Molly's POV
"Ashton," I whisper, poking his arm repeatedly.
"What?" He grumbles, sitting up, rubbing his eyes, "What's up, Molly?"
"Will you go with me to go see Felix?" I ask, "Please?" He sighs and nods, getting up from his spot on the couch. I throw the covers off of my body and start climbing out of the hospital bed. I reach for the IV in my arm and start to pull on the tape holding it down.
"Don't you dare pull that IV out young lady," Ashton's warns me. I huff and roll my eyes, but listen. I grab the thing the IV is hanging from and drag it beside me. Ashton helps me maneuver around the three sleeping boys sprawled out on air mattresses on the floor. We make it out into the hallway, and Ashton leads us left.
"Did Luke tell our parents and Jack and Ben?" I inquire, breaking the silence.
Ashton shakes his head, "No. After we saw the picture of you with the stab wound, he spent a while just sitting in your room and thinking. He told us that he was trying to figure out how and when he'd tell your parents. Then the police got the security video, and you weren't dead anymore." Ashton flashes me a grin and nudges my shoulder. "It's right over here. I'll wait outside for you."
"Thank you Ash," I say, giving him a hug. He squeezes me tight for a moment, then lets go. I smile then move into Felix's room.
Felix is sitting up in his bed watching the television when I first spot him. I smile brightly, my shoulders relaxing. He glances over and spots me.
A grin breaks out on his face, "Molly!"
"I thought you were dead, loser," I smile, climbing up on his bed beside him, "I watched a building fall on you."
"I thought you only had the mind powers and the blue energy," he retaliates, "not super speed, invisibility, flying, and I don't even know."
"I did," I answer, "but then I died a few times. How'd you know about the Mercury and all that? And more importantly, how the fuck did you get into my head?"
"You recognized my voice?" He grins.
"I couldn't place it at first. Then it hit me later on," I elaborate.
"Tremor took me out before the building collapsed. He saw that I was smart, and he wanted my abilities or something like that. So he faked my death. The minions brought me back to his hideout later on, and I don't even know. It was weird Molly. They had me doing all sort of tests and stuff and somehow, Tremor, you, and I all ended up with our thoughts linked for a little while. I don't even remember most of what happened. It's all a blur."
"Well I'm glad you're back from the dead," I admit, "I missed having your annoying ass around."
"Aw," Felix smiles, nudging my shoulder, "I told you I'd grow on you."
"Fuck off," I laugh, "I have to get back to my room, but I'll try to come back and visit later."
He shakes his head, "I'm getting discharged from the hospital when my mom gets back. I'll stop by your room on my way out." I nod and give him another hug before making my way back out to the hallway where Ashton is waiting for me.
