Stranger III -Raising Roman- (ON HOLD)

Chapter ¤ 13 -What Happened?-

•Kiley•

I woke up to feel my phone vibrating against the night stand. I sat up slightly still half sleep wondering who could be calling me this early. It was 3 a.m. Turning on the lamp and picking up my phone I saw a number I haven't seen before. I slid answer and put the phone up to my ear.

"Hello?" I answered, sleep still lacing my voice.

"Hi Mrs. Robinson sorry to disturb you. I know there's a time difference. I was calling to inform you that your husband has been admitted to the hospital here in Paris. I'm one of the nurses that needed to notify you since your his only family."

My eyes widened at the news I was just being informed about. I thought that I wasn't hearing correctly since I wasn't fully awake. Why was Dre in the hospital?

"What? What happened to him?"

"We know that he was in an accident. Some men robbed him and his driver along with his bodyguard. We don't know the whole story yet since he's still unconscious. When he wakes up we'll have to ask him what else it is that happened but only if he remembers." she explained. I sighed and placed my head into the palm of my hand.

"Ok. Thank you. Can you call me as soon as he wakes up please? I just want to hear his voice."

"Yes I will. He'll be fine Mrs. Robinson." she replied, trying to reassure me.

"Thank you."

"Your welcome. Good bye."

I ended the call and sat my phone down into my lap. I didn't understand how this could've happened to him especially overseas. Who would want to hurt him? He's never done anything intentionally unless I don't know about it. But I know Dre isn't that type of person. Something crazy is always happening to us and I can never find a reason to even explain why. If anything you would think if someone wanted to mess with him they would come after me. I honestly wanted to cry but I had to be strong.

I threw the covers off of myself and slowly got out of the bed. I made my way over to Roman's crib and saw he was still sound asleep. I leaned down and kissed his cheek gently before walking to the bathroom. I closed the door behind me and turned on the light. I did my business then washed my hands. I dried my hands off and stood in front of the mirror. I looked at myself for a few minutes before sighing and walking out and back into my room.

I knew I wasn't gonna be able to go back to sleep since I knew Dre was laid up in a hospital bed across the world. I guess I would stay up, get a snack and watch tv until I went back to sleep.

Opening my door and trying to walk quietly downstairs I heard talking coming from the living room, which was odd because I didn't think Rome was up. I fixed my shirt before walking down the last step and saw Rome on the couch talking on the phone. I guess he was having a late night bootycall. I didn't want to be nosy so I made my way to the kitchen. I opened up the fridge and looked through it to see what I wanted. I pulled out a bowl of sliced fresh pineapples and some cool whip. I got a smaller bowl and put a few slices into it then grabbed a spoon and put two big scoops of cool whip on top. I put the rest of the things back up when I saw Rome staring at me.

"God you scared me." I said, holding my chest and leaning back into the counter. He chuckled and slid his phone into his sweats pocket.

"My bad. Did I wake you?"

"Nah. I got a phone call about Dre so I'm up for the rest of the morning." I explained, picking up a piece of pineapple and eating it. "Want some?"

"Nah." Rome smirked. "I saw on the news what happened to him. I was gonna tell you but I knew you were sleep."

I nodded and chewed the rest of my fruit before responding. "I knew it would be on there. They report anything to do with celebrities now days."
