After 10 minutes, Dr. Quinn came in and checked me over.
"You look good sweetheart. Just lots of rest, okay?" She smiled.
"Okay, thanks for everything." I smiled back, she waved me off and left the room. I looked over at Alec, he hadn't looked up from his phone the whole time. I stood up, causing Alec to stand up and walk towards me.
"Hey, can you please pass me my clothes?" Alec grabbed my clothes and handed them too me, our hands touched, it felt electric. Alec pulled away immediately, and went to go sit back down. I walked to the bathroom in my hospital room, and took off my medical gown. Right below my bra line, the bruise Zack gave me was now a darker purple-ish, blue color. The yellow ring around it was much more visible as well. I turned and looked at my side, a dark red spot right below my ribs. I covered my mouth, and let the tears slowly trickle down my cheeks. While silently sobbing, I got dressed. I wiped my tears away, and composed myself, looking back into the mirror. I was so emotional over something that was my fault. All I saw in the mirror was an ugly, no good, slut. I should have listened to Zack, I wouldn't be here if I would've just listened. Ugh, I'm so stupid! Mom and Dad will hate you even more now, foolish girl. You should have just listened. I knew it wasn't my fault, but I couldn't help that I felt like it was.
"Callie, hurry up." Alec impatiently knocked on the door. He hated me too now, lost my boyfriend and a good friend. Great, just fucking great.
"I'm coming." I opened the door, and with him being 6'0, and me being 5'3, ran into Alec's chest. Apparently he hadn't moved from the door frame. I backed up, and walked past him.
"Can I borrow your phone, I left mine at Z-" I stopped mid-sentence, then continued while reaching for my shoes. "I need to call Kate for a ride." I looked at Alec, and he just laughed.
"I'll just drive you home, come on." He started walking towards the door.
"You can't drive me home." I blurted out, smooth Callie, real smooth. Alec paused and turned around, smirking his devilish smirk.
"And why is that?" He humorlessly laughed.
"Because things are awkward with us, you said you loved me." I wrapped my arms around my stomach.
"You believed that shit? I don't fall in love with girls, I play them. I was just trying to cheer you up." He rolled his eyes. Wow Callie, your fucking dumb. Of course it meant nothing, he's the hockey jock, who just sleeps around with girls. He never would date a girl, no strings sex was his thing.
"Then, let's go." I pushed pass him and walked out of the room, and down the white hall.
Once we make it to his truck, we started started towards Kate's apartment.
"You can just take me to my place." I say deadpan.
"You can't be alone, you just got outta the hospital." He laughed, and I was done. He fucking played me, while I was in the hospital, and stopped giving 2 fucks about how I was. So now he's gonna care again? Fuck that. Call this over reacting but I don't care at this point.
"Okay, thanks for taking care of me last night, but take me home." I glared out the window.
"No can do, sorry Cal." Cal? That's new.
"Can we at least stop at 7/11? I need some snacks."
"Yeah." Alec turned down a street, and we pulled into 7/11.
"Need money?" He asked, eye brow raised.
"No, I have some." I pulled out 4 $20's from my bra.
"Well hurry." I hopped outta the truck, and into 7/11. There was a door by the bathrooms that lead back outside, behind the building. It turned right onto the street of my house. I walked down the chip aisle, and down the hall to the bathroom. I pushed open the door, and walked onto the sidewalk. I started jogging towards my small apartment, it was 4 houses down. Once I made it to my door, I pulled out my key from under the welcome mat. Once inside, Bruno practically ran me over.
"I missed you too baby boy." I sat down on the floor, and let Bruno tackle me. He was a 110 lb. Blue Nose Pittbull. My mom tried talking me into a little fluffy thing, but yeah, hell no. I wanted a dog that could protect me from the bad people in the world.
"Open the fucking door, Callie!" I jumped back, Bruno was barking. I pushed Bruno away, and stood up. Bruno jumped up, his paw landing directly on the bruise on my stomach.
"Ow, fuck Bruno! Kennel." I pointed to his kennel, and he walked into it, I latched the door and jogged to the door.
"Im fine, you can leave. Thanks for everything tho." I looked through the peep hole, Alec was running his hands through his hair. He looked annoyed.
"Just open the fucking door, or I'll bust it down." He was pissed, and I thought I was over reacting. I smiled and laughed, he was stupid.
"You do that, and my neighbors will call the police. Don't be stupid Alec." I laughed, he smiled.
"Okay, you got me. Please open the door now." His annoyance played across his handsome face.
"What's the passcode?" I smirked like a little kid again. He smiled and started to think, I could tell when he thought of an answer because his face lit up.
"That's easy, it's 'Callie is the most booty-ful girl in the whole wide galaxy'. Duh!" I burst out laughing, my stomach stinging from laughing, but I didn't care. I unlocked the door, and let Alec in, he hugged me. Taken back for a second, I just stood there. Not really sure what I should do about this.
"I hate you." He laughed, and let me go.
"I get that a lot, I mean I'm kinda a bi-" Alec covered my mouth with his mouth. Like a deer in head lights, I just stood there.....again. He pulled away an smile at me, I won't lie. Alec's an amazing kisser.
"I've waited two years for that kiss, the least you could do is kiss me back." He smirked.
"This is too fast." I freaked out, I mean he was- is Zack's bestfriend. I can't date him, especially right after what happened literally last night.
"I get it." Alec slumped out the door, and left. I just stood there, awkwardly waiting for some cliché moment.
"This isn't a fairytale, get over yourself Callie." I muttered as I shut the door.
