el's pov:
"el! the police is making-" will started in a paniced voice before stoping mid sentence when he saw me and max. i quickly pulled away despite not wanting too, and i could feel my face go red. "what is happening?" i asked will. "they contacted her parents and they're comming here, i'm sorry." will told me. "WHAT!?" max exclaimed shooting up in bed. "no- no fucking way! they can't come here! you guys- you need to get me the fuck out of here right fucking now!" she continued trying to get out of bed. "no- you need to rest, max just tell the police what your parents did to you and they won't have guardianship over you anymore- right?" i asked her.
"no, that's not the way it works! please el, you need to help me. i will go to new york- yeah i can go to new york please help me." she begged me as she grabbed my hand. she was staring at me with her big blue piercing eyes, and i wanted to help her, but then i would loose her. i can't loose her. "max, you will be okay," i told her as i placed my other hand onto of her other hand. "i will be here, i will tell them what shit they did to you," i told her. "i promise you that." i promised her.
she nodded in agreeance, but i could tell she was scared still. i can understand why she is scared, if i was her, i would be too. i looked over and wills was still standing there awkwardly not knowing what to do. i was about to say something when mom and the nurse walked back into the room. max immediately spoke. "when can i leave?" she asked. "i'm sorry but we cannot move you without your legal guardian's permission, and if they give permission then we need to put you in the suicide ward, but first when you are up for it you need to talk to a licensed therapist to see how much risk you are at for another attempt." the kris's explained. "i guess i'm kinda up for it now." she told her. "well because it's the middle of the night, we will do all of that in the morning." the nurse explained.
"for now i suggest you all go home and get some sleep, if you would like you can come back in the morning." the nurse told mom before leaving the room. "okay- will, el come on. we need some rest." mom told us as she yawned. "what no! i'm not leaving!" i protested. "el, i don't want to fight. we're all exhausted." she explained. "i'm staying here!" i yelled at her. she sighed and yawned again. "fine, i don't have energy to fight. see you tomorrow then." she said as she left the hospital room and will followed.
max looked over at me and frowned. "el- you didn't have to stay. i'm okay alone." she told me. "but i want to stay with you." i told her. she smiled and then spoke. "you're really sweet, you know that right?" she told me slightly giggling. "you're sweet too." i told her. she looked at me with a confused expression, and shook her head. "no, i'm kinda a dick. and i'm sorry for that. i really don't know what is wrong with me sometimes." she admitted to me. i noticed there was lots of space still on her hospital bed, so i climbed into bed bed and laid down next to her.
"that's not true."
"yes it is,
i'm an bitch sometimes and i'm sorry."
i stayed silent not knowing what to say next.
"yeah, but you're MY bitch then." i told her. she looked over at me with an expression i didn't know how to read. "YOURS, huh?" she asked me. i immediately regretted what i just said and started to stumble over my words. "no- uh. i just meant-"
"if that is your way of asking me out then the answer is yes."
i looked over at her and stared at her with a confused expression. "wait what?" i asked her feeling confused. she stared at me silently, with her piercing blue eyes once again.
"will you be my girlfriend el?" she asked me.
my heart starting pounding inside of my chest, and i almost couldn't breathe. "holy shit- yes! yes of course i will!" i told her almost crying from the happiness and excitement. without thinking i immediately hugged her, i could feel her heart pounding just as much as mine. "yes.." i mumbled again not being able to stop smiling.
finally this is it, i thought. this was gonna be my happy ending.
max will be my happy ending.
