Dangerous Love

He really loves you

Eleanor's pov:
        Being in Zack's arms made me feel safe for some reason. "Eleanor Winters, will you do the honors of going out with me?" Zack asked, getting on one knee, acting like he was proposing. "Yes I will." I giggled. I couldn't contain the smile plastered on my lips, and neither could he. "Hello, I'm nurse James, and I'm here to ask you a few questions." Nurse James walked into the room, ruining the moment. "Do you have any headaches right now?" Nurse James asked. "No." I replied. And it went on like that for a while, until he had retained all the information that he needed, and left. "So where's my Aunt?" I asked. "I don't know. As soon as the hospital called me, I came to see you." Zack responded. "Can you go and ask someone for me, please?" I asked, giving him the puppy-dog eyes. "Fine." Zack sighed in defeat. "Yes! Thank you!" I responded as he left the room.

A short while later, Zack came back with a doctor. "So this young fella said that you wanted to know about your Aunt and the rest of the people in the vehicle. Is that true?" the doctor asked me. "Yeah, are they ok?" I replied, hoping that they are. "Well, your Aunt is in surgery, and the rest are sleeping." the doctor responded, looking at his clipboard. "Ok. Have you guys contacted my Dad?" I asked. "Yes, and him and your step-mom should be here tomorrow afternoon. Is there anything else that you'd like to know?" the doctor asked. "When will I be able to leave?" I questioned him. "Well, with your broken arm and leg, and all your cuts, you should be able to leave in a few weeks, after we do a few tests on you to make sure that you're really ok to leave." the doctor answered as he got up and left. "I'm going to go call everybody else. I'll be right back." Zack explained, shutting the door behind him. My eyelids started feeling heavy, and before I knew it, they completely shut.

5 weeks later:
"Hi Zack!" I smiled, as I opened the front door. "Hey princess!" Zack responded, kissing my forehead. "DINNER'S READY!!" Ifangeline called out from the kitchen, as my Dad set up the table. As soon as we washed up, Ifangline set an envelope out in front of me. When I opened it, it said:
"Dear Eleanor,
     Over the years, I have gotten to know and love you. I was saving this for your birthday, but now's a better time. I would love to adopt you.
     - Ifangeline"
"Ifangeline, I-I mean Mom, I-I don't know what to say! Thank you!" I said, hugging her. "Let's eat." Mom said as we pulled apart.

          "TOUCHDOWN SEAHAWKS!!" My Dad yelled, as both him and Zack stood up in excitement. I laughed as the popcorn went flying everywhere, because my Dad accidentally hit the popcorn bowl. "Oh shoot. Sorry hun!" Dad yelled, his and Zack's eyes glued to the tv. Suddenly, the phone rang. "Hunny, it's for you!" My Mom told my Dad. As he grabbed the phone from my Mom's hand, he got up and left the room. "What was that about?" I asked. "Oh, it was one of the security guards. He said something about someone demanding to see your father." Mom explained. "Huh. Weird." Zack replied, still watching the game. "Alright, looks like I'm heading to the club. You guys wanna come with?" Dad asked. "Uh, no thanks. Remember what happened last time I was around drunk people? Yeah, that ain't happening again." I refused. "Ok, what about the rest of you?" Dad asked. "I'll go." Mom replied, getting up. "Actually, I have to pee real quick. I'll be right back." Zack announced, leaving the room. "You know, that boy really loves you." Dad said, sitting next to me. "How do you know that?" I asked. "Because he looks at you the same way I look at your mother." Dad explained, kissing the top of my forehead and leaving with Mom.
