Hello guys I made quite a few changes in the story. Taylor doesn't tell Austin everything she just tells him that her brother committed suicide and that her ex boyfriend's 'possy' beat her up. And that's all the important stuff however the whole story was edited over these past few days and I believe that it's better than ever. LOVE YA'LL And remember:

@@@@@@@@@@@@@
I awoke to the smell of rain and a light mist blowing into the room. I looked around the room and saw that the window was open. Austin must have opened it when he got up. I tried to sit up, but i froze as a sharp pain rippled trough my body making it hard to breathe. So I laid back down. I heard Austin talking on the phone down the hall.
"Yeah' He said quietly, "Well tell Eva that if she doesn't bring me home a present then no Cinderella for her." His voice slowly faded away as he walked to the end of the hall. He entered the room a few minutes later with a bottle of Advil and a glass of water. He handed me two Advils.
"After you take these we will go to the hospital." He said. I nodded. I took the pills and we walked downstairs. He helped me into the car and walked around to the driver's side. I began to feel out of breath and light headed as we drove. I set my head on the window and closed my eyes.
I awoke to the sound of beeping. It didn't take long for me to realize I was in the hospital. I opened my eyes and saw Austin sitting in the chair next to the bed.
"Hey." I said
"Hey, the doctor will be in, in a minute." He smiled.
We watched the tv until the doctor came in.
"Hello Ms..." She looked at her clipboard "Parks I am Dr. Monroe what seems to be the problem?" She looked at me. I panicked. What was I going to say? I need to calm down or the heart monitor will go berserk. I took a deep breathe.
"I-"
"She got beat up at school yesterday and the bruises didn't get bad until today." Austin interrupts and I am thankful.
"Alright let's see..." The doctor asks Austin to exit the room since he isn't family while she examines me. She moves the hospital gown to see the bruises. "Oh my..." She says her cold hands graze over my bruise and I bite my tongue to keep from yelping. She then moves to examine my scalp. She's very careful not to touch it. "Ok we are going to need to get you some stitches but first you need and x-Ray so I will send in a nurse to get you ready and then we will go from there." She smiles and walks out of the room.
Soon a nurse comes in and tells me that the doctor said it was best not to walk, due to my ribs being so badly bruised as well as my left calf, so I will need to be wheeled down to the x-Ray room.
My x-rays get taken and I am sent back to my room where Austin is waiting. He smiles at me when I come in. I smile back. The nurse that wheeled me in gives me my stitches and Austin holds my hand. When she leaves I lie back on the bed.
"Hey Austin, thank you for everything." I smile at him.
"Your welcome." He smiles back. He surprises me by grabbing my hand and squeezing it lightly. My skin ignites and I feel the blood rush to my cheeks. We sit there, our hands intertwined, until the doctor joins us again.
"Ok Taylor, your injuries are fairly severe. You have a fracture in your left calf and 3 broken ribs. We will get you a cast for your leg and a cast, wrap, for your ribs. Take it easy for a few months. If you have any pain just take some Advil and you should be fine. You are ok to go to school just no gym, and this lovely young man I'm sure will help you with your things." She gestures to Austin.
