The phone rang waking Heather up she heard Sara answer it. "Really? Okay you can just send him right up."
Heather's voice was muffled s she spoke though the pillow and Blankets. Who's being sent up?"
"Oh no one just a young man with flowers, a shirt, oh and your glasses. So now I guess well get some answers."
Heather rolled her eyes and tried to get up. It only took one mover to remind her about the bruises on her back. She let herself fall back to the bed and waited for the tremors to leave the bed. She decided that Rafa would have to face Sara alone that wouldn't be too bad. But the door opened and Kandra and Melissa came scurrying in. "What's up with the two of you?" Sara asked.
"Oh nothing we just saw Rafa Nadal in the lobby so I thought it would be best to get Melissa out of there before she attacked him."
"Yeah that was a good Idea." Sara said laughing.
"That boy sure is Yummy." Was all Melissa had to add to the conversation. Which brought a dark thought to Heather's head maybe Melissa would kill her to get to Rafa at least if she were dead the pain in her back would stop.
"You're just in time." Sara said.
"What are we just in time for?" Kandra asked as Melissa danced around the room chanting Rafa's name.
"Heather's mystery guy is on his way up right now." Sara said. That got Melissa's attention.
"So we get to meet Mr. Wonderful that has stolen Heather way from us?" Melissa asked.
"Yep."
"Then why is Heather still sleeping?" Just as Melissa went to start jumping on the bed to wake Heather up Kandra went to answer the knock on the door.
"Is this Heather's room?" Rafa asked her as Kandra stood socked in the doorway. She just nodded and walked backwards into the room.
"Hi there it's nice to finally meet you." Sara said as she held out her hand to shake his. Granted it was easy for her considering she didn't know who Rafa was.
Rafa was immediately distracted by Melissa's bouncing on the bed. "That must be Melissa" he said.
"Yeah she's such a child at heart. What is wrong with you Kandra?" Sara looked at Kandra who was doing a good impression of a fish just opening and closing her mouth trying to say something. Sara looked at Rafa and just shrugged her shoulders.
"So do I want to know why Melissa is jumping on the bed?" Rafa leaned in as he asked Sara.
"She wants to wake Heather up. You didn't notice that bulge in the blankets?" as Sara said it, it clicked in his brain. He quickly grabbed Melissa by her waist and gently tossed her onto the other bed where she bounced once or twice before falling off the other side.
"What that hells the big Idea" she yelled as she got back up. She went quite as she realized who had thrown her.
Rafa was kneeling next to the bed gently paced his hand on Heather's back as he pulled the blankets away from her face. He laughed a little as, he saw her face. She was biting a pillow. He leaned in and whispered. "You're such a good friend that you won't even tell them that they are hurting you?"
She let go of the pillow to speak to him. "I was really hoping she'd finish me off."
"Here I brought your glasses." He set them on the night stand next to her bed "and those flowers are for you too. And there's a new shirt over there for you too."
"Thanks for bringing my glasses but you didn't need to do the shirt and flowers." She slowly sat up. When she finally was up right "Now go away." She glared at him.
Rafa felt the room cool as he looked into her cold but fiery glare. He quickly looked around the room to see her friends where shocked but that they would side with her. "She's doesn't mean it she's just in pain from Melissa jumping on her."
"I didn't jump that hard and why did you have to bring her a new shirt?" Melissa looked like she was ready to jump back over the bed and rip his throat out.
Rafa tried to back peddle. "Yester day I kissed her and accidently hurt her back against a tree." He could tell he had said the wrong thing as Melissa actually did jump up on the bed but Sara was quick and grabbed her arm holding her back.
He looked back at Heather only to see she was madder at him. "Do you honestly think that after only two dates you know me inside and out? Get out I'm still mad at you for what happened after. GET OUT NOW OR I'LL MAKE SURE MELISSA FINISHES YOU OFF." She had back him out though the open door as she yelled at him and though the shirt at him too.
She slammed the door and locked it even though she knew it locked automatically. She staked back to the bed and started to cry like she did every time she got mad. Melissa, Sara, and Kandra were all startled by her quick temper flare up it usually took a lot to get Heather that worked up. Heather looked over at them "you guys just go and watch the matches I want to be alone right now. I promise I'll talk about it later ok? And don't let him back in right now."
"Ok Heather if you're sure that's what you want." Kandra said as she was the most timid of the three and was very happy to leave a, pissed off Heather by herself as the three left the room the found a very confused Rafa still standing in the hallway.
"What did you do to her?" Melissa asked as she shook him slightly.
"I am not sure what made her so mad." He was running his hand over the soft fabric of the shirt he bought her. "After the kiss I took her back to the place where I am staying so I could take care of her cuts. While I bandaged her back she fell asleep so I laid down next to her. We were a wakened by my roommate Feli bring me some food from his night out.
After he left the room she was mad and wouldn't calm down. I got her to put one of my shirts on and down to a taxi with out any one else in the house noticing her as she wished, but I see she is still mad at me. Help me I don't know where I went wrong."
The pain in his eyes as he looked at Melissa made her soften to him. She leaned in and whispered. "While you were lying next to her did she do and thing or say anything while she was sleeping?"
Rafa looked at her surprised and, nodded his head. He did not expect Melissa to bust out laughing. "Well then I know exactly why she's mad she's embarrassed that you now know that she dreams about you."
"That makes me happy so why should it embarrass her?"
