*Nevaeh*

I Couldn't Stop Crying As Omar Rushed Me To The Hospital. My Ankle Was Hurting So Bad And It Just Felt Like It Was Broken. Thanks To Coach Gavin And All His Unnecessary Ass Yelling, I Got Flustered And Must've Buckled And Hurt My Ankle.

"We're Almost There." Omar Said. I Nodded As I Took A Few Deep Breaths To Calm Myself Down. Once We Got To The Hospital, Omar Carried Me Inside And Sat Me Right On The Desk.

"Omar Really?" I Said. He Ignored Me And Cleared His Throat Loudly.

"Excuse Me! She Needs To See A Doctor Right Away. Her Ankle Might Be Broken. " He Said. The Lady Rolled Her Eyes While She Smacked On Her Gum.

"What's The Patients Name?" She Asked.

"Nevaeh Smith." I Said.

"Mm. Take A Number And Go Sit Down. The Wait Time Is Fifteen Minutes." She Said. Omar Mumbled Something Under His Breath As He Took A Number, Picked Me Up, And Carried Me To A Nearby Chair. He Gently Sat Me Down And Sat Down Next To Me.

"Are You Okay?" He Asked. I Nodded My Head. Though My Ankle Was Throbbing Something Serious, I Ignored It.

"Breathe Through The Pain Is What My Dad Always Told Me." I Said.

"Words To Live By." He Said. We Sat Quietly For A Good Twenty Minutes Until My Name Was Finally Called. Omar Picked Me Up Bridal Style Once Again And Carried Me To The Back.

"You Know I Can Walk Right?" I Said.

"Nah. Not On That Ankle You Can't." He Said, Winking At Me. I Giggled As We Walked Into The Room And He Gently Sat Me On The Bed. The Nurse Started Asking Me Questions Like What Happened, When It Happened, And How It Happened...Blah, Blah, Blah. I Told Her Everything And She Nodded Her Head.

"The Doctor Will Be In Soon And He'll Determine If You Need An Ex Ray." She Said. I Nodded As She Gave Me An Ice Pack To Put On My Ankle. I Thanked Her And She Left. Omar Sat At The End Of My Hospital Bed And Held The Ice Pack To My Ankle. I Jumped At How Cold It Was And Omar Laughed.

"It's Not Funny!" I Said.

"The Situation Isn't Funny, But Your Facial Expression When This Pack Hit Your Ankle Was Hilarious!" He Said. I Rolled My Eyes And Covered My Mouth To Keep From Laughing. Omar Always Makes Me Laugh And That's Another Thing I Like About Him.

"This Shit Is Really Swollen." He Said.

"I Know. It Hurts Bad." I Said. I Pulled Out My Phone And Texted Naomii:

Me: Where Are You?

Twinkie👰👸: On My Way. Be There In Five Minutes. Is Omar Still There?

Me: Yeah...He's Icing My Ankle.

Twinkie👰👸: Awww...Ya'll Are So Cute!!!!

Me: Shut Up! Ugh!

Twinkie👰👸: Lol You Shut Up! We Both Know You Want Climb That Tall Tree. It's Okay...I Won't Tell.

Me: Goodbye Skyee! See You When You Get Here.

Twinkie👰👸: Whatever Starr!

I Sat My Phone Down And Closed My Eyes. Omar Was Still Holding The Ice Pack Onto My Ankle, But I Couldn't Feel It Anymore.

"Tired?" Omar Said.

"Very." I Said. He Chuckled As He Took The Ice Pack Off My Ankle. He Was About To Say Something Until There Was A Knock At The Door. I Opened My Eyes And My Jaw Dropped When I Saw Eli Walk Into The Room.

He Was Looking Down At His Clipboard, But When He Looked Up...His Eyes Widened When He Saw Me.

"Uh...Hi. I'm Doctor Williams. What Seems To Be The Problem?" He Asked.

"She Sprained Her Ankle And We Think It's Broken." Omar Said.

"I See. And Are You Her Boyfriend?" He Asked. I Shot Him A Look That Would've Killed His Ass Dead If Looks Could Kill.

"No Sir. I'm Her Coach." He Said.

"Oh Okay. Well...Let Me Take A Look." He Said. He Started Examining My Ankle And I Winced At The Pain. I Checked My Phone And Noticed Naomii Had Finally Made It.

"Hey...Naomii Is Here. Could You Go Get Her?" I Asked Omar. He Nodded And Left The Room. There Was An Awkward Silence As Eli Continued Looking At My Ankle.

"So...How Have You Been?" He Asked.

"Fine." I Said, Dryly. He Sighed And Looked Up At Me.

"Nevaeh I Wanted To Call You. I Really Did." He Said.

"But You Didn't." I Said.

"I Know, But It Wasn't Safe For You Or Me." He Said.

"What Do You Mean?" I Asked.

"Listen...Your Dad..." He Began, But He Was Cut Off By Naomii And Omar Walking Into The Room.

"Hey Are You Okay?" Naomii Asked. I Nodded.

"Well The Good News Is...Nothing Is Broken. You Just Have A Severe Sprain. The Bad News Is You May Have Possibly Torn A Ligament As Well. So I'm Going To Wrap A Compression Wrap Around Your Ankle So That The Swelling Can Go Down. Make Sure To Switch It Out Every 24 Hours. Also, Continue To Use Ice Packs And Soak Your Ankle In Some Epsom Salt Water. Keep Your Leg Elevated And Get Lots Of Rest. I'll Even Give You Crutches To Use So You Don't Have To Put Pressure On Your Ankle. Any Questions?" He Asked. I Shook My Head.

"Alright. I'll Be Right Back." He Said. I Nodded As He Left The Room.

"Mm, Mm, Mm. Eli Sure Is Fine." Naomii Said, Looking At Me. I Rolled My Eyes.

"Well How About You Go Get On With Him!" I Snapped.

"Uhhh No Thank You. Doctors Really Aren't My Taste. I Like Teachers." She Said. We Both Started Laughing.

"Ya'll Are Crazy." Omar Said.

"As Long As You Know!" Me And Naomii Said At The Same Time.
