I wake with many machines hooked up to me and a stabbing pang comes from my stomach and I whimper softly. I think back to what happened and all I am wondering is Matt okay. "Matt!" I scream with a rusty voice sitting up too quickly, sending searing pain through me. The door opens quickly and someone sits down next to me. "Hey Ryan." I notice it's Chris and I look into his royal blue eyes.
"Matt will be in here in a moment, he's talking with the police." Tears run down my cheeks and I keep whimpering, thinking about how he left me. "Ryan-" "Just get out, please." He nods slowly and I see a tear roll down his cheek as he leaves. I wait in the darkness until the lights turn on. Matt stands there in a tee shirt and sweats. He has tears running down his face. "I'm so sorry." I giggle softly.
"A minor setback that's all." He laughs a little and then lifts my sheet and I see the thick bandaging around my stomach and he shakes his head. "This isn't minor, you almost died." I poke his nose and smile. "Well I'm not dead yet!" I say and laugh but that sends pangs through me and I grimace. He strokes my cheek and kisses my lips gently.
I wrap my arms around his strong neck and someone opens the door. "Matthew Gorge Fisher!" Her mother screeches and he breaks away quickly and I see the shock on her mother's face. "She must of haven't seen us kiss." "Matt, you have a lot of explaining to do." She says and he takes my hand. "I love her." He says softly and she shakes her head. "I refuse for you to see her."
"Why?" "She has a mental illness and I don't want you ending up taking care of her when you need to be taken care of more than she does!" "You don't know what she has gone through!" "Matthew we are leaving in five minutes and if you are not in the car I will make the police take you to your father's." She shuts the door and I put his face between my trembling hands. "It's okay, go with your mom." I whisper and he looks at me like I am insane.
"No! I'm staying with you-" "Matthew Gorge Fisher... You better get going, I'll be here waiting for you." I kiss his nose and he smiles. "Okay." Then he walks out. For the months that follow of physical therapy and healing I am allowed to leave. Me and Cameron were reunited at the hospital and will stay here until this custody battle is over. Matt drives me home and helps me into my apartment. "Here we are. I went to the store and bought you some groceries." I nod slowly and lay in my bed.
"Ryan, I gotta go alright? You know my mom-" "Please stay with me." I whisper and he strokes my hair. "What's wrong?" "I just don't want to be left alone tonight, it's my birthday." He looks at me and grins. "Well happy-" I cut him off right there. "No, my birthday's haven't been good sense my father was alive... When I was raising Cameron alone, my birthday was just another day to try to stay alive... And that's what I am trying to do, just stay here please." He lays down next to me and wraps his strong arms around me and I nestle my face into his bare chest and close my eyes, finding sleep with terrible nightmares to follow.
