I Got You (Michael Clifford Fanfiction)

Chapter 24 - The Hospital

Michael's POV

I can't believe I just kissed her. Yeah it may have been on her cheek but I still did it. I slowly shut the door to her room and walked over to the kitchen with a big smile on my face. I probably looked like an idiot with this stupid grin, but I don't care.

Everyone is now in the living room so I took this opportunity to sneak a few gummy bears. Once I was finished I told them I was going to make a phone call. I stepped outside the room into the hall of the hotel. I took the elevator down to the lobby and walked over to the lady behind the counter. "Hello, may I help you?" She said in those very fake voices of theirs. "Yes can you give me the number to the closest hospital?" I didn't want to go too far and there had to be one close enough to walk to since we were in the city. "Yes hold on," she said "there is one right down the street and the number it 1-800-123-4567.". "Ok, thank you so much." I said.

I walked back to the elevator only to be stopped by someone behind me. "OMG, ITS YOU. YOUR MICHAEL CLIFFORD FROM 5SOS!!" I thought my ears were going to explode. I turned around and saw a girl in a shirt that was way to small and tight for her. Her hair was a bleach white with some black roots showing. She had on a pair of white shorty-shorts and some converse. "Hi, you want a picture or something?" I asked. I wanted to get up stairs quick so I could call the hospital and ask if I should take Mari in or not. I didn't know how serious her memory problems sounded to a professional so I might as well ask."YEA, CAN YOU GIVE ME A KISS ON THE CHEEK!" She was still yelling which was a bit annoying, but not all fans are quiet. I gave her a quick peck on the cheek and told her I had to go.

Kissing that girl felt wrong. I felt like I was betraying Mari even though we weren't even dating. Luke and Sky might be dating because I think I heard them getting it on last night. OH MY GOD GET THAT IMAGE OUT OF MY HEAD! God, I can't imagine little Luke doing that, plus why would I want to.

I got back to our room to see the guys watching a movie. Sky was sitting over in the kitchen watching them. She looked bummed so I tried to cheer her up. "Hey Sky," she turned and faced me, "do you want to help me call the hospital for Mari?" As soon as those words escaped my mouth I knew it was a mistake. Her face grew with concern she started yelling out questions "what?! Is she ok?! Did she hurt herself?! Did you hurt her?! Why are you calling the hospital?!" By now all of the boys had their attention focused on us and I had to try and explain. "I'm just calling the hospital so I can talk to someone and ask them if Mari's memory problem is serious enough for him/her to take a look at her. She is fine and I told her to lie down and rest for a minute before I got the hospital number from the desk lady in the lobby." Everyone's faces were now calm and I did no help with Sky's bummed mood.

I grabbed my phone and stepped into Mari's room. She was just going to sleep when I walked in so when she saw me her eyes opened back up and she laid there. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up. I'm just going to cal the hospital." She gave me a pout as I was about to leave until she spoke, "please stay, I'll only be distracted if you are gone.". I couldn't deny the sweet sound that was her voice. I started to walk towards the bed when I stopped myself. "But I'll only distract you if I am here." I said. I thought she would back down until she spoke again, "then teach me how to focus.". I couldn't stop myself this time I crawled into bed with her and pulled my phone out.

~~after calling the hospital~~

They want me to bring her in just for a check up. Last night one of her secrets that she told me was that she is afraid of the doctors office and hospitals. She said it reminded her of dying and pain. "You told me you are afraid of hospitals and doctors last night." I told her. I wanted to let her know that I knew what she was feeling right now. "Yup. I hate the hospital and every time I go to one all I can think about is..." She paused. Something was holding her back. Some pain that she wasn't letting out. "You don't have to tell me, I get it." She thought for a moment, "but I want to. I understand now why I told you all my secrets last night. You are a good person to talk to...hospitals remind me of when I mom was in them. She had breast cancer twice and she almost died the second time. I was 6 and she had just had my twin brother and sister. I thought I was going to lose her." A tear fell from her eyes. She was facing me so I held her cheek and rubbed it off with the pad of my thumb. "Ok, well let's get you ready to go that way we can be quick to get out of there." She smiled and got out of bed to get dressed.
