Rorys POV
I blink open my eyes. I'm greeted with sight of a blank hospital room. What?
"Is she awake?" someone in the corner whispers. I slowly sit up, much to my pounding heads distress, and look over to see whom the voice came from.
Luke and Michael are sat on two chairs in the corner of the room just staring at me. my brow furrows and that's when I realise, I'm in a hospital bed.
"What?" I mutter under my breath "I-I have some questions" I tell no one in particular. "Three actually"
"Yeah?"
"Yeah. So err, question one. Wh-why am I in a hospital bed?" I pick up the weird cloth on the bed and discard it into the floor, thankfully I'm wearing clothes.
"Well, the doctors didn't have an actual medical term for it but, in short, to much oxygen went to your head and you passed out. Your only in a hospital bed because this happened right in the middle of a corridor and we also weren't supposed to wake you up so...yeah" Luke's trails off slightly. I nod to let him knew I understood.
"Ok. Sorry" I don't know why I was apologising. "So, question two" I turn to look at Michael for this one. "What are you doing here? you should be with...them" he avoids my eye contact.
"Yeah well I was with them. Then Demi told me you had, as she put it 'gone limp and like fell asleep and omfg' " I giggle at the camp voice he put on when quoting the girl. "I didn't come at first but the doctors had to take them...for the surgery. Rory I couldn't be there on my own, I needed you" he starts to cry.
I jump off the bed and rush over to him, standing in front of him. He looks up at me and I raise my eyebrow. He gets the hint and stands up so I can hug him.
"It will be fine Mikey, they said there was an 18% chance it would work and I know that those odds are thin but your Dad is a fighter Mikey. He'll pull through. There's no other option" I try and convince myself of my own words just as much as convince Michael. He nods slightly and rests his chin on my head. I move so I can look up at him. He looks bad, as if his parents were dying...oh wait.
Happy thoughts Rory, be strong for the both of you.
That's when I notice his still faded hair, we were meant to dye that today.
"Hey you, when are we finally going to dye your hair" I say ruffling his fluffy pale pink hair. I laughs and swats my hand away.
"Later maybe? depending on how this goes, fresh start?" His eyes are hopeful, I nod.
Then I turn and focus my attention onto Luke who is sat watching us.
"Question three?" he raises his eyebrow.
"Yup. So, how come you, err, are here too?" I say softly. I don't want to seem rude but.... I don't know, I think that even in the short time I've known Luke I'm starting to....like him. I need him telling me we are just friends to help stamp out the feelings, I don't need these feelings. The last time I felt something for a guy I ended up....no. Don't think about it.
He looks slightly taken aback from my question. "Well I was just coming into check up on you and you were crying and you said my name and then you passed out and I-I couldn't leave you after that." He looks down shyly. His embarrassment is so cute. NO! stop stop stop. You can't think like that. You can't feel like this.
Michael is the only guy I can trust. He won't hurt me like the others have. I know he won't.
"Thanks Luke" I smile sweetly at him. He seems to relax then.
"So...where is Demi then?" I want to thank her for helping out.
"I think she's still out side" Luke waves his hand towards the door. I nod and walk towards it. Opening the door I can see two people sat on some seats outside. One of them I recognise as Demi but the other I don't know. Demi sees me and runs over, pulling me into a hug.
"Ohmygoshimsogladyourokay" she speaks so quickly all her words slur into one. I giggle at her.
"Demi I didn't hear a word of that" I laugh.
"Ok ok"she giggles "I said 'oh my gosh I'm so glad your okay' "
"Oooo, AWH thanks" I smile my biggest smile at her, something about her happiness is contagious. "So...umm...whos this" I nod towards the boy still sat on a chair. Tanned skin and chocolate brown eyes and hair. He was good looking, extremely so, but not my type.
"This is Calum" at the mention if his name he moves and walks over to us "my boyfriend" she giggles as he nuzzles her neck playfully.
"Hey"
"Hey"
Just then Michael and Luke emerge from the room.
"Well see you in a bit. Michael, let's go talk to a nurse"
