A Southern Belle Summer

Chapter 8

After about 30 minutes of the doctor cleaning up my wound, he started to stitch me up. And considering where the cut was, I had to stand up the entire time, which was very painful by the way. Andrew was holding my hand the whole time, and couldn't help but think how perfect our hands fit together. It was like they where made to be molded together.

I squeezed his hand tighter when the needle went through my skin. It was excrutiating pain.

Mackenzie and Kyle took my truck back to the house to get me some clothes, since the ones I were wearing where drenched in blood. When the got back and where walking in the room he was doing the last stitch. It was kinda awkward...me just standing there in my Daisy Duke shorts and my bra. Yeah... like I said, awkward... 

After he finished up with the stiches, the boys walked out to the receptionist to handle the paperwork. Mackenzie stayed back with me to help me change. I was so happy that she brought me my favorite baggy black Fuge jogging pants and my baggy Josh Hutcherson t-shirt. Oh how I just love Josh Hutcherson... I got my pants on by myself but had to get help from Mackenzie with the shirt. After I was dressed she gave me a big hug, but being careful not to touch my side. She then said, "I'm so glad you're okay Gray, I was so worried about you."

I hugged her back and couldn't help the smile that spread on my lips. Her next words wiped the smile off. "So what hapened with Zack?" she pulled away with a small frown on her face.

"Well, the same as always. Oh, Gray baby I want you back. I promise not to cheat on you again. All the same crap he always says, except this time he kissed me afterwards, and that's when I stormed out of the store." We had started walking to the lobby when I continued, "He just pisses me off so much. It's over I don't want to be with him, so why can't he see that?" I was just really frustrated at that point, but had to stop talking cause the guys where coming into view.

"Hey, you ready to go?" Andrew asked sweetly with a heartmelting smile.

"Yea," I replied quietly while holding my truck keys out to him. He grabbed them and gave me a sheepish smile. I curled up in the back seat with my head resting on Mackenzie's lap, while Kyle sat up front with Andrew. The ride home was silent other than Andrew and Kyle's small talk.

Once we arrived home, I was engulfed into a big hug by my mother and father. Mama was really upset that I didn't inform her I was hurt. "Grayson Elizabeth Smith! Why didn't you call us or even a text would have been nice. We where worried sick about you, we didn't know what happened. The hospital called saying yaw where on yaws way home. They wouldn't even tell us what happened to you or if you where ok!" she was flipping out.

"Mom it's okay, I'm fine," I said while pulling up my shirt to show them the stiches. Mom gasped while dad laughed and walked up to me to give a hug.

"No tears?" he asked.

"Dad, what have I grown up hearing? Cowgirls don't cry. So no there where no tears, it hurt like heck but I kept thinking what is deddy going to do to me if he found out I cried over a little cut." with that being said dad laughed, and mom calmed down. Silence overcame all of us so I spoke up again, "Well it has been one eventful day, so I'm gonna head on up to bed."

With that mom and dad told me night and I turned around to face Mackenzie, Kyle, and Andrew. Andrew was the first to speak up, "Well it's getting late I guess were gonna head home, but if you need us just call and we'll be right over. Okay? Good now go get some sleep and I'll see you tomorrow." he gave me a quick hug and him and Kyle drove off.
