After what had just happened Ashley just tried to go through/gather her thoughts once again. Then she was so upset over what had just happened. Ashley decided to just go to bed. She needed time to process things.
Ashley had become so upset over what happened that Ashley had developed fever. Nick had been phoning Ashley the whole morning & afternoon. Then in the evening after Nick had finished his work Nick immediately rushed to Ashley's place. Ashley's friend Nick had the keys to her apartments just in case of any emergency. Nick walked in the room & saw that things were all the floor, like a tsunami had ransacked the place. Worried that something may have happened to to Ashley, Nick walked into Ashley's bedroom with caution. There Nick was relieved to see that Ashley was just sleeping. Nick went to see Ashley & as he went to check on her, her body was on fire. Nick called the ambulance & immediately Ashley was rushed to the hospital.
In the hospital. Nick paid the hospital bill after all the necessary procedures were finished. Nick later brought Ashley home & cleaned up her house at the same time. Nick later gave Ashley the medicines prescribed by the doctor & made her take rest. While giving Ashley the medication Nick noticed bruises on her hands. Nick didn't want to upset Ashley by asking her about the bruises so he kept it to himself & waited for the perfect time to ask her about them.
Ashley's fever broke only 3 days later. Till then Nick was with her the whole time making sure that she was alright.
Ashley: Nick, Is that you?
Nick: Yes babe it's me.
Ashley: Why are you here?
Nick: Don't get me started right now!!! I should be asking you the questions.
Then later Ashley told Nick everything as to what happened. Ashley broke down while telling the details. Nick had never ever seen Ashley cry before & it hurt him that he saw his best friend crying.
Nick: I'm sorry darling that you had to go through this alone. I'm here for you now. If anything just call me I will come immediately. I have to go back to work now & will come back in the evening to check on you again okay?
Ashley: Okay. Thank you.
Nick: Thanks for what? Taking care of you? You're my most special friend ever. I'll be here for you.
Ashley: Hehehe...I'm gonna take a shower & go back to my daily routine. See you in the evening.
