I didn't see my dad the rest of the day, I felt awful right now. Josh stayed with me in my room all day, even though the doctors released him, he didn't want to leave me. I fell asleep for about an hour then woke up. “Morgan, I am sure he is just processing all this information,” he kisses my head. I sit up, ignoring the pain, “let's go, I need to get out of here,” I said swinging my legs over the side of the bed and getting up. Bad idea on my part, I grabbed the bed for support, “Morgan, you can't just leave. You have to wait for the okay from the doctor,” He pulls me back down. I looked at him, “Josh I can rest at home just like here,” I begged. He rolled his eyes, “And how am I supposed to convince the nurse this,” He asked. I smiled, “Go work your charm on her. She looked not much older than you,” I smirked, I had no problem with him flirting if it meant I got out of this place. He kisses me then pulls away, “The things I do for you,” He gets up and leaves.
About ten minutes later he walks in. “Well how did it go?” I asked holding back a smile. He gave me the look, “You owe me big time, she was a clingy freak,” He said getting my bag. I laughed, “I love you,” I said to him as he helped me up. He looked down at me, “Yeah, you love me so much you sacrificed me to the nurse,” he smiled. I kissed his cheek and we started our slow walk to his car. I am pretty sure it took us twenty minutes, since my stomach was killing me every step, and he was still sore. Once we finally got to it he helped me in, then he got in. “To your house,” He said. I looked at him, “Um, no way not after what just went down with Liz and my dad, I think I will pass on that idea,” I said looking out the window. He sigh, “Morgan, you can't hide forever, you have to face them sooner or later.” I hated when he was right.
After awhile I gave up and agreed to go to my house, Josh was happy about it. It was about a short drive there, we sat in the drive way for awhile, all our friends were pulling in. They ran up to the car, of course Kassie pushed past everyone and basically jumped in the window and hugged me carefully. I laughed, only Kass would climb through the car window to hug me. Josh got out laughing and opened the door for me. All the boys took turns hugging me, “Where's Allison?” I asked them. Chase was the first to speak, “Inside with Zac, I guess he needed someone to keep him clam.” He paused, “He told us about Liz,” He said softly, then everyone was silent. I looked at them, “Yeah, but it's over now. If she wont leave I will, I don't care anymore,” I said leaning on Kass who was still hugging me.
After awhile of talking, Josh started pulling me toward the house. “Ugh, I can't do it. It is going to take me about ten minutes just to walk up the stairs to get in the house,” I whined. All of them laughed. “Fine, then you will get a piggy back ride,” Josh said with a smile. I looked at him shocked, “Um, you just had stitches removed no way are you carrying me,” I said. Then he laughed, “Not from me, Chase,” He looked at Chase who was already down low enough for me to get on. “You guys are crazy,” I laughed getting on his back, he lift me with no problem. I wrapped my arms around his neck so I wouldn't fall, “Don't you dare drop me,” I shouted. He chuckled, “Wouldn't dream of it, Josh would probably kill me if I did, then my own Girlfriend would,” He winked at Kass who was walking next to him.
We all got inside and half the stuff was gone. I told Chase to let me down and he did. Josh stayed close to me so I didn't fall. All Liz's stuff was gone, I heard yelling in the kitchen. Then Zac walked out followed by Allison, “Oh, you guys are here,” Zac said hugging me with a smile. Allison hugged me also, “So glad you are okay, but how did you get out so soon?” she asked shocked. I looked at Josh with a smile, “Don't ask,” He said shaking his head. I laughed and held his hand. “Where is all Liz's shit?” I asked Zac. He shrugged, “I don't know I got home and dad had it out on the street, they are arguing right now in the kitchen,” he said, Allison hugged him from the side to calm him. She was really good at calming him I liked it.
We all sat in the living room for an hour, then Liz came out of the kitchen, looked at us then left slamming the door. Then my dad walked out, “She's gone,” He smiled at me and I hugged him. This moment, is when my life started over. Everything was perfect again. My brother had his perfect girl, my dad was happy to be single and to have his kids, Kassie and Chase planned on staying together and even planned on going to the same college together. And Josh and me were great, everything was perfect, even when after senior year we were still going strong, sure were weren't at the small college but we bought an apartment together and lived there. This was how my life was always meant to be, I just had to get over the road bumps to get here.
