15. Home Sweet Home

Aerin Creer

Sitting in the lobby of the hospital my leg bounced up and down as I was so scared about the results of what happened to Justise.

He was never one to drink or do drugs so I have no idea what he would have done wild he was out here. Shaking my head, because I felt as if it was my fault I was so scared.

"Ms Creer?" The doctor came over to me as I got up quickly and walked to him.

"Yes that's me."

"Okay so Justise is... fine for now, but what he did was really severe and could have ended his life."

"Can I see him?" I asked ignoring all of that.

"Yes." The doctor sighed as I got up and followed him to where the room was.

"He's resting right now so let me just tell you what happen."

"He had alcohol poisoning, overdosed on crack and also was smoking weed so he needs to stay here for a week until we can make sure it is safe for him to go back to America."

"But we have school next week." I told him as I realized we've been here for two months now and school started next week and we haven't even got any furniture.

Now we are having a baby and I don't even know how we are going to deal with all of this.

"Ma'am I get that but if we send him back to America they are going to put him in rehab we are trying to keep him from going through all of that so just listen to me you can go back to America and do whatever and then we will give you a call when he's able to leave and come back to America." He told me.

"Okay." I sighed as walked into the room, covering my mouth; seeing all the tubes and needles in his vains and nose.

"Oh my gosh." I whispered as I covered my mouth.

"Come here." He grumbled lowly.

I stood there for a few minutes before walking over to him. As I walked towards him he reached his hand out for my stomach and touched it.

Rubbing it for a few minutes before he opened his eyes a little and sat up.

"Aerin I'm sorry." He said with his head down.

"Did you..." I trailed off.

"Did I what?" He asked me.

"Have sex with her."

"Who is her?" He asked.

"The girl at the restaurant."

"What girl? I went to the beach and found a plug I bought some crack, and then went to the liquor store and came back to the room that was it so what are you talking about."

"I was at this restaurant with this guy and I saw you with this light skin girl."

"No."

"So who was it then Justise." I crossed my arms over my chest.

"Aerin I don't know, I'm telling you the truth." He said as he looked in my eyes and I could tell he was telling the truth.

"That's weird then." I said as I sat down and tapped my lip.

"Set up." Justise mumbled.

"Huh?" I asked him.

"Set up, it's a set up they set us up."

"Who?" I asked him.

"When I went to buy the crack I asked him was it just a little bit and he told me that the little bag didn't do much and gave me three more and told me to take three to achieve a high or it wouldn't work so I did and overdose. Now it makes sense why I bought them four bottles and that girl followed me up the room." He said as he shook his head.
