chapter 3

I ran right into the street and a Honda Civic struck me in the right hip. I immediately blacked out. 

*Sam's Pov*

She was so drunk and almost fell over with every step. We got out of the bar and suddenly Cara ran out into the street and in a split second she was on the ground. I rushed to her and saw that she had blacked out. I felt for her pulse and she was unconscious.

"Someone call 911! Shes unconscious!" i yelled as i saw someone dial on their phone and began speaking about the accident and where it happened. The people that hit Cara rushed out of the car along with a crowd of people. I lifted her up and brought her to the sidewalk while a major amount of people asked if she was okay or just starred which really bothered me. The police along with two ambulances came a few minutes later. They came and she was put in a stretcher. I came into the ambulance with her.

"How much had she been drinking sir?" the medic asked as they began CPR. After a few try's she was breathing and i could see her stomach move up and down. It lifted a lot of stress off of me for now.

"A lot is all i can say" i replied as a tear rolled down my face. I honestly think i was developing feelings for this girl considering her life could end at this moment. Seeing her being hit by a car and laying in the road not breathing was one of the most terrifying moments of my life.

We got to the hospital and she was hooked up to an IV in a room in the west wing. I watched her as she slept. She actually looked very beautiful even though she was in a hospital gown and she had some scratches here and there. I was glad knowing she was alive and the accident wasn't any worse. 

"We need to take her to get some x-rays, it wont be long." the doctor said as he unlatched the gurney and rolled her out of the room. 

"Sounds good." i happily said hoping she didn't have any broken bones. She really was a sweet girl and as I'm known for only one time hook-ups i think it might end up to be more than that, at least i hoped. About 20 minutes later the doctor rolled her back in.

"Thankfully all she has are some scratches and bruises, but she does have a couple major ones that she'll need to be careful with." he said flipping through the pages of his clip board.

"That's great. When will I be able to take her home?" I asked wanting him to say tonight.

"As soon as she wakes up, and then come let me know you are leaving at the front desk." he replied and then waved his hand and walked out the door. I really hope she wakes up soon so I can at least just talk to her. 

It was around 2 am and she had finally awaken.

*Caras Pov*

My eyes fluttered open and i wasn't in my bed or at the bar, I was in a hospital and Sam was sitting in a chair next to me. I finally brought my self up to a sitting position as he looked up at me and said "Oh your awake. Are you thirsty? Hungry? I can go get you something." 

"I'm fine for right now but you could you please tell me why I am in a hospital bed and in this horrifying gown?" i asked really wanting to know why my body ached so bad.

"Well for starters you were over the top drunk and could barely walk straight, then I had you agree that we should leave. Once we got out of the bar you ran into the street not even caring to look and a car had slammed into you." he explained with his eyes watering and then tears coming out.

"Oh my god I am so sorry, I really am." I said wishing we never even went to a bar and just a nice restaurant. 

"It was actually very terrifying for me sitting in the ambulance with you unconscious." he said looking me right in the eyes, still tears coming out.

"Sam please don't cry. If i could i would have taken back this night for anything." I said as i bursted into tears. He stood up and gave me the biggest and longest hug. He kept telling me everything was going to be alright and i believed him. 

"Do you want to leave?" he asked wiping tears from under his eyes and wiping some from mine.

"Yes, so badly."' I said about to get up but i remembered i still had the gown on so he stood outside while i changed. We went to the front desk, signed out, and then told the doctor. He gave me some pain medication and then Sam called a cab since we both walked to the bar earlier that night.

It was now about 3 am and we had finally arrived at my front door. I gave him a hug and thanked him so much for everything. I could tell he wanted to kiss me but i started to unlock the door and once it was opened i said goodbye and he returned it with a goodbye also.

*Sam's Pov*

She thanked me for everything i did for her tonight and that i was the reason she basically lived. I gave her a big warming hug while i thought about if i should kiss her or not, but when we let go she turned around and started fiddling with her keys trying to find the right one. She then unlocked the door, turned to me and said goodbye so i did the same.

Once i got to my apartment and was finally in my bed all i could think about was kissing her soft lips and if we were going to continue to see each other and talk. I soon forgot i hadnt given her my number.

"Shit" i said to myself in a low voice.

After a few minutes i passed out and awoke to birds chirping the next day.
