Opposites Attract

Chapter 13

ELSA POV

I sat in the emergency room hallway against the wall with my head in my hands. My face was tear stained and my makeup was smeared in distress from rubbing my hands over my eyes over and over again.

"Ms Winters?"

My head shot up. The nurse stood in front of me with a black clip board against her torso.

I stood up, "yes?"

"I'm sorry about what happened to your boyfriend.."

"He's not my.. boyfriend.." I choked out looking down at my bare-feet.

She furrowed her eyebrows then continued, "he wants to see you."

I looked up and she turned around and started to walk down the long hallway. I followed behind her like a lost puppy.

We came to a door marked: H.I.J.F.

The nurse pushed it open and held it for me. I hesitated then stepped through.

The nurse turned and closed the door behind me.

I spun around and faced Jack who was on his back facing up towards the heavens.

He had a thick bandaged wrapped around his forehead. He laid knocked out...cold. His mouth gaped open as if he was still screaming.

My hand shot up to my mouth and my eyes mouth suddenly tasted the familiar salty tears.

I stumbled over to the bed and took his hand in mine,

"I..I'm so sorry Jack.." I repeated this over and over squeezing his hand for god knows how long.

I felt a hand softly clamp over my shoulder and I jumped slightly letting go of Jacks hand.

His hand dropped and hit the bed frame with a thump.

I spun up and there stood Miles. His hair was wild and his eyes blood shot.

I narrowed my eyes and slowly stood up to his level.

Well up to his shoulders.

I cringed and spoke quietly,

"Are you.. High?" His eyes widened and he rubbed his eyes trying to hide it.

My face twisted in disgust.

His hands wrapped around my waist and he tried to kiss me. I pushed him away but he clung on.

"Get out." I growled

"Get out! Get out, Get out, Get out!" I raised my voice to a scream pushing him into the door.

His eyes widened and his hand fumbled the door knob. He pulled it open and fell out of the room.

I slammed it behind him and sunk down against the hardwood. I stared at Jack.

His head slowly turned towards me and his eyes fluttered open.

"Elsa.." He mumbled.

I smiled laughing over my tears. I tried my best to wipe them away.

He closed his eyes and grinned,

"did I get him?"
