Y/N POV

I was waiting for the doctor to come back and tell me the results. I'm currently just sitting here with an ice pack and a lot of pain. On the bed next to mine came a male around my age. The doctor closed the curtain between us, he didn't look all too good. "Y/l/n y/n, I got your results." I looked up. "How bad is it?" I ask. "It's not as bad as it looks. Well your nose is broken but we expected worse." He tells me. "Hooray." I say sarcastically.

"With a simple surgery we can realign your nose. After a few days or sometimes a week or two it'll be totally healed." He tells me. "Weeks?" I ask in shock. "Yes. But you'll be given extra medication to reduce the pain and swelling." He says. "Damn." I groan. "You'll have to wait a little longer before we can start on your surgery, but you can already fill in these forms." He hands me a few documents and a pen. I was filling it all in when suddenly the curtain opens. "Hi!" The voice startled me. "What are you here for?"

"Broken nose." I tell the man. "Ouch, how did that happen?" He asks me. I went to my cousin's football game, three guesses on what happened." I sigh. "Ball thrown in the face?" He says questionable. "Correct. But what about you?" I ask. "Twisted ankle, might be also broken." He tells me. "That sucks, how did you do it?" I ask. "Dance practice." He says. "Oh so you dance?" I ask. "I'm an idol." He says with a small smile. "Oh sorry that I didn't recognise you." I awkwardly chuckle. "It's totally fine, honestly I like it better than if you would've recognised me and started freaking out or something."

I finished filling in the forms and sat on the side of the bed so I could properly face him. "What's your name?" He asks. "Y/n, what about yours?" I ask. "Everyone calls me Ten." He says. "Are you sure it's just your nose that's broken?" He suddenly asks. "Yes why?" I ask. "The part under your eyes is swelling up as well, a little concerning if you'd ask me." He says. "No it's normal. That happens when you break your nose." I say. "Are you sure?"

"My mom's a surgeon, I'm sure. She's had more people with broken noses." I tell him. "A doctor in the family, I see." We both laughed. "Ouch, no you can't make me laugh." I say. "Sorry. But your laugh is cute though." He compliments me. "Thank you but right now nothing's beautiful about me, my face is swollen and my nose is blue." I say. "I'm sure, without the swelling, that you're really pretty." He tells me. "I wanna say thanks but you've never seen me before so nah." I shook my head. "Don't be so negative about yourself." He scolds me.

"It's just a fact." I say. "Sir they're ready for a scan." The nurse came to get Ten. "Bye y/n. Oh that's by the way a beautiful name for a beautiful girl like you." He winks. "I'm not but thanks. And good luck." The nurse took him away in a wheelchair. "Found love at the emergency room?" The doctor scared me. "Gosh! No, he was just being nice." I say. "He was being flirty." He says. "No." I shook my head. "Whatever you believe but mrs y/l/n is ready for surgery." He says. "My mom? Really?"

"I'm sorry, but she was free at the moment, we're actually really busy today." He tells me. "Y/n, how did this happen?" Mom appears all worried. "I'm never going to a high school football game again." I tell her. "Oh no, we'll get you ready okay. And tonight come to our house, I'll make sure your dad cooks your favourite." She tells me. "Mom, I'm not a child. I live on my own, I can take care of myself." I tell her. "Yet you're here at the hospital." She says. I look at the doctor. "Like I said she was the only one available at the moment."

"You're awake." My eyes scanned the room and I see mom. "How do you feel?" She asks. "It hurts." I say. "You're having painkillers at the moment, we can't give you more." She says. "Do I have a pretty nose again?" I ask. "Y/n a nose surgery is actually breaking it a second time to realign it. You know how it looks now." She says. "Great. But it'll look again like how it did before right?" I ask. "Just rest now. At the end of my shift I'll drive you home."

I was signing some last papers at the reception. "I'll go get the car already, you'll be fine right?" Mom asks. "Yes yes, you can go already." I tell her. "Hey there." I look next to me and see Ten. "Hi." I tried smiling but it hurt. "So the operation went good?" He asks. "Of course it was my mom, who else." I sigh. "She was just a little too worried about me." I tell him. "Aw that's so cute." He says. "Maybe yeah." I nod. "But how is it with your ankle?" I ask.

"It isn't broken but I have to walk with crutches and rest a couple of weeks." He tells me. "Then I wish you a fast recovery." I tell him. "Thank you. You too by the way." He smiles at me. "Bye Ten." I walked away after waving at him. "Wait y/n!" He came after me with his crutches. "What's wrong?" I ask. "Nothing just... can I maybe have your number?" He asks me. "My number? Sure." We shared phone numbers. "Maybe we could go out sometime after our recoveries." He says. "I'd like that. Bye Ten, take care." I tell him. "Thanks and you be careful when going to a football game again." We both laughed.
