Dear Miss Vanderwaal,
I'm sorry James came into the hall. I didn't want you to get hurt. I shouldn't have fallen for you so hard Erin. I shouldn't have let you care for me. Because every time it's the same. You let some one through your barrier and they get hurt too.
Love,
Layla

Beep. Beep.
I opened my eyes slightly and I saw that I was lying in a hospital bed. I tried to sit up but my vision started spinning and I felt sick.
"Darling, you're awake!"
I looked to my side to see Erin sitting beside me, eyes red from crying.
"How long have I been asleep for?" I asked.
Her eyes watered.
"Over a week"
What! Over a week?!
She saw my shock and said,
"When James beat you unconscious, I carried you to the Ambulance that the other girls had called for and I haven't left your side." My heart warmed.
"You've been here the whole time?"
She nodded.
"I love you Layla, I couldn't leave you if I tried"
"I love you too" I whispered.
The door opened and a doctor came in.
"I'm glad you're awake Miss Parker" He pulled a chair out to sit the other side of me.
"You can be released tomorrow, as long as you have a week off school and no exercise of any sort, you're condition is still not 100% stable"
I smiled.
"Thank you doc but I don't think I can go home" He looked confused but then Erin cut across.
"You're coming with me" The doctor smiled and whispered in my ear as he left , " You're one lucky girl, this one hasn't even slept, waiting for you to wake up" He closed the door behind him.
"Erin, you need sleep now!" She nodded sheepishly " I know"
So she carefully got up and lay next to me. I inhaled her sweet scent.
"How am I coming with you? It's ileagal remember"
She smirked.
"I told the school about your situation and your father and brother have been arrested. The school has granted me permission to look after you for 2 years, even though you're 18 in 2 days. They thought it would give you enough time to get your life back in track."
I smiled widely, "Thank you so much!"
She laughed , "That's not even the best bit!" I frowned. If that wasn't the best bit, what was?
"We're moving to New York together, tomorrow, I already have packed and unpacked at the new place and I have a new job that I will start there" My jaw literally hit the floor.
"Really?!"
"Really"
God I love this woman.
