Bound to You (Literally)

Chapter 28

Hey really sorry for the late update but I have A LOT of exams going on at the moment, so I am focussing on revision, but I have written this chapter in the spare time that I get. I finish my exams on the 23rd of June, and I am holiday straight after that, so there might be a bit of a wait for the next chapter.

So I hope that this chapter will be able to tide you over.

Enjoy :)

Chapter 28

"MY BABY!" My mum rushes into the room and launches herself at me and hugs the life out of me. I wince as I wrap my arms around her as it nudges on the needles that are inside of me that I tried to rip out. My mum's tears arm absorbed by my hospital gown, and the sound of her sobs causes tears to form in my eyes as I bury my face in her shoulder.

I am not shocked by my mum's reaction; it is not like she has ever treated me badly, she loves me because I am her child it's just the way that I was when I was brought up I preferred to be in my own company rather than go shopping with my mum, and my family seemed quite happy with that arrangement and I guess I was as well. But I am happy to have my mum here with me at this time even though we have never been that close. 

"What's wrong with her?" My dad all but growls at the nurse who is fixing my IV line, causing her to jump and scurry out saying she is going to get the doctor to come in. 

"Sweetie, are you ok?" My dad sits next to me and holds my hand as my mum pulls away and settles next to me on the bed, while my dad sits next to me in the big chair next to the bed. My brother Ethan takes a seat on the other side of my bed and pinches my bingo wings under my arm. 

"AH! You little rat!" I growl at him. 

"Snot face!" I don't take offence because I see the smile on his face and I can't help my own smile from forming. "You just wanted the attention didn't you? So what did you do to get in here?" He taunts me and I narrow my eyes at him. 

"I know you are but what am I?" I know it doesn't make any sense what I say but it annoys him so much everytime that I say it. 

"OH MY GOD! Shut up!" I can't help but start giggling at him. When I stop a smile stays on my face at the thought of the normalcy of this situation because of how me and Ethan are arguing. But that will change when they find out what is happening to me. 

And that thought completely wipes the smile off from my face. 

"How are you feeling?" My mum asks me. 

"Ok I guess." I do not want to be the one to tell them that I have a growth on my head that is going to kill me; I don't want to deal with them crying on me, because I know they're my family but since I'm the one that's about to die I shouldn't have to do the dirty work. 

"What happened?" 

"I don't know I blacked out." 

"Hello, I am Lianna's doctor. Can I please speak to you outside?" I breathe a sigh of relief that the interrogation is over, and someone else is going to get questioned.

"Of course." Both of my parents agree and stand up and follow my doctor out of the door.

"So what did theysay is wrong with you?" Ethan asks tugging on my IV line. 

"You are an annoying little fucker, you know that right?" I say as I slap his hand away.

"I have worked very hard on it, so thank you for the compliment."

"Hobbit." I mutter as I turn my head away from him and look at the blank TV screen, which looks like a the ones in the films where a face appears of a bald man saying he has a mission for them.
