Hartley's P.O.V
"I'm supposed to be in the hospital Hartley Aurora McCraw and not you" my mother scolded gently as she sat beside me in the hospital room that I was put in. I sighed as I could barely open my eyes to look at her, it hurt too much.
"M-mom" I said huskily, my voice sounding like I was in thirst for water, like I was practically dying in the Sahara desert and right now I felt like I was, she must have gotten the hint because I felt a circularly object against my lips and I figured it was a straw so I wrapped my lips around the top and sucked until cool water entered my mouth and I sighed as I took a few more sips before huffing back down on my bed, wincing at the pain that came.
"What were you thinking?" she asked me worriedly and I sighed as I felt a great amount of guilt within me for making her worry, I didn't mean to, I just thought everything was going to go smoothly.
"I-I wasn't ma. I wasn't thinking, I completely forgot all about my suspicious about Matt and just went along with it, I was so stupid" I finished saying as it left me somewhat breathless, she sighed before she held my hand and I looked at her, I looked at her with all my love as she looked back at me, "I thought I lost you" she said quietly and her eyes had a glossy look to it, shit I thought as I watched she was about to cry, now I really was a dumb ass, my mother, the strongest woman I know is fighting for her life and is diagnosed with leukemia and here I am recklessly doing shit that I didn't think if it would affect her or not.
I swallowed before I softly squeezed her hand a bit more, "I'm sorry ma, please don't cry. I'm alright now. Please don't be stressed out, everything will be alright" I tried reassuring her and it seemed to calm her down but she still looked at me worried and stressed. "I believe you Hartley but promise me, promise me never again" she looked at me seriously and I nodded, "I promise ma, never again" I said truthfully and she nodded before she sat back in the chair.
"Well let me just warn you now, you have a very fiery Holmes out there and I'm not talking about Brad or Lydia" my mom then added and instantly my heart skipped a beat as I thought of who she was referring to.
I was in really deep shit now I thought about what she was going to say as she walked through those doors but then I thought about my mother and was this there first time meeting in front of me? and why did that make me nervous?. Just as I was about to respond to my mother, those doors opened and I gasped as my name was shouted, her figure coming around the corner.
"I'll leave you two alone" My mom whispered to me and I looked at her pleadingly to not leave me with this girl but all she did was chuckle playfully before giving Poppy a small smile and made her way her way out. I gulped as I directed my gaze to the fiery brunette and winced at the hard stone glare she set on me.
"I don't even want to look at you right now" she said after glaring at me for a good whole minute and what she said kinda hurt me well I mean it did hurt me but I shook it off as I looked down at my hands as they played with the woolen blanket that my mom had brought over.
"Then why are you here?" I asked her after a while and I heard her sigh before her heels clicked on the tile floor as she walked closer to me. I thought she would take the seat that my mom was sitting on before but it surprised me when she sat on my bed, close to me as she held my chin in her hand and lifted my face up to look at her.
"Because I find myself immensely attracted to how much of an idiot you are but also the fact that-" she paused as she seemed to be thinking of what to say next, then she sighed before looking me in the eyes before saying, "I was so fucking worried about you and I still am." She finished saying as her eyes gazed down to my lips and I gulped at the words she was saying but also at the way I was feeling when I gazed at her red, plump full lips.
