Maximus walked into the room holding a glass of water and what looked like medication.
"It's Tuesday evening. You were knocked out for a few hours. We ended up calling the main nurse. Her name was Savannah. She said you should take one of these. It'll prevent you from getting any headaches," Maximus offered, coming over to hand me the glass of water and a pill from the foil package.
"That's why we made food! Savannah said you need to take it with food or it'll make your stomach upset," Zane stressed.
"But we didn't know if you would want more of a breakfast meal or lunch meal since you missed both," Kage added.
"So you guys made both?" I asked, giving the three of them a wide smile as thanks before taking the pill, drinking a good half of the chilled water which tasted normal, and not laced with Nixon’s magic.
"Yup. We wanted you to have variety," Zane said proudly.
Braxton slapped his head.
"Ow! What did I do?" Zane whined.
"It was my idea to give her different kinds of food. Don't stand there and act like I did nothing,” he growled.
Kage chuckled.
"Zane got caught."
He kept laughing and I smiled at the three brothers, noticing how close they were.
It made me wonder if Braxton waited until his brothers got into Brighten before applying so he could go with them. But Kage could have gotten in last year.
Maybe something happened.
I looked down to my food, wondering what I wanted first.
Since the soup was still steaming hot, I decided to start with the pancakes.
"Want me to feed you, Jewel?" Nixon offered.
"I should feed her since it's my fault she got injured," Braxton pointed out.
"Can we feed her since we made the food?" Kage asked as Alice roamed about on his shoulder.
"Ya, we volunteer to feed Jewel!" Zane enthused.
"I brought her medication and was actually listening when Savannah was explaining all the symptoms to watch out for. I should get to feed her," Maximus insisted.
"No one is feeding her," Logan sighed.
I snickered which turned into a full laugh, causing all of them to stare at me.
"Was laughing a side effect, Maximus?" Kage asked.
"To be honest, I wasn't paying attention to half of the things she said,” he confessed, making me laugh harder.
"I'm sorry. I’ve just never met a group of guys who get along so well." I continued to giggle.
"We don't get along," they all declared.
"Sure," I replied sarcastically.
Once I was done with my giggle fit, I turned to look at Braxton.
"So did they tell you about me?" I asked.
