But Do You Love Me?

chapter twenty-seven : All For You

*MICA'S PERSPECTIVE*

I woke up wrapped in Markus' warm embrace. His slightly heavy breathing fills the room as I feel his steady heartbeat against my cheek. His hospital bed isn't some big kingsized bed like it seems just cause i can fit in it. Its just a tiny bit bigger than a single; he's basically squashed.

I had the craziest dream last night. I dreamt that CJ told me Laurelle was in a coma and she may not wake up, and I was crying and everything!

Crazy Right?

I just want to know that Laurelle's okay because CJ and Jennifer we're meant to call me when they heard back from the doctors? I know she betrayed me and im angry as fuck but i still want to know shes okay. Once I know she's good, I'll go confront her; cause knowing she done that makes me angry!

Distracting me from my thoughts, Markus starts to wriggle around.

"Good Morning Beautiful, and good morning primcess" he yawns resting his hand on my belly, with his eyes closed

"How did you know we was awake?" I ask laughing a little looking up at him

"Causeeeee I've been awake for ages"

"How long?"

"About an hour and a half just thinking about stuff"

"Oh. What was you thinking about?"

"What's good with these 21 questions" he laughs

"I just don't want you worrying or thinking about anything that's going to stress you out. The quicker you can come home the better"

"I won't" he reasurses me. I know he was probably stressing but I'll leave it.

"Are you gonna go see Laurelle with Jen today. Apparently people can still hear you when their in comas"

Comas? The fucks he speaking about...

"What do you mean Coma" I ask struggling to sit up.

He helps me sit up and puts a pillow behind my back. "Laurelle's in a coma Meesh"

"Oh so it wasn't a dream" I say hanging my head low and playing with my nails

"What do you mean" he sits up to, staring at me attentively

"I thought i had a dream that CJ told me Laurelle was in a coma. But I guess it wasn't" I say, with tears forming

"It wasn't. I'm sorry" he says hugging me
"But meesh, why do you care so much. Like I understand she was your bestfriend, but she betrayed you and probably knew your mum was there"

"I know Markus, but somethings telling me that isn't the case. She was my bestfriend, i wanna hear what she has to say first. Like there has to be a reason. I don't don't know what to believe Markus. And I'm not saying I don't believe you... I'm just confused and-"

"Its cool, I understand." Markus says with reassuring eyes

"What time is it?"
