I sit there trying to listen closely as Carson sits up groaning in pain, I help him up so he isn't in as much pain and I sit there playing with my thumbs as I wait. He walks into the bathroom and I grab my phone and scroll down Tumblr and Instagram and wait for him. When he walks back into the room, I see his eyes are red and puffy from what seems like he has been crying and I look him scared and confused, "What's wrong baby?" I say as he climbs back into the bed groaning from pain again.

"Nothing baby girl, just some stuff I will have to deal with once I'm out of here." I just nod my head scared to know what he meant. I sit there chewing on my lip as I put my phone back down on the window sill so it can charge. "Now, back to what we were talking about baby girl," I see a smile appear back onto his face and I smile again brightly. We continue to talk until a nurse walks into the room at 9PM and says "Ma'am, visiting hours are ending, and unless you are family or a married spouse, I hace to ask you to leave." I sigh and run my fingers through my wavy hair and look over at him "Yes ma'am thank you." I get up and I give him a kiss, "I will be back here in the morning, I love you." I grab my phone charger and my phone as I pick my bag up and I walk towards the door. As I am walking out Carson says " I love you too gorgeous." I smile and blush looking back at him as I walk out "see you tomorrow baby." I walk out to the truck and I drive the hour way home listening to country music the entire way home and I walk into the house and change into one of Carson's shirts and pajama shorts and I climb into bed, plugging my phone into the iDock putting on "Thinking Out Loud," by Ed Sheeran and falling asleep tired from everything that has happened. I wake up in a cold sweat covering my body in a thin sheet from a nightmare I had about Landon. I pull my clothes off that were sticking to my skin and I go and climb into the shower and I stand there crying scrubbing my skin almost raw again. I get out and walk into my room in just a towel and I grab my phone and call Carson.

"Hello?" I hear him say as he yawns from just being woken up. "Sorry for waking you up baby, I had a bad dream and wanted to talk to you," I say with tears in my eyes thinking about the nightmare.

"What happened in the dream babygirl?" I hear him say through the phone. "The rape was replaying in my head and this time he actually killed you..." I say as I am holding tears in my eyes stopping them from flowing so Carson doesn't hear me crying. "Baby, no one is ever going to hurt you again, I promise..." I hear him say that softly and I feel my heart swell with love and happiness.
We talk for an hour before I start to yawn and feel my eyes getting tired. "Baby, I'm getting tired, I will be up there after school and practice. I promise. I love you." I say as I pull Carson's shirt over my completely nude body. "I love you too babygirl. Goodnight gorgeous." We hang up and I fall asleep instantly as hours later that felt like minutes and I shower and then put on a pair of jeans and I look over at the calendar and notice I have a game today and I sigh sitting onto the bed putting my face into my hands. "Fuck." I groan as I sigh and stand up grabbing my phone and texting Carson telling him I have a game today and probably won't make to the hospital. I put on my jersey and French braid my hair back tying it off with a clear rubber band and then tying a ribbon around the rubber band of our school colors. I slide on a pair of open toe sandals that show off my pedicure I got about a week or so ago and it still looks like I just got them done. I grab my book bag and my soccer bag and I walk out the house, grabbing my truck keys.
I dread through the school day not wanting to even be there, wishing I was at the hospital with Carson. Once the final school bell rings I walk out to the field house to change. I change into my game shorts and socks as I hit my cleats against the wall getting the mud out of my cleats and I slide them onto my feet, lacing them up and I grab my shin guards holding them in my hand and I walk out onto the field. I sit down on the turf and I slide my shin guards on my legs and I sigh as I stand up and I walk towards the sidelines and stand there watching our girls lacrosse team practice on the back field. I am mesmerized by how the girls move across the field. Before I notice the referees are asking for captains to come up to talk. I walk up and we decide on the goal and before we know it the game is tied, 4-4, with only 2 minutes left. I have the ball dribbling it down the field and I take a shot and it goes in and when I look up there is Carson sitting in the stands walking over to me from the bleachers. I look up as the buzzer goes off for the end of the game. I stand there with tears in my eyes as I watch Carson walk over and wrap his arms around me. "You did an amazing job princess. I didn't want to tell you I was getting out the hospital because I wanted to surprise you." I wrap my arms around his shoulders and start to fully cry, "I love you so much Carson Bryant." We stand there for what felt like forever until I see the field lights go out and we walk out to the truck after I change from my uniform into some spandex shorts and a cut off over my sports bra. I grab both of my bags and I walk out to the truck and I climb into the drivers side of cab. "

"Clarissa, I love you...so much baby..." I hear Carson say as he holds my hand that I'm not using to drive with. "So are we going back to my house baby?" I say as I look over to figure out if I need to turn right or left from the school to go home or to his. "I need some clothes, so let's go by there and then we can go to yours since tomorrow is Saturday." I nod my head and I turn right and drive to his and pull into the driveway and I wait for him to come out. He comes out with a book bag with clothes and I pull out and start the hour drive to the house. Once I pull in then we walk in and I throw my uniform and soccer stuff in the washer along with the clothes from the night before that were still drenched from my sweat. I walk into the kitchen and I look into the fridge and freezer for something to eat for me and Carson. I pull out a pizza and throw it into the oven. "Baby, will you watch the pizza, I'm going to go jump into the shower." He nods as he sits on the couch watching tv as I walk towards my room and grab my towel and some pajamas. When I get out of the shower, Carson is cutting the pizza as we grab s couple slices and we sit on the couch watching "Street Outlaws." I lay my plate in the sink as we get tired and get ready for bed. I fall asleep instantly in his arms as soon as I hit the bed. I wake up the next morning with yelling from what sounded like my mom and I wake up instantly "CLARISSA NICOLE! GET YOUR ASS UP NOW!" I jump out of bed hoping Carson didn't wake up from my moms yelling...
