Elena's pov;
After we finished eating the breakfast together, Nick asked me, "What are you doing after this?"
I dumped the utensils in the sink while answering him, "It seems like you're free for the entire day."
"Of course, I am. It's my weekend so I have to be free."
"If you're that free, you can go and visit your friends then or you can go to mixers."
He walked to me and helped with cleaning the utensils and said, "I don't like going to mixers."
"Oh… okay. Well, Listen, Anyway I'm not going to invite you. Because it's the batch I studied and people who will be coming are my classmates. I'm already thinking about the questions they're going to ask me since I didn't go to many reunion parties so I cannot answer their questions if they ask about you."
"I'm not trying for that."
Nick's pov;Turning on the phone and looking at the time again and again made me worried about Elena more and more. Before I met Elena, my weekends are like staying in my place or being with Andrew or going to mixers and being with girls and passing time leisurely but now whenever weekend come, I'll look for the restaurant where I'm going to eat with her or I'll wait for her message where she planned to eat along with me. I don't know when it changed like this but I kinda liked the new routine more than the previous one. I smiled while thinking about how I turned after seeing Elena.Elena said she'll call me when she wants to leave so I've been looking at the time like a dog waiting in front of the door for his master's return. I smiled again. After having feelings for Elena, I started smiling a lot even while thinking about her in a glimpse. Sometimes it feels like I'm possessed by Elena's thoughts. What have you done to me?&nbs
Elena's pov;I woke up and rushed to the bathroom as soon as I felt like vomiting. After I let out everything in the sink, I felt tired. I dropped down on the floor and tried to remember what happened last night. I never should have drunk when they told me to. If they didn't ask questions about my personal life, I never would have taken drinks. They asked if I am seeing someone, do I have a crush… every silly question. Hmph!While I tried to stand on my own, someone gave me a hand by helping me to stand. I stood with that person's help and took a look at them to know who it was.Nick.Nick held and helped me to walk to the room. I sat on the bed and my head started hurting so bad. Urghhh! Did I drink that much? Nick gave me a drink saying, "It's a hangover drink. Come on, drink it."I received it from him and started drinking it little by little. While I was dr
Nick's pov;Elena and I came for dinner to the Bowl and Plate Eatery Restaurant.While we're entering the restaurant, Elena said, "Look there, they give discounts on those tables. Let's go over there.""I can pay for our food.""No! We already talked about this. I have to pay half of the price and… since I spent money on many things, I don't have much money in my hands. Understood? So let's go over there.""Okay. Okay. Let's go."There was a guy who was standing. Elena asked him, "We saw the discount signboard…""
Nick's pov;I came to my apartment after dropping Elena at her house. She asked me to sleep at her place but I couldn't since I'm aware of feelings we had for each other. I don't know how she could still act like a friend to me even after knowing that she has feelings for me but it's hard for me. Whenever I'm beside her, I trigger her to confess what she feels towards me but she escapes and tricks me somehow.I placed the ticket on the table which she gave to me. Skillet band concert tickets. Did she really buy only one ticket?I showered and laid on the bed. When I tried to sleep by closing my eyes, my phone rang which made me get up from my bed.Who's calling me now?I took my phone and saw Elena's name on the display and smiled at it. I answered the call and asked, "Didn't you sleep yet?""Ahhh. Not yet. I'm... I'm working on a file." And
Elena's pov;After informing Nick that I couldn't go with him since I got work, I came to the office."Hi, Elena!" Jenny waved at me while I was walking into the open office.I walked towards her and sat in my place which is beside her and asked her, "There you are! How are you feeling now?""As you can see, I'm totally fine. And… Why does the office look empty? Did I come earlier today?""It's not you. Some took their Christmas holidays already and some went for a business trip.""What about Mr Brett?""He also went for a business trip.""So which leaves the managing director, you and me?""There's still Benjamin, Harry, Flora, Managing director's assistant.""Ohhh. Okay. Then where are they?""You shouldn't ask about others when you come ear
Nick's pov;While Elena was drying my hair after a shower, I wrapped my both hands around my waist and pulled her towards me and hugged her and she hugged me back while patting my head which put a smile on my face.I asked her, "Elena, Why does one feel jealous?""Everyone thinks jealousy is similar to being possessive but it's not, instead it is more similar to getting scared of losing the person we like."Yes, you are right. I'm afraid of losing you, Elena."My dad called me to come meet him and mom.""Wow! That's great! You should go.""But I don't want to.""Why?""You already know why.""You can't be like this forever and you know that. To be honest, it's no one's mistake. If you talk to them about it, you two will know that there's no wrong on anyone's side."
Nick's pov;I ended the call with Elena and walked to the door to look who knocked on the other side. When I opened the door, "Dad?..."Dad leaned in and looked around the room while asking, "Is the room clean or should I call Frida to clean it for you?"(Frida - our maid who is working in the house since I've known)"Don't. It's clean already.""Then did you unpacked your clothes and…""Dad, I already said I'm not staying. I'll leave in two or three days.""I remember. I'm just making sure the room is comfortable for you. If it isn't, I can help you with another room…""It's fine, dad. This room is okay.""Okay, then… Come down for lunch. Let's have lunch together."Before he finished, I interrupted him by saying, "I don't feel hungry."
