You saved my life *Dalton Rapattoni*

Chapter 30

I kept shaking Dalton, trying to wake him up, but it was no use. He was knocked out cold."Theodora, please move." Cole said, nudging me out of the way. I sat back and watched as Cole checked Dalton. I felt hands grab me from behind. I swung my head faster than I ever have ever before to see Emily looking down at me with worried eyes. "Oh my god, Are you ok? I was so nervous when I heard Dean come in. I'm so sorry that I didn't try to save you. I was just to....." Emily cried, but i interrupted her. "It's fine. I'm ok, but I don't know about Dalton." I said, with more tears falling. "I'm sure he only got knocked out." Emily said, only to comfort me. Just then the police burst into the back yard. They took Dean away and asked Dana, Gabe and Will questions. The medics had to push Cole away from Dalton. 2 medics came over to me and helped me onto a stretch bed.They carried me into a ambulance and started doing all kinds of tests on me. As they we're doing this I laid there quietly. My head hurt from huge migraines and I wasn't able to focus on anything. Soon, the pain became to excruciating and I passed out. The last thing I saw was the nurses rushing around the ambulance. Before I passed out they stuck me with a needle. Even though I felt a huge amount of pain I didn't react t it at all. I was completely motionless.

I woke up in the hospital with a bunch of wires stuck to my forehead. The room I was in was completely empty, no nurses to be seen. I looked to the side of the bed where I found a Nurse's call button. I reached for the button but, stopped almost right away. Pain shot through the inner part of me elbow. I looked down to see a IV stuck in my skin. I flopped my head back down on the pillow and sighed. "Isn't this going to be fun?" I sarcastically whispered to myself. I tried to reach for it with my other hand, which luckily had no IV. It was a struggle, but I grabbed the button and pressed it. A few seconds later a nurse came in with a warm smile on her face. "Oh, so it seems you finally woke up!" She said in a delightful tone. I smiled slightly. "How long was I asleep?" I asked. "About a day and a half. We had to start feeding you through the IV." She explained. "A day and a half?!?!" I said, gobsmacked. "Yes. We we're scared you weren't going to wake up." She admitted. "What it actually wrong with me?" I asked. "Well, you are know to have anxiety attacks when you realize danger. In the situation you were just in you had a incredibly huge anxiety attack that caused your brain to go all crazy. You're alright now though." She answered me.

I closed my eyes, remembering that day. All the fear that rushed through my body. I remembered how Dalton tried to protect me with his life. How he did it because he loved me. Then, I remembered right before I was taken to the ambulance, Dalton laid on the ground unconscious. "Is Dalton ok?" I blurted out. "Who?" The nurse said. "Dalton, Dalton Rapattoni. He was there with me when I had this anxiety attack. He was unconscious last time I saw him." I responded. "Ok, well I'll go look. I'll be back in a few minutes. Alright?" She said. "Ok, Thank you" I said. She nodded and left the room. I sat up on the bed and examined the room. Right in front of my bed was a TV and right next to the TV was a toilet and a sink, with a curtain for privacy. Next to my bed was a night table that had my cell phone,the hospital's phone, and a lamp. I reached over for my cell phone and turned it on. The time appeared on the screen, it was 1:30 P.M. The only other thing appeared was tweets saying that they're praying for me and all that. I pulled up twitter and said, Don't worry guys, I'm wide awake. I should be fine. After I did that I locked my phone and laid it back down on the night table.

About 15 minutes later, the nurse came back in. "Hi! I'm back! And I got the information about the boy you were asking about. He's on the same floor, just farther down the hallway and he's in good health. We're just watching over him before we know he's totally healthy. And lastly, Your Mother would like to call you so just listen for that phone to ring. Alright?" She smiled pointing at the phone on the night table, next to the lamp. "Ok, just one more thing. Is there any chance that the boy and I can see each other...?" I asked. "Umm I'll see." She said leaving the room, again. I turned my head to the phone and stared at it. Waiting for it to ring. It rang and I answered it. "Hello?" I said. "Oh my god! Theodora! I'm so happy to hear you re awake!." She cried into the phone. I chuckled. "I'm happy I'm awake too.Just wish i didn't have all these freaking IVs in me." I grunted. "Haha, Don''t worry they'll probably take them out when you start eating again." She reassured me "I hope you're correct because I barely bend my arm or move my hand." I complained. "Awe, I'm sorry honey." She apologized for nothing. "No, I'll be fine." I replied. "So, heard anything about Dalton?" She asked. "Um, yes, actually! They said he's in good health. They're just keeping him until he's totally healthy." I explained. "Oh, that's wonderful! You realize I still have to meet him right?" She reminded me. "Yes, mom." I sighed. "Well, if this is the boy you love, I think I should me him." She laughed. "Yea, I know, but you better not embarrass me." I said, remembering past guys. "Oh come on! How am I going to embarrass you?" My mom asked. "Well, The last good guy I let you meet, you made him grossed out by telling him all about my disgusting babyhood. He then broke up with me a week later." I pointed out.

"Then that tells me that guy didn't actually love you." She boasted. "No babyhood stories or pictures. You hear me?" I demanded. "Fine, but I do still have childhood stories and pictures!" She sang into the phone. "No! No! No stories or pictures from the past! Alright?" I almost yelled into the phone. "Alright, jeez. No stuff from your younger years." She said. "No, you have to understand. Repeat what I just said back to me." I scolded. "No stories or pictures from the past." She sighed. "Thank you! And maybe you can meet him after I get out of the hospital because I know for sure he'll be out before me and you are not meeting him without me there." I said. "Ok, that sounds good. I'll let you go so can get some rest, ok hun?" She agreed. "Ok bye, love you." I said. "Love you too get better." We both hung up. I kept my hand on the phone, stopped in motion because I remembering my old boyfriends. I never really had a lot, boys always thought I was quite odd. I'd say I've had only 2 good boyfriends before Dalton. One my Mother chased off by creeping him out with my babyhood stories and the other would forget every single anniversary we had. Dalton though, I know he wouldn't break up with me because of my strange childhood or forget any of our anniversaries. Not like we have any yet, though.
