Deliah's POV

She's awake, staring confused at my figure in the corner of the room. Behind my back I  put the plastic bag back and grab hold of a teddy bear.

"What are you doing here?" she asks with a raspy voice.  I bring the bear forward while simultaneously ripping off the note attached to it.

"I brought u a get well soon gift" I say putting on my best fake smile to which she just scoffs. Before her reply came the door opened and her parents entered a long with two nurses.

"Honey plum, you're awake!" her mother screeched running to her.

"Miss, if you would please leave the room. Visiting hours are only for close family members today." one of the nurses notified me politely.

"Who is she anyways?" Andreen's mother asked looking me up and down.

"Just... someidiot in my class" Andreen answered with a nasty look.

"I'll be leaving now." I say quickly under my breath and basically run out the door. I take a look at the note in my hand.

Get well soon, Andreen

Love Chelsea

Is it bad that I don't feel any guilt while dumping it in the trash?

On my way out of the foyer I bump into a tall piece of muscle.

"Deliah?" oh sweet I know that voice. I look up and into the eyes of  Keanu . "What brings you here?" he asked biting his lip.

"Andreen. She's awake by the way." I say looking down. "But they're only allowing close family members in."

"Atleast one good thing happened today." he sighed running his hands through his hair. Taking a good look at him I now notice his troubled frame. He's still wearing his suit from the funeral but his tie is loose and his hair ruffled.

"You look like you could use a cup of coffee." I say slightly smiling.

"Alone or with company?"

"I think Dr. Deliah can squeeze you in for a quick therapy session." I say jokingly to which I'm grateful he smiles.

"Well the Darling what are we waiting for?"

I follow Keanu to his car and we drive slowly to a nearby diner. It's small but cozy. When we arrive there he opens my door like the gentleman he is and leads me inside.

"I'll be right back." he excuses himself to the bathroom while I keep myself busy with social media. Nothing out of the ordinary except one new notification.

KEANU COLLINS IS IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH KELSEY BALLON.

You know that feeling when your heart literally gets stuck in your throat? Yeah, it sucks.

"Sorry if I took too long. But you know what they say, perfection takes time." he says trying to light the mood while sliding into the booth.

"Yeah, that's why people shouldn't rush into things like for example  relationships." I say casually skimming through the menu.

"Wait, what?"

"Hello, my name is Danielle, may I take your order?" the waitress, wearing a very short miniskirt, intrudes.
