Trust Me, Don't Let Go (Crown The Empire)

Chapter 7: Drunk With Secrets

*Amber*

I regret everything now. I hurt the ones I love by hurting myself, and I hate being in a hospital. It's just fucking meh. I don't feel like home, and I'm mostly alone. Nurses say I need some rest when I just woke up, and it's just stupid. I hate hospitals! My stupid selfish pain got me here, and I can't go back and stop myself from being in this shit.
"Ma'am, someone's here to visit you," the nurse came in to bring Andy with some flowers. The flowers bloomed with vibrant colors with the magenta colored ribbon to hold them together. It was the thing that made my day.
"Oh hey Andy!" I greeted in excitement, and he rushed in. "Thank you, Mary."
"So did they tell you when you're coming out?" he asked as he moved a chair right next to me. He handed the flowers to me, and I'm acting like I've never seen flowers before.
"Yeah. In two days, but I have to go to therapy," I mumbled, and he sighed.
"For how long?" he asked, and I shrugged.
"They haven't said specificly," I answered, and he looked pretty bumbed out.
"So does that mean you're not going to come with us on the tour?" he asked, and I shrugged again.
"If you guys don't have me, who else is going to be the merch girl?" I asked, and he looked at me with a slow blink.
"The girl no one wants," he answered, and I thought about it.
"I'll go. I'll just skip the therapy," I said like it was nothing, and Andy's face just added a smile.
"You would do that just for me?" he asked, and I chuckled.
"Doing it for the whole group. Not just you," I giggled, and he started laughing with me.
"The guys woke up late, so they're going to be here soon," he stated, and it was starting to get a little awkward.
"If they woke up late, how come you're here early?" I asked, and he chuckled a little bit. He also looked at little tense and nervous.
"Um, I couldn't stop thinking about you," he admitted as his whole face started turning pink.
"Oh," I felt my cheeks turn into pink, and I felt this feeling that I didn't feel in the longest time. It was the feeling in the moment that Andy had me on his laps, long time ago.
"I-I mean. Everyone can't stop thinking about you after...the incident," he covered it up, and I looked away.
"Um, so do you know how Alana is?" I asked, trying to change the subject.
"Pft, no. She won't answer my calls, and I'm getting a little worried about her," he mumbled, and I looked down at the flowers.
"How did you tell her it's over? Nicely and soft, or straight out and rude?" I asked, and he sighed.
"It wasn't easy. I just told her I didn't think it was going to work out between us, and she just ran back to Bailey to say something rude. Then she left the hospital," he explained.
"I'm afraid she's going to plan revenge on me again. I don't want to be hurt again," I said as I turned into a little ball. Andy came close to me.
"She's not going to get close to you. She's not going to even lay her eyes on you. If she even touches you, she's going to pay. If we're here with you, nothing is going to hurt you ever again," Andy stated, and it started to become a moment again. The moment like in a bus.
"Are you sure?" I asked.
"I promise," he said as our foreheads touched.
"Let's not get too far, Andy. Please," Hayden interrupted, but I wished he hadn't. I looked at Hayden and Brent standing there with some clothes folded.
"Why do you guys have my clothes?" I asked, and they looked at each other.
"You're leaving today," Brent stated, and me and Andy looked confused.
"I'm leaving in two days," I corrected.
"Nope. You're starting therapy in two days," Hayden corrected, and my face lit up. I couldn't wait to leave.
"Yes. Finally," I sighed in relief. The nurse was still there with them, so she came to take off all the wires on me.
"Go change. Bailey's going to get worried if we don't rush it out of here," Brent rushed me out. I jogged into the bathroom as I snatched the clothes from his hands to go change. I quickly changed into some skinny jeans with a purple striped tank top with a pair of black high top converse. I got out to see the guys waiting anxiously. I went to get my phone and flowers, and we left the hospital after we finished writing some forms. I entered the car and heard the new album blasting Maniacal Me.
"Yes! This is my jam!" I shouted, and we started rocking out in the car while going back to the house.
