His Good Girl

Chapter Twenty Nine

Victoria's POV

  "I heard........ I heard everything when I was in the coma" I said, as I start to remember what I heard. 

They're like snippets of like a voice recorder of what they said. I remember hearing Jack's voice, Lincoln's, Mum and Dad and all the others. It all kind of floods into me and it's like a bunch words and sentences just bombard my mind and sometimes it becomes too much. 

"What do you mean?" Theo asked me, everyone frowning. 

"I think it's pretty obvious what she means" Jace replied, rolling his eyes. 

"Yeah, but like what she heard and meant," Theo said, explaining himself. Jace said something and that got everybody talking but, I don't pay attention to what they're saying. All I can think about is what I heard. 

I look at Lincoln but he looks lost in his mind. I decided to let what he said slide, but I would question him about it later. It hurts to know what he said came from his heart when I don't think or feel the same way. I stare at him and wonder what's going through his mind. I decide to not share what he said to everyone, especially Jack because what he said, is between me and him, not anyone else's. 

"Babe, do you want me to shut them up?" Jack said, instantly bringing me out of my thoughts with a bit of annoyance in his voice. His hazel eyes full of concern and annoyance. I nod and squeeze his hand. 

"SHUT UP!!" Jack roared, his eyes glinting in the light. I hold back a giggle as everyone jumps at his voice. Both of us smile as the others shoot daggers at us with their eyes. Mum and Dad roll their eyes before handing out the boxes of sushi. 

I lick my lips as I viciously grab the box out of my hand and open the lid. I place it on my lap and open the soy sauce and pour it on the lid. Mum hands out the chopsticks and I quickly take it. I open it and grab a sushi. I dip it into the soy sauce before shoving it into my mouth, wincing at the pain in my side. The pain starts to shoot up my side, but I ignore it as I feel happy in my stomach from the food. I finish my food in minutes, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand as I swallow the last piece. Everyone looks at me, their eyebrows raised. 

"What?" I ask, closing the lid of the sushi container and reaching to put it on the night table thing beside me. As I reach, a sharp pain shoots through my side and I hiss in pain. I drop the container and clutch onto my side. 

"Fuck!" I hiss as I move back to my original position on the bed. Jack puts his sushi down and rushes to my side to help me. 

"You okay?" He asks, his hand caressing my cheek as his eyes become full of concern. 

"Yeah..... I'm fine" I grunt as I adjust so that I'm comfortable. Jack helps and sits down beside me. 

"Next time, ask, alright?" He said, calmly. 

"You know I would like to do simple things like put a container on a table, too," I said, feeling a bit useless as I couldn't really do anything.

He chuckles before answering, "Not if it puts you in pain" he said, shaking his head. I sigh and decide that there is no point for me to argue with him. 

"Here, take these" Mum said, handing me a bottle of painkillers. I thank her before popping two in my mouth and swallowing it with some help from the water Dad handed me. 

I scrunch my nose, I hate pills. They are the absolute worse in the world. I don't understand why they don't make liquid medicine for people over the age of twelve. They need to understand that some people don't like pills and have trouble eating them and make some liquid ones instead of pills.
