The doctor comes over to us and Katelin's face goes white.
"The surgery went well, but he lost three pints of blood, which isn't good for him in this situation. We need someone to donate. Would any of you be willing?" He says hastily.

"What blood type does he have?" I ask in haste.

"A-negative." My face drops and my heart sinks. I don't have that blood type, and neither does Katelin.

"I will." Anthony speaks loudly and fast.

"Are you sure?" The doctor and I say at the same time.

"Yes." He says starring at me.

"Okay let's go on back then." The doctor says turning around.

Anthony walks to me hugs and kisses the top of my head and goes back with the doctor. I can't believe he volunteered. He has never even met Drake, before tonight he didn't even know he existed. Now if that isn't someone trying to prove that they like you then I don't know what is.

After a short while Anthony comes back and looks a little dazed. The doctor follows a few feet behind. 

"Thank you Anthony, we have transmitted the blood and you all can go back to see him." The doctors says with happiness.

Katelin practically runs to his room. We walk to the room and I pull Anthony aside before stepping in.

"You didn't have to do that. But thank you for it." I say in a hushed tone.

"Well I know how much he means to you. Your welcome, and I know I didn't HAVE to but I was hoping maybe it would help my case." He says with an eery smile. My heart melts. He's trying so hard for me to like him.

"Well it definitely did." I say as I kiss his cheek and turn away to go into Drake's room.

I walk into the room and see Drake in the hospital bed with Katelin laying next to him. I walk to the other side of the bed and give him a hug. I pull the chair as close to the bed as it will go. "My friend Anthony....he donated blood to you." I tell Drake as he begins to stare at Anthony who is standing across the room. Drake looks shocked.

"Really? Thanks dude." He gestures Anthony to walk over towards him an shakes his hand.

"You don't need to thank me." Anthony says stepping back.

"Yes I do." Drake isn't the type to let something go unnoticed. "How about when I get out of here I take you and your girl out." He says gesturing towards me when he says your girl. "Katelin will go with us too."

"You really don't have to did that, and she's not m-" I cut him off as he is about to say what I think he is.

"Thank you Drake. But you really don't have to take my boyfriend and I out."

"Sophie." Drake says sternly "I'm taking you and your boyfriend, Anthony out with me and Katelin when I get out whether you like it or not. So don't argue with me." He says with a smile forming on his face.

We stay with Drake until around 3:30 in the morning. Katelin tells us to go home that she is going to stay with Drake. Makynze left around 12 so it's just me and Anthony. We walk to his car and get in. We ride in silence for about 20 minutes. "Why did you tell him I was your boyfriend?" Anthony asks. Like boy why can't you just accept the fact that I'm into you.

"Because I've decided that I want to be with you." I say sheepishly.

"But I didn't ask you out again." He is starting to make me feel nervous.

"Oh.." I say as my voice trails off.

"I want to be with you too. Don't think I don't, just I want to make asking you out special." He says reassuring me of his feelings.
