Justin's p.o.v

I'm still sitting here, in the waiting room, waiting. Waiting for any news, waiting for Gabriella to wake up, waiting to see if she's okay.

It's been 4 hours and I'm sick of worry. I know I should probably call her mother but I know she's unwell, or I should call Sarah but she's still young to get news like this.

The doctor told me that she had a cut on her arm, which was very deep. The doctor said Gabs whispered something about her boss hurting her and then she passed out again. She had a major blood loss.

I just know something. And I will make that asshole pay. He will be sorry for the rest of his days!

Before I could calm down, the doctor calls me.

"Mr. Finlay?" I jump up and rush over to the doctor.
"She's fine and awake now. I'm just going to keep her here for observation tonight, but she's free to go early tomorrow morning." He calmly tells me.
"Thank you so much doc." I smile and I point to the hall. "Yes, you may see her."

Gabriella's p.o.v

My arm hurts. Geez wtf happened? Oh...yeah now I remember.

Knock knock

"Come in." I say with a soft tone.
"You're okay." Justin comes in with a relieved face.
"I was so worried. When you collapsed and there were blood everywhere, oh gosh I was so worried."
"Justin, thank you, thank you for never letting me fall..." before I could say anything further, he held me. I softly sobbed into his shirt and then I knew it. I was definitely in love with him. More than with any guy before. But would the ghost of HIM allow me happiness?

"I'm sorry about ruining your shirt." I say and points to his shirt that is full of blood.
He chuckles, "Don't worry about it Gabs. It's only a shirt." He smiles afterwards.

I focus on the current situation and then I came to a shocking realization.
"Fuck Justin!" He seems startled.
"This is a private hospital. I don't need more medical bills. I've got so much to pay off already. This is going to kill me...and...." I just start crying.
Why? Why must this happen to me? I've got so much bills back home - Mom's medical bills that would take another 15 years at least for me to pay off, Sarah's schoolbills that would be probably 4 years after she leaves school which is next year. She's 17 years old and she's going to start real life with so much debt. How can I let that happen?
To add to this big fucking giant debt mess... now I'll have this bills to pay, which would take me probably another 4 or 5 years.

"Listen to me Gabriella. Relax. I've already payed your hospital bills. Relax baby girl, you're going to be alright." What? Baby girl?
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have called you that, it sli...." Before he finishes that sentence, my lips meet his and oh my... he's such a good kisser.
"Gabs?" He says when we break apart.
I am totally blushing right now. "It's really cute when you blush."
Oh wait.
"Wait, Justin. Did you say you paid my bills?"
"Yeah. I told them to take you to a private hospital. I just wanted you to get the best medical treatment."
"Oh thank you Justin." I can't help but hug him.

Later that evening, they decided that they would discharge me. Justin took me to his house, which is absolutely stunning. He made me soup and also he took me to his bedroom. I fell asleep on his bed as soon as my head fell on the pillow.

I had this weird dream that I show up to the wedding in jeans and a shirt, and then it hit me: I STILL DON'T HAVE A DRESS!!!!
