Crystal Crown
Fourteen
*LOUIS'S POV*
When I wake up, I can still taste Crystal's lips on mine.
Again.
Crystal?
Where is she?
She promised she wouldn't leave!
I try to jolt up, but I groan, clutching my stomach. Ah, great. I remember now. I got shot...
Wheezing, I look over to my nurse. She's a young woman with straight, dull brown hair and her eyes are a light blue.
She seems to realize me just now, and looks over, smiling.
"Hi, I'm Lexi. Your nurse." She says with a Swedish accent.
"Hi," I murmur and lay back down.
"How you feeling?" She asks.
"I - I'm fine."
"Good. I'm gonna go get your breakfast."
Her voice sounds fake, though. As if she's forcing herself to talk to me..
Wonder why.
My mind wanders off to Crystal and I inwardly groan.
I know what she said.. she's going to leave..
But she promised..
"Here you go," Lexi suddenly says and hands me a tray. Not much food. Just fruit in yougurt and milk.
I'm starving, but it still takes a lot of effort to finish.
"Am I allowed to have visitors?" I ask Lexi as she comes to take my tray.
"What, I'm not enough?" She teases. I smile.
"No, it's just.."
"I get it," She replies quickly. "Yes, visiors are allowed."
"Excellent." I breathe.
"Need anything else?" Lexi asks, twirling a lock of brown hair around her finger.
"No," I reply, signaling for her to leave.
