I like the bad boy... - COMPLETED -

Chapter 33

"Look at them, they're so cute together!" comes a female voice when I start to wake up.

"That might be but she's still my sister and he's your big brother and they're not allowed to do this much PDA!" comes a male voice that can't belong to anyone other than Aiden.

"Oh, shush. You're just mad they didn't get you when she woke up." The female voice I now recognize as Tasha reacts.

"That's because she's my sister and she died. She died, Nat. I nearly lost my twin sister and they didn't bother to tell me she woke up." I hear Aiden's voice break when he says the words and that's the point where I answer.

"Not you too. Come on, I can't handle another guy I love cry over me. It took everything in me to get this one to calm down not you too, Aiden." I tell him, my voice croaky and my eyes opening very slowly.

"Emma? Oh, thank god. You're really awake!" Aiden hurries over to me and kind of hugs me which happens kind of awkward since I'm still lying on Lucas who's waking up because off all the commotion.

Knock Knock

"I see everybody's aware of you waking up. I have good news for you, you get to go home. You have to be careful not to open the stiches on your neck or head but otherwise you're going to be fine. You have to take these pills for your concussion but other than that, you're good to go. I'll get your papers and then you can leave." Doctor Lawrence says.

He's a man of few words without too much worrying and stuff so I'm happy he's my doctor because I can go home! He comes back a couple of minutes later with my papers and they get me of all the machinery.

Luckily Tasha was smart enough to bring me a bag of clothes for when I could go home so I can change in something fresh. As I walk in the little bathroom I can't help but gasp. I knew there would be marks from where Drew hit me but I didn't think it would be this bad.

"Princess, are you okay in there?" Lucas concerned voice comes through the door. I know I should answer him but I can only hiss in pain when I touch the blue mark on my cheek when I touch it.

"Princess, I'm coming in, okay?" Lucas says but before he can I hear Aiden stop him.

"No, you're not what if she's naked?" Aiden tells Lucas. What a joke! It's not as if Lucas hasn't seen me naked before.

"Look, Aiden I know you're not happy about it but I've seen your sister naked before she is my girlfriend and if you hadn't noticed she hasn't reacted to anything we've said so I'm going in there to make sure she's okay!" With those words out of Lucas mouth the door opens and he steps inside the tiny bathroom.

"I'm hideous." I whisper looking at Lucas through the mirror. It's the truth. I've got multiple bruises on my face which makes it swollen and blue everywhere. I've got a bandage around the top part of my head and there's an ugly red mark where Drew cut me.

"No, princess you're not. Babe, you could never be hideous. To me you'll always be my beautiful girlfriend no matter what. Give it some time and it will heal." Lucas words help but I'm not convinced especially not when I undress and see all the bruises I got from fighting Drew.

Those are the last straw and I collapse to the ground crying. I know it's really vain of me to cry over bruises and cuts when I should be happy I'm alive but I've only just become feeling beautiful thanks to Lucas and now I look like one huge walking bruise.

Lucas is immediately by my side pulling me to him and holding me. He doesn't say anything because he knows I have to let it all out now. It's then I realise that I'm not only crying because of how I look but because of everything that happened and everything that could have happened. What if I didn't fight back like I did or if Lucas wasn't in time to stop Drew?
