Not Who You think I Am •shyland•

Chapter 12

Ryland's POV

Today was the day I get out of the hospital. It's easier to breathe but the doctor still wants me to say home until it doesn't hurt anymore when I breathe or move.

This time I wasn't going to stay at Shane's because my parents wanted to see me. They haven't seen me in like a week. Shane didn't really tell me who was going to pick me up.

[Ryland] hey sorry to bother you but are you picking me up?

[Shane] hey, your not bothering me. And yes I am picking you up

[Ryland] ok just wondering

[Shane] :)

Well at least that's settled now. Maybe while he's driving me home he'll tell me about James.

My doctor was explaining everything to Shane. Now Shane wasn't taking care of me and he didn't want to explain everything to my parents so he just recorded the conversation.

I mean if you think about it, it's pretty smart.

"Ready to go" Shane smiled

"Yup" I replied

We walked to Shane's car. He was helping me the whole way.

"So your mom sounded like she wanted to rip my head off when she first called me" he laughed

"That's what happens when something bad happens to her kids." I said while we pulled up to my neighborhood. Shane looked confused

"The first one on the right" I announced

"Thank you" he said, my mom being my mom was outside waiting for me. When we pulled up she wait until we were parked then she helped me out of the car. Shane got my thing from the hospital.

"I hope you know that I can walk. Somewhat" I told her

"I know but I just want to help you" she said. Apparently my dad told Shane where to put everything and Shane left, he said that he need to get home.

So the doctor said that I had to stay home for two days and I have to stay out of gym. Thank god for that.

Shane's POV

I had to get home, James just texted me. I think he's been watching me. He sent me a photo of Ryland and I from when I first brought Ryland to my house. Ryland and I had similar problems except Dylan still hurts Ryland. James just messes with my head. Hopefully it doesn't turn into more than just that tho.

*Next Day*

I knew that Ryland wasn't going to be at school but I didn't know it was going to be a living hell.

Lunch finally rolled around

"How's Ryland" Andrew whispered so no one would hear beside Garrett and I

"He's okay. He's been texting me, he said he might be able to come tomorrow. He's fine breathing but moving is a little hard." I said

"I mean that's good, right?" Andrew replies

[James] hey baby 😘

[Shane] James what do you want?😒

[James] why can't it be how it used to be

[Shane] what happened when we were together was horrible

[James] why do you hate me baby
