In Love With My Math Teacher

Chapter 18

🌸Joy's POV🌸

He saved me. JM caught the bullet. The bullet that should've hit me,not him. Elle is nowhere to be seen. JM is on the floor,bleeding and unconscious while Anne took care of him- since she knows how to do it because her mom is a nurse. It all happened so fast. One moment we're arguing about who's gonna get shot then the next thing you know,JM is bleeding and Elle fled the scene. One question is bugging me: How in the world did Elle knew about me and JM's relationship?

"He's fine now Joy but we still need to take him to the hospital,alright?" I nodded,my throat feeling dry.

"Hey...where's Sir Lourence?" Anne asked.

"What do you mean?" I asked,voice cracked.

"He came here with us and now I have no idea where they took him."

Then suddenly the door inside the room shook and both me and Anne stared at it,quite shocked of the sudden move. Neither of us said a word,both still shock when the door shook again but this time it opened and a body stumbled out.

"Oh my god,Sir!" Anne shouted as she ran towards the body- which is Sir Lourence I suppose.

Anne lift Sir Lourence into a sitting position. He looked ragged. His hair is dirty,little blood from his forehead,mouth taped and arms and kegs both tied up. Anne removed the tape while I started to undo the knots from his legs.

"Just call me Lourence outside of school,would ya?" He said.

"You're there the whole time?" I asked,my voice sounding better now.

"Yeah,I heard everything actually. I heard a gunshot,who got hit?" He asked and I remembered JM's bleeding body. I stood up and ran to it.

"Help me lift him up so we can get the hell out of this place." I said.

Anne managed to remove the rest of the knots from Lourence's arms and they both help me carry JM outside the building. When we reached JM's car,Anne sat at the front seat while I'm at the back with JM's still unconscious body laying beside me,his head resting on my lap while Lourence is gonna drive. I'm not used to calling him by just his first name.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

He's gonna be okay.

Those four words kept repeating and repeating in my mind. Me,Anne and Lourence are all waiting at the Emergency Room of this hospital which I don't know the name. The nurse said that JM needs to have the bullet removed immediately since he lost a lot of blood. That's kinda funny though,JM is afraid of blood and now he's bleeding. I can't seem to smile though,knowing that the person I love can die. But I sure hope not.

"He's gonna be okay,Anne. He's a tough guy,he beat me once in thumb wrestle." Lourence said and I laughed a little at that.

"Ey,don't laugh. He broke my thumb that day."

"H-He did?" I asked.

"Nah,I'm just kidding. Got you to laugh though." He said with a smile.

"How did you two meet?" I asked.

"Me and Jerson?"

"No,me and Anne."

"Don't you sass me,you're still my student." He said.

"I'll just buy me a cup of coffee,be right back." Anne said as she stood up and went to the vendo machine.

"Well,we met at Elementary. He gave me a piece of cookie that day since Wilson the bully took mine and we became best friends ever since!" I laughed,imagining a little version of JM and Lourence.

"We went to the same school in High School and tried our best to have as much class together. We we're the 'Cuties' as the girls called us- no need to be jealous that was a long time ago." He said to me and I slapped his forearm.

"We went to the same University together and got the same course- obviously. We we're classmates with Elle,she's nice back then maybe that's why Jerson courted her but that was the past. You do know what they say,leave the last but don't forget it." I nodded in agreement.

As Lourence finished his flashback and Anne came back holding her cup of coffee,a doctor aged 30-35 approached us.

"You're the ones who brought Jerson,yes?" We nodded.

"The surgery went fine and we removed the bullet from his body. We also managed to find some blood to give him and he's perfectly fine. But as of the moment,we're only allowing one visitor at a time,so who will be it?" Anne and Lourence nodded at me.

"Well then,let's go Ms...?"

"Joy Henderson." I said stretching my arm out.

"Doctor James Martin." He said and shook my hand.

We walked the long corridor that seemed endless and enter the elevator. Like always,it felt awkward inside since me and Dr. James are inside. We stepped out at floor 6 and walked the seemingly endless corridor.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Dr. James asked and I nodded.

We stopped at a white door with a sign saying "Room 610".

"You can enter,I will give you both some privacy." Dr. James said with a sweet smile.

"Thank you." I said and he nodded.

I twisted the doorknob with shaky hands and pushed the door opened. There he was. He was in a white hospital gown and he's laying on the bed. His head turned and looked at me.

"JM..." I breathed out.

"Who are you?"

My heart stopped then and there.
