My Mafia Prince - MaxTul

Chapter 15

(Tul's POV)

I rolled over feeling the warmth next to me grow as I got close to the source. I opened my eyes, turning my head slightly as I looked at the source of heat I was receiving. It was to no surprise that I saw Max laying there sleeping. I rolled onto my side so that I was facing him as I took in his sleeping figure.

I watched as his chest would rise and fall with every calming breath he took, his dark locks feeling over his face as his long lashes lay closed against his lids. His lips were slightly parted as they drew breath in and out. He looked so calm like nothing could hurt him.

I was so caught up admiring his sleeping figure that when he spoke I was caught off guard. "You done admiring me? If not you could take a picture." he said as he opened his eyes, turning to face me, "at least it will last longer."

I looked at him in shock moving back slightly as a flushed of red met my cheeks. I looked at him only to see his annoying smirk plastering his face. "What makes you think I didn't?" I questioned as I rolled on my back crossing my arms over my chest and looking at the ceiling.

"Because your phone is on my side of the bed." he commented with a breathy laugh. I turned my head to look at him as I said, "What makes you think I didn't go over there and take one?"

"You didn't."
"And how would you know that?"
"Because..." he said as he looked at me flashing his smirk as he continued with a 'I got you' voice, " I was awake the whole time."
"What-" I was about to respond when he cut me off.
"I've been awake all night, watching over you...do you think I would sleep after you've just been drugged?... Or possibly poisoned." he said, raising an eyebrow. I looked away and back at the ceiling as I gulped.

"What do you mean 'Possibly poisoned'? I thought Saint knew what drug they used on me." I said as I propped myself up on my elbows before being pushed back down by Max's hand on my left shoulder. "You shouldn't move so suddenly. We still don't know if your systems are clear or what internal damage was caused."

"Right but I thought I took the antidote?"
"You did but like I said we don't know what drug or what was used on you exactly"
"But I thought-" I was about to respond when I was cut off.
"Yeah I know what we all thought but like I said it could have been something different." Max said as he looked at me, jaw clenched and an unreadable expression on his face.

"Okay fine whatever, just when can i leave this bed. I feel like an old person lying here all day." I cock my head towards him as I raised an eyebrow at him. He smiled as he got up stretching. "Stuck in bed for 2 days and complaining. I thought teenagers liked to stay in bed?"

"If you haven't noticed, I'm not a normal teenager. Also why are you talking to me like a parent when you're the same age as me?"
"Well I'm a year older but point taken."
"No you're a few months older not a year older."
"Geez it was better when you were sleeping." I chuckled as I put my hands behind my head watching as he walked over to the door. He went to place his hand on the handle to leave when he turned to look at me.

"Hey Tul...Once Doc has examined you and you've eaten. There's uhhhhh there's something important I need to tell you." he said looking down at his feet the whole time as guilt flushed over his face.

I watched as he grabbed the handle, swinging the door open and leaving before I was able to say anything back. I laid there hands behind my head as I stared at the ceiling wondering why that expression was planted on Max's face? Why did he look so guilty and upset? What had he done? And why would he do what he had done?

I closed my eyes as I let the questions in my head flow around and try to put answers to it. That's when I noticed I hadn't seen my mother yet. I opened my eyes, rolling on my front as I stretched across the bed reaching for my phone. I read the time and it was only 6am. I know my mother doesn't wake up till 7 so I decided to let it sit for now.

Although I did find it strange that Max didn't go and wake her, you'd assume he would since i've been ill for days. Then again it's like the saying goes, don't make assumptions cause you will be an ass and an ump will tion you. I smiled at my thoughts as I rolled back over. "For the love of god if I have to keep rolling over in this bed then I might actually go insane." I say to myself once again staring at the ceiling.

I laid there for a while longer till I heard a knock on my door, "come in." I said as I turned my head towards the door. I watched as a man around my mother's age walked in with a medical bag. "Your doc?" I asked and the man smiled wrinkles caressing his face. He came closer placing the bag on the bedside desk.

"I am the doctor although you sounded slightly disappointed when you asked me that." he said smiling as he flicked through his bag. "Uh no i'm not disappointed...sorry I just um."

"It's quite alright. Any way how are you feeling?"
"Fine. well exhausted but i guess that's a side effect of the thing?"
"From what we know it could be. Do you mind if I feel around your torso area just to get a feel at some organs to see if any are swollen?"
"Sure go ahead."

I watched as the doc placed his hands around my sides and lower back before checking my heartbeat with a stethoscope. he took his hands away reaching for his notes as he wrote down a few things before turning to me once again. "It seems everythings fine although I would advise you to take it easy for a while and eat something just for precautions."

I nod as the door opens revealing Max holding a tray of food. He came forth as doc moved his bag allowing him to place the tray down where doc's bag previously laid. He looked between the both of us before speaking, "Everything okay?" he asked as he looked at me. I nodded once again as Doc passed him the notes. I raised a brow as I thought about how my privacy was currently being invaded.

I waited while doc and max spoke about my recovery and blah blah blah. I grabbed my phone as I flicked through a few apps as I waited for the two to stop talking as if I wasn't there.

It was around another five minutes before doc left and although I was still aware what was happening it caught me by surprise when my phone was snatched away and I was pulled forward. I watched as I sat on the edge of the bed and Max grabbed the bowl of the tray. He placed the spoon in the bowl before scooping up some of the soup and blowing on it bringing it to my mouth.

I raised a brow as I looked at him with a 'are you serious' look while he raised a brow and nodded his head slightly. I looked around before I sighed, opening my mouth and allowing him to feed me. We sat like that for a while before him feeding me while I tried not to allow the embarrassment I was feeling show on my face. Once he finished feeding me I sat back head against the headboard.

I looked at Max as he stood by the side of the bed looking down at me. Our eyes stayed connected as we took in each other's sights. We were like this for a good 15 minutes before Max's phone rang. I watched as he looked at the id but declined the call. "Why did you decline the call? Ain't those things important when you're in the mafia?"

"They are, it was. Though it isn't as important as what i'm about to tell you.'' I watched as he fiddled with his fingers before looking at me with sad eyes. "Your mother...your mother erm." I watched as he hesitated and rubbed at the back of his head before sitting on the bed arm on his legs as his hands rubbed together. "My motherwhat Max?" I asked as I watched the nervous wreck of a boy look up at me with teary eyes.

"Your mother left with Choi in order for us to get the antidote to save your life."

The next few minutes were filled with silent till...

"WHAT!!!"
