Complicated Love

Ch.4: Goodbye Hospital and Hello Reality

I didn't notice the two police officers standing outside the door as he got to the door. I guessed I looked sad because Mason whispered in my ear

"Cheer Up he's gone." I faked a smile then quickly let it fade because it hurt.

I watched as everyone was talking and saying hi to the other visitors. The room got quiet as a police officer walked in. He asked everyone to exit while he talked to me and told them they could come back in when he left out. Everyone started to exit the room. When the lst person walked out and shut the door he started talking.

"Derek is in jail for the next 5 years. He is only allowed to see you once a week and there will always be an officer with him to make sure he doesn't hurt you while he is visiting you. If he ever touches you in a way the officer or officers find threatening, he will leave immediately. So you basically won't have to worry."

I smiled a little then quickly let it fade again.

It really hurt when I smiled. The officer got out of his chair and walked out the door. The nurse walked in and told me I would be leaving today. When she walked out everyone walked back in. I saw 2 or 3 people had left and went home. I told everyone I would be leaving today.

I was super happy about leaving today. That meant no more nasty hospital food. In my mind it was Good Bye hospital food and Hello fast food. People started to leave one by one. When everyone was gone and Mason was the last one there. He stayed in the room while I went to the bathroom to change. When I walked out he said

"You really want to wear that, its pretty chilly outside." Mason stated.

I got my pants out of my backpack and went to the bathroom to slip them on. I walked out the bathroom and Mason said that's better. I wanted to smile but didn't.

We walked to the front desk and checked out. The nurse said that I couldn't drive for a whole week. When we got to Mason's car, he offered to give me a lift to school if I needed one.

"Sure." I said.

He smiled and we got into his car. The ride home was silent. When we got to my house, I told him thanked him and said bye.

"Wait your not going to let me come in?"

"You didn't ask." I said.

"May I come in?" he asked.

"Sure Mason come in." I said with a smile and He smiled and laughed a little.

I opened the door to my house and walked in. I ran up the stairs to my room to change into some shorts. It warmed up a lot on the ride here. Which to us was a good thing.

Me and Mason decided to take a walk on the beach again. When we arrived at the beach a few minutes later, I saw the one person I did not want to see at all. It was Makayla.

Me and Mason walked toward the water and let it crash around our ankles. Right in the middle of our conversation Makayla walked up to us.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't little miss Angela."

I stopped dead in my tracks. I could feel the blood rising in my face. I didn't feel like dealing with Makayla's shit right now.

"What do you want Makayla?" I asked.

"To simply know what happened to your face."

"That's none of your business." I said.

"It is my business and I demand you to tell me."

"Well I'm not."

I rolled my eyes and just stood there with my face getting hotter and hotter. I couldn't stand it anymore. I noticed Makayla had on a brand new sun dress that was made by Gucci. It was really pretty. I liked it.

"Fine you don't have to tell me then."

"Ya. I know I don't." I said and rolled my eyes.

"Your a bitch." She said.

"No I'm not."

"Yes you are."

"How about I show you one."

I walked toward her and Mason grabbed me. He held me to keep me from beating her ass. She walked up to me.

"You better watch it." I said

"And if I don't?"

"I'll do this and show you a bitch while I'm at it."

I pushed her and watched as she loss her balance and fell in the water and ruined her dress.

"AAHHHH!!" She screamed as she fell in the water.

I looked at her and gave her a smirk.

"That's what a bitch does." I said.

Me and Mason walked down the beach a little more and didn't look back at her.
