Lexi POV
Im watching the news...it says that sick fuck got caught and is in the slammer. The doctor says i wont be able to talk for a long time and that me talking to Hope before just damaged my throat more.
D: now the mayor actually said it'd be best you don't get held for a week in jail
L: hm?
D: however you will not be aloud to leave here unsupervised either you will need a chaperone
How fucking old do i look? why the hell? bitch i'd rather be in jail then be stuck with someone i don't know for like a week
D: the mayor did actually get a volunteer
Yeah sure "volunteer" wonder how much she paying em-
H: *clears throat* hi
L: HELL *coughs* h-hell no
Ugh my throat burns like hell...damn it...
D: ms.lexi i really do suggest you refrain from talking for the time being
Like HELLLLLLL ima go home with her are you kidding? i don't need people thinking were dating or some shit.
H: look no one else was gonna do it okay?
G: *groans*
They can't seriously think i'm okay with this
D: with all do respect lexi if you have something to say about it...say it
L: grrrr
H: do you wanna get out of here or not
Of fucking COURSE i do...hospital food is gross...the bed aint comfy...its kinda chilly...and every time i *BREATH* someones checking on me. She sits next to me and i turn my back...about 2 hours pass and she talks.
H: look i'm staying with ya all week so are ya sure ya wanna spend it in here?
L: *groans*
FINE okay fucking FINE only to get the fuck outta here. I get up, sign the paperwork and she drives me to my place. I flop onto the sofa.
H: can i see the damage?
L: n-
H: hey ya heard what the doc said ya can risk losing your voice forever just don't talk
I shake me head and she gives me this look...fine geez if it gets her to stop using that puppy dog face on me. I slowly unravel the wrap from my neck since the doc did say it was okay...it did make we wince a lil getting it off.
H: *gasp* it really was burned from the inside out
L: *sigh*
Yeah my neck is visibly burned...its red like a bad sunburn its the INSIDE that got the most damage even my nose. She goes to touch it and i grab her hand and jerk it away. Like hell shes touching me... she don't know how this shit hurts
H: s-sorry um *clears throat* so are you hungry?
L: *nods head*
Hope POV
That burn just looks awful...i wish i knew why she had a sudden grudge. I guess there goes the whole dating thing...oh well it probably wouldn't have went well anyways. The doc says eating would hurt so i made her a fruit smoothie. She gave me this weird look when i gave it to her.
H: what its a smoothie? they said it was one of the best options...what never had a smoothie or something aha
L: *nods head*
H: wait are you for rizzle?
L: *nods head*
H: oh...then um try it? *chuckle*
She rolls her eyes and starts drinking with the straw. I swear her eyes light up in the good way not all like glowing red and shit.
L: mmm
H: yanno?...your weird
L: *chokes for a sec* huh?
H: like i mean i get youve only been here for abouta year and all but like youve somehow managed to stay...scary and...unwilling to give chances like...lossen up would ya? if ya give out bad energy bad energy's just gonna come back at ya
L: *rolls eyes*
