He Saved Me

Chapter twenty seven

Read authors note! IMPORTANT

"Everything seems to be going smoothly. If it continues like this then we can hopefully get you out of here tomorrow" The doctor says and I nod, smiling.

"Thank you so much doctor" I say and he smiles, walking out.

"Oh thank god" I say closing my eyes.

"I can't take this tiny little room anymore. I've barely moved" I say shifting next to Mason.

"I know Le, but you need to rest. Those ribs aren't going to heal while you overwork yourself" He laughs.

"I know. But I'm fine. My ribs just hurt a little. I just need to get out of here" I sigh.

It's just Mason and I right now. I made Ellie, Brooks and Christine go to the party tonight. I tried to get Mason to go but he refused, stating that he 'didn't want to deal with Samantha's bullshįt'. I'll admit, it was really funny. Right now we are sitting in my bed, eating frozen yogurt Mason had gotten. We are watching a movie as well as making small talk.

"Um, hey. Thank you Mas" I place my spoon down, turning to him.

"What for?" He asks placing some cookies and creme froyo in his mouth.

"For always being so supportive and loving. You have barely left my side the whole time I've been here. I mean, you gave up your social life for the past two days and I know that you will do the same until my ribs are healed at least. It's different from what I'm used to and I'm so thankful. I really, truly am. Thank you so much for everything Mason. I don't think I tell you enough. I love you" I say, hugging him.

"I'll always be here for you Leah. I love you too" He says, kissing my temple.

"Hi, Leah. I have a quick question" A nurse says coming into my room, holding my chart.

"I was wondering if you would be interested in transferring to a shared room. The cost would go down and you should hopefully be here for not much longer" She says and I nod.

"Yes, please. I will gladly take it" I say causing her to smile.

"Great, we will bring you there soon" She gives me a soft smile and leaves.

"So much good news today" I say smiling. Now the bill hopefully won't be as bad. It's still going to be painfully high but with the price for the room to decrease will be amazing.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm glad you feel that way" He smiles, realization flashing across his face.

"What? whats wrong?" I ask, concerned.

"I left something in my car. Don't switch rooms without me. I'll be right back" He says sprinting out of the room.

Shortly after two nurses come in. "Hi Leah, we are just going to take everything to your new room and then we will be back for you" One nurse says grabbing a vase and some other gifts from people.

Before today I never realized that there are people who actually care for me. Obviously the Whites do, they got me flowers and ice cream. Christine, Brooks and Ellie got me flowers and a bear, a bunch of guys from the football team pitched in a sent me a card and a bear, a couple people from school that I had spoken to a couple times gave Mason cards for me. Grace and her family sent me an edible arrangement, card and bear. All the love and support from everyone has been insane.

"Yeah, I'm just waiting for someone to get back" I say and they nod, walking out.

"I'm back" Mason says with an even breath. His chest is moving up and down, still wearing the same red shirt that he caught me checking him out in earlier. The one that made me extremely happy once he asked me to be his girlfriend.
