You and only you

Chapter 11

Phil's POV:

I wake up to the beeping sound of my monitor. It annoys me. I just want to rip all my wires out and turn the stupid thing off, but I know I can't. So I sit in silence listening it continue to beep.

Soon a nurse walks in. "Dan Howell will be here to see you shortly." My eyes widen, "Um...ok I guess that's fine." On the outside I seem calm but on the inside I am jumping for joy. This is my chance to fix things with Dan.

If he brings Veronica with him... my mind drifts off remembering the last time he visited me. My excitement disappears and instead dissolves into sadness. I wanted to tell him how I felt, and that I didn't kiss Adrian...well not on purpose. He brain washed me. He convinced me that Dan was the one cheating on me.

I feel like a complete idiot. I take a glance down at my wrists, looking at the fresh scabs. My eyes start to dart around the room looking for something sharp, when I realize that there is one attached to me. I carefully remove the needle from under my skin. I instantly regret it.

I begin to feel light headed. My vision gets blurry and I try to yell but, I'm slurring my words. A tear falls onto my hand before everything goes black. The last sound I here in my monitor go flat.

A minute later I open my eyes. I'm staring out a window. What? why am I out of my bed? I turn on my heel to head back to my bed. I quickly stop realizing, I can't get back into my bed because I'm already in it.

I see nurses soon rush in through the door and swarm around me. I watch carefully, not remembering anything.

I sit and observe what is happening in a chair. Soon my monitor in on and annoyingly beeping again. I go and stand above, what looks like, a lifeless body. I'm very pale, not like usual, no I mean 'white as a ghost' pale. I look like I have no blood left in my body.

Soon Dan comes in. I watch him as he enters the room, oh, Veronica isn't with him, I think. I want to walk over and give him a hug but, I know he won't be able to feel it, so it's useless. Suddenly everything goes black for a moment, then I slowly begin to open my eyes. I'm back in my bed again.

I rub my eyes trying to get awake. My eyes quickly dart to Dan. He stands up and comes over to my side.

"Hey buddy, how ya feeling?" I look up at him confused. "Ok I guess...what happened and why do I feel like I have just vomited my entire inside's out?" His eyes shift to a different part in the room, "Well you um..." I can tell he is choking back tears, "You blacked out. The nurses said they found you hold the needle that was giving you your medical injection."

I hesitate for a moment,"Oh I see, that explains why I'm feeling this way." I let out a soft laugh. Dan looks down at me serious. "No Phil, this isn't a joking matter! You could have died because of what you did!" He walks over and takes a seat in a chair. Trying to change the topic I quickly ask, "So um where's Veronica?" He looks at me with fury in his eyes, "Oh so now you care? You had no problem making her feel like shit the last time we were here and now all of the sudden you care?!" He stands up furiously and walks over to the door and grabs the handle before looking back at me, "Unbelievable!" and slams the door shut.

I sit still in utter shock. A doctor soon walks in to tell me that I can go home in a few days. "We just need to make sure that you are doing ok after what happened today." I nod and thank the doctor. He walks out without another word.

Great, I think, Now I get to go home to an empty house all by myself.
