Chapter Nineteen: "Let Me Die"

Friday Afternoon

"GRAYSON DOLAN PLEASE," I tell the desk attendant as she hands me the sign in sheet. I signed it as messy as possible and hurried my way down to his room. I could barely believe that he was finally awake. It must've been a miracle because usually people sometimes stayed in comas for years.

I enter the room silently. Perri, Ethan, Mel, Lars, Becca, his parents, and just about any other person Grayson knew was there. There was cake, Get well soon balloons, and stuffed animals everywhere. It made me smile. Who wouldn't want to wake up to all of these loving people?

Everyone greets me. After going around the room and exchanging hugs, I was finally over my anxiety of the large group. I didn't like big crowds, even if it was full of familiar faces. I always felt like I was being judged no matter what. Yeah, I was a very insecure person, but even the most confident person in the world has a flaw that they don't like.

I set my eyes upon Grayson. I was humbled to see his warm brown eyes again. One of them were slightly blackened and his bottom lip had a cut in it. I found this to be incredibly sexy. Weird enough, I liked guys with a little bruises.

"Can we talk?" he asks looking like a sad puppy. "Alone?"

"Yeah," I respond.

He gives everyone in the room a silent look as if he wanted them to leave. I awkwardly stood there letting people pass by me. The room was finally empty after a while. He sits up in the bed and lets out a sigh. I hear the muscles in his back pop, and he clenches his jaw, harvesting the pain.

"Take it easy," I advised, not being able to stand how badly he was probably hurting.

"It's all good," He laughs. Coughs followed after his words which made me think that it really wasn't all good.

"I don't think a few broken ribs and a broken leg is all good Gray. Not to mention the possible brain damage. You could've-"

"Died?" he adds. "Yeah, I know."

I pause before repeating, "Yeah."

"It's nice to know that you're worried, but I'm not exactly sure why you would be under the circumstances that when we last spoke you were telling me about how you slept with Ethan," he says not looking directly at me.

I begin to rub my thighs together. I always hated that habit, but it was so easing, and I needed to be calmed down at the moment.

"Grayson I'm pr...I'm pretty sorry. It didn't mean anything though. I was just being stupid," I lied thinking twice about revealing my pregnancy. I didn't want my growing belly to be the center of the topic.

"Maybe I should've died in the accident," he states. "That way would be able to be with him."

I paused wondering if he really meant that, but he was as serious as I had ever seen him. He was a completely different person. This wasn't the same Grayson that I had fallen in love with. This was an imposter. It had seemed that all the love he had ever felt was lost. I had no sight of his true self.

"You can't say things like that!" I scold. "Don't you know that stuff like that fucks up people's heads?"

He shrugs without a care. I immediately hush For a second I didn't know whether I was dealing with him or Ethan. Either way, the asshole I once knew was back. He had went from full on prince charming to Hades. Two different fairy tales,  but the best analogy.

"So you're just going to shut me out?" I ask expecting an actual answer.

He shrugs again. My face turns so red that I was sure I looked like a cherry.

"So what, I slept with your brother? You act like you didn't sleep with Mel after you slept with me. What's the difference? I WAS YOUR REBOUND!"

"The difference was that I actually loved you!"

"And I didn't love you? I've practically been beating myself up over you for the last three months My grades are dropping, my friendships are becoming harder to maintain, and don't even get me started on my parents and Mel!" I scream. "I thought you were going to die, and I couldn't stop thinking about it. Every second of the day I prayed that you wouldn't-" I take a deep breath. I was overwhelming myself. I could feel my blood pressure risin by the second.

That seemed to wake him up a bit. He kind of looked like he cared, and I wanted him to. I needed him to care.

"It's that bad?"

I nod. "It's that bad."

"Damn. I didn't know I scared you. If anything I scared myself."

He begins to scratch the cut on his eyebrow, which was just below the wrap on his head.

"What do you mean?" I ask him.

"I mean that I was frightened by the accident. When I woke up, all I could think about was if you were okay. You should've seen my face when my parents told me I'd been out for months."

There was pain in his voice. I could tell that he was really shaken up by what happened. I was too. Car accidents could really alter your life. It's like one day you're living care free and the next you're stressing over the fact that every little second of life counts.

"Can I sign your cast?" Grayson asks, pointing to my arm. I look down at it. I had totally forgotten this thing was on. I'd had it on for so long that it had felt like a part of my actual arm. I was thankful for his attempt to change the subject. I was so tired of arguing these days.

"Yeah," I answer. "Only if I can sign yours."

"Of course," he says, patting his leg.

We both smile. I wasn't completely over the argument we had had, but I was willing to let it go for now. I didn't want to ruin a good moment. I wanted to talk about it responsibly.

"Sign it big," Grayson tells me. " I don't want a bunch of random people taking up too much space. I wanna be able to see yours."

I blush. "Okay."

"Okay."

"So when are they releasing you?" I try to break the awkward silence.

"In a day or two. That's if my test go well."

"Have they run any yet?"

"Yeah. They want to keep me to see if I've suffered from any permanent brain damage. They also told me to sit out the rest of the soccer season."

"Oh. KK"

"KK?"

"It means okay, but it's another way of saying okay when you've already said it. For exam-"

"I know what it means Baby Girl, but it's just that I've never heard you say it. " Gray laughs. "It's out of the ordinary. "

I smirk. "Since when am I ever out of the ordinary? Better yet, when do you ever say that?"

He put his hand on his chin and starts rubbing it as if he were thinking. I roll my eyes as he was being arrogant.

"Sometimes I just can't stand you," I smile.

He kisses my forehead and looks me in my eyes. "You love me anyways though."

I chuckle. "That I do, Grayson Dolan. That I do."
