Jeremy had picked Lisa up from the hospital and they had gone back to her place so she could pack some clothes and essentials so stay at Jeremy's. The doctor had said they she didn't know how long it would be until Lisa would be allowed to actually go home it could be weeks or months, it all depended on her recovery. Doctor Stevens believed the therapy process would take a while.
"Nice place," Jeremy commented.
"Yeah it's nice, just right for me I guess," Lisa blushed, as realised she had left her apartment in a complete mess, she had been planning on doing a big spring clean the day after…. Tears began to form in Lisa's eyes but she pushed those feelings away. "Sorry about the mess, I guess I was planning on cleaning" she smiled and giggled.
"No worries, all I've done is clean since I realised you were actually gong to be living with me" Jeremy laughed and gave Lisa one of those award winning smiles she had come to love.
"Would it be ok if we come back in a couple of days so I can clean the place? I feel horrible knowing I'm about to leave it in this state."
"Yeah of course, just let me know when you're ready." Jeremy hoped she would be ready for a lot of other things too. He was starting to feel things he hadn't felt in a long time, every time he saw that look of her remembering what happened he just wanted to pull her into his arms and protect her. He hadn't felt this way since… well that's something he didn't want to remember either, all he knew was her wanted her to be more than just a friend, but he would have to work slowly, last thing he wanted was to put her back in that hospital for scaring her or something.
"Jeremy…" Lisa had been talking but Jeremy had totally blanked out.
"What? Oh sorry" he smiled.
"Where did you go?" Lisa asked, laughing at him too.
"No where sorry" he giggled. "You ready to go?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure I've got everything."
"Awesome, lets go."
As they were driving to Jeremy's the two chatted about different things, just finding out different bits and pieces about the other. Lisa was looking out the window where she realised what part of town they were in, it was the classier, maybe even described as posh, part. She was starting to wonder exactly where he lived, when he turned down a street she knew he must had a huge place. "When you said that you had a room spare, exactly how many rooms do you have?" Lisa asked
"Yeah well… um lets just say I have money, I don't like to flaunt it because, well because its not who I am, I inherited it from my parents when they passed on." They pulled up outside this beautiful almost mansion type house. "Come in, I'll show you around and which is your room, then we'll come back and get your bags." As they walked through the house Jeremy showed Lisa all the rooms, there were some bedrooms that he had converted them into something else. There was one that he transformed into a studio; another was now a photography lab. Lisa couldn't believe it. Jeremy then showed her where his room was and just next door was hers. They had joining rooms but Jeremy had said that she was quite welcome to lock the door if she wished.
After the tour the two of them went down and unpacked Lisa's things from the car one they had finished they sat in the lounge room. "So what do you want for dinner?" asked Jeremy. "I can cook something or if you want we can order in, it's up to you."
"You can cook? I might have to see this for myself" Lisa teased. "What is your speciality?" Lisa laughed.
