Mariella: What happened to him?!
Tyler: I only got to speak with him for a few minutes, but he says he's fine.
"He's fine?" He's in the hospital! That's never okay. Why didn't he tell me?!
Mariella: I'll be outside!
I hang up, before Tyler could reply. I rush into the living room.
Mariella: Sawyer's in the hospital!
Veronica: Wait, what?
Mariella: Tyler just called and said Sawyer's in the hospital. He's coming to get me now.
She frowns.
Veronica: What happened?
Mariella: He doesn't know! He only got to speak with him briefly.
I was frantic. What if Sawyer was on the verge of death?!
Mariella: Can you just put my laundry in the dryer once it's done. I'm going to wait outside.
Veronica: Ok-...
I slam the door behind me, before she could finish. I race down the steps, searching for Tyler's car.
Where is he?! I pace rapidly, back and forth. What's taking so long?! A car pulls up, honking the horn.
FINALLY!!
I run to the passenger side, jumping in.
Mariella: Let's go!
Tyler: Mariella, calm down. He did say he was fine.
Mariella: I won't believe it till I see him!
No one is taking this seriously?!
I was upset, nervous and angry all at the same time. My mind was running wild. Why doesn't anyone tell me anything anymore?!

Tyler: Can you tell me where Sawyer Hartman's room is?
The nurse took her sweet time looking at the clipboard. I was about ready to reach around and snatch it out of her hand to look for myself!
Nurse: He's in room 305. Follow me.
I had never been inside a hospital before. All I knew was that people who were deathly ill and in horrible accidents checked in. I was scared. We pass several rooms before the nurse stops, knocking
?: Come in..
Who was that? Someone else is in there with him.
She opens the door.
Nurse: Mr. Hartman you have visitors.
Tyler steps in before I do. I was prepared for the worst. Blood everywhere, multiple bandages, less limbs.. When I enter, I'm shocked. There laid Sawyer, smiling. His right leg in a cast. A female doctor standing beside him.
Sawyer: You guys made it.
Tyler: How are you feeling?
Sawyer: Pretty good.
I was speechless. He's acting like nothing happened.
Tyler: What happened to your leg?
The woman doctor chimed in.
Doctor: It seems your friend was a little too competitive today on the beach and managed to break his leg.
Sawyer scratches the back of his head, grinning.
Sawyer: Yeah.. I went to the gym with Evan and than the beach. We decided to play a friendly game of football with a couple of locals and things got rough.
Football? Since when does he play football?
Tyler: Did you even win?
Everyone laughed, except me. Sawyer glances over in my direction.
Sawyer: Mariella?
Why is he acting like everything is okay? He's hurt and didn't even bother to let me know he was in the hospital.
Sawyer: Mariella.. Hey?
I was about to reply when the doctor began to speak.
Doctor: Is this your girlfriend?
He shook his head, smiling.
Sawyer: No, She's not.
What? He answered so quickly.. Why are you smiling?
Doctor: Oh, sister?
Sawyer: No. She's just a good friend.
"Good friend?"
Doctor: I see. Well, I'll finish up your paperwork an than we can discharge you.
Sawyer: Alright, thanks.
She leaves the room.
Sawyer: Babe, you okay?
Now he wants to call me "babe"? What is this?
I mumble trying to form sentences.
Mariella: Why didn't you call me..
I felt tears welling up in my eyes.
Sawyer: What?
I don't get it..
I turn towards the door, dashing out.
Sawyer: Mariella!
Asshole!
