Chapter 5

Talia’s POV

I woke up to beeping and shuffling of feet all around me. I slowly opened my eyes and looked around me. I saw nurses all around me. I slightly moved my head to the left to see Ross sitting the chair next to me with his head in his hands. I looked to the right and a nurse was writing on her clipboard. She looked over at me and smiled. I looked back to Ross.

“Ross?” I said. Ross slowly lifted his head. He jumped up as he saw me. I slowly smiled at him. I kneeled by the bed. He grabbed my hand. I groaned slightly.

“Hey. Are you ok?” He asked.

“I’m a little bit in pain. I don’t even know what happened.” I said. Ross laid his head on the bed next to me. I moved my right hand and rested it on the top of his head.

He lifted his head and looked over at me. I smiled and he smiled back. I looked over at the door to see Bree and Riker standing there watching. Bree turned and walked away and Riker followed. I looked back at Ross. He got up and sat next to me. The nurse started to take all the cords and needles off me. I slowly sat up as she left. I quickly wrapped my arms around Ross. HE hugged me back. We pulled apart.

“I miss you Ross.” I said. Ross smiled.

“I missed you too.” Ross said.

“But you're with Bree.”

“Yes I am but we can still be friends right?” Ross asked.

“Of course.” I said. Ross kissed the top of my head. I heard a knock at the door . I looked over to see Riker standing there.

“I better let everyone see you.” Ross said. Ross got up and walked out the door. Riker quickly rushed to my side and sat down.

“Hey Riker.” I said.

“Are you ok?” He asked. I smiled and nodded.

“I love you Riker.” I said. Did I seriously just say that.

“I love you too.” Riker smiled.

“Riker you didn’t let me finish. I love you but we can’t do anything like this to Ross.” I said. He looked down at the bed.

“It always comes back to Ross.” Riker said.

“I know it always will because I feel sparks with Ross and not with you.” I said. “I’m so sorry Riker.” Riker got up and walked out the door. I feel so awful.

~2 Weeks Later~

I got up for the hospital bed. I grabbed my bag and walked to the door. I walked out of the hospital and waited. I saw a dark grey prius drive up. I smiled at the sight of blonde hair through the window. The car stopped and Ross got out.

“Should you be carrying that bag?” Ross asked. I giggled.

“I hit my head on a rock Ross. I think I’ll be just fine.” I said. Ross walked over to me I put my bag down next to me. Ross wrapped his arms around my waist. I put my hands around his neck.

“You know you scared me. Right?” Ross said.

“I know. I’m sowwy.” I said making a pouty face. Ross laughed at me. Ross grabbed my bag and put it in the back. We got in the car and started to drive home.

I kept looking over at Ross. He laughed when he caught me looking at him.

“What are you staring at?” He asked.

“You.” I said. “You are just so adorable.” I said and poked his nose.

“Well you’re more adorable than me.” Ross poked my side. I giggled cause I’m pretty ticklish.

“Alright Alright.” I said. We drove up to my apartment. I got out of the car and got my bag out of the back seat. Ross walked me up to my door.

“You want to come in and have a soda or something?” I asked. Ross nodded and we walked inside. “I’m gonna go put my bag in my room. You make yourself at home.” I said walking down the hall I put my bag in the bedroom and went back into the living room.

“What sodas do you have?” Ross asked. I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge.

“I have dr. pepper, orange soda-” Ross interrupted me.

“Orange please.” Ross said. I looked over at him and he smiled the biggest smile I’ve ever seen in my life. I grabbed our sodas and went and sat next to Ross.

Ross put his arm around my shoulders. I snuggled up next to him.

“I’m glad your ok.” He said.

“I’m glad we are finally together. Nobody in our way.” I said. I kissed his cheek and laid my head on his shoulder.

A/N: Sorry this took so long! My dog just died.

He was my best friend for 10 years. Buddy will be missed.
