POV MILLIE

My phone wakes me up. I reach for my phone and the pain rushes threw my arms. 'Hello.' I mumble in the phone. 'Where are you? We were suposed to meet up right?' Finn asks from the otherside of the line. 'Yeah sorry i forgot to call you last night.' I did not forgot. I dogde. How in the hell do you tell your boyfriend that your ex boyfriend and you fought and you fell against a mirror and had glass in your arms? Yeah, you don't. 'Are you okay?' Finn asks and i sigh. 'I'm in the hospital.' I mumble but clearly Finn heard it. 'What? What happend? Are you okay? Which hospital?' Finn asks. 'In the elizabeth-mary hospital or something.' I mumble and i hear Finn close a door in the background. 'Text me your roomnumber, i will be there in 10 minutes.' Finn says and he hangs up. I lay down my phone on the nightstand and i sigh. 'I heard part of that.' Mom says and she hands me a cup of coffee. 'What should i say?' I ask and Mom smiles. 'I can't tell you that.' She smiles. 'Should i lie? Or not?' I ask and mom laughs. 'If you lie, it can always come out and that would be worse.' She smiles and i shake my head. 'He'll be mad.' I mumble and mom stops laughing. 'Can you blame him?' She ask and i look up. 'But it wasn't even Jacobs fault and i fell and it was an accident.' I try and mom smiles again. 'Tell him that.' She smiles and i sigh again. 'The doctors will come in like an hour so you'll be saved.' Mom smiles and she stands up. She walks out and i hear her say Hi to someone so i get ready. 'Hey.' I smile at Finn and he looks at my arms. 'What happend?' He asks and he carefully grabs my arm. 'You can't get mad.' I mumble softly and Finn frowns. 'Promise me?' I ask and Finn nods. 'Jacob came by and we had a fight.' I start and i study Finns face. 'And then he pushed me and i stepped back.' I mumble and Finns face changes from worried to mad. 'But i tripped over a coat and i fell against the mirror.' I continue before Finn can say anything. 'And in a reflex, i lifted my arms so the glass would get in my head. So that why you know..' I end the story and point to my arms. Finn stays awfully quiet. 'Finn?' I ask and he looks at me. Mad. 'I'm sorry. But it was an accident.' I mumble and Finn sighs. 'Why aren't you talking?' I ask and Finn his mad face softens a bit. 'Because i promised i wouldn't get mad.' He says and I grab his hand. 'It was an accident really. I just fell.' I say again and Finn looks at me. 'Why didn't you call me?' He asks and i smile. 'I didn't know what to say.' I mumble and look down at our hands. 'Does it hurt?' He asks and i nod. 'But the painkillers help a lot.' I mumble when Finns face switches back to worried. 'You should have called.' He says and i nod. 'I know.' I look down again. 'Forgive me?' I ask and Finn smiles. 'And jacob?' He asks after a while. 'He called a few times but i didn't really feel like awnsering.' I mumble and study Finns face again. Finn mumbles something that i can't quite hear. 'What?' I ask and Finn smiles. 'Nothing.' He mumble and i open my mouth to protest but the doctor walks in. 'Goodmorning.' He says and i mumble something like that back. He looks at my arms and asks a few questions. 'Someone will get you in an hour or two for photo's. If we can't see anymore glass you can go home.' The doctor says and i thank him. 'How was the rest of your birthday?' I ask Finn and he smiles. 'Good. I really liked it.' He smiles and i grab his hand again. 'Did your grandparents like it?' I ask and Finn nods. 'Yeah, they like that their included again.' He smiles and so do i. My phone rings and i grab it, trying to ignore the stabbing pain in my arms. JACOB the screen says. I look at it for a while and then press the red icon. 'Let me guess.' Finn says and i smile. 'Jacob.' He asks and i nod. '100 points for you.' I smile and drop the phone. 'Are you mad at him?' Finn asks and i shake my head. 'Not about the falling into the mirror part, but the argument part was bad.' I mumble and Finn frowns. 'What did he say?' Finn asks and i smile. 'Secrets are the key to healthy relationships.' I smile and Finn frowns even deeper. 'I think no secrets are the key to healthy relationships.' He says and i bite my lip. 'He just said things he all ready said before. About Melody and me and wel...You.' I mumble and i look up to see Finns reaction. 'You don't have to spear my feelings Millie. I know what they think of me.' He smiles and now it's my turn to frown. 'That doesn't matter. They don't even know you.' I mumble and digg threw my thoughts. They didn't even ask him anything all night. 'I don't mind and it's not like i want to know them either.' Finn says. 'And by pushing you into a mirror Jacob really lost my nice thoughts about him too.' FInn his tumb moves over one of the small wounds in my arm. 'But that was an accident.' I mumble and Finn looks up. 'One that he caused.' He says and i shake my head. 'So your not going to believe that it was an accident?' I ask with disbelieve in my voice. 'Millie come on, if i would call you from the hospital because my ex girlfriend pushed me and i fell into a mirror you wouldn't either.' He says and i open my mouth to protest but i know that what he says is true. 'Can't you try?' I ask and Finn smiles. 'I promised you i would't get mad so if i was you i wouldn't push it.' He smiles and i do too.

