I wake up to my mom and dad talking to someone. I try to open my eyes, but the its in the room are to bright, I groan in pain. I have an excruciating headache. When I am able to open my eyes completely my mom looks at me as well as my dad with concerned filled eyes, I hadn't realized that the doctor had left until he came back in.

"Hey your awake, and I have your results." He says looking at my parents and I, I nod.

"Ok, well you have a broken ankle, and a badly bruised back, and a little concussion. You are to stay out of school until you are well enough you can get up without falling. You are to be woken up every two hours while you sleep because of the concussion." My parents and I nod, the doctor then leaves.

Then my parents go outside. Six people walk in a couple minutes later, I know all of them. Taehyung looks at Toni.

"Scan him." He says with a concern stiff voice.

"Ok." She says sounding irritated by the minute.

She moves her eyes up and down my body, then turns back to Taehyung.

"The doctor was right, a broken ankle, concussion, and a very badly bruised back, but he didn't tell you have to wear a back brace because of it, he only told you to rest and to be woken up every two hours due to the concussion." She says, Taehyung nods.

I haven't been able to speak to him, I can tell he's trying to keep his distance from me. Taehyung offers to take me home in the morning since the doctor wants me to stay over night so they can make sure I'm good on going home, but I tell him my parents are taking me home in the morning. The nurse comes in.

"Visiting hours are over." My parents come in one last time to see me.

My mom and dad kiss me on the cheek and hugs me lightly. Before they leave the room Taehyung takes them aside.

"If you don't mind I can pick him up in the morning if you'd like, I wouldn't want to bother you with driving all the way up here since you both have to work tomorrow. My parents won't mind me taking him home in the morning, they barely ever notice when I'm home." He says in a low tone.

"Yes, your right, we both have work tomorrow, and it would be a hassle to find someone to fill in that spot while going and getting him home." My mom says I look at her in disbelief.

"Mom, that hurt, but he can take me home in the morning if I'm that big a hassle to put up with, plus I wouldn't want you to make up for that." I say looking at my parents, they nod in agreement.

Everyone leaves so I can rest. The nurses woke me up every two hours as the doctor requested, I wake up the next morning, put on the clothes my parents had brought for me last night. A nurse walks in with a breakfast tray a little while later. I eat what I want then cover the tray back up. A different nurse comes in with a wheelchair saying someone is here to pick me up, she helps me into the wheelchair, then rolls me out into the hallway.

We make our way to the lobby to find Taehyung waiting there. When I got up it was 6:00a.m. now its 8:30a.m. Taehyung walks up to me and takes the place where the nurse once stood. I'm not complaining, I get to sit while being pushed around, because I can't use crutches because of my back. A few minutes into the walk to the car Taehyung's voice drifts down to me.

"The doctor gave me your pain medication along with your back brace. They're already in the car. He said you need to take your meds when we get to your house." We get to the car, he helps me out of the wheelchair and into the car.

He folds up the wheelchair and puts it into the backseat. He comes around, gets in, and cranks it. For most of the car ride its a unusually comfortable silence.
