It was 5 hours later when Lara blinked and woke up. By the time she woke up Alice fast fast asleep with her head on Lara´s bedside, holding her hand. Lara was confused when she woke up and didn´t know where she was. Normally she would have run away, but she could barely move, and her head did hurt like hell. Slowly she remembered something about leaving the police station but after this everything went black. As Lara got used to her surroundings, which were obviously a hospital room, she watched Alice sleep. Lara grabbed the nurse alarm, and waited for nurse to come. A woman around 25 entered the room smiling. „So did sleeping beauty decide to wake up? You must have a really big guardian angel. You almost fainted on the street, and almost got hit by a car. Good news is that it is nothing serious, bad news you have to stay here a few days for some routine tests. By the way my name is Cora Sung. If you need anything just call me.“ Lara just nodded and smiled faintly. „How´d you get Alice here?“ Cora looked surprised at her. „You have her as closests of kin.“ Lara looked confused at her, she always had Dana or her parents as closests of kin, but never Alice. She would solve that mistery later, when her head would not feel like a train ran over it. Cora left the room and Alice yawned. She slowly woke up, much to Lara´s pleasure as her weight almost crashed Lara´s hand. Alice looked around the room for a moment and then at Lara, and smiled. „You really like to be center of attention?“ she asked smiling. „Uhhhmmm.“ was all Lara could reply to that as her brain refused to work right now. „Cora already told you right? You´ll have to stay a few days here. You need anything? Clothes? Towels? Toothbrush? Soap?“ There was the quirky, witty and charmind Alice that Lara liked so much again. „How about all of them? I stll have my bag packed in your appartment. Could you be so kind and bring it to me?“ Now she was confused, because suddenly her brain worked again. Alice smiled and nodded. „Yes, of course. I better leave now. Visitin hours are already over since 8 pm and it is already 11 pm. I better leave. You want me to leave?“ Lara was not sure what to answer and just shrugged. „You choose, Alice.“ Alice bit her lip and kissed Lara on her forhead before she left. „See you tommorow morning.“ With that Alice left Lara alone. „But at least she returns in the morning.“ Lara thought before she once again drifted off into a peaceful slumber.
