*Maya's POV*

I can't believe Riley came to see me, she gave blood for me, she bought me some things. I did nothing to deserve this, in fact I deserve the opposite of this. I don't deserve her, she deserves someone better. But she chose me of all people... and I'm not going to take that for granted.
I was still a little drowsy and weak but I wasn't going to sleep whilst a Riley's here. I'm being moved into the mental unit tomorrow and I don't know when I'll see her after that.
I noticed that behind Riley, Topanga whispered something to Riley's younger brother Auggie and a little smile lit up his face. He fumbled around for something in his pockets and eventually pulled out a folded piece of paper. His little eyes met mine and he slowly stood up, walked towards me and handed it to me. "I made this for you." the little boy mumbled and ran back to his parents. I unfolded the paper on my lap to uncover a drawing done in crayon. It was a picture of Riley and next to it read, You make her happy and that makes me happy. Please stay. -Ayggie. I think that was the sweetest and cutest thing anyone had ever done for me. "Don't worry Auggie. I'm not leaving, trust me." I reassured him. He smiled until his mouth reached his ears, I'm glad I could make someone happy.
We talked for an hour or so until the nurse came in. "Maya we're going to discharge you for a day under the constant supervision of your parents." Mr and Mrs Matthews smiled and waved at me. "We'll contact them tomorrow which will decide on whether we'll bring you back in or not." Next to me Riley was shaking, she looked like she was about to explode. The next thing I heard was, "yyyyyyyyyyyYYYYyyyyYYYYAAAAAAYYYYY" Riley was bouncing up and down in excitement. She reached over and gave me a really tight hug. I winced, a very sharp pain had me move away instantly. "Sorry." She mumbled. "No no it's okay." I replied and reached my arms out to hug her again.
"We'll unplug you from everything in a minute. You'll have to keep your bandages on for at least a week maybe more. But we'll discharge you in less than half an hour." The nurse said and she came over to me with a tray and started to remove all the random bits and bobs I had no idea of what they were. I twisted myself around so that my feet were hanging off the edge of the bed, and stood up. Almost instantly I felt weak and I would have fallen over if Riley hadn't caught me in time. "Thank you." I spoke quietly as I regained my balance. Riley and I made our way to the waiting room whilst Mr and Mrs Matthews were filling out many forms.
Half a hour later we were off to the Matthews residence, and apparently my new home.
