You're such a Jackass (Chris Pontius love story

Chapter 40

Joey's POV

I woke up in a dark room that was unfamiliar to me. Slowly I stood and groaned in pain as I fell to the floor. My side was throbbing ferociously and my head ached. A heard a shuffle and the light was thrown on. When I looked up Chris was staring at me with wide eyes and a worried face. "Chris it hurts so bad" I cried gripping onto my side. "I know baby" he said he put me back in bed. There was an ivy attached to my arm and they were beat red with multiple scrapes. My whole body burned and my head was pounding. Every time I blinked it felt like I was being knocked on the head with a hammer. "I'll get a doctor" he said walking towards the door. "No just stay with me" I said looking at him. He nodded and sat down next to my bed. "Do you remember what happened?" he asked motioning to my body. Slowly I nodded and everything came rushing back to me. "Yah I remember. I was driving and this guy kept following me and once I thought he was gone there I was and my car was doing cartwheels through the street. Then I blacked out. I heard some things there was a woman crying frantically and before that someone leaned down and whispered into my ear. He said "No one leaves me unless I get rid of them and then it felt like I was sleeping" I explained to him. "I swear I could kill the bastard" Chris said looking angry. He relaxed at the touch of my hand on his. "I love you" I said quietly. He smiled at me widely "Not half as much as I love you" he said leaning over and kissing me likely making sure he didn't hurt me. "I should go and tell everyone you're up and talking" he said before walking out. I lifted up my dress to see a large gash that was stitched up. I gasped when I saw it and lightly touched the wound with my fingers. I was most upset because I knew it was going to scar. So much for the perfect body. There was a handy little mirror on the table next to my bed and I wrapped my hand around it bringing it up to my face. Tears came to my eyes when I saw the damage. There was a large cut going across my forehead and I had a black eye. There were scraped all over and a deeper one on my upper lip. The scratches were red and inflamed. They felt like they were on fire when my salty tears touched them. I sucked in my tears and wiped away the remaining ones that were on my face. The door opened and in walked everyone and when I say everyone I mean everyone along with a doctor. Smiles broke out upon their faces, but none came to hug me and I knew why. They were afraid to hurt me. "Come on you guys I'm not a glass vase" I said smiling. My mom yelped with happiness and ran over to me an pulling me into a tight hug. I winced but didn't let got of her. She pulled away and she was crying. She ran fingers along my face gently and kissed my forehead. My dad came over and kissed me a million times all over the face telling me how much he loved me. I grinned and said it back to him. I got multiple hugs from everyone and Katy cried just like she did when her boyfriend broke up with, like a dying calf. Bam cried too, but it was a silent cry. "Ok so since everyone's got that in its time to tell Joey the damage" the doctor said. "Well doc it's all pretty visible" I laughed. He grinned and sad smile and shook his head. "Sweetie there's a bit more." he told me. "Go on" I said giving the thumbs up. "Well Joey some of your internal organs were damaged in the crash. That's including some of those baby making gears and I'm sorry to say that it is very unlikely that you'll be able to have children" he told me. I felt my heart break in two. The tears fell down my face and I didn't care how badly they burned. Sure I didn't want a baby now, but one day I planned on having a few kids. What if Chris left me because I couldn't have any kids?!? What if he didn't want damaged merchandise?! I felt terrible now that I couldn't have kids. I held my head and cried like I never have cried before. Chris held me in his arms and said reassuring things to me. At some point the doctor had left and the rest just watched. I hated them seeing me this way, but I couldn't help it. My heart was broken and I didn't know how to fix it.
