tw: tiny mentions of r@pe, past abuse references

"I'm just... just thinking..." I say looking into the abyss. "Where's Tom?" I ask Joe, still not making eye contact. He stutters as he starts trying to speak, but eventually tells me that they're almost at the hospital. I feel numb. I thought I was gonna break down in front of Joe if he ever asked, but I didn't.

I feel like the manic depression has turned back into regular depression. Great, isn't it? As I'm drowning back into my miserable thoughts, a question slips to my mind. "Hey, why were you the one to ride the ambulance with me? I thought for sure it would've been Tom or Will."

Joe looks a bit unsure of how to answer. "I sort of was the one to carry you to the ambulance. Also, the nurse later revealed she thought we were a couple." Joe says and I feel an uneasiness come over me. "That's weird, but thanks for carrying me, bro." And just like that, I made sure to let him know I wasn't interested. Bro-zoned.

"Ouch." Joe says and we both chuckle. He knew I knew he was interested, but he seemed not to be too effected by my rejection. I like that. He raises an arm up to stretch, but I flinch and cover my face up with my hands. This felt way too familiar. I hated how well I remembered the scarring days.

"Y/n? Why did you flinch? Are you alright?" Joe asks putting his hands down and worryingly looking at me. I simply stretch out my arms and pretend like I was yawning. Joe sighs in relief. "Fuck, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." I say with a smile. Joe obviously believes me, as he smiles back.

As we talk a bit about mostly lovejoy, we hear the door open. I see a blond boy with bags under his eyes run up to me and hug me tightly. "Fucking 'ell..." Tom says as I hug him back. Behind him I see Will and Ash. Tom pulls away from the hug and looks at me with a smile.

"I was so fucking worried, Y/n." he says. "I noticed..." I reply pointing at his eye bags. He chuckles lightly as he looks over to Joe. As soon as he sees him, he walks over. I'm then engulfed in a hug by Ash. "Hey, beautiful." he says, expecting me to stay quiet. "Hey, handsome." I reply, making him flustered.

I feel happy, but somethings missing. There's a certain greyness when talking to Ash. It's as if I was interested in him, but not like I was interested in...

"Will!" I smile and hug him before he got the chance to speak. Ash huffs a bit, as I pushed him away, but tries to smile and pretend like he's in the land of happiness. I can feel Will smile against my neck. This was the hug I was most excited to receive after waking up.

Wait, why am I?

"I'm so glad you're okay! We were all worried, especially Tommy." he says and looks at my brother. I then remember, "Oh, shit, umm... I kinda put you and Tom as my emergency contacts?" I say looking at Will nervously. What id he's mad? He might not wanna deal with my shit.

"That's absolutely fine with me. I think Tom has me as his emergency call as well, actually. The Simons are dependant on me!" Will says proudly. I feel relief grow over me. We all turn our heads as we hear the door to my hospital room open. A man I never expected to see again walked through the door.

"Hey, sweetheart. Miss me, miss me, now you gotta kiss me..." he says with a huge grin on his face. Tom's eyes are darting between me and the man before I speak up. "Fuck off, rapist." I say, forgetting I'm accompanied by other people. That's another thing I have to explain now, great.

"That's no way to talk to your fiancé, is it now?" he says. Everyone in the room, except for me, gasps out loud. "I never said yes, you fucking stalker. You quite literally broke into my home and threatened me." I say angrily. This man has ruined my life before, but I seem to have forgotten about him since I went to Germany.

"Y/n, who is this? Are you engaged?" Ash asks on behalf of everyone. "No, we are not. That man right there is Jared, the prick of the century." I say. Ive never stood up to Jared, but I have 4 men surrounding me. He's the weak one now.

"Oh, come on now. I wouldn't say prick. I also wouldn't say threatened." he says with a wide grin still present on his face. I can sense disgust come from Tom and myself. "Like I said, prick of the century." I say.

"Alright. Listen, prick, you have no right to be here. If the patient does not consent to a visitor's visit, then the visitor must leave. Correct me if I'm wrong, Y/n, but you don't consent to this man being here, is that correct?" Will says. The way he calmly argues sends me into a fit.

It's hot as fuck.

"I don't, actually. I also believe that the visitor limit is four at a time, no? I don't know if there are any kindergarteners present, but there seems to be four welcome people here already. I also believe that Jared is not one of them." I say, confidence through the roof.

Wilbur POV

As Y/n argues sarcastically, I can't help but stare.

It's hot as fuck.

Y/n POV

Jared huffs and quietly mumbles an angry "whatever" before leaving. "Took him long enough. I think the toddler forgot how to walk." I say, mocking Jared with a baby voice. "I think he remembered he has to do his timetables for tomorrow!" Will remarks. We both stare at each other before fist bumping in victory.
