'And the victim was surprisingly cute..'
I was walking home after a night on the town, the air was cold and crisp and I could hear the snow crunch under my feet as I walk. The nights here seem to get longer and longer, I never really know when the sun will truly rise.
I'm lost in my own thoughts as I trip and fall face first on the cold icy ground 'damn ice' I thought to myself, but as I look up I see what really tripped me.
He was just laying there. At first I thought he was just drunk, as most are in this area, but then I saw the blood. It covered his nose and mouth, his body was cold and almost unmoving, he was here for awhile.
I take off my jacket, wrap it around him and pick him up. He feels light in my arms. I carefully make my way to the hospital as to not trip on the snow.His eyes fluter open as we are walking. I don't even notice he's awake until I hear him speak.
"Hello?" He whispers. I look down at him, our eyes lock for a second before I quickly look away
"Are you ok?"
"Everything hurts and I'm so cold."
"Yeah you were definitely out here awhile." I take a quick glance at him and he's watching the snow fall onto the ground in-front of us as we walk. "What's your name." I think I scared him a little as he seemed to jump a bit
"Xander" he looks up at me, "what about you?"
"Don't worry about it" he sighs
"Come on, I at least want to know the name of the person that saved my life."
"I didn't save your life, I'm sure you would have been fine until morning."
"Then why did you help me?"We finally make it to the hospital, the change in air feels awful. I've never been in a hospital before. The air is stale and all you can smell is body odor and cleaning products. I walk up to the front desk, unsure of what to say.
"Hi, what brought you to the ER today?"
"Oh, I-" I hesitate "I found him outside in the cold" I gesture down at him
"Right" the front desk lady quick disappears and comes back with a wheelchair and helps me put Xander on. She quickly walked him down a hallway as another nurse comes up to me.
"And are you okay as well?" My eyes glance over to where Xander was taken "he will be fine, he's in good hands." I nod my head "Now can you tell me what happened?"
After explaining the story the nurse says I'm free to go if I'd like but that Xander might be here for a few days at least.'Should I come visit him? I should probably make sure he's alright after everything that happened'
