Drunk On Me

Chapter Twenty-One : Night in the Hospital.

Luke had opened his eyes for the first time since he was hit. His gorgeous eyes focused on me and he reached out his hand to mine. I couldn't let my anger get the best of me, not at a moment like this.

The doctors said it was a miracle for him to be alive.

"The power of love." They joked with a smile.

After they had tended to his needs and given him his much needed medicine, they left the room and it was just me and the man of my dreams. I didn't care that Ginger was having his baby. I'm sure he had a great explanation.

We sat together in silence for at least 5 minutes when he moved again. But this time he was pointing at something in the direction of his clothes.

"What is it baby?" I asked him, concerned.

"Pocket." Was all he could manage to say but those few words meant the world to me. I was the first to hear him speak.

I instantly sprang out of my seat and grabbed his jeans and searched all his pockets. I only found a few dollars and a pack of gum so I moved on to his jacket.

On the inside pocket of his jacket there was a little box.

I started to open it when I heard a faint voice whispering "No!" I looked over to Luke who was out stretching his hand as much as he could and I assumed he wanted the box, so I handed it to him. All he did was tuck it under his pillow and drift off into a painless palace in his dreams.

He was so beautiful when he slept.

While he was asleep I realized I hadn't had an actual meal all day and I was starving. I started searching online for my favorite restaurants phone number. I thought I owed it to myself to get my favorite.

When I found the number, I called and ordered a crabby burger sub with extra crab and a side of onion rings.

15 minutes later I was getting in my car and heading to pick up my food. It was the first car ride all day that I hadn't cried. When I picked it up I paid with Luke's card and drove back to the hospital.

I was in the middle of eating my sub when a nurse came in and told me visiting hours were almost over.

"Well that sucks because I am not leaving his side."

"Ma'am, he won't be waking anytime soon and if he does I will be sure to tell him that you left against your will."

"Except when he wakes up I will be here so you won't have to tell him anything." I almost yelled as a made myself a comfy bed on the floor.

She turned and walked away and that was the last time anyone said anything to me about leaving him.

****LUKE'S POV****

I awoke around mid night and felt a hand on mine. I looked down and there was my perfect, beautiful girlfriend. God I love her. I started rubbing circles on her thumb until I slowly drifted back into my dreams.