'We found 5 more glass parts that really need to get out.' The doctor says and i frown. 'How?' I ask and doctor smiles. 'We will paralize your arms again and then we will make a small cut, get the glass out and  then stitch the wounds.' The doctor says and he types something on the latop. I look at mom and she smiles. A nurse comes in and they give me the shot again. they make a small cut but i don't feel a thing. They get the glass out, all of them and then they stitch the wounds. 'All done. You can go home now.' The doctor smiles and we walk out of the room. 'Do you still not feel your arms?' Finn asks when he helps me get in the car. 'No. It is really odd.' I mumble and Finn smiles. Mom drives insanly carful. Normally we are home in like 15 minutes but now we are home in 25 minutes. 'You didn't have to go so slow.' I say and mom looks worried. 'I did, i didn't want you to be in pain.' She says and i laugh. 'I can't even feel my arms.' I laugh and mom opens the door for me. The glass is still on the floor. I walk past it very fast and sit down on the couch. After a while i dicided to take a shower, which is harder then you think with paralyzed arms. Finn sits on my bed when i come back from the shower. I throw him the towel and he catches it. 'Can you dry my hair?' I ask. I can't lift my arms higher as my shoulders. Finn nods and i sit down in front of him. He dries my hair with some tips here and there and puts it up in a ponytail. 'Thank you.' I smile and i lay my head against Finns warm chest. 'Do the painkillers still work?' Finn ask and i hum. 'Are you tired?' Finn asks and i hum again. He chuckels a bit and he presses his lips against my head. 'Millie?' Mom yells from downstairs and i sit up straight. 'Yeah?' I yell back but mom stays quiet. I push myself to get up and walk down the stairs. Mom points to the door. I look threw the small window and Jacob his shiloutte stands there. 'What is he doing here?' I ask mom and she shrugs. 'He wouldn't leave.' Mom says and i look at the door. 'You know i can hear that?' Jacob says from behind the door. No. i can't deal with this now. Not with Finn near and not when i am tired and not when i'm high on shots and painkillers. 'Tell him to go.' I tell mom and she shakes her head. 'He wouldn't.' She says and stands up to give me more privacy i guess, but that doesn't help. Can't she just send him away? Far away? 'Millie come on.' I hear from behind my door and something inside of me snaps. I walk to the door with big steps and open it. 'What do you want from me? Go away. How many times do i have to tell you that?' I snap and Jacob looks at my arms. 'I am so sorry.' He says and i laugh. 'Just go.' I snap and try to close the door. 'Millie come on.' Jacob says again and i let go of the door. 'Or what? You'll find another mirror to throw me against?' I snap and by the look on his face i can tell that he wants to leave at this point. 'Thats not fair. I didn't mean to.' Jacob says and he looks down. 'Look, I'll text you tomorrow, but right now i have a guest and i am really tired so bye.' I mumble and close the door but Jacob stops it again. 'And that guest is Finn?' He asks and i nod. 'Why?' Jacob asks with disbelieve. 'Not this again.' I mumble but that doesn't stop him. 'He is not good enough for you.' Jacob snaps and i shake my head. 'Just stop Jacob. Stop.' I snap and i try and close the door once more. He pushes it open again and now steps into the house. 'Go away.' I snap and Jacob stands still. 'No.' He snaps and feel like hitting him if my arms didn't hurt so much. 'I think she made herself clear.' Finns voice says from behind me and Jacob laughs. 'Shut up.' He snaps at Finn. 'Maybe you should do that too.' Finn snaps back and i clap my hands. 'Stop this. You go back there and you go away.' I yell and both Finn and Jacob look at me. 'Now.' I yell loud and surprisingly both Finn and Jacob do what i say. I close the door behind jacob and i sigh. 'Sorry.' Finn says when i walk back into the kitchen. 'I just got irritated.' He says and i force myself to smile. 'I know.' I mumble and i sit down next to Finn. 'Are you mad?' He asks and i shake my head. 'No, Just tired.' I lay my head on Finn his shoulder and sigh. 'Well off to bed then.' Finn smiles and he pushes me to the stairs.
