Over Again

Chapter 3

Where the hell am I? I look up and see an egg shell ceiling, and several monotiors next to me. I was in a hospitial bed in a gown that my butt hung out of. I glance to my left, and see a boy drawing with a sketch pad, a skateboard next to his lap. I dont know why, but he seemed....strikingly beautiful. He has the brightest green eyes...and his ruffled chesnut hair...its enough to make a girl run crazy. ugh, snap out of it Nixie!

"Ahem"

" Oh! You're awake! thank god, I thought you were dead!" The boys eyes light up, smiling.

"who are you?" I say flatly.

"Oh, um...I'm Leo."

"And why am I in a...hospitial?"

"That douche-bag Mason pushed you and you hit your head pretty hard. I picked you up and took you to an emergency room. I didnt want you to die or anything. and maybe i threw a punch or two.." He smirks, cute dimples appearing on his cheeks.

"you hit him?" I ask, confused. 

"uh..." He hesitated, "yeah...I did."

I nod in a thank you, smiling. "Uhm...so how long am I here for? and whats wrong with me? I feel sick."

" Question one: The doctor said until you woke. Question two: You have a concussion and a cut above your right eyebrow." He pointed to my eye. 

I impulsively felt above my brow. There I felt what felt like...stitches maybe? "Are these stitches?!"

" uh...yeah."

"Damnit."

"what?" He raised his eyebrow.

"I dont like scars. They last too long."

"Oh...well I will go get Dr.Mandea so she can discharge you."

"Okay..." I clutch my head in sudden pain as he leaves. Damn...how did this even happen? I never have wiped out before.. Ugh. Maybe I shouldnt have moved here. I know I was desperate to get away from my parents. Hell, I moved to a whole different continent! Maybe my decisons are not the best..

Jolted out of my subconsious, the doctor strolled in with a bag full my things, I guessed. She held a stack full of papers and a pen. 

"Miss...Black, am I right?"

I nod, smiling faintly.

"well, you have a moderate to servere concussion, and we gave you stitches up on your forehead. You seem well enough to leave, so we are going to discharge you to this boy...boyfriend I am guessing?"

Leo and I looked at eachother, him blushing wildly. I burst out in laughter, clenching my stomach to calm down. "Oh god no! He's just..he's uh...friend?" I look over at Leo for assurance. He smiles.

"Okay, here are your discharge papers and your things. You may get changed in the bathroom and fill out those papers. Once you are done, hand them to the lady at the front desk and you should be good to go!"

I grab the papers and the bag and carefully slide out of the bed. Leo jumps over to assist me, grabbing my waist to lift me off. He sets me cautiously down onto my feet.  Oh shit. I just remembered that my ass hangs out of this gown thing. I'm wearing a goddamn thong! shoooooooootttt. I instantly blush, pulling the sides of the gown together covering it. 

"You know, I didnt see nor touch anything. Calm down. but I do see a bit now....." He trails off, giving me a mischevious smirk.

"UGHHH" I run into the bathroom slamming the door shut. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We were just exiting the hospitial, me leaning on Leo because of my lack of balance and stability. He gently helps me into his suprisingly awesome Camaro, even fastening my seatbelt for me.

"So, what is your address? I need it so i can drop you off."

"Oh ummm 7701 s. Manger street."

"Okay thanks." Leo grabs out his Iphone and puts the address into the gps and starts the car.

Throughout the whole car ride, it was pretty silent. Well, besides the whole screamo music blasting. Once we arrived at my building, I gingerly step out, but once my right foot hit the ground, Leo leans over, grabbing my arm.

"w-wait." Leo tuggs on my arm.

"what?"

"Can I have your number? I was hoping we'd be able to meet up sometime, afterall you do kind of owe me for kicking that guys ass for you. And maybe since you are pretty beat up, I could stop by later with some Pizza and a movie?"

"One, I could've well kicked his ass myself. Two, Give me your phone, i'll put it in and Three, of course you can. Just make sure it has action and explosions"

He hands me his phone, chuckling, "Sure, you'd totally kick his ass while you were unconsious."

"Dude, you dont even realize my awesomeness!" I laugh, adding my contact to his phone, then handing it back.

"Obviously not! oh, and thanks..." he glances down at the screen, "Nixie? wow, Unusual name, but I like it."

"Yeah, um thanks!" I give him my famous half smile, and turn to walk away. I glance over my shoulder one last time saying, "See you later, Leo."
