Dimitri's pov

Monday, September 26, 9:13 pm {Hospital}

I sat there in the hospital beEp beep Corbin's heartbeat monitor was the only noise in the room until the door crept open "Hey" someone spoke in a soft tone. My head slowly turns away from my phone to see Maliea standing there. 

"Hey" the annoyance in my tone shocked through, 

"what's your problem?" she asked as she placed flowers, a stuffed bunny, and a card onto the side table. 

"Nothing, Mom just made me stay in here with this kid" I rolled my eyes as I shoved my thumb in Corbin's direction. 

"Oh," Maliea sighs as she picked up a pink card, and opened it. 

"You hear anything from the doctors?" she asked as she put the card back on the side table 

"They aren't one hundred percent sure he'll wake up for a while but only been nine-plus hours, so they aren't sure" I spat out not paying attention to what I was saying. 

"Oh..." Maliea turned to Corbin's body, 

"I ho-ho-hope he'll get better" Maliea tripped over her words as she pulled her phone out of her pocket, 

"oh it's getting late" she said as she walked towards the door 

"Bye, see you.. Tomorrow hopefully" she waved as she left the room, I felt my phone vibrate in my hand seeing a message from Mya, 

hey, you okay? She had typed out 

yeah, doing alright, you? I sigh as I hit send after a minute or two another vibration from my phone 

still kinda freaked out... that wasn't how I wanted my Monday to go. I could tell she was not ready to talk about it. 

Love you, talk later? I quickly typed out and hit send, 

yeah, love you too. I turned off my phone and set it in my pocket. I turn to the door where Mom was standing, "you alright Mom?" I ask looking at Corbin 

 "Yeah," she sighed 

"Let's go home, they said they would call me if he woke up" she said as she turned out of the door starting to walk away. I hopped out of the rough chair I was sitting in heading for the door... the ride home was silent. As I walked into my room I heard some music outside, I slowly turned the door nob, pushing the glass open to see Mya's door open. I crept over to her room to see her dancing around with a hairbrush in hand as she sang. She was in a cami top, with shorts, I saw her stab wound bandages had been changed she spun around facing the door and spotting me "Oh hi" she said as she paused the music and walked over to the door, she had bandages on her face. One on her cheek, one right above her eyebrow. 

"Hey" I realized I had been staring at her bandages 

"Is that what she did?" I asked as I pointed at all the scratch marks on her face and the bandages. 

"Yeah," she said barely louder than a murmur, 

"oh..." I say back as I bring her into a hug a tight hug she wraps her arms around me and slightly squeezed. 

"Im going to finish picking up," Mya said as she backed up twirling to her room 

"LOVE YOU" she called as she hit play on the music turning it up this time. I walk back to my room collapsing on the bed, it was a long day... I thought as I dragged my body upward to lie down.
