Chapter 9
Pulling into the grocery store parking lot, I heard my cell phone start to play one of Teddy's songs. Maybe it was Teddy's mom calling to give me an update. I hoped it was. I was worried to death that something bad had happened to him.
"Hello," I answered as I got out of my car.
"Kourtni...this is Teddy's mom," his mom said on her end of the phone. "I was just calling to give you an update on Teddy. He is perfectly fine, just has a bruise or two on his face and has a few knots on his arms."
"It is such a relief to hear that."
"It definitely is a relief. Would you like to stop by our house later on to visit him? I am certain he would love to see you."
"Okay, I'll stop by. Right now I have to run into the grocery store for my mom. Once I get finished I'll drop the groceries off at our house and then I'll make my way down to your house. Are you sure you don't mind me stopping by?"
"No, I don't mind at all. I actually think it would be a great idea. If you would like you can stay for a few hours since I'm going out to eat with my family."
"I will."
"Okay, thanks. We will see you whenever you get here. Bye."
"Bye."
-Confidence-
After waiting outside the front door of Teddy's house for a minute, the door opened. It was his mom.
"Teddy's up in his room watching television. You may go on up," she said as she let me in and then shut the door behind me.
"Thanks," I smiled as I walked past her and headed for the stairs.
As I walked up the stairs, I could hear Teddy in his room. He was playing his guitar, and I guess watching television at the same time. I quietly knocked on the door, and immediately after I knocked the guitar playing stopped.
"Come in," I heard Teddy say from inside of his room.
I carefully and quietly opened the door and walked inside.
"I came to see how you were doing," I said shutting the door behind me. "I also brought you a few some things."
"Mom told me you were going to stop by," Teddy said.
"Did you not want me here or something?"
"No, I promise. It's not that. I don't feel good at all. My head is killing me."
"Maybe this will make you feel better," I said gently kissing Teddy's forehead, where I had seen a bruise. "Here are the some things I brought you," I said handing Teddy the teddy bear and the card I had bought him at the store.
"Thanks," he laughed. "I would kiss you back, but I'm just in a lot of pain. Sorry."
"Oh no, don't worry about it. It's okay. I won't hold it against you this time," I laughed. "So, what do you want to do? I am going to stay here while your mom goes out to eat with her family."
"Let's just watch a movie. Go check out the movies I have. I'll let you pick."
"Okay," I smiled as I walked over to Teddy's rack of movies.
Scanning the list I saw quite a few romantic comedies, my favorites. Finally I spotted one that I wanted to watch.
"Here," I said handing the movie to Teddy.
"You want to watch 'Just Married'?"
"Yes. Why do you ask?"
"Just wondering."
-Confidence-
Rolling over I noticed I wasn't at my house. Sitting up straight I noticed I was in Teddy's bed. Looking all around the room I couldn't find Teddy. Once I got out of bed, I noticed a folded up piece of paper on the dresser next to his bed. It was a note from Teddy to me. The note read:
'Kourtni, You fell asleep during the middle of the movie, that's why you're in my bed. Anyways, if you are reading this and I'm not in the room...come down the hall to the entertainment room. I'll probably be practicing one of my songs. -Teddy P.S.-Thanks for staying with me.'
I put the note down and walked towards what I guessed to be the entertainment room. As I got closer I was able to figure out which room it was because I could hear Teddy singing.
"Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you what I feel about you," Teddy sang as I stood in the doorway of the room. "Oh...hey," he said when he saw me standing in the doorway. "Did you get a good rest?" he somewhat laughed as he got up and walked towards me.
"I did," I replied with a smile. "How long was I out for?"
"Oh, you were out for about an hour or so."
"Are you serious?"
"Would I lie to you?"
"I would hope not."
"I wouldn't lie to you."
"Good."
-Confidence-
Things had been quiet for quite a while. Teddy had been in the kitchen trying to figure out something for us to have for supper. As I flipped through the channels of the satellite, I felt my back pocket vibrating. I quickly pulled my phone out from my pocket.
"Hello," I answered.
"Kourtni?" the voice asked.
"Yeah, this is Kourtni. Who is this?"
"This is Lucas, your ex-boyfriend."
"I know you're my ex-boyfriend. You didn't have to tell me that. I'm not stupid. Anyways, what are you calling me for?"
"Melissa was in an accident."
"WHAT?" I yelled sitting up straight in my seat. "When?"
"The accident happened about ten minutes ago. Her brother called me saying he was trying to get up with you, because he knew Melissa would want you to be the first to know. That's why I called you."
"Is she okay?"
"They don't know. She looks pretty beat up."
"Oh...my," I said as I felt a tear roll down the side of my face. "Are you in the ER?"
"Yes. That is where we are."
"Give me five minutes and I'll be there."
"Okay."
-Confidence-
Walking into the kitchen the tears just continued to roll down the side of my face. When Teddy spotted me, he dropped everything that was in his hands.
"What's wrong?" he asked as he hugged me tightly.
"My best friend was in a wreck. She's in the emergency room now," I replied. "I have to leave and go there right away. My ex just called and told me about it. They don't know how bad she's hurt. All they know is she looks pretty beat up."
"Oh no, I'm so sorry Kourtni. Is there anything I can do to help you?"
"Go with me," I said as I backed out of the tight hug that Teddy had held me in.
"Sure. Let me turn things off really quick," Teddy said as he turned around and turned the oven and everything else off. "Let's go."
"Okay," I said as Teddy grabbed my hand and ran for the front door.
