Nadia's POV
12 hours later...
I woke up on the couch next to Derrick's hospital bed. The doctor told me that he would never be able to play basketball again and it hurt me cause basketball is his stress reliever.
It's his way of escaping life.
"Hey" my mom said.
"Hey" I replied.
"I'm gonna go get yoy something to eat." She said.
"It's no use... I'm not really hungry" I said sitting up slowly.
"You have to eat something"
"I'll eat lunch"
"It's 1 a.m."
"Well I'm going back to sleep" I said.
"Well I have to work in the morning so I'm gonna head home, call me if you need anything okay?"
"Okay, love you"
"Love you too"
She walked out of the room and I soon fell back asleep.
Nadia's Dream
I helped him up to bathroom in my room and let him take a shower while I got him a dry pair of clothes.
He walked out of the bathroom and caught me off guard.
Oh... uhh, umm wow" I whispered to myself.
You could see every muscle on his body it was amazing.
"You good?" He said.
"Mhmm" I said smiling.
He smiled as he walked over to me.
"Ma'am wake up" Someone said.
"Wake up"
I sat up slowly and heard the machine Derrick was hooked up to flatlining.
"Derrick " I said.
As I was being pulled away I reached out and touched his hand.
It was cold.
"Derrick!"
