Youth's POV

I open my eyes , i feel pains all over my body , and all I see is white the walls, I'm lying on a bed, did I just get to heaven? If so I think God is mistaken, I'm supposed to be in hell , I've done a hell lotta shits he should be mad at me for,
I'm trying to gain my consciousness, I turn to see someone leaning his /her head on my bed sleeping, I think its a "her",  is she some Angel assigned to watch my room in heaven?
Why is she sleeping
I never knew angels slept.
I slowly  sit up , the pain I feel is maddening, I look up left beside my to see drips and tubes that all have a connection to my body,
Oh thanks goodness! I'm not dead
I'm at the hospital, I'm too young to die, God probably rejected me at his gates,
I wonder if Susan is okay,
But then, who is this I poke the lady gently , she clumsily yawns and stretch, she was Susan
" Susan" I mutter ,she looks divinely beautiful even with dark circles beneath her eyes , it must be due to lack of sleep, her hair is packed up in s pony tail,

My God , her sleepy face is so beautiful
For some reason my heart started beating faster, she looks at me obviously  startled to see who had woken her,
She jumps out of her sit with a broad smile on her face , to my surprise she fling her hands around neck
The force at which she engulfed me had me writhing in pain, but I could bear all the pain in the world for her,
  "You don't know how happy I am to finally see you awake , I'm sorry its all my fault that he did this to you, I should have ran faster, I should have call the cops earlier , I shou....."

"Shhhhh" I hush cutting her short , she was already sobbing,
She was crying because of me? I know it sounds insane but I like the feeling I get from that.
She unhooks her hand from my neck and sits beside my bed,

"Your mom will be here soon, she  just left an hour ago to change into new clothes, your sister was here too, but i was told she travelled back to Ohio today" she informs ,

"My mum? Isabella? How long have I been here" I ask horrified

"You've been unconscious for five days youth, everyone has been worried, your mom and sister flew in a day after you got admitted, they'll probably hate me when they learn that I'm the reason you are in this situation" Susan says, her voice filled with emotion, sad emotion.

"Hey, its not your fault okay? Don't beat your self up over nothing,I'm fine now,  besides an awesome guy like me wasn't about to  die like a feeble mosquito" I smirk

She smiles , the ever beautiful smile,
Oh heavens! How can a human being be this beautiful?
Then I see something that catches my eyes
Dimples!
I never knew she had them, or was I imagining?
Out of curiosity I use my index finger to poke her dimple , the look she gives me is priceless

"Hey creepy! first its rude to stare so stupidly but then I let it slide and now you poke my face? Give me a good reason why I shouldn't have you transfered to a psychiatric home?" She says trying to sound serious, but she fails woefully at the act and I roll in laughter ,

"Keep laughing , I'll soon have your neck hanged" she jokingly threatens

I know there's something wrong with me, I'm laughing like a bloated cow , just because she called me creepy and threatened to hang me? Oh susan you do things to me.

Just then we hear a knock,
Arrgh
Who could the killjoy be
Susan stands up to get the door, I'm reach to stop her, whoever was at the door could go back , I don't care but she leaves too fast

" Your mom and girlfriend is here" she mouths from the door before opening it widely
Girlfriend? What's she saying?
My mum steps in alongside Dennis,
Shit! Fucking shit Dennis!
What the hell is she doing here, I remember leaving her to a mouth combat with Nicky ,
Hell! I know she must have told Susan she was my girlfriend,
I really need to fix this ,
I can't have Susan thinking I have a woman in my life when she happens to be the only woman I want in my life,
I don't know where all this excess feelings emanated from but
What I feel for Susan is stronger than I care to admit ,
I'm drawn to her, her beauty , her soul
Everything
