My Best Friend's Brother is so...so..UGH!

Chapter 16

Payton's POV

We leave the shack that seemed to be in the middle of dark woods. Parked a few miles away was Luke's car which he unlocked, and set Elliot in the back. I sat with him and propped his head on my lap, while Luke started the car and drove us away.

The car was silent except the low hum of it and my sobs echoing. I moved his sticky black hair that was from  the blood out of his face, and traced my fingers on his lips. What used to be soft and smooth are now rough and had cuts on the bottom. His eyelids were closed and his white shirt from the party now had dirt and blood on it.

''He's gonna be okay.'' Luke said nonchalantly, eyes reflecting from the rear view mirror and hitting mine. I sigh heavily and nod,''I-I know,'' My voice filled with pain.

A few minutes passed, and we were soon pulling up to the near hospital. ''Go find some nurses and tell them to bring a wheelchair or something. I'll get Elliot. '' Luke said, pulling the keys out of the ignition and going over to the backseat door.

I gently remove Elliot's head, and retrieve from the car quickly.

************************************************************************************************

We waited patiently in the waiting room, and my eyes never left my shaking hands that were on my lap. Sweat covered them and my head was pounding with anticipation and anxiety. ''Um..Mrs. Tallon?'' a lady in a white outfit called out to everyone.

I look up and  rush over to her,'' Is he going to be okay?'' I ask, wiping tears from my cheeks with the back of my hand. ''Yes. He had a few cuts and close to a concussion. But otherwise, he's fine.'' she smiles, her brown hair flowing past her shoulders. I sigh happily and thank her,''He's awake if you'd like to go see him.''

I slowly creep the door open and walk in, my eyes immediately find Ellot's blue ones,''Hey,'' he smiles, him dressed in a a hospital outfit, an IV in his arm and the sound of the machine beeping. ''Hey, how you feeling?'' my smile matching his as I walk over to the side of his bed. ''A lot better.''he says, his smile a lot weaker than before.

My heart ached and I bit  my lower lip, my eyes falling on the IV that was in his hand. ''I'm glad you're okay.'' My voice cracking, and a lump forming in my throat. ''Payton...don't,'' he whispers, him putting a hand on mine gently. ''Don't what?! You're-You're hurt. And..'' Thats what all it took for me to break down into tears. I lean my head on his chest and continue to cry, feeling his hand on the back of my head and rubbing it soothingly.

Luke's POV!

I sat there in the waiting room all night, calling Payton's father and Carly, assuring them that everything was okay. I told them Elliot was in the hospital and Carly was coming in a few minutes and so was Payton's father.

A ton of memories found its way to my head. Payton's face was in my mind and my heart began to pick up speed. The way she smiled or looked at me was unbearable. It confused me. The feeling I had for her. I think-I think I'm in love with her.

Payton's POV

Last night was surprisingly fun, with Elliot and all. He told me all about the gangs and why he joined them and that he was sorry. I accepted it. and the rest of the night we kissed and watched re-runs of America's funniest home videos.

''ELLIOT!!! Thank god you're okay!!'' Carly's voice shrieked, as we watch her rush inside the room.

I feel Elliot's voice rumble his chest from him chuckling and I sigh with happiness, loving his laugh. ''I'm fine, Carl. Everything's okay,'' ''NO! NO YOU'RE NOT!! LOOK AT YOU!!!'' she screams, her eyes scanning every inch of his face.  '' Who did this to you?'' she whispers, her eyes saddened.

''James.''
