Park's POV:
I couldn't sleep. I didn't wanna go to sleep! I wanted to see her again. She was so beautiful, and her eyes I feel like I could've gotten lost. They were golden and mesmerizing. Her hands were so tiny yet slid just right into mine. She was so small yet so big. The way she toughened through her tears when stating why she was here. The way she had the confidence and the courage to come back, and stand on her tippy toes to give me a kiss on the cheek. Her lips were soft and warm. Where did she come from? Was she the one who was gonna save me? Thank you God for answering my prayer. I wonder what she's doing? Then suddenly I hear a light knock on the door. It had to be early in the morning now. Probably still dark out. I crawled quietly out of bed and opened the door. It was Florence! Just the girl I wanted to see! "Hallo wieder," she whispered. I giggled quietly. "I know you said hello but what did you say afterward?" I quietly chuckled. She laughed at me silently. "I said hello again," she remarks laughing still. Then she pulls me to her and gives me a big hug in my doorway. We sat there for a long time. Just breathing, feeling the movements of our body as we took in and withdrew each breath, and listened to our hearts beat calmly. She grabbed my hand guiding me out the room. "Where are we going?" I asked. She placed her finger over her lip. We ran quietly down the long hall, and at the end there was a bay window I hadn't stopped to notice. I sat on the large windowsill and she laid into my lap. I ran my fingers through her short hair, and stared at the moonlit sky. She stared at me. When I'd finally pretended to notice I asked,"What are you staring at?" She immediately sat up. She smiled again and oh did that make my heart melt. "I'm staring at you," she pretended to be grumpy. I giggled at her and then took her hand. We stared out the window together. She looked beautiful in the moonlight. Her eyes glistening in the radiated light from the stars. Her complexion was spotless and beautiful. She was just...wow. She looked back at me. The suddenly I met her eyes. She began to lean in closer. I couldn't take to anymore! I scooped her up of the windowsill, wrapped my arm around her small waist, and kissed her. It took a couple of seconds before she let her body relax and gave in. I don't know how long we were standing there. But I didn't care I didn't wanna leave. She suddenly let go and hugged me tightly. I hugged her back. The night had to come to and end though. We held hands back to my door. I kissed her forehead again. "Good night," I whisper to her. "Good night Park," she whispered back. Then she was gone into the night once again. I shut the door softly behind me. Then I immediately hit the pillow and went to sleep. Good night princess.Paisley's POV:
Three weeks later...
I'd spent most of my time now with Courtney. She would come into my room in the morning and eat breakfast with me. We talked quietly though because Miss Willow would still be sleeping. Then we'd go on our morning walk. Since I'm in the rehab stage I went from the IV machine, to a cane which I still currently am using. She said not too long from now I'll be able to walk by myself! I'm so excited...but at the same time I'm not. I don't wanna leave Courtney behind. She's the only person I trust. She said she'd still come visit me. She's the best! We also ate lunch together in the café! The smell reminded me of dreams when I'd imagined being a food critic and walking into a five star restaurant. I told her about that dream. She asked, "Don't you ever wanna leave New York?" I thought about it for a minute. "Actually yes I wanna live close to my brother," I excitedly said back. "You have a brother!" She got excited. "According to the nurse before I went under," I said back. "But you don't know him at all do you?" She asked. "No I...I don't but I think about what he's like," I happily said back. She grinned. I loved when she smiled. It made me love her even more. One afternoon we were sitting in the room playing monopoly on the bed. I was winning of course. I'm a board game queen. Another nurse walked into the room without knocking. Miss Willow powered off the Brad Paisley music she had playing, and we all stopped giggling at each other when she walked in. "Who are you?" Miss Willow asked her politely. She scanned all of us very long. "I'm here to speak to the child," she meanly demanded. "Well whatever it is you can say in front of all of us," Courtney quickly added. I'm assuming she saw the discomfort in my face. The nurse looked at me for reassurance and I nodded yes. "We are here to inform you Paisley Angelina Lockwood that your father made bail," she grinned. "You will be returning home to him when your rehabilitation is over," she then adds after my face was a ghostly white. "Child Perfective Services has dropped your case," she says firmly. Miss Willow and Courtney quickly rise and in sync they yell,"How in the fuck do you want her to go home?" The nurse looked ten times bitchier than when she walked in. "As the detectives had to they asked the father and he said she was defiant," she paused, "he claimed this was discipline that spiraled out of control trying to correct her." I got red in the face I was so pissed off. Then I couldn't take it anymore! "The dumb motherfucker did this to show me he can take advantage of me! He abuses me this isn't the first time! But let me guess you dumb fucks wouldn't understand that!" I yelled at her. They all turned to look at me. "Not my problem," she said finally and walked out of the room. After she walked out I began to tremble and cry.
Help me...
Park's POV:
I woke up in the morning. As soon as I woke up I smiled. It's another day that I get to see my princess. Just then I hear a knock on my door, but this time it wasn't light and dainty like hers. I rushed to the door and it was Arron. I immediately invited her in, but she handed me red clothes like the ones I had on and instructed me silently to change. Something was wrong but I didn't know what. I changed and went back to the door where she was standing. She still hasn't spoken. I was beginning to get scared. She looked upset. What was the matter? She guided me a different way this time. The door was hardwood so I couldn't see what I was walking into. She hugged me tightly before opening the door.
No...
