shoulder to see the dish I was cooking. "That smells nice."
"Thanks." I replied, now taking out the already cooked dish and wrapping it securely in a silver paper.
"What? Am I not even getting a bite of this delicious, mouthwatering dish?"
"No, this is for someone else. But, don't you worry I have already separated a plate for you." I reached out and took out a plate from the side before handing it to him. He hastily grabbed the plate from my hand and didn't think twice before finishing the whole dish in less than a minute.
"Are you a pig?" I exclaimed, amused.
"For a dish as tasty as this, yes, I am." He replied, wiping the corner of his mouth with a tissue paper not a least bit embarrassed for eating like a beast.
"Why, thank you." I smiled, lifting an imaginary skirt up a little in a princess style, crossed one calf of my leg behind the other and briefly bend my knees, lowering my body in deference thus performing a curtsey act to which he responded by bowing down his head. I chuckled. "Now that you've eaten your share, you have to help me hide all the evidence of cooking 'cause if boss finds out that I cooked – in the kitchen – in his café – without his permission, he will chop off my head."
