*Carters POV*
"Dude, how on earth did you find her?" Nash asked me.
"We were on a plane and I sat next to her. We got to talking, and yeah."
"You're so lucky."
"Do you have a crush on her?!" I asked in shock.
He didn't answer, he just puffed his cheeks out.
"Nash!"
"Okay! Yes!"
I didn't know what to say. Nash was my best friend and he had a crush on my girlfriend. As long as he didn't steal her, I was okay.
*Isabelle's POV*
"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" I yelled as I walked into the house.
No answer.
"Mom? Dad?"
Still nothing.
"Where the hell are they?" I asked myself.
"Luke? Are you here?"
No answer. I was starting to get scared. What was happening? I picked up my phone and I had 17 missed calls. All from mom and dad. I called mom back.
"Isabelle Christine!" She yelled.
Whenever my mom used my middle name, I was usually in trouble.
"What?!" I asked.
"Where have you been? Dad and I have been calling you!"
"Yeah I noticed... I was at a movie with Carter and Nash."
"We're at the hospital. Luke was playing with his soccer ball and it went in the middle of the street, he got it and a car came out of nowhere. He got hit. Us and the doctors think it was a drunk."
I started crying.
"I'm on my way."
I hung up the phone and put it in my pocket. I was about to go, but I realized I didn't have a car. I ran across the street to Carters and knocked on the door. By then, I was crying like crazy. He answered.
"Isabelle! What's wrong!?"
"It's Luke! He was hit by a car and he is in the hospital. I need you to take me!"
Carter pulled me in for a hug, but I pushed him away.
"We'll hug later! I need to get to the hospital!"
I felt bad for that, I loved his hugs. He would've made me feel somewhat better.
"Okay, the cars unlocked. Just go wait there and I'll be there."
"Okay." I said while sniffling.
I went to his car, and sat in the passenger seat. I waited about 2 minutes and Carter and Nash came running out. Carter got in fast, he started the car, put his seatbelt on, and he grabbed my hand. I started crying again.
"It'll be okay, Izz." Carter said.
"How do you know??" I said crying harder.
"I-I guess I don't."
We all went to the hospital in silence. I texted my mom:
"What room?"
"Floor 5 room 157."
"Okay, I'll be there in 20 seconds."
Carter, Nash and I went to the elevator and went to the 5th floor and room 157. Carter and I held hands the whole way there, not letting go of each other for a second. We finally got on the floor, and we got to the room. I saw my little Luke laying there, asleep. With bruises all over, and IV's in his arm.I went over beside his bed and held his hand and kissed it.
"I love you Luke." I said.
Mom came over and rubbed my back. Carter came and sat beside me on his knees. He put his hand on my thigh and I put my other hand over his. I got up and sat on the chair, letting go of Luke's hand.
"How bad are the injuries?" I asked.
"We're not sure, but the doctor says Luke will be in the hospital for a week at the most."
I cried again, Carter came over and sat on the chair right beside me, wiping the tears off my face. He kissed my cheek. The doctor came in. I immediately looked up at him.
"What?! What's gonna happen?!" I asked him.
"Calm down." Carter whispered to me.
"He does have bad injuries. To be honest, he is lucky to be alive."
"So what's going to happen to him?" I asked.
"He will have to stay in here for a week..."
The doctor started saying everything that's gonna happen, and what medication he'll be on. I couldn't help but smile at the fact he'll be okay.
"There's a smile." Carter said while looking straight into my eyes.
"I'll be right back." I said.
I went out into the hall and called Zoe to tell her about Luke. She started crying as well. I don't know why, she always seemed to not like Luke.
Then again, so did I. But deep down, I loved him with all my heart.
