Eli

     After hearing what Demetri said I was heartbroken. I just sat in my mom's car silently as we drove home. She didn't even question what happened. I got out and went straight to my room, I took off my sling. I made a fist with my hand and shook it slightly as my arm probably wasn't all the way healed. I sighed and just laid on my bed and stared up at the ceiling.
I grabbed my phone as I got texts from Miguel.

Miguel:
We just explained everything to Demetri, he doesn't remember like that past month and a half. But he does know that you guys made up.

Eli:
Oh okay. Thanks.

     I sat next to Demetri's bed, he was working with the doctors on his hand strength.
Did I really fuck up this badly that I damaged him?
He couldn't move his arms, hands and fingers on his own. I bit my lip nervously and looked down. I wasn't sure what to do or how I could help him.
Or explain that I was in love with him.
The nurse finished what she was doing and left and he turned to look at me. Tears were brimming his eyes and I could see his lip quivered slightly.

"Hey hey don't cry," I got up and hugged him. He hugged back weakly and I felt my shirt start to dampen from his tears.
"You're gonna be okay I promise," I rubbed his back and gently held him in my chest. The same way he would when I would cry about getting bullied. It's like we had switched spots and it was all my fault.
He pulled away and I helped him wipe his tears away.

"B-but are you okay?" He sniffled and looked at me with his big glossed-over eyes.

"Yeah I'm fine," I smiled looking at him.

"Can we hold hands?" He asked and looked down instantly.

"Of course," I smiled and picked up his right hand clasping it with my not-hurt hand. We sat in a comfortable silence till I could hear his soft snores. I set down his hand and kissed his forehead gently pushing away the messy black hair.
This was all my fault.
