Paper Airplanes {Corey Haim}

Ten~Only Girl

My father sat at the end of my bed. "What happened?", he asked. It was a mix of concern and anger in his tone.

"I went to talk to John--"

"Sarah Jane, you know he's dangerous", my father interrupted.

No! Really?!

"And we got into a argument and, well...one thing led to...a slap in the face, and so forth.", I said.

Corey was pacing, and making me dizzy as he did so. "I'll kill him! Really, I will", Corey said.

"Calm down Lucas.", I said.

I turned back to my father.

"He's killing Edward. I know it! He caused this, and Heather was in on it.", I said.

"I know. She's been AWOL and John...I guess the father of the year award was out of the question from day 1.", he said.

"Are we just gonna sit here? He could have killed SJ! He beat her!", Corey said.

"Cor."

He sighed, he put his hands on his hips and nodded. "What...can we do?", he asked, calm now.

"He threatened me. Daddy, he isnt a joke, he's got nothing to lose, he could do something dangerous.", I said.

He agreed. Corey sat down. "Call the cops.", Corey suggested.

"We could. He can't do anything from behind bars.", my father said.

I nodded. "Go. Make it happen.", I said.

...
6:17pm
Corey and I laid in the hospital bed, he had spent all day with me, well, since I got stuck there. I was supposed to stay a day or so more.

Everybody else had left or was with Edward. It was just Corey and me. Watching some tv show.

"Why do you put blush on your face for color when you could get punched in the face? The color is a lot brighter.", Corey joked.

"Are you picking on my face?"

"No! You have a very nice face, beautiful. I happen to love your face.", he said.

"Well, your face is very nice, too.", I complimented.

"In fact", he began, "I like your face so much I want you to move in with me. So...will you?"

I smiled.

"I'd love that."

I smiled up at him, and he smiled at me.

"Can I ask you a question?", I asked.

"Hit me"

"Why's your mouth always open?"

He laughed lightly.

"Probably because I'm always with you.", he said, he was joking I think.

"Aww! You love me?"

He did that smile thing where he looked like Elvis.

"I love you."

"But", he began, "I'm serious about sharing a place."

I nodded. "Me too."

"Baby, if your dream is forty acres and a house, porch going all the way around I'll  buy it.
Or if you'd rather see city lights and a crowd I'll  move you uptown. It don't matter to me. I can see me livin' anywhere with you, so till the sky falls, you're the only girl I wanna love.
Wanna stare into your green eyes every morning, and night. I want to live with you.", he said.
