Why him?!

All Better?

   I slowly start to wake up and I notice Amber isn't with me. And my phone is gone. Uhhhhh.?????

"Amber!?" I speak loudly.

Instead of Amber replying I hear a mainly voice..shoot.

Mr. Ione.

"She's outside Joseph! " He yells from somewhere.

I get out of the bed and head outside.

On my way out Mr.  Ione nods at me and I nod back. I notice his suit is all messed up, he must have had a rough day.

  I open the door and see Amber sitting in the grass, wearing a robe.

She's talking to someone on my phone.

"I just, couldn't do anything anymore. I was tired of, everything. And I thought of Joseph. ..and his ..arms and..." She says.

She did this because of me?

.

.
I gave her the idea?

Oh my gosh

I run back inside and grab everything I had, besides my phone of course.

I tell Mr. Ione I'll be back for my car later. But I take the back door and begin walking home. I have to go think about this.

She did this, because she saw my scars!?

Oh gosh.

On my way home, I don't know when I turned or when I decided not to go home, but I ended up in front of the hospital.

I sigh and take a deep breath,  and walk into the building. I tell the lady I'm here to see Mike and she smiles and tells me to just go on back.

I knock on his door and slowly open it, giving a small smile to him but he wasn't even paying attention.  He's on the phone, facing away from the door.

I shut the door quietly.

"Amber, don't ever think you can't do anything. You are strong and you can handle anything" Mike says.

So that's who she's talking to. I clear my throat a bit, so he notices me.

It worked! He turns around and looks shocked, but he sees the hurt in my eyes and tells Amber he has to go.

Once he hangs up, he turns around and motions for me to come sit with him. I take a seat next to him.

"Joey wants wrong? I thought you were at Amber's? " He says.

I put my hands together and rub them, trying to gather all my emotions. And once he sees that something is totally wrong, he puts his hand on my knee.

"Joey. I'm not saying this as Austin's best friend, I'm saying this as yours. I'm always here for you and I'll never leave. I don't want you to ever think that I wont support you in any way" Mike says, rubbing my knee.

I look down into my lap, afraid that I might cry. "Wow,uh. " I can't finish my words because I start crying.

"Come here. " Mike reaches his arms out and I fall into his arms.

He rubs my back soothingly whilst whispering nice words into my ears. And before I knew it, I was asleep.

I start to stir in my bed, I felt weird. I grab the covers and pull them over me tighter. I try to grab my pillow and flip it on the cool side but I can't flip my pillow! What type of pillow.......
