He Saved Me

Chapter twenty three

~Masons P.O.V~

The drive took so long.

"Hi, we are here to see Leah Williams" I say running to the front desk.

"I'm sorry. She is not allowed to have visitors" The lady says.

"Excuse me mam, I'm sorry but I am her guardian" My mom says and she nods.

"Room 112 on floor 4" She gives a sympathetic smile and we rush to the elevator.

"It's taking to long" I say running to the stairs and sprinting faster than I knew possible.

I run to room 112 and brace myself for what was inside.

I open the door to see Leah laying in a hospital bed connected to tubes, machines and iv's.

"Mason" My mom says touching my back.

No matter how much I could have prepared myself, I would never have been ready.

That was my breaking point.

I couldn't stand the sight of here there. All frail and lifeless.

"Mr and Mrs. Williams" The doctors says shaking their hands.

"Oh, um. We aren't her biological parents" My father says and my mom hits him.

"What, um. What happened?" My mother says and I look at Leah, scared.

"She was speeding and ran a red light. She is currently suffering from internal bleeding near her stomach, a broken leg and arm, a couple broken ribs and a concussion. She is very lucky and should be up shortly. She does need to stay here for a while though. She will also be in a lot of pain" The doctor says and leaves.

"Mason, here. We will leave you alone for a minute" My sister says, giving me a chair.

I take a few seconds to calm down a little bit.

I sit in the chair and grab Leah's hand, placing my head next to it on the bed.

"Um, I don't really know what to say Leah. I guess just why? Why did you leave? Why were you speeding? Why didn't I tell you everything I should have? Why did it have to be you" I say a few tears rolling down my face.

"Please wake up Le. I need you here with me right now" I say closing my eyes tightly.

"It's okay Mas" Ellie says, her voice cracking.

"Come here" She says hugging me. She's going to get better, you heard the doctor. She's okay, but she's going to be in a lot of pain. Which is where you, her knight in shining armor comes in and helps take care of her" Ellie says jokingly, trying to lighten the mood.

"Haha, so funny Ellie" I sarcastically answer, cracking a smile.

"Mason, Ellie, go get a snack" My dad says and we nod, walking out of the room.

"You guys are made for each other" Ellie says out of no where.

"What?" I say confused.

"You and Leah, you guys are the perfect couple. I mean look at you guys as friends alone. Imagine how great of a couple you would be. I'm calling it" Ellie says picking up her snack from the machine.
