(11) Double Standards, Blah Blah!

"You have to go back home Avianna. I know you don't want to leave but you have school and that's much more important." I take the bowl of soup and began feeding Sammy. It's been approximately three days and they switched him to a regular room. He can sit up without anyone else's assistance, and is slowly beginning to walk again.

He takes the food from me, and sets it on the bedside table. "Baby you have been with me for the past days and I appreciate that. but you need to sleep in a real bed and not just in a hospital chair." I give him a smile at his concern for me. If I leave him here, it would feel too much of a betrayal, like I was the worst girlfriend that ever existed. "I haven't even been sleeping on the chair, you would let me stay next to you." I beam. He quietly chuckles as the door swings open, Matthew, Jack, Jack, Madison, Nate, and Nash entering with a bag of Taco Bell. They swarm around his bed and I look up, my eyes meeting with Nate's. I quickly look away and focus my attention on Johnson, who was carrying the bag.

He shoots me a quick grin before speaking, "You have been saved by the one and only Johnson. Forget the hospital, you need real food in your systems." I excitedly grab the back, sitting next to Sammy on the bed. Before I could glance inside, I decided to test them on how well they have gotten to know me. "This is a bacon club chalupa, right?" Gilinksy nods, "We couldn't forget the chicken grilled stuff nacho, and Matt is holding your Baja Blast Freeze." I squeal in excitement as he hands me his drink, a smile plastered onto his face. I look through the bag, snagging my food before throwing the rest to Sam. Small chuckles fill the room as i indulge in the goodness. Taco Bell has got to be one of my favorite fast food places.

"How you holding up Samuel?" Madison asks, sitting on the chair that i was previously on. He shrugs, fiddling the lettuce on his taco before taking a bite. "I'm sore but the doctor said that if i continue to heal at this pace, ill be out of here in a week." I smile at the thought of him finally leaving this place. I would hate to tell people that i spent my first time in Los Angeles in the hospital with my boyfriend.

"Dude, there was this hot nurse that we passed by. Like, I will hurt myself every day to see her." Nash says, licking his lips. I rolled my eyes at his uncontrollable hormones. Guys really annoy me sometimes but there so hot and sexy at the same time. "Nate man, you alright. You have barely made an effort to engage yourself in our conversations for the past three days." Sammy says, finishing off his third taco just as i eat my chalupa. He shifts uncomfortably in the chair, as everyone's eyes moves on me then back to him.

When we got back to the hospital, I ended up confronting him in the waiting room while Sam was running a few tests. The rest of the guys walked in, just as Nate confessed his feelings for me, which i didn't know how to handle. Especially since he was the only guy that was actually interested in me and just didn't think I was hot, except Sammy of course. "Whats going on?" I feel his gaze burning a whole on the side of my face and before anyone could answer, my phone dings, exempting myself from the conversation to focus on the text. I quickly check it as Nash turns on the tv, stopping the conversation in its entirety.

Mark: REMIND ME AGAIN TO NEVER TELL ANYSSA THAT SHE DOESN'T NEED MAKEUP.

Mark: SHES BEEN RANTING FOR THE PAST TWENTY MINUTES ON HOW SHE DOESN'T TRY AND LOOK GOOD FOR ME BUT RATHER THAN FOR HERSELF. I JUST THOUGHT THAT SHE SHOULD KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT HER BUT OBVIOUSLY SHE BEGINS TO GET MAD ME FOR TRYING TO COMPLIMENT HER.

Mark: WHY COULDN'T SHE JUST REACT LIKE YOU WHEN I TELL YOU THAT YOU'RE TOO BEAUTIFUL FOR MAKEUP AND SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON IT IS POINTLESS EVEN THOUGH I ENCOURAGE YOUR BEHAVIOR AND BUY YOU MAKEUP ANYWAYS.

Me: You need to calm down, but its your decision, I actually find your fury quite amusing.

Me: I told you how Anyssa was like before your first date and although this may seem like a lot, i don't think its going to be a everlasting problem.
