CHAPTER 21

|||EMILYS POV|||

{3 hours later}

I wake up with Hayes and Nash in the room.

"Oh my god Em!" Hayes whispered. I just give I faint smile. I don't have the energy to do anything right now.

"Hey, Nash, can we have a minute?" Hayes asks.

"Yeah sure." He replies.

"So, um how are you feeling?" Hayes asks.

"Terrible." I say.

"Look, I'm really sorry. My heart stopped when I saw you getting pulled out on a stretcher. I care about you so much and I don't want to see you hurt. I want you to be happy."

"If you wanted me to be happy, you wouldn't have made me come her. You should've saved me. But no, I'm stuck here for a few more days and I have to do therapy 3 times a weak for 5 months. You have ruined my life. Do you understand that?"

"Yes. And I'm sorry. Why can't you see that I love you!" He yells.

"If you loved me, you would've been there for me. You wouldn't have broken up with me. You would try to work things out. But you clearly only care about yourself!" I yell back.

"I'm sorry okay! What do you want me to say?!"

" I want you to say that... I don't know what I want you to say." I said.

"Maybe I don't have to say anything at all." Hayes says and leans in for a kiss. Our lips meet for a split second before I pull away.

"No. I can't." I say, regretting it now.

"Yes you can. Emily. Do you love me?" He asks.

"I-I -I'm tired. I need to go back to sleep. The doctors said that I need to relax."

"Okay. Sweet dreams. Remember that I love you. I truly do and I hope that you can forgive me and love me back. I don't want to lose you.

I close my eyes and that's the last thing I see before everything goes black. I can finally figure out what to say when I wake up. I'll say that I love him. I'll be happy again. But, who knows, he might break up with me again. He might find another girl. A girl that doesn't cause drama. A girl that's perfect. A girl that isn't me.
