Drift Queen (ON HOLD)

Chapter 13 Planning

Third pov

When morning came Han woke up to Elise trying to get up.

Her arm made it harder and he quickly put a hand on her back to keep her from falling back and causing unnecessary pain. "Hey, you okay?"

She shook her head and when he came over to her side of the bed he saw how pale she was. "My arm is killing me."

Han nodded and got the painkillers. "Here." He handed them to her along with some water.

She took them quickly before letting out a sigh. "I'm sorry for waking you."

He smiled softly and helped her up. "It's okay. How are you feeling?" They went into the living room/ kitchen (they're connected). "Well, my head is decent, my shoulder is okay and my ribs doesn't hurt unless i cough. My arm though, feels like it's been smashed against concrete." Han nodded to himself.

Elise watched him move around the kitchen getting them something to eat. "How are you?" He came back and gave her a sandwich. "Sore mostly, but other than that I'm fine."

We ate in silence. "What do we do now?" Han sighed and sat beside me on the couch. "I don't know yet."

"What if we give Takashi's uncle the money you got out of the side deals?" A flash of surprise crossed Han's face. "I know it won't help the fact that he and Takashi's pissed at you but it's a start."

Han looks like he really doesn't like the idea. "Who do you think can go in there and get out again?" I asked as he leaned back with a defeated look. "You. Maybe Sean. But DK would never let them hurt you.." He said the last bit quietly.

"Me?"

Why wouldn't he let them hurt me? Why would he care?

"Because he's in love with you." My breath left me. Takashi is in love with me? How the hell did I miss that??

Han chuckled as I most likely look as confused as I feel. "You can be quite... oblivious sunshine. He's like you since the first time we met during the race and... So have I."

Hearing him say it made it feel like a thousand butterflies in my stomach. It's an unfamiliar feeling for me. To be honest, dating has never really been on the table for me before...

"You don't have to say anything about it now, but it's the truth." He gently cupped my cheek. "I love you." The sincerity in his voice made my heart leap. Being careful with the broken arm I hug him.

Look at that, wonder what happens next ;) What will Takashi say about this? Vote and tell me what you think, comments keep me motivated :)
