Austin and I rush into the hospital and strait to the receptionist.
"We're here for Pheonix hills. Can you tell us were she is" Austin asks.
"You boys made right on time. She just woke up and the doctor checked on her. She's stable and is fine but we need to keep her for a few days. She hit her head hard and also, were you aware she cuts, sir" the lady says.
"No. I thought she qiut" Austin says.
"Well the scars are fresh. So we will keep her here because of loss of blood from the cut from her head in the car accident and to make sure her depression is stable. OK. Room 345" the lady finally finishes.
We rush to the room as fast as we can and stop as we see two doctors come out.
"Sir" Austin yells to one.
He turns and smiles.
"We're here to see that patient. I'm her brother and this is her boyfriend. Um... I forgot to ask the lady up front but who was driving" Austin asks biting his lip.
My inside flip hearing him call me her boyfriend.
"Oh, that would be Carter Smith" the doctor says and my blood boils.
Carter. The one who used to fuck her. Ohh. That boy better watch his back. I'll rip his throat out. Austin nods and we walk into the room. What I see makes me melt. She lays there hooked up to machines and a heart monitor. She actually is sleeping. Thanks lady for the lie.
Austin steps forward and swipes a hand over her face. She has a bandage on her head from the cut and bruises and cuts everywhere else.
I step forward also and take her hand. Don't do this Pheonix. Wake up again, I need you. I feel something on my cheek and wipe it away. I look at it and its clear and wet. A tear. I'm crying. I never cry. Not since my parents died. This girl really is doing something to me.
I look up at Austin and he's staring at me.
"You really do like her. Don't you" he asks.
I look down at her again and swipe my thumb over her cheek.
"Like her. No.... I love her. I love her that it feels like someone is tearing out my heart right now" I whisper.
I see Austin nod before going to the door.
"I'll go get some coffee for us" he says before exiting the door.
I pull a chair up and sit down next to her. Her breathing is a little ragged but she's fine other then that. Except for her injuries of course.
"I love you, Pheonix. Don't leave me" I sigh and kiss her hand.
**************
Its been four hours and now its night outside. She's still asleep and I stare at her sleeping figure. Austin fell asleep on the coach and I texted my sister Cher about what happened.I get up to go to the cafiteria to get some more coffee. Determined to stay awake until she wakes up.
As I enter the waiting room about to turn a corner someone catches my eye. Carter, sitting in a waiting chair with a black eye and bruised jaw. Otherwise he looks fine.
My jaw clenches and I stomp up to him. He looks hearing someone approche and stands quickly. Seeing its me.
"How dare you. You need to leave. You don't get to be here when your the cause" I growl.
"I just want to make sure she's ok. I'm sorry about the crash. I was tired that day. She kept me up all night the night before" he says.
"What do you mean" I say through my teeth.
"Not like that. Her depression is back. She was up screaming and yelling last night. Wanting to cut herselve. I had to hold her down or drug her to keep her asleep and safe. She was bad. She had nightmares and wouldn't stop yelling" he tells me.
I feel my eyes water but refuse. I want cry in front of him.
"What was she yelling about" I ask.
"More like who she was yelling about. She was yelling you name. Wanting you to be there. But you were at that party drinking" he spits.
I flinch and glare at him.
"You don't care for her. Your no better then me. Just wanting her body" he seethes.
And I snap. I jump and we tomple to the ground. I throw punch after punch. He gets a few in but I don't let that stop me. Security guards come to pull us apart and I glare at Carter.
"I am way better then you. I fucking love her you shit" I scream.
"Dustin" someone yells
I look over to see Austin.
"She's awake" he calls.
My eyes widen and I get out of the security guards hold. Running down the hall after Austin. Soon we make it to the room and I walk in. I smile when her head snaps up. Her sea green eyes are filled with tiredness. My heart tightens as she smiles back at me.
I go stait over and hug her.
"Hey, bueatiful" I whisper in her ear.
"Hi" her voice is low and weak but its her.
And I'm happy that she's here now.
