Josh’s POV
“Goodnight x” I sent before going to sleep and I suddenly remembered that I was leaving tomorrow, so I sent another text straight after.
“Oh, and I’m getting let out of this place tomorrow, and we’re flying back to London as soon as possible, so I might be unreachable for a couple of days. I’ll text you when I get there or something, so you have my other number, I don’t know. Bye x”
After I sent the text I immediately regretted it, I mean, who the fuck is able to ramble on about who knows what in a text message?! Me, that’s who!
“Joooooosh!” someone sang in my ear, I swatted them away with my hand and tried to go back to sleep.
“GET UP!” this time there was four people yelling at me “GET UP! GET UP! GET UP!” they chanted as I pulled the pillow from under my head and hid underneath it.
“FUCK OFF!” that shut them up, I thought they were gone until I felt someone gently pull back the collar of my hospital gown, oh fuck! I jumped up, the machines I was connected to detached themselves from me and the heart monitor went wild. I probably looked crazy; I was trying to get the ice away from my back when a doctor rushed in, his worried expression quickly turned to anger when he saw me practically standing on the bed, jumping up and down.
“Mr Franceschi I think you’re ready to leave,” he said through clenched teeth, looking about ready to kill someone.
“I think I am too doctor, I think I’ve been ready to leave for a while now,” I responded smugly, because it’s true, I had been ready to leave about a week ago, but they wanted to keep me in longer to monitor me or some crap. hospitals are so dull!
“Well, I’ll just sign your discharge papers and you can be on your way,” he said while scribbling on a piece of paper, before handing it to me and walking out. I gathered my things and left with the guys, we headed straight for the airport, I was so excited about finally going home, but I couldn’t help but feel some dread at never getting the chance to meet the girl who saved me, Scarlett, I don’t think I ever told her my name either.
We were waiting at the airport for a few hours before our flight and I couldn’t stop thinking about her and how I’d never meet her. I was still thinking about her when it was time to board the plane, and I hadn’t said a word the whole time we were waiting. I think the others noticed, but they didn’t say anything, so I continued not talking. It didn’t bother me whether or not they asked what was wrong, either way I wouldn’t tell them because they would think it stupid, Although Matt and Dan looked pretty down and kind of withdrawn as well. The flight felt longer then it usually does, I tried to sleep but I couldn’t, my mind was too focused on Scarlett, the girl I would never meet.
I am incredibly sorry about how long this has taken me to write. I had exams last week and I was really busy doing anything but study (I watched an entire season of House the day before my Human Bio exam) I got all of my results back this week, and I failed all three exams that I did, just like I thought I would :) I was pretty disappointed about only getting 40% in English though, I think that is mainly because I suck at writing responses to images and texts (I got 7 out of 30 in the reading section, and the same in the viewing section but I got 22 out of 30 in the writing section because I wrote a 4 page story).
I am also incredibly sorry about how short this chapter is, but I like it, even though it's kind of sappy...
anyway! please comment and vote and whatnot if you like it!!!
