Broken

Chapter 13

Lucas's POV

The beeping of the machine gets faster. I don't know what to do. I start panicking, what's going on? I run outside of the room and bolt to the nurse's station, "nurse! I need a nurse!" I shout. Nobody comes, I jog down the hall and see multiple blanket covered bodies, what the hell is going on. I go back to Breeze's room and her body is covered by a blanket.

I wake up to the sound of the door creaking open, sweat dropping down onto my arms. I see a dark figure walking up to Breeze's bedside. The figure bends over to her forehead, the light shines on it's face. Harry. He plants a kiss onto her forehead and puts her hair behind her right ear, "I love you, Breeze," he whispers and kisses her forehead again then tiptoes out of the room. So many thoughts are running through my mind and I can't think straight. On the phone, Harry acted like he didn't give a shit.

I see a white note on the side of her bed, I reach for it. It says 'Breeze' on the front side of the envelope. I quietly rip the envelope open, it's a handwritten letter from Harry:

Breeze,

I know I haven't treated you well since I left for California. I knew if I came back, everything would be different. My life would be different, your life would be different, so I decided to stay. I was a drunken mess while I was up there, I was fed up with my life and I was disappointed with myself. I thought about calling you, but I never knew what exactly to say. All I can say is, I'm sorry. I want things back to the way it was. I know I've been a dick since I've come back, I tried making you jealous, so you would come back to me and I'm sorry.

I love you.

Harry

I slowly put the letter in my lap and I see Breeze stir in her sleep. Her eyes flutter open, "what's that?" She stretches and yawns.

I hesitate, "oh, it's the breakfast menu."

She nods with a smile, "thank you for being here."

I lean up and kiss her forehead, "I'll always be here for you, Breeze."

There'a a knock to the door, a short nurse waddles in, "good morning y'all! I'm just here to check your vitals."

The nurse fiddles with a few knobs and writes a few things down and her smile grows, "well, Ms. Hall, everything seems to be good! I'll go see when you can be discharged!"

I grab Breeze's hand and gently kiss it. I'm in love with her. Her smile, her eyes, her everything, she's beautiful. We exchange a few looks and smiles when the nurse comes in with a huge smile on her face.

"You can leave, but I want you to take it easy for the next few days, just to be careful, okay?" The nurse explains.

I look over to Breeze and you can tell she's happy even without an adorable smile. Her stunning eyes stare back at me, they twinkle because of the lighting. Her eyes are smiling.

She gets out of bed and stretches. The back of her gown falls and her ass is exposed, I try not to look or smile. She jumps up and grabs her ass, "oops!" Her cheeks redden quickly, due to embarrassment. I can't help but smile. 

I slowly get up from the uncomfortable chair the hospital provided and stroll over to her. I am about half a foot taller than her so she has to strain her neck to look me in the eyes. I reach for her hands, and intertwine our fingers, Breeze looks up at me and bites her bottom lip. I drop her hands and raise mine to her cheeks and carress them. I lean down and our lips meet, her lips are soft. She smiles and our lips move at a pattern. I move my tongue into her mouth and continue the pattern. The passionate kisses slowly end and we stare into each others eyes, for what felt like minutes, but ended to the sound of a loud throat clearing.

Breeze quickly removes herself from my hands and looks to see who was standing in the dooway, she sighs, "hi Harry."

He slowly moves his eyes from me to Breeze and he huffs, "hello beautiful." He takes big strides to her and cups her head into his hands and kisses her forehead. 

I wipe my bottom lip with my thumb and look away. What was he trying to do? One-up me? He must have seen a little more of our make out session than he intended to. 

Breeze gives him  a small smile and walks to the bathroom to change. 

Harry slowly walks to me, "so, how was sleeping in that chair, last night?" 

I chuckle, "it was fine. I was near Breeze and that's all I care about."

He looks away and smiles. "well I can stay tonight so you can go home and get some rest."

"She's going home today. Actually when she gets out of the bathroom, I'll be taking her home to her mom."

Harry looks me in the eye and clutches his fists, "what are you trying to do? You think Breeze will go out with you? Yeah good luck with that."

Breeze walks out of the bathroom in light demin skinny jeans, a floral crop top, and white converse. Her hair is in a messy bun onto of her head and she put on a little makeup. She looks stunning.

I turn around and smile, "you ready, beautiful?" 

She grins and her cheeks redden, "actually, can Harry take me home?" 

My heart falls to my feet. Why does she want Harry to take her home? Think of something, you idiot! I frown, "but I was gonna take you to Starbucks!"

"I can take her by Starbucks," Harry chirps. I roll my eyes.

I feel Breeze's small hand grab my left hand. She rubs her thumb in circles across the top of my hand, "I'll see you tomorrow?" 

My lips curve upward, "yeah, that'll be great."

She kisses my cheek and walks out with Harry's arm around her.
