Sleeping was difficult and not just because I was in pain but the fact that the nurses kept coming in almost every hour to check on me and do stuff.

It's already been two days that I've been here and I was still healing from everything. I saw the bruises still there and it seems as though they weren't fading.

The cuts were still pretty fresh but they were starting to heal a little.

My doctor brought me some cream that I had to put on my cuts every few hours to help them heal faster.

I also took some more medicine for infection plus for pain.

So I was taking a shit load of meds.

But the last two days, Haley never left and Greg was still here along with Arianna.

They never left my side.

When it was the third day, I waited for a nurse to walk in and take my breakfast order then I had to ask her a question that's been on my mind for a few days.

"When can I take a shower?"

She smiles at me. "When we're ready for you to start walking, you can take a shower. We have to get your strength back up in your legs."

"When will that be?"

"I'll have to ask your doctor. I'll let you know."

After she left, I sighed as I looked over at Arianna as she was standing at the window. I saw her look out and I looked around as Greg and Haley were both gone to get breakfast.

Arianna came to my bed side and sat down in the chair and I was watching her the whole time.

"How are you feeling?"

"Still hurting."

She nods as she looks me over. "Your bruises aren't fading yet and the cuts are still visible." She looks at me. "You've been applying the cream everywhere, right?"

I nod. "Yeah, Haley's been helping me. Usually when you and Greg aren't in the room."

She nods as she looks back over my body before leaning back in the chair. I kept watching her for a moment before she looks over at me.

"What?"

"I'm just.. sorry."

"For what, Morgan?"

I look down at the bed then back over at her. "For putting everyone in this situation."

"Morgan, we've all forgave you." She reaches over and grabs my hand then holds in.

I moved my hand a little and intertwined our fingers together before looking over at her. I could see her staring at me for a moment before moving up a little and leaning towards the bed.

She leans over and kissed my hand before leaning back and slightly smiling at me. I felt her hand squeeze mine and I looked over at the tv as it was still on from early.

"I'm ready to take a shower." I groan. "I feel gross."

Arianna was smiling at me before looking over at the door as Haley and Greg walks in. I saw Haley smile at us as she held something in her hand then walked to Arianna and handed her something.

"I said I didn't want food." Arianna said to Haley as she grabbed the container.

"Well, I got you something anyways." I saw her smile at her then Arianna thanked her before standing up but Haley stopped her. "You can sit there. I'll sit near the window."

Haley smiles before walking to the chair across from Greg as he was sitting there, eating whatever he had.

I watch Arianna as she was opening her container and took a bite of whatever it was. I kept watching her until she looks over at me and wipes her mouth.
