Leo's POV
I was sitting in the living room watching Friends when I heared the phone ring. Usually my dad would answer the phone but he was out , picking up my tux for prom. I got up and walked over to the house phone. I cleared my throat before answering because I hadn't talked in a while so my voice sounded weird.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Is that you Leo?" asked a panicky voice.
"Yes , who is this?" I asked.
"Taylor , listen , Sarah collapsed and is in hospital. Could you come down here?" asked Taylor.
"Oh s**t , I'm on my way" I said quickly. I then put down the phone , grabbed my jacket and ran outsite. Then I realised a bit too late that I didn't have any form of transport to get there. I'd have to run.
I ran for what felt like forever until I reached the hospital. I walked into the waiting room and Taylor ran up to me.
"Leo , she's in room number 143" said Taylor "That's quite ironic"
"Now is not the time to be ironic!" I said hurriedly "What way is it?"
She pointed to a room and then I walked to the room that said 143 Sarah James on the door. I knocked three times before entering. I saw Sarah lying in the hospital bed staring at the wall with a nurse next to her who was attatching a drip into her arm.
"What happened?" I asked as I sat down in the chair next to the bed.
"Luckily it's nothing serious , just some dehydration , we'll be keeping her in overnight" the nurse explained as she connected a tube to the canular in Sarah's arm.
"I'm sorry Leo" Sarah said.
"Sorry for what? You haven't done anything wrong" I said while I tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
"I'm going to miss senior prom" she said and a tear slipped down her face "You're still going to go , aren't you? I want you to go. I shouldn't ruin your night"
"Sarah , you're not ruining my night , I'm also not going to prom without you ok? That's crazy" I said "It would be no fun without you there"
"Thank you" she said and a small smile appeared on her face.
"You're going to be just fine , we've got you on a drip so you should be back to your normal self by morning. If you need anything then just give us a shout" said the nurse before leaving the room.
The Nurse's POV
It was heartbreaking for me to see this young couple miss their senior prom. I walked out of the room and up to the nurses lounge. I walked up to my boss to ask her something important.
"How is the patient in room 143?" she asked.
"She's ok health wise but she's a bit upset that her and her boyfriend are missing senior prom" I explained.
"That's too bad isn't it?" said my boss.
"I was thinking. We could decorate her room all prom-y and suprise her , it would make her so happy" I said.
"Fine , just don't upset any other patients and don't spend too much money on it. We have some decorations in reception from our last staff party that you can use" my boss said without looking up from her magazine.
"Should I send her downstairs to have dinner then?" I asked.
"Whatever" said my boss. I left the room happily and made my way to room 143. The boy was stood outside the room on the phone so I stopped around the corner so that I didn't interupt him.
"Hi , can you just take back the tux please dad? I won't be needing it" he said sadly so I walked around the corner and made a hand gesture that he should give me the phone. He handed over the phone to me and I began speaking to his dad.
"Hello? This is a nurse from the hospital. Could you not take back that tux? Bring it to the hospital because were setting up something special" I said happily. Then I gave the phone to the boy. He looked confused.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"We're setting up a mini prom for you" I said happily.
"Really? Thank you" he replied.
"We're having Sarah sent to go and eat and while she's eating we can decorate and you can get changed" I said. With that I went to get the decorations and began the plan.
