Serena POV
The day finally ended how happy was I to have been able to go home, to my surprise Jerry has calmed down lately and he has stopped drinking for a while so it felt like I could actually live again. I walked home by myself while I was walking down the side walk I saw little children playing in the street with one another, two of them were little girls one with long blonde hair and the other with long brown hair. It once again made me think of Angie and myself when we still used to play together every day after school. It made me miss her so much at that moment.
Then suddenly the idea of cooking popped into my head, what was I going to make for dinner? I took the next turn off and went to the grocery store quickly. I was in the mood for something with mince so I grabbed a little packet of it and went to the till. When I got to the till an old lady was sitting there and she said "good afternoon my dear will this be all?" I looked at her with a smile and replied " yes thank you." she quickly rang it all up and I left store as I walked out there was a news stand just outside the store I looked at the stand deciding weather or weather not to take one. I ended up taking one anyway to see what has been going on in the world since I've been in hospital.
I got to my front porch I was so scared to go in, because I wouldn't know what I would find. When I entered at least everything was still normal Jerry still seemed to be him old self and I was happy about that. My mind kept trailing off to Jed but I knew I had have to forget about him and move on to work towards my future. Besides next year I would be moving to London and Jed would be staying here in Miami. So there is no point of even starting a relationship in my senior year.
That evening had passed, it was 2 o'clock in the morning when my phone had vibrated so loud I couldn't have ignored it even if I wanted too. It was my sister Angie, she apologized for phoning so early but it had been late afternoon where they had been. She had heard I was in hospital for a really bad fall I had. I had told her that I am fine now she had not worry about me any further.
I had stopped stressing about the whole Jerry situation, because all has been starting to go well again he had backed off and started giving me my space again.
Jerry POV
I had needed her to trust me again and to recover before there were too many questions that are asked and that is something I did not want at all. I had put the drinking aside, but only for now. She will soon realize she does need me and that she wants to be with me as much as I want to be with her, even if I have to open her eyes for her.
I came down stairs and smelled the food she was cooking, I came in and said "wow that smells amazing." She looked at me with a smile. What really does concern me is that boy that had been with her in the hospital, who he is and what is he of her. So I decided to ask her about him, "so who was that boy with you in the hospital?" she looked at me and said "nobody he shouldn't have been there, we won't be seeing him anytime soon again." I was quite pleased with the response I didn't need people to come and interfere with my plans or into our situation.
Jed POV
I do not understand what had happened one moment we telling each other we love each other and the next moment she is ignoring me like I do not exist. I am the one that supposed to be angry with her not the other way around. She is the one that cannot just accept the fact that I love her, so why am I even trying so hard for her to talk to me.
When I think about what I just said I must say I do sound a bit selfish. I wondered what had really happened to her, because it couldn't have just been a fall I guess I am going to have to be patient with this one.