Elena's pov; I couldn't open my eyes since it felt heavy but I was able to smell it... It was something different when I sniffed. It felt like... medicine, antiseptic and soaps? Where am I? I tried to open my eyes but I couldn't, so I tried opening it slowly and opened in the end. When I opened my eyes, it hurt because of the bright light. I blinked again and again and got adapted to the light and I could see where I am properly now. There was a white ceiling above me and I came to know that I was lying on a bed. I tried to move my head to either side to look where I was. The setup, it looked like… A hospital? Why am I in the hospital? When I tried to remember what happened... Last night… I was going with Matt… The accident!!! "MATTT!!" , I shouted out of my lungs. I tried to get up from the bed but before doing that someone ran into the room and stopped me by saying, "You shouldn't do that mam, lie down on the bed, please."

Elena's pov; At the dining table, I looked around the table, Edward, Amelia, Mitchell, Nick and me were all sitting and having lunch together. "If Mom and dad were here. It would be one whole happy family." I uttered while I'm eating. Nick held my hand and said, "We're still a family." I gave a smile and continued eating. "What are you two speaking?" Amelia asked us. "Nothing. She was just talking about the house." "What are you talking about?" Edward asked. "This house looks really huge." "Yeah, it was passed on to us. This house belongs to Amelia's father." "Where is he?" "He passed away." "I'm sorry." "It's fine. By the way, sin
Elena's pov;After two weeks,"Hello… what? Wait... I can't hear you properly. Wait. I'll call you back later."I ended the call with Nick and asked the doctor who was talking to the nurse while she was applying an ice pack on my hand,"How's my hand, doctor?""Looking good. It seems like you still need to wear this splint for another week. Did you put pressure on your hand?"I shook my head and said, "I fell on it without knowing.""I said to be careful. There's inflammation on your hand so you have to wear a splint to avoid further accidents.""Actually, I got a flight to catch now. Is it okay to travel with this hand?"He gave me a stare and said, "Yeah, you can but be careful. And… don't fall. If you are about to fall, then do it on your right side." And left the room.I asked the nurse,
Elena's pov;(Dec 25, 2021)At the skillet concert,"How about your hand?" The security asked me after checking my concert ticket."It's fine. I'll take care of it.""But…""Please, I have a confession to make today. My boyfriend is inside. Please allow me inside. I'll assure you. I'll look after my hand carefully.""Okay. Go inside.""Thank you."I walked past the security guard and entered inside the concert hall. It was lit with beautiful lights and decorated in the Christmas vibes.They already started the concert?They were performing, "Awake and Alive" on the stage.Now, I must find Nick among this crowd. What if he didn't come? No, no… he will be here. I'll find him here. I walked among th
Nick's pov;I'm in the cafe by the window waiting for Elena's brother. Edward.I looked at the time and came to know that there's still ten minutes to go before his arrival. I let out a sigh and looked outside the window. It was snowing outside and inside there were Christmas vibes with the music and lights. Tomorrow is Christmas, I thought of taking Elena to somewhere special but it seems like it's not possible now.I got Iced Americano for myself and started drinking it while I was waiting for him.After some time, he arrived. He waved at me when he spotted me and walked towards the table where I'm seated at."How are you?" Asked when he was about to sit on the chair."Good.""Why are you sitting alone? Where's Elena?" Asked while looking around for Elena."Um… let's order
Elena's pov;"When will the cast be removed, Doctor?" I asked the doctor curiously."When do you want to remove the cast?""What about... Today?"He gave me a stare and said, "If you want to get cured quickly then you have to wear this. Did you forget when I said that? Actually, I wonder whenever you ask this. You haven't asked about your recovery time even once instead you're so concentrated on removing your cast. Answer me, what are you going to do after I remove the cast?... or are you worried that you couldn't use your phone since you got hurt in your right hand?"I looked at him when he raised that question to me."So that's the reason behind it. Phone has become the most important thing for this generation."Matt walked in while the doctor was talking to me. He walked to where he was sleeping and took something and
Elena's pov;Someone knocked on the door continuously which woke me up from my sleep. I took my phone and looked at the time. It's 10 already. Did I sleep that long? I turned to my right side and found an empty bed. Where's Matt? I think he's the one who's knocking."Come in!"The door opened."Why are you knocking on the door? Why don't you just come in?"My eyes almost popped out when the person walked into the room."Nick?"How did he come here? How did he know that I'm here? He didn't have any expressions on his face which made me puzzled to find what's going on in his mind. He walked to me where I was lying on the bed. As he was approaching, I tried to get up from the bed.Nick ran to me and stopped me from getting up and made me lie down on the bed again. I remained silent since I don't k
Elena's pov;Five days have passed with a routine of taking a lot of tablets at every meal of the day with the doctor checking up in the morning following the ice pack massage for my hand at night before going to sleep. Finally, they changed my bandage around my head so I got a new one today. I walked around my room with my right hand tied around my neck with a strap. It felt different in the beginning keeping my hand still but I got used to it as days went by but at the same time I wanted it to recover soon. After the nurse was done with the bandage, Matt asked me, "Are you ready?"I nodded with a bright smile. It's been days since I got to see the outside world. Hahaha."Take care, Elena." The nurse said with a smile on her face while leaving the room.After she left, I walked along with Matt out of the room. He walked beside me to make sure that I didn't get hit by someone or something.
