Harmful Youth

x Surprises x

I woke up 3 days later in the Baptist Hospital of Miami. Haley was sitting by my bed side, holding my hand with her head resting on my lap.

"H-Haley?"

She jumped up,"Oh my god. Hannah!" She hugged me and I tried to move my arm to hug her back, but it was restrained to the side of the bed and heavily bandaged. Shit. Failed suicide attempt.

"Ouch." It hurt to move.

There was a knock at my room's door. Who could it be?

Dillion. Great timing....

"Hey Hannah." His warm smile made me smile.

He pulled his hands out from behind his back and handed me a bouqet of roses," I thought you might like these."

I started crying and smiling, "Thank you. I love them."

He hugged me.

I turned to Haley, "Can we have a moment?"

She winked and nodded, she went out into the hallway.

"So what made you do this? If you don't mind me asking."

"It's a long story..."

"I have all the time in the world for you, Hannah." He smiled.

I explained to him every bit of what happened, between Jasper and I. My secret spot. Me cutting. Everything. And by the time I was done Dillion was crying and had his hand over his mouth in complete and utter shock.

"Hannah....."

"Yea, that's why."

He wiped his tears away and hugged me. It hurt, but I smiled anyways.

"Hannah, I need to ask you something...."

"Ask away."

"Hannah, will you go out with me? I promise I will treat you like a princess. I will treat you right. I will be there for you when you need me. Always. Please say yes. I want to make you happy and feel important."

Haley opened the door, "Just say yes, Hannah!" She was listening? Really? I smiled with tears welling up in my eyes.

"Yes." He kissed me on the cheek.

His face lit up. You could see the excitement in his face. His eyes were like a sparkling ocean. They were a light blue. They were gorgeous. He was gorgeous.

    2 days later....

Dillion hadn't left my side in the 2 days, except once for like 15 minutes.He asked me if I needed anything while he went downstairs to the gift shop, but I said no. He went to the gift shop to get me an adorable stuffed bear. It was sky blue, my favorite color, it had a pink bow on it's paw and under it, it read, "I love you."

I still was leery of any guy due to Jasper, but I was beginning to trust Dillion more and more.

The doctor came in, "Miss Hannah, How are you today?"

"I'm good."

"Any thoughts of hurting yourself or others?"

"Nope."

"Okay. That's good."

He asked me at least 20 questions....

"It seems to me that you are well enough to go home."

"Really? That's awesome." Haley sounded exhausted.

"Nurse Mein will be in shortly to have you sign her discharge papers." Dr. Hagett walked out.

I looked at Dillion, "I don't want to be away from you." I frowned.

"I can stay with you at your house. IF that's okay with you Haley..." She smiled and looked at me.

"Hannah, I like this kid. He's a keeper." She giggled and turned to Dillion, "Of course you can stay with us."

 About 3 hours later we were home and Dillion and I were laying in my bed watching tv. Dillion wasn't really watching, he has stayed up all day and night at the hospital to watch over me, so he was laying on his side snuggled up to me with his hand wrapped around my side.

The tv screen flashed to an emergency broadcast.... I went numb with fear as I saw and escaped prisoner bulletin....Jasper. I started shaking as the tv blared.

"Jasper Riley Jenziih escaped from the Florida State Penitentiary Center this morning at approxximatly 10 a.m.  Be on the look out for this man. He is considered armed and extremelty dangerous. Do not confront him, he is said to be hostile. He is 6''6, hazel eyes, said to have a 5 o'clock shadow, maybe or may not be wearing a prison suit. Use caution and contact your local police immediatly if you see him."

I jumped up out of Dillion's arms and ran to Haley who was watching same thing as me. Her face went pale and she was fear-struck. Dillion ran in behind me.

"Hannah, I promise I won't let him touch you. I may be scrawny but I can fight. He won't lay a single finger on you. He'll hove to get past my cold dead body."

Haley called the police to see if an officer would come out to our house in case Jasper showed up. 

"Officer please the longer you wait the....." Haley trailed off. 

The door flew open, it had been kicked in. Jasper.

"HELP HELP OFFICER! HE'S HERE I NEED SOMEONE OUT HERE IMMEDIATLY!!!!"  Haley was screaming on the phone. 

Dillion inched away and snuck into the kitchen. Some help he was. 

Jasper started walking towards me in his orange jumpsuit, "Hello, slut." 

"Stay away from me." I snarled. 

"Or what?"

Haley punched him. 

He pushed her down and slapped her, "Stupid bitch."

I lost it. No one called her a bitch. I had been keeping knives every where in the house just in case. I pulled one off the book shelf and held it up. 

He pulled out a gun. 

"Now you're going to get in that room and your going to enjoy every moment of what I'm about to do."

I saw Dillion creeping up behind him, he had a knife as well.

"Drop the knife, Rain. Or isn't it Hannah now?"

I put it on the ground. 

Dillion sprung into action and sliced his leg in the tendon of his ankle, making Jasper fall and drop the gun as it spiraled across the floor. Dillion dashed for the gun. 

"Make one move you sleazy son of a bitch and I'll blow your fucking brains out and slit your throat." I hadn't seen this side of Dillion before....

"Oh wow like you really have the balls to shoot me kid." 

Dillion shot him in the leg just below the knee.

Jasper screamed in agony and smiled, manically 

"Oh really? Hmm seems like I do have the balls. Say it again you fucking pig."

Jasper lied there holding his knee for 10 minutes until the cops showed up and took him back to jail. 

Some how, some way I felt like this wasn't the last time this was going to happen. People like him don't just give up.

People like me never let their gaurd down either.....
