Secret Crushes

The Trip To Noah's Brother

Faith's P.O.V.
I woke up on my bed by myself. I could tell Noah was just here because his spot next to me was warm. I looked around to see if I could find him but I couldn't. I picked up my phone and texted him but his phone buzzed on the nightstand on his side of the bed. Ugh! I tried to sit up and I did pretty well considering the amount of pain I was in. I was about to stand up when something in my back cracked and I fell on the floor. *THUD* I heard footsteps running up the stairs as I laid on the floor crying in agony. Noah walked in, frantically looking around and ran to me when he saw me on the floor. "Are you okay??" He leaned down to pick me up but when he touched me I screamed in pain. "No no don't touch me!" He looked scared and hurt. "Hang on baby." He grabbed his phone, dialed 911 and yelled for Chris. Chris came running up the stairs as Noah got through to an ambulance. "Oh my god, what happened!?" "I tried to stand up and I heard a crack and fell. I can't move." I was so scared and I started crying even though it hurt to breathe. "Don't worry baby they're coming."

Noah's P.O.V.
I hated seeing her like this. And the worst part was I couldn't do anything about it. We heard sirens and Chris went down to get them. The paramedics ran in and asked what happened as the dropped to the floor to examine her. "She tried to stand up and she said she heard a crack and fell. She can't move." "Has she had any trauma to her back recently?" "Alot, actually." "Okay. Faith, can you feel this?" I had to turn away. They stuck a huge needle in her spine and I almost puked. "No." I started crying. What if she was paralyzed. I was gonna kill Derek and Tabitha. I didn't care if I went to jail. They hurt my baby. The paramedic looked at me concerned. "Okay. We're gonna put you and the stretcher, okay?" "Okay." She sounded scared but I made sure I stayed by her side the whole time. They even let me in the ambulance with them, which was cool. They gave her anesthesia so she wouldn't be in pain or aware of anything going on. "She may have serious injuries to her back. Some may even be permanent." I looked at her, my heart hurting. "I don't care. No matter what happens." I held her hand. He looked at me with a serious face. "When we get to the hospital they're going to take xrays and do tests to figure out what's wrong." I nodded. We pulled up to the hospital and I helped them push the stretcher into the hospital. I saw my older brother, Shane, he worked here as head surgeon and as soon as he saw me he took Faith as his patient. "Hey little brother. What are you doing here??" "This is Faith." He looked at me in disbelief. "It is. Tabitha and her ex have been attacking her nonstop and something happened to her back " "Okay. Don't worry, she'll be okay." He patted me on the back and took her in for xrays. I paced back and forth like an expecting father until Shane came out. He didn't look thrilled and he sighed when he got to me. "She needs surgery..." "What's wrong with her?" "That crack you heard was her ribcage. It snapped where her ribcage connects to her spinal cord." I put my hand over my mouth and fought back my tears. "Is it...fixable??" He nodded. "It's difficult but it can be done." "Okay." He hugged me and assured me everything would be okay. "I'll do my very best to fix her." "Thank you." "Go sleep it's like 10:30 at night. He patted me on the back and messed up my hair as I walked away. I turned back. "Shane?" "Yeah?" "Can I see her before I go?" He gestured for me to follow him. He brought me to a room and the nurses were prepping her for surgery. Her face lit up when she saw me. "Noah." She reached out to me and I took her hand in mine. "Hello, love." She smiled at me. "I guess this is happening, huh?" "Yeah. Don't worry. This is my big brother, Shane. Head surgeon. He's gonna make sure you're okay baby." Shane nodded and set the clipboard down. "He talks about you all the time. Well, when he's actually home that is. Pleasure to meet you." "You as well." The nurses were about too put her on anesthesia so I said goodbye. "Bye baby. I love you." "I love you too." Her smile faded as she fell asleep. "Night kid." He rubbed my hair again and I looked back at him walking away. "Night weirdo. Please take care of my girlfriend. She means the world to me." "Don't worry. I got this." I waved to him and walked out of the hospital.
