gym class - billie eilish

27

as soon as jane hung up, i put shoes on and left the house. i didn't care how i looked, i just wanted to see billie, and make sure she was okay. i didn't have any of billie's family members' numbers, so i didn't call them or anything.

i ordered a taxi to the hospital and paid the driver a bit more so he'll drive as fast as possible to get there. he dropped me off at the er entrance, and i walked in, looking for billie.

"do you need help?" a nurse asked me. "yeah, i'm looking for billie eilish? she was in a car accident and i was told she'd be taken into this hospital" i told the nurse. "yeah, she's in trauma 2" the nurse said and pointed at the room.

i ran towards the room, and saw billie there; laying on the bed, with a bunch of tubes going in and out of her, and a big ass glass shard in her neck. the sight broke me down. i started crying, collapsing on the floor.

"get a gurney here" was the last thing i heard, before passing out.

i woke up in a hospital room, with a tube in my arm. i pressed the "call nurse" button. a nurse quickly arrived, and said "you passed out on the floor, most likely from dehydration, so that's the tube in your arm".

"oh, thanks. are there any news about billie eilish?" i asked, worried. "i gotta go check that in the computer" he said. "that's the girl with the glass shard in her neck" i explained, my voice breaking. "ohh her, she's in surgery right now. are you the girlfriend?" the nurse asked.

"yeah i am, why?" i answered. "the paramedic left billie's items, as she said she knew you were coming here, so i'll go bring them here" he said. "thank you" i shouted as he left the room.

when he got back, he handed me a bag with billie's items, and her backpack. "thank you so much" i thanked him and he said "you're welcome".

i already knew what was in billie's backpack, so i went through the bag with her belongings. her bloody shirt and pants were there, her piercing jewelry and her phone.

i wanted to call her parents, to let them know, but then billie might be mad at me. but they have to know, they're her parents, and they're most likely worried sick about her. but she might be mad at me if i call her. my mind kept running in circles, debating if i should call them or not.

it stopped when billie got a text from finneas. it wasn't the first text either. it was the 5th. i read the messages through the notifications. the first 2 were about the loud sex we had earlier today, but the rest were him asking what's up and when she's coming home.

a couple hours later, i was still waiting for billie to get out of surgery. it was the middle of the night, and i couldn't get myself to sleep for 2 reasons. the first reason was obvious, i didn't wanna miss the second billie got out of surgery. the second reason was that i couldn't decide if i should call her family.

and then i thought about it. what if it was the opposite situation? what if jane would've called her family? would they hesitate to call me?. probably not. they would probably call me.

so i unlocked billie's phone, and called finneas. he answered after a couple of rings, yawning "it's the middle of the night bil, what's up?". "it's y/n. billie got into a car accident and she's in surgery right now. i'm at the hospital, in room 9002" i told him, my voice breaking. "y/n, i don't know you that well, but if you're pranking me right now i'll kill you" he said, then added "i'll be there as soon as i can" and hung up.

about 15 minutes later, i was woken up by the sound of a gurney being rolled into the room i was in. i opened my eyes and saw billie, sleeping peacefully. she still had a bunch of tubes going in and out of her, but the glass shard was gone, and instead there was a bandage on her throat.

i gently raised her hand and kissed it softly, whispering "i know you'll wake up, i know it. i love you so much". i then put her palm down gently and kissed her forehead.

the nurse that brought her in said "the surgery was a success. she's extremely lucky that the shard stabbed her where it did. if it was less than an inch to the left, it would've killed her. if it was less than an inch to the right, she probably wouldn't be able to speak ever again. she should make a full recovery in less than a month".

"thank you so much. can you bring the surgeons and doctors that treated her? i'd like to thank every single one of them personally" i said, and then heard patrick ask the nurse "is this room 9002?".

the nurse said "it is, i was just explaining to y/n how lucky billie is, that the glass shard stabbed her where it did. full recovery in less than a month". the whole family thanked her, and then she said "i'll give you all some time alone", and left the room.

maggie started attacking me with questions, such as "what happened?", "how did you not get hurt?", "when was the accident?". "the accident was a couple of hours ago.. i called finneas the second i could. i don't know what happened, i wasn't there. billie dropped me off at my house and said she wanted some alone time after the doctor's appointment" i started explaining.

and then it hit me. they don't know yet that billie is infertile. they don't know what made her upset so much that she'd want to be alone from her girlfriend.

"wait, why did billie want alone time after the appointment? is everything okay?" finneas asked.

"baby?" i heard a faint weak voice from beside me. i turned my head and i was met with billie's beautiful ocean eyes, looking at me. "hi sleepyhead" i said, smiling at her. she smiled back at me, and then passed out again because the anesthesia was still wearing off.
