Change Me •Ethan Dolan•

Six

I woke up dreading today. Its the day I get discharged from the hospital, but I go straight to another one, but a mental one. But now that I think of it, I dread everyday, so its just another day for me, yay. "Are you ready darling?" Heather asked me as she removed all the wires and tubes and whatever else was attached to me. "Honestly, not one bit." I sigh, "I tried, im really sorry." She apologized, "No its okay, maybe it will help. Maybe I'll make psychopath friends." I rolled my eyes and did sarcastic jazz hands. "I promise you I will visit you everyday. And since Im a nurse I can probably get you out of there a few hours everyday..." She says nudging my shoulder and winking at me, I smiled "Really?" I asked, "Of course! And while were there we can talk about your little boy toy, uh whats his name.....Edward?" She asked, I laughed "Well you got the E right, Ethan." I smiled, "Oh! We can talk about him." She wiggled her eyebrows causing me to laugh. Jack bursted into the room out of breath, along with Ethan and Grayson, "I forgot you were getting discharged today, in like twenty minutes." He breathed, "You can actually go now if you want, so you guys have some extra time together before she has to go to the mental hospital at one." Heather added in, "Really?!" I say excitedly, "Yea I finished all of your stuff, go girl!" She smiled, "Thank you so much Miss Heather!" I smiled then ran to her and gave her a hug. I grabbed my phone from the stand beside my bed, "See you tomorrow Miss Heather!" I call out to her, "Bye Lea!" She answered back. I walked out with Jack, Grayson, and Ethan. I catch a slight glimpse of Ethan and Jack lip talking and then both of them nodding, but not a good enough of a look to know what they were saying. "Youre actually coming with me for right now cause Jack and Grayson have to go to work." Ethan smiled at me, I frowned, "Jack I thought we were supposed to spend time together before I go away for three months." I say with tears starting to form in my eyes, "I will I promise and so will Grayson just go with Ethan right now please we have most of the day, its eight right now, we have until one." He hugs me and walks the opposite way as us. I just stood there and watched him walk away. "Here lets go." Ethan quietly says to me, I nod and follow him to his car and got in the passenger side. He got in the drivers seat and looked at me, "What." I said, "You." He smiled then turned the car on and started driving. "Where are we going?" I asked him, "That is a surprise." He replied not taking his eyes off of the road, "Oh." I replied, I got my phone then put my earbuds in my ears and put my Spotify playlist on shuffle, Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol came on. I stared out the window, not recognizing where I am, but I didnt care. I closed my eyes and listened to the song, wishing I could just go home, and not some stupid hospital. The songs changed as I thought about the different ways this day could go, You Found Me by The Fray is currently playing, I felt a light pressure on my hand, I look over to see Ethan is now holding my hand. Once he realize that I noticed he looked over to me and smiled.

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

The song rang in my ears as I ran through the last couple of days in my head, and how I ended up like this. Its amazing how when something bad happens it brings people together. Maybe this was supposed to happen, Me almost dying, Ethan being there when he was, and me being sent away for three months. "Whats on your mind?" Ethan asks as he turned the car onto a dirt road. "Everything." I sigh, "And whats that?" He asks me again, "The past couple of days, you, and the next three months." I truthfully say. "Dont worry about the next three months, they will go by like nothing if you find something you enjoy. I'll visit you I promise, but the time nobody's there you have to find something." He sighed and we eventually pulled up to what was a completely empty field full of sunflowers. "Ethan what are we doing here?" I asked, confused as of why we are in the middle of nowhere, "Spending time before you have to go away for three months." He smirked then got out of the car, I gave him an odd look and slowly got out of the car, "Here." Ethan says reaching his hand out for me to take. I smiled and intertwine our hands, we walked through the endless flowers until Ethan suddenly stopped, "Close your eyes." He says, "Youre not going to murder me are you?" I laugh, and he just rolled his eyes, "Totally." He sarcastically replied, I closed my eyes and waited for him to guide me or leave me there I dont know, "And to make sure you dont peek." He says and I felt his hand leave mine, but I soon felt it over my eyes, and his other arm was wrapped around my waist as he stood behind me. "Walk straight ahead." He told me and we both walked in sync. "Okay stop." He ordered, and I stopped as he told me to. "Okay when I get to three, open your eyes." He said taking his hands off of me, "1..." he said and I sighed nervously, "2....." He continued, "3!" He yelled a little causing me to wince, but I opened my eyes and I immediately became speechless. We stood in the middle of the field, where a small circle was cleared of sunflowers, but we were also surrounded by them. There were small lights tangled in the sunflowers that were around us, and a blanket laid out in the middle of the circle with a basket on it. Candles outlined the blanket, and a small speaker sat next to the little basket. "When did you set this all up?" I asked Ethan with wide eyes, "Like right before we came and got you from the hospital." He smiled, I didnt say anything else, but I ran over to him and tackled him in a hug, "Youre the best." I say into his chest causing me to be muffled a little bit. "And we can consider this our first official date." He proudly said, making me smile as he gave me a quick kiss on the forehead.
