Sorry for not updating in so long! I have had a really rough time lately and have had no will to write anything. I barely even got through this but I needed to update something! I'm sorry! :/

Chapter 20

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*

What in the living hell is that infuriating noise?!

I let out a groan as suddenly the blinding light is now irritating me too. I blink slowly, letting my eyes adjust. A white ceiling is all I see followed by a set of tubes hooked up to a machine, which is also hooked up to my arm.

I start to yank at the cords when suddenly a warm harm shoots out and covers mine, stopping me. I gasp and look at the person, letting out a happy squeal when I see that it's Caleb.

"Caleb!" I instantly regret moving though as a sharp pain shoots through my whole body.

"Whoa there, relax love. Don't move too much."  I give him a questioning look and he sighs before speaking.

"You were injured pretty badly. Do you remember any of it?"

I bite my lip and think back, instantly remembering all of the abuse. I nod my head.

"Yes. I remember going over to see my father to get the papers signed and him attacking me. I don't remember everything that happened though."

My mind starts racing as I think of all of the things that could have happened. Caleb nods at me and lets out a relieved but yet worried sigh.

"When I found you, I...I didn't know what to do. You were bleeding so much and it wouldn't stop. When I walked in your father was standing over top of you wiping of a knife. I charged at him and the cops rushed in. The second they saw the situation, they hauled his ass away. They rushed you to the hospital and you've been here since. It's only been a few days but it's felt like forever. I wasn't sure if you were going to make it or not. I about freaked out when I found that note from you. I had no clue what to even think." A tear drops down his cheek and I find myself stretching out my hand and catching it.

I cup his face in my hand and smile at him, reassuring him that I'm okay.

"I'm here now and I'm okay. That's all that matters."  He nods and leans down to kiss me. I smile widely and bring his lips to mine, just letting my lips linger against his as I take in the feeling that I had missed oh so much. I pull away suddenly, panicking.

"Did you get the papers?!" My eyes are wide, freaking out a bit. He laughs a little and nods. I let out a breath of relief.

"Yes, and your father can no longer hurt you. They found his prints instantly on that knife and he has been in the jail for a few days now. They won't fully put him away though until his court case, which is tomorrow. They wanted you to testify against him but I wasn't sure if you would want to or not."

I nod almost instantly, knowing for a fact that I had wanted to. I would do anything to be able to get my dad put away, even if that meant him never getting out. I could live with that and I wouldn't feel bad about it either. He deserves everything that comes to him.

Caleb ends up sitting with me for the next few hours as the Doctor checks me over and gives me more meds. He told me that I am free to leave tonight so luckily I have that.

*Knock knock*

My head shoots over to the door in time to see Caleb's mom walk in holding flowers and smiling. I grin widely and hold my arms out for her slowly. I see a tear escape from the corner of her eye as she throws the flowers at Caleb before running over to me. She grips me tightly and I find myself having a hard time catching my breath.

"Oh, sweetie, thank god you're okay! We were so worried!" She pulls back and grips my face in her hands, smiling ever so lovingly at me. I smile back and shake my head.

"No worries, I'm okay. Still sore but I'm okay." She nods and steps back a little, laughing at Caleb who is now covered in little flower petals. He gives her a stern look and hands what's left of the flowers over to me. I smile at him and turn back to his mom as she begins to speak.

"Everything for tomorrow is all set up, including the adoption information. I talked to the judge and he agreed to bring it up tomorrow and let your father know that he has no choice in the matter. Now, you don't have to speak tomorrow either. It's all up to you. I would understand if you didn't want to."

I shake my head.

"No, I want to. He needs to hear how I feel, and learn that I will happily put him away for the rest of his miserable life. He deserves it all." I snarl to myself as I think of my father. I push all thoughts away though. I don't need to be thinking of all of that right now.

"Okay sweetie. That's fine. Now, I just talked to the doctor to make sure that you will be allowed to go tomorrow and he said that it's fine also. You just have to make sure that we change your dressings every few hours." I nod and lean my head back against the pillow, starting to feel really tired. I let out a yawn and a sigh, finally trying to let myself relax a bit.

I feel really anxious about tomorrow, not sure what to think. I really would rather not have to see my father again, but this needs to be done. At least I get to go home with Caleb tonight. Now that will make me feel 100 times better.

I glance over at him and smile to see that he has his thinking face on, biting his lip while doing so. I grab his hand and squeeze. He looks over at me and smiles widely, giving me a look of nothing but love. I feel my heart skip a beat and a blush covers my face.

While my father may hate me, at least I have somebody now that doesn't. I feel myself falling so in love with Caleb, even if we haven't been together very long. My feelings for him are so strong and it honestly scares me a little bit. I guess only time will tell just how strong these feelings really are. If he is able to stick with me through all of this drama then he truly is amazing and isn't going to desert me. Just that thought alone makes me feel happier than I have ever felt.
