Chameleon

Chapter 9

William's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~

Everything has been good so far,I tried to keep my distance but all my tries made it worst since I really wanted him everywhere .

After he woke up and had breakfast his medication kicked in so he went back to bed.

I decided to lay low for about a week before going back to the company.

Lemon slept for three days before regaining consciousness, thank God he's okay.

He saved my life,but how did he know I was there, and why would he try to save someone when he was in pain, is he that selfless, how can someone be such an angel.

I don't know he looks so different from when I first met him, he seems confident and loves to look me in the eyes.
I don't have a problem with it ,it's just that the change is just too sudden.

~~~~~~~~~~~
At the restaurant I just couldn't concentrate on my meal and during the drive to the restaurant I couldn't help but think he looks cute in my jacket and scarf,he seems to love dark colours .

I went to the bathroom to calm myself only to return to a room full of armed men and frightened people.

I looked over our table but I didn't see lemon.
That's when my nerves broke in, I couldn't move, someone might think I was being fearless but the truth is I was scared not for myself rather Lemon.

I decided not to make it known to them that I was worried about someone.
I just didn't want him hurt because of me.

I just wanted to know who wanted me death.
And finding it was my second uncle didn't surprise me, I was just mad at myself for not putting two and two together upon everything he did.

Luckily ,I was glad I took the pen that would send a message to my friend,alarming him of my safety.

I pressed on it and I trusted that he would be here soon but I needed to help myself someway and most importantly is Lemon safe?

I didn't want to lose him ,that I was sure,no, more that sure,my heart wouldn't stop beating through my chest.

Just when I thought everything was over,a shoe swiftly flies toward the gun men ,knocking his gun out of his hands.

With that distraction I picked up the gun and shot him in the leg and found cover.
As I stayed hidden I saw lemon under a table with a shoe in his hand, that was when I realized he was the one who threw it.

I thought he would be terrified but to my relief he was rather calm, very calm I must say.

He was so into his defense that he hadn't seen me yet but I can clearly see him .

Soon the entire place was filled with lights and sounds which obviously came from police cars.

I turned around to see whether the men were still inside but they seemed to have left leaving tracks of blood on the floor which was spotlessly clean when we entered.

I glanced towards lemon's direction but he was no longer under the table and he was no where near me but soon i heard someone calling my name desperately and as I tried to react by getting up from where I sat when a throbbing pain took me by surprise.

"Fuck" I groaned as I supported my left hand with my right after I threw the gun on the floor.

I followed the voice of lemon for a few minutes but finally found him with a blanket over his small frame, when his eyes fell me, he sighed in relief as he ran to me and covered me with the blanket and helped me out of the restaurant to the ambulance where Josh stood with a look of worry mixed with relief plastered on his face upon seeing me.

He rushed over to help me and asked lemon to go back home with my driver but I didn't want that and I could tell lemon also didn't so I asked him to stay.

An officer came to me to have my statement and I did just that as my wound was being cleaned as we sat in the ambulance with Lemon and Josh.

They both gave their statements and soon I was back to my penthouse with Lemon and Josh.
They didn't speak a word during our ride back but I just knew they were waiting for us to get home first and I was right.
As soon as I dropped my jacket on the sofa Josh spoke.

" I hate to say this...but I told you so" Josh smirked.

I rubbed my temples as I felt a headache settling and sighed

"Are you okay?" Finally Lemon spoke and as my eyes found the owner of the voice with a cup of hot cocoa in his hands a smile climbed my cheeks ad he handed me the cup of hot cocoa.

" y-yeah...I'm okay..just tired" I assured as I took the cup from him. "Thanks"

"You should get some rest yourself" I cared as he looked tired from all that.

" okay..,you too..., goodnight"

"I'll see you tomorrow, Kiddo" Josh said as Lemon made his way to his room.

~~~~~~~~~
Josh and I ended up wasted on the couch after we spoke all night about what we were going to do with my second uncle and we did find the perfect way to handle him.

I hardly drink but finding out whoever wanted me dead called for a celebration and that celebration ended me in Lemon's bed.

What the hell?

Why am I here and where is Josh?

My head hurts like hell.
How did I get here?

The last thing I remember is being in the living room with Josh drinking wine and talking a lot and most of it was about lemon and we were being loud.
Lemon shouldn't hear any of what I said although I meant it, I'm not ready to let him know how I feel about him.

He needs time to find himself.
