"Hi Lauren." Joey voice cracked. He cleared his throat.

I sat up in the bed and stared at him. Morgan stared back and forth at me and Joey.

"Morgan can you ask the nurse when I am free to leave?" I asked, her standing up and exiting the room. You could cut the tension with a knife in here (AYE 5SOS REFERENCE). I stared down at my hands as they lay interlaced in my lap. Joey walked over to the chair that my best friend was sitting in just a minute ago. He looked up at me but my attention stayed on my hands. Then he spoke up.

"Lauren," he started. I gulped and slowly moved my head up, but not looking in his direction. "Im sorry, about everything. Over these past few days I havent been able to sleep knowing that you were in the hospital and that I could possibly loose you. I started drinking again and I know I agreed to stop drinking and I understand if you hate me because I hate me too and got in a fight with these guys because I couldnt deal with the fact that I hurt you and I didnt realize how much I need you until I almost lost you and I couldnt imagine what I would do without you even though I fucked up our relationship I still care so much about you Lauren. And I dont ever want you to forget that. Ever." he finished, taking one of my hands and interlacing our fingers.

"Joey," was all I could work out of my mouth that was dropped open. I hesitated to look over at him but his hands came to the bottom of my chin and brought my face to his and connected our lips. I felt a rush throughout my whole body. Ive missed his touch, his lips, him. I just never realized that until now. I pulled away after shortage of breath and stared at him. My mind was all over the place but I spoke up.

"I dont think any lesser of you because you drank again. I dont hate you and you shouldnt hate you. I understand."

"But I screwed everything up and it just added onto everything. I know you are mad deep down. I know it."

"Joey im not mad. I wouldnt ever be mad at you I couldnt imagine how hard it mustve been but im here now and im not going anywhere." I said, placing my forehead on his.

"So what are we? he asked.

"Whatever you want us to be."

He smiled and pecked my lips again. I heard Morgan clear her throat and I quickly pulled away from Joey, directing my attention to her.

She gave us and eyebrow wiggle before speaking. I rolled my eyes. "Nurse said you can leave tomorrow if everything runs smoothly."

I smiled at her and sighed in relief. I was glad that every was back to normal. In that moment I swear I saw Harry standing in the corner of the room and smiling at me but when I blinked, he was gone.

------the ACTUAL end-------

MORGAN THIS IS FOR YOU ILYSFM NO MATTER WHAT ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE ME I SUPPORT YOU SO FUCKING MUCH 😘😘😘
