Lila pov~

I woke up to my friends Tatum and Sydney right next to me and Stu, my brother and Billy my boyfriend by the door.

"Hey, how you doin girl?" Tatum asks, rubbing my arm.

"Obviously not well. Poor girl got stabbed." Stu says with a pissed off look at Billy. Weird.

"Stu, I'm fine. What happened?"

"Well how much do you remember?" Sydney asks.

"Up until I got stabbed and blacked out."

"You talked to the police this morning, under anesthesia but you told them everything of last night you remember." The nurse walked in.

I looked around and Billy was just staring at me and winked. Billy used to be the nicest boy, until his mother left. Then he started dating Sydney and that's how we met, she didn't like me at first but we warmed up. Then they broke up and we started dating again.

He thought it would be good for us to date again. He says I fill in this dark empty void of his with light. Cheesy, but romantic.

"How long was I out for then? What about school?"

"We just got out an hour ago. You were out for a good half a day." Tatum says.

"Shit." I lay my hand on my head.

"Hey a little lady shouldn't use that language." The woman says.

"Sorry, but when can I leave? I feel fine, our mom is a nurse and I know how the healing process works on my own."

"Well, we just need your parents to sign some papers but-" Stu coughs.

"Parents are out of town. Since I am her older brother, can't I?" Is he actually being responsible for once?

"Um sure, I'll talk to the doc. I just had to check in on you, but you are more stubborn than imagined." The nurse walked out.

"Oh trust me, we all know about that." Sidney jokes. I take notice to what the day was.

"How you doing? You know it's almost..."

"Yeah, I can handle it." She puts on a smile.

"Okay, how you doing Lila?" The doctor walks in.

"I feel fine. Can we leave?" I ask. About to stand up, but gently pushed back down by Tatum.

The doctor was about to say something, but a nurse came in and said someone is on the phone looking for the two girls he showed them to the phone. Stu followed, leaving Billy.

"You can go too. I'm leaving this hell hole anyway." I slowly got up, my abdomen hurting like a bitch.

"What you staring at Nub?" I ask. He leans away from the wall and walks to me when I sat up on the side of the bed. I call him nub since I used to be taller than him at some point until high school hit.

"Stu said I gotta keep an eye on you if he leaves you alone. Don't want this killer coming for ya. Plus I was so worried." He hugs me and kisses my forehead. I made eye contact with him, but something seems different about him.

"Billy, we're in a hospital, and I definitely don't need a babysitter. I love you, I do, but I'm fine."

"With what happened last night though-" I stand up, kind of woozy.

"You lost a lot of blood. I wouldn't stand too fast or else you might-" I felt really light headed and lost consciousness for like 5 seconds. I didn't fall to the floor, so he must've held me up.
