   It was embarrassing to have Eli and my parents have to help me with everything. I had broken my upper back damaging all my nerves throughout my right arm and some of my fingers in my left hand.
I got to go home today, it was different. Pumpkin was glad I was home. I looked over at Eli as we watched Doctor Who. Pumpkin was sitting next to us and kept nudging my hands to pet him.

"Yeah, do you need something?" Eli looked at me leaning his head on his hand.

"No, I'm just...glad you're here." I smiled at him.

"Yeah, of course, I mean like the accident was my fault," he started word vomiting.

"Eli just shut up, It's not your fault." I sighed.

"But..."

"Stop," I sighed looking him in the eyes.

"Okay..." he nodded and resting his hand on my arm. I could feel the butterfly's in my stomach start. I looked away as I could feel the rosy blush start to spread on my cheeks.
I yawned and stretched my arm up, "Are you spending the night?" I looked over.

"If that's okay with you and Pumpkin?" He pets him softly.

"That's fine with me but you gotta ask Pumpkin," I giggled looking over at them.

"Pumpkin can I spend the night with you and your dad?" He smiled petting him. He barked and lifted his head.

"I think that's a yes," I giggled. Eli got up and helped me up wrapping his arm around me. I grimaced in pain as Eli helped me to my room. He gently helped me lay down.

"Do you need the pain killers?" He asked picking up the orange bottle off of my dresser.

"Yeah," I sighed. This was so embarrassing. He helped me with the water and everything.

"Can I sleep in your bed like old times?" He asked taking his sling off and rubbing his eyes.

"Of course," I smiled as he crawled in next to me, "Is it okay if we can cuddle?"

"Yeah," Eli scooted closer to me and gently wrapped his arms around my waist. I could feel him hold my hands, "Is this okay?"

"Mhm," I nodded as he pulled me closer. I miss how things used to be. Neither of us talked about how we used to share little kisses and how we would cuddle every chance we got.
I didn't even know what I was? I didn't ever have any LGBT friends or family to explain it to me.
I got butterflies every time we touched. Did that just mean I was nervous or was it because I was in love with my best friend?
