CHARLOTTE POV.


I woke up by the noise of people shouting in my room. I opened my eyes rubbing my head from the massive head ach that I had. "What's going on?" I asked as I sat up. I saw dad, Taylor, Nash, Hayes and the nurse standing in my room. "Um, Char, it's about your arm," Dad said as he came towards me. "Um, okay. What is it?" I asked as I started to play close attention. "Your ligament damage is more serious than we thought, it hasn't improved since the surgery. We think that the damage is permanent," The nurse said to me, Christine.


"But, it has only been 2 days since the surgery," I said as my eyes filled up with tears. "We know, but it was supposed to be improved at least 40%, it hasn't improved at all," She told me. "So, so what does this mean?" I asked as I quickly wiped away the tears that landed on my cheek as dad and the other guys just stood there.


 "Well, we will need to do several surgeries and rehab for it. If that doesn't work we will have to do a larger surgery that has a lot more risks to it," She said with no emotion. "You will be getting discharged today but you will have to come back regularly," She said before she walked out the door. Was I ever going to be able to use my left arm ever again?


After sitting in my hospital room and having people coming in and out of my room taking tests I was finally able to get discharge. "Do you have everything?" Dad asked me as he came and picked up my bag. "Yep," I replied. "So you will have to come back tomorrow, we would like to do surgery on you in three days," My doctor told me as dad was signing paperwork. Hayes, Nash and Taylor was still with me. "Ah sure, what time?" Dad asked. "Around 9," My doctor said before he signed something. "You are all good to go," He said with a smile. "Thanks," I said as I faked a smile and walked out the hospital.


"Do you want something to eat?" Dad asked as we were driving pass McDonalds. "Um, not really but you guys can get something if you want," I said from the back seat. "Okay, what do you guys want?" Dad then asked. They all said what they wanted and dad then went through drive through. It was around 5 so it wasn't really busy. We got the food and dad started to drive away and food started to be thrown across the car, literally.


 "Think quick!" Taylor said to Hayes as he threw a cheeseburger pass me and hit Hayes right in the face. "Hey! That's not cool dude," Hayes said making everyone laugh except me. "Are you okay?" He asked once he realised I wasn't laughing. "Yeah, just a head ache," I replied.


We then got home, I was so tired. I walked through the door when Bell came up and started to jump on my legs and barking. "Hey Bell!" I said in a baby voice as I went on my knees and attempted to pat her with one hand. I then fed her before I walked upstairs, "I'm having a shower!" I yelled from the top of the stairs.


 I heard someone yell back okay but I didn't know who. I went and had a shower so I didn't smell like hospital, I hated that smell. I walked into my bathroom and looked in the mirror. You could see the white bandage that was wrapped around my forehead covering my bangs. I took the bandage off and saw all the scars and scratches. I touched it lightly but pulled away almost instantly from the pain.


I had a shower and washed my hair, I walked into my bedroom and then got changed into my pyjamas. I went into my bathroom to hang up my towel when I heard a knock at the door. "Come in!" I yelled as I hung my towel up. I walked out my bathroom door to see Hayes standing there. "Hey," He said with a small smile. "Hi," I replied as I went and picked up my hair brush. I was left handed so everything was going to be hard for me. "Here, let me do that," Hayes said as he grabbed the brush out of my hand. "Thanks," I said as I sat on my bed with him sitting behind me.


He started to brush my hair ever so gently. "Are you okay?" He asked as he put the brush down. "Yeah, I guess," I replied as I turned around so I faced him. "Does it hurt?" He asked as he lightly touched my head with his soft, gently hands. "Yeah," I replied as I pulled away. "So are we going to talk about what happened?" He asked as he looked down. "What is there to talk about?" I asked. "You know, the kiss," He said as he ran his hand through his light brown hair.


"I know, but what does it mean?" I asked. "It's up to you," He said. "I told you how I feel, I told you that I liked you then you kissed me and now you're telling me th..." I started to say as I got cut off by his lips on mine. He pulled away after a long kiss, "Does that tell you how I feel?" He said with both hands on my cheeks holding my face up. "Yes," I replied before I started to kiss him again.


The kiss was broken when I had to pull away from pain. We went downstairs to watch a movie when I saw that all the guys were over. We watched a movie together before I fell asleep on the couch beside Hayes. "You have to admit, they are pretty cute," I heard a voice say. "I know, it's just I don't want her to get hurt by him because he is Hayes Grier. All the girls are going to hate her!" I heard someone say, I knew straight away that it was dad.
