Emmah's POV
Waiting. I've done this so much that I should be used to this now, but it still scares me every time. They took Jace into surgery today and are operating right now. I've spent too much time at hospitals these last couple months and believe me when I say it isn't fun.
I've been staying at the hospital the past few days with Jace, Kalee and Alex have came by everyday after school too so we have fun with each other. Alex mostly comes so he can come see me, I mean he does want to help Jace get better since they are good friends but mostly comes to see me.
"Hey Emmah, so they took him into surgery? As soon as school got out we raced over here. Oh! And your boyfriend got beat up."
I look to the door and see Kalee running towards me, Alex slowly following behind her, with his head down.
"Alex?" He lifts his head up when I say his name. God damn it Jace, he has a huge Black eye!
"Holy shit Alex?! Where the hell did you get that from?" I run to him instantly to see how bad his eye is. It's all swollen and black.
He nervously shifts his feet and won't make eye contact with me, even lets out a half hearted chuckle.
"Alex! Tell me where the hell you got a black from! If you don't I'm just gonna smack you in the eye until you do!" To prove my point I ready my hand to slap him, just in case he doesn't believe me.
He flinched back covering his eye, "Ok ok! Just don't beat me Emmah! Jesus Christ girl, don't talk for one second and your already threatening to slap me." He winks.
Ok, he doesn't think I will slap him and he's making fun of me. I don't care if he has a black eye, I reach forward and slap him across the face.
"Ow!" He turns his face from me and holds his hand over the place I slapped him.
"Hey, you pretty much invited me to slap you. So tell me where you got that Alex"
He faces me again and moves his hand from his face, "It happened at school today. It's kinda a long story."
"Well no shit it happened at school, you didn't have it yesterday, and I've got nothing but time so sit your pretty ass down and explain." I'm kinda acting like a bitch right now without meaning to.
"So you think my ass is pretty? We can go to our own room and.." I cut him off before he goes further with his idea.
"Yes your ass is nice but that's not what we are talking about right now so tell me what happened."
"We can just continue complementing my ass later babe," he winks again, "But I got into a fight with Andy at school today and he got me in the eye but I still won. He's suspended now." He pauses talking for a moment to see if I will say anything about that but I stay quiet so he continues.
"Well I guess him, that chick that beat you up a while ago, and Michelle made this little like hate group towards us and were planning to embarrass all of us at school. Last night when I was home, all of them were in my living room talking about something, I was too tired to pay attention so I went to bed. In the morning we woke up and went to school, Andy stopped me in the hallways before class and tried getting me to break up with you. I of course told him I wouldn't and then went to class."
"Wait, is Andy dating the chick who beat me up or something?"
"I don't think so, but the chick who beat you up is also my crazy ex that made us break up in the first place so she is still in love with me, and Andy thinks he's in love with you."
"Oh my God I totally friend zoned Andy like a while ago when he tried hitting in me! I thought he got the hint though. And I was dating you, his brother!"
