I've been here for the past 3 days.

I went home only once and got a bag of clothes but that's about it. I pretty much live here. All the nurses know me, same with the doctors.

I love most of the nurses and the doctors, but some of them could be straight up jerks.

Dr. Gunter was really rude. Always thinking he was better than me. He told me I had to leave on the second night, but luckily the head doctor came in and told him that I had special permission from him to stay as long as I wanted.

He was amazing. I guess he remembered me from when I stayed here with Ashton during the whole Jennie ordeal.

"Hey babe." Luke said walking in bringing me Chinese take out.

"Foooooooddddd." I said walking over him and taking the bag out of his hand.

"Am I not important?" He said pouting.

"No you're just the delivery boy." I said and he looked stunned.

"Boy?! I'm a manly man!" He said putting his fists on his hips and trying to bulk up his chest.

I laughed "Okay, delivery 'man' where's ma soy sauce." As soon as I said it his face dropped.

"Crap. Do you want me to go back?" He said. "No it's not a big deal I'll just have a plain egg roll." I said and he came at sat down next to me.

"So what have the doctors been saying?" He asked me.

"It's mostly good stuff. He's been getting better. Being responsive to all the tests and junk. They said the bullet barely skimmed his brain, so he should be waking up soon, but they have no idea what he's gonna be like." I said.

This scared me more than anything. What if he did wake up, but he wasn't my Michael? The one that was my best friend.

"That's good right? I mean we can explain to him who he was?" He said.

"No Luke. It's not like amnesia. He could have mental diseases. He could be a phsycopath, he could be special ed, he could forget every important thing in his life, how to eat, breathe, talk, anything Luke!" I yelled at the end getting agervated.

I had no idea why I just got mad and felt like yelling.

"Okay, I think you need a break from the hospital, how bout you let me take you out?" He asked grabbing my hand.

"Luke I don't want to leave Mic-" he cut me off. "Don't worry I called his mum and she said that she agreed and you should take a break."

I thought about it for a minute. "What are we doing?" I said and his eyes lit up.

"There's a person I really want you to meet." he said grinning.

"Who?" I said starting to get curious. I hated surprises with a passion.

"It's a surprise lets go back to your house and you can get ready." he said gathering up a few of my things.

"Hi Claire. Hi Luke." My mom waved at us as we walked in.

"Hi" we said at the same time bolting up the stairs before my mother could attack us with questions.

"What do I need to wear?" I said rummaging through my closet.

"Something kinda nice, but still casual." he said walking up beside me.

"How about this?" I said pulling out a cardigan, high waisted shorts, and a floral top.

"That's perfect." he said walking out so I could change.

I got dressed and pulled out some jewelry and put it on and started putting on some makeup.

I quickly curled my mint hair into loose ringlets.

I walked downstairs to see my mom and Luke sitting at the bar talking.

"What are you guys talking about?" I said walking into the kitchen.

"Your mom just told me about the guy who shot Mikey... I- I think I know who it was." Luke stuttered.

"Who?!" I practically yelled at him.

"It's- I. You wouldn't know him." he said. "Lets just go." he said. He seemed really really jumpy so I knew he was hiding something.

We got into the car and Time Bomb by All Time Low was on and Luke was silently singing along.

"Why don't you sing? I've heard you a little bit and you're actually really really good." I said and he shook his head.

"I don't know I guess I'm just kinda scared of embarrassment." he said.

"Well there's no way you can embarrass yourself infront of a loser like me so sing for meeee!" I said causing him to laugh.

"Well I can't if you're staring at me!" He said. "Fine I'll look out the window." I said and turned and he started singing.

Well there's no way out of this
So let's stay in
Every storm that comes,
Also comes to an end.
Oh, resistance is useless
Just two kids stupid and fearless
Like a bullet shooting the love-sick
There's only one way down this road

My jaw fell open. "Luke you are amazing!" I yelled at him.

"Um thanks. Were here." He said shutting off the car.

We walked up to the front door and flung it open.

"Mum! We're here!" He said and I'm pretty sure my eyes got bigger than ping pong balls.
