Forbidden Love (A Ross Lynch Love Story)

Save Me

Cat's POV

I put the last glass container on the third shelf from the bottom, and collapsed on to the floor. Four agonizing months later, I had gotten a job at Sandi Labs on the Hollywood strip. Putting away chemicals, and locking up the building. I was mentally defeated, as I am everyday, after thinking about Ross all day, as I do everyday.

I miss his smile, his eyes, the way he felt against me. I remember it all. His taste, his smell, the way he feels. And that's all I could think about. Everyday, I was just a shell of myself.

I've hidden from the media, not like Ross would care if he heard about me or not.

I looked at the watch on my wrist. 8:15. I should probably get home. I looked up at the ceiling and noticed the glass container I had just put away was precariously tilting back and fourth, I had accidentally neglected to pull it on all the way.

I stayed absolutely still, hoping that would somehow keep it from falling over the edge.

I knew the second the glass tipped too far forward over the edge and time seemed to slow. I watched it come down and crash open into my upper left calf. The glass shattered everywhere and the liquid poured on to the back of my leg. I laid absolutely flat and looked down on my leg. A price of the glass didn't break. A price which had a label over it.

I picked it up and brought it to my face to read it.

"Sulfuric acid."

"SHIT!" I screamed and got up and ran. I got my ID into the first electronic door before the pain set in. I felt like someone had pour gasoline on my leg and set it on fire. I weakly limped to the second door and got my key card in. It opened. I took a step out and fell to the ground. The hand washing station was just out of reach.

I knew you had to wash it off as fast as you fucking can because that would burn your leg OFF. The pain was all too much but I somehow managed to stand up and get my leg up in the sink letting the cool water run all over it. I pulled out my phone.

"911, fire, police, or ambulance?"

"I just spilt about four ounces of sulfuric acid on my- FUCK"

I screamed because of the pain.

"Ma'am what is your address?"

"Sandi Labs."

"Ma'am, where-"

"HELP ME!" I screamed as loudly as I could, and then everything was black.

I woke up to a dull beep in a white room. I looked around, moving my eyes, not my head. I saw flowers and a card on the table to my right. I couldn't feel anything. I reached down to the right and found the nurse call button, and soon came a perky brunette.

"What can I help you with?"

"Let me leave."

"You sweetie, you can leave any time, we were just waiting for you to wake up. Do you have someone over 18 to sign you out?"

"I'll sign her out." I voice behind her said. I heard the beeping become faster and I moved my heard towards the seat by the door. I saw Ross sitting there. His beautiful hair was disheveled from running his hands through it recently, he had tired bags around his bright eyes, and he had a soft, worried smile on his face.

"I'll leave you two." The nurse said softly, and left.

"Ross." I whispered as a tear slid down my face. "Cat.." He trailed off and ran over to my bed. He gingerly touched his hands to my face and kissed my forehead.

"I'm so sorry." He whispered as tears poured freely from both his eyes and mine.
