Save Me | Billie Eilish

Chapter 9

Claudy, Maggie, and Patrick already left for the nearby hospital. Finneas was on one side of the stretcher with Jackson on the other side and I was at Billie's head as we pushed her out the doors.

"BILLIE" is being screamed by fans worried for their idol and from pop culture news outlets... losers. We already had her lifted to the height we needed her at to be able to get the stretcher on the tracks in our trucks. One step less that we had to do. Two security guards opened our truck doors. I was so focused on getting this girl safe and better medical care that I didn't care what was happening around us. We pushed her in, Finneas got in the truck, I slammed the doors and ran to our side door that leads to the back of the truck. Jackson immediately started the truck, the alarms, and we were gone.

"Okay darlin, you're safe with us. How are ya feeling?" I asked as I got out the supplies to start an IV.

"My foot hurts like a bitch" she said bluntly and hissing as our ride was quite bumpy with the rocks on the uneven dirt roads.

"Understandable. I am go-ing to get an IV started so we can get you fluids and at the hospital, they can run some pain medicine through you, then we can go ahead and look at your foot for you." I said working quickly.

"Okay darlin' you're going to feel a sharp pinch right here hun I'm sorry.'" I said trying to mentally prepare the girl.

"Shit bro that hurts!" She said in pain. Finneas held on to her hand as she squeezed it tightly.

"I know darlin' no one likes that part." I said flushing the line in her arm connecting her up to the iv pole to get her some fluids finally.

"Okay that is all out of the way. How does your head feel and how is your foot?" I asked trying to get a gauge on what we are dealing with here.

"My head just feels like I have a migraine and my foot hurts when it moves." She said.

"When I looked at your eyes earlier with my light here your pupils looked normal; based on what your telling me I think your head is just hurting from you hitting it so hard. I don't think your have a concussion." I said the two sighed with relief.

"Let's look at your foot here babe." I said sympathetically. "I'm going to move your foot around and you tell me what hurts. I'll be careful I promise. I'm just going to roll your pant leg u-"

"Woah at least take me to dinner first!" Billie said with a smirk on her face.

"Billie please let Charlie look at your leg with your cocky humor." Finneas said rolling his eyes.

"I'm hilarious finnEus and Charlie your name is hot. I dig it." She said with another confident smirk. Trying not to blush I touched her foot being careful when she flinched and hissed in pain "oh my god it hurts so bad ." She said with tears in her eyes angrily wiping them away.

'Okay, okay, I won't touch it anymore doll. You know, it's okay to be upset. It's okay to feel vulnerable. You're surrounded by people who love you. In the end things will be okay, it may not feel that way now or maybe tomorrow; but everything heals with time." I said worried trying my best to make her feel more comfortable.

"Thanks, could we talk about something else? Where do you and Finneas know each other from? You seem to know each other." She said trying to distract her self from the current situation and her pain.

"Well it's a bit of a story." Said Finneas.

"Well we are out in the middle of nowhere, in the desert, in California... I think we have some time." She said with a bit of a laugh making me smile knowing she was a little happier than she was just a few moments ago. What is this sweet lil thing doing to me.
