You and only you

Chapter 9

Phil's POV:

I wake up to find myself in a hospital bed. Why am I in a hospital? "Phil? Hey buddy." I look look over to find Dan. Dan?! He's here!

"Dan? Dan why am I here?" I see him look away from me, "You were in a car accident Phil." A CAR ACCIDENT?! Suddenly all the memories come flooding back. I was in a taxi when we hit a pole.

"I saw them put me in the ambulance Dan. I don't know how it was like my soul left my body for a second." I take a look around the room and look at all the paintings and the plants when suddenly something catches my eye. It's the girl from Starbucks that kissed Dan. "Who is that?" I say slightly disgusted. She walked up and stands next to Dan, "Hi, I'm Veronica. We've met before but it was brief. You probably don't remember it."

I continue to look at her. "Why are you here though, I mean we aren't even friends." She looks at Dan as if expecting him to answer. "Um ya so about that, um she is here because she is my...girlfriend." Dan says hesitantly. Girlfriend?! I stare up at her and Dan in shock. That's why she kissed him at Starbucks. Anger begins to rush through me. Without thinking I snap at Dan. "Get out Dan." He looks at me confused, "But what did I do?" I raise my voice, "I said GET OUT!"

"But what did I do?! I don't understand!" I see a tear fall from Dan's eye. "I was just worried about you. I wanted to make sure you were ok. I don't know what I would do if you had died." He sniffles.

"Come on Dan he doesn't want us here." She grabs his hand and together they start to walk towards the door. As Dan is about to leave, he looks back at me. He looks sad. Betrayed. I stare back at him with anger in my eyes. He turns away and closes the door.

What have I done? I just kicked my best friend out because he had a girlfriend! Ugh I'M SO STUPID! I slam my fist against my bed. "Ouch!" I yelp. My eyes start to water. He cared about me and wanted to make sure I was ok and I pushed him out. "I'm so STUPID!" I scream. A nurse comes rushing in, "Mr. Lester, are you ok? Do you need something?" I look down at my lap, "No I'm fine thanks." She turns and walked out of the room and I continue to stare down at my lap. I feel a tear trickle down my cheek. I wipe it away but more keep on falling until I can't stop. The tears start to run down my cheeks like a river.

I just wanted to disappear.
