As me and Joe continued our small talk I felt very weak and my eyes started to shut.
" hey you should probably rest" he looks at me with an innocent look and smiles. "What about you?" "I'll just stay here till you wake up. That chair looks very comfortable to sleep in" a chuckle escapes his mouth. He does not have to care for me but he is still here and in a way I want him to stay but that would just be selfish " you don't have to stay, you probably have someone waiting for you or you have things to do." He looks at me with a loving expression and shakes his head " do not worry about me" he smiles at me again and I could feel my cheeks getting red, there is something about his smile. I soon find myself asleep as joe was scrolling down his phone.

I wake up and look around the white hospital room I never liked hospitals they always remind me of death or something bad happening but maybe I am just being pessimistic.  The white chair that is in the corner of the room was empty, I scrunched my eyebrows and laid back in the bed, and found myself wondering about Joe. I stared outside the window of the room taking in the view of all the buildings outside. The door slowly and quietly opens as Joe appears in the door. He looks at me and stops in his track holding a cup of something looking like a deer who has been caught in the headlights. "I thought you were sleeping" I smile at him softly " no I just woke up" He smiles back at me and sits in the chair.

Soon the doctor entered the room for a check up he asked me about my pains and how I was feeling
and once he finished the check up and said I could go home, except there was an issue... I did not have where to go.

"Hey let me drive you home" Joe suggested. " Oh thank you, I'll be fine. You already done a lot for me" I reply to him. " Oh come on... I'm not letting you get a bus" I looked to the floor and agreed for him to drive me, but I didn't know what to do now. I started to panic a little bit because I don't want him to know that I don't actually have a home.

As we exited the hospital I pulled my phone out; which screen was smashed from me falling yesterday, I sent a message to my friend asking if I could stay hoping she will say yes, but there was no reply.

We got into Joes car as we made our way to my friends house. On the way he played some music and we made more small talk I kept checking my phone for a reply but there was nothing. Joe must of sensed something because he looked at me sideways. "Are you okay, you seem stressed" he questioned me which did not help as it sent me into a spiral of even more stress. "I am fine just the drugs wearing off" Once we arrived at the address I provided him with I gave him a hug and thanked for everything that he's done for me. I felt emotional and I didn't want him to leave but i knew I had to let him go. "Maybe we will catch up soon?" His voice sounded unsure but I nodded and gave him another hug "I hope" I stood outside the apartment as I watched him drive off into the distance.

Soon after I received a message from my "friend"

Sorry I am out of town xx

Now I didn't have where to go or what to do. I checked my pocket for money and all I could find was a fiver. I looked at my iPhone and saw that it was on 20%. I was absolutely screwed"
