A/N: Hello my amazing readers!

Ok, I'm done rambling now.

Enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up sometime later, with a killer headache. Groaning, I sat up slowly, remembering what it felt like earlier. "Are you ok?" I heard a deep voice ask. Turning my head to the side, I saw Luke sitting on a chair with Shawn and Iz standing beside him.

"Hey, yeah I'm ok. What are you guys doing here?" I asked looking for something to drink.

"We came by to make sure you were ok. We were really worried about you." Iz said as she sat beside me on my bed. "Oh, here." She pulled out a bottle of water and handed it to me. "Thought you might need this."

"Thanks girl." I opened the water quickly and gulped it down. "How long have I been out for?" I asked curiously. I was really starting to dread all the stuff I've missed in school.

"You only missed a day, I got your math work for you to do." Iz told me bringing out a handful of paper.

My eyes bulged. "Did I really miss that much in a day?" I asked baffled.

"No, no, no. This is for the next month that you're going to miss." She said putting the papers back in her bag.

"The next month?" I questioned confused.

"Yeah, the doctor said you will have to stay home for a while until you get better. You did have surgery, you know?" She informed me.

Whoa, I'm going to miss all that school. What am I going to do for a month? I asked myself. "Thats a lot of missed school." I said out loud.

"We will be here for you." Shawn said as he stepped closer to me. I felt a tear threatening to escape so I quickly blinked it away.

"Thanks guys. That means a lot." I said with a smile.

Just then the door burst open to reveal a relieved looking Justin. "She's awake. Thank god." He said lifting his arms in the air praising the lord.

I giggled. "I think you mean thank the doctors.". Justin looked down on me and shrugged.

"How's my favorite girl doin'?" He asked sitting beside me.

"Im doing great actually. Thanks, Justin." I'm surprised he wasn't pulling a joke.

"Would you like anything?" He asked.

"No, I'm good." I held up my water for emphasis.

We all talked for a while, before Justin looked up at the clock and frowned. "Visiting hours are gunna-" The doctor came in that moment.

"Im sorry folks, but visiting hours are over. I'm going to have to ask you to leave so this young lady can get some rest." He said opening the door for everyone to leave.

They all grumbled and each gave me a hug and a 'get well soon'. "How are you feeling, Lily?" He asked checking the needle in my hand.

"I feel great." I told him truthfully.

"Well, how about we try and get you standing?" He asked with a gentle smile.

"Ok." The doctor grabbed my upper arm with one hand and the other in mine holding my weight. I sat up slowly and slung my legs over the side of the bed. This felt harder than I thought, I was sweating with all the effort it took.

"Take a breath, and we can stand when you're ready.". He said still holding my arm.

I took a deep breath and attempted to lift myself off the bed. When I put pressure on my legs, my stomach ripped in pain. I groaned and grabbed my stomach. "Sit back down, sit back down." The doctor said helping me back to the bed.
