The Chef | A Michael Jackson Fanfiction

Chapter 19

Maeve's POV

We spent the ride to the hospital in silence. When we arrived Bill talked to the lady at the reception and then handed me some papers to fill out.

I tried my best to write as good as I can but because I'm right handed it wasn't as beautiful as it normally would have been.

It didn't take long for my name to be called and I guess Michael had some influence on that since other people were waiting for longer than I was.

Bill helped me to get my jacket off. He then lifted my sleeve a little to show the doctor the bruise.

He then took my arm and moved it a few times causing me to scream in agony.

He then said something that we couldn't understand to the nurse who then looked at us with a friendly smile.

"Ok, so the bruise is nothing to be worried about. It should be gone in a week or two" she said.

"Well that sounds good, can we go now" I said impatiently.

I already was about to leave when she stopped me. "However, we are very concerned about the limitation of movement in your arm, we'll sent you to get an x-ray and then we will see what's wrong" she added.

I sighted and followed her unwillingly. The x-ray didn't took long but after that we waited for about 30 minutes for the result.

The doctor and his translator aka the nurse came back in.

"So it looks like your elbow is dislocated. That's what causing you all this pain" she explained.

"Ok, and how can we fix that?" Bill asked.

"So first we are going to give you something against the pain and then-"

"No, no pain meds, I don't want them" I said.

"Maeve, are you sure?" Bill asked me.

"The correction of a dislocation is a very painful procedure. We do advise to-"

"NO, I don't want anything, just do what you have to do, I'll be fine."

The nurse wasn't lying when she said that it was very painful. It did hurt like hell, but they were very quick. I still screamed like I was being stabbed or something. The tears were running uncontrollably down my face.

"Ok the painful part is over. Now your arm has to be supported. For that we are going to give you an orthosis that should stay on for about 6 weeks. You can take it off while showering. We advise you to try to put no pressure at all on that arm."

I tried to calm down since my whole body was still shaking because of pain. They again offered me something against the pain but I declined.

The nurse then brought the orthosis which was like a bandage around my arm with a sling for my neck to help with supporting the elbow.

"Does it feel good?" the nurse asked.

"Fantastic" I said sarcastically with a blank expression on my face.

"Ok so here are some pain killers you can take whenever you need them" she then placed the meds on the table. I didn't even look at them.

We soon after were good to go. I left the meds where the nurse put them but in the corner of my eye I saw Bill taking them and putting them in the pocket of his jacket.

It was already late and I missed the whole concert. Bill started the car and drove off.

About 5 minutes into the ride I said "Bring me to my hotel."

"Michael said that-"

"I don't care what he says!" I was angry and hurt.

Bill sighted "Ok".
