Married at First Sight (Daniel Seavey)

Hospital Trip

The bus took off a little while ago and the boys all called dibs on their own beds. Zach and Jack are playing fortnite in their bunks. Corbyn is texting Christina on the couch. Jonah is reading at the little table. Daniel and I are on the other couch facing Corbyn.

Me and Daniel are laying down on the couch, me between his legs. We're watching a movie until the bus comes a quick stop. I fall off the couch and Daniel is on top of me in seconds. Corbyn manages to stay on his couch, Jonah's book goes flying and two thuds can be heard from the back of the bus.

"Shit." I mumble. I rubbed my temples with my right arm, seeing as my left arm was being pinned to my chest by Daniel who was on top of me. Daniel sits up a little and takes a second. He gets off me.

"Sorry." He apologizes.

"It's alright." I say. He sticks his hand out and I take it. I get up but stumble and almost fall. Daniel catches me and sits me on the couch.

"Did you hit your head?" He asks inspecting the top of my head.

"Yeah, but I should be fi- OW!" I scream as he touches a sensitive spot. "Fine."

"We should get you checked out." He says pulling his hand back, it had some blood on it. Corbyn walks past us to the driver. Daniel puts his hand were I'm bleeding and applying pressure.

"What's going on up there!" I hear Jack yell.

"I don't know but I'm gonna find out." Jonah says getting up and following Corbyn.

"Can someone get me some towels or something?" Daniel calls out.

"Why?" Zach asks.

"Because Alyssa is bleeding and that's something you do when someone is bleeding." He says kinda angrily. I hear running and things shuffling. Eventually I see a hand fly to Daniel with napkins. I feel the fabric and Daniels hands still on the back of my head.

"Corbyn? What's going on?" Daniel asks.

"There was a dog in the road. But we should be good now." He says coming back.

"Yeah, how about getting us to a hospital? Alyssa's head is bleeding." He says.

"I'm fine." I say.

"I'd rather be safe than sorry." He says.

"I'll tell the driver." Corbyn says.

"Really, Daniel, I'm fine. I just wanna lay down." I say.

"That's literally the exact opposite of what you should do." I hear Jonah say.

"Yeah, What he said." Daniel said to me.

After a semi-short drive to the hospital, I start to stand up with Daniel still putting pressure on the spot. I fall back on the couch.

"I'll just go get someone." Jonah says with a worried look.

"Are you feeling light headed?" Daniel asks.

"No, and if you would give me a minute I could get up myself." I argue. I try standing again and fall again. Daniel moves his hands to catch me.

"Please just sit down." Daniel says slowly helping me sit down, his hands on my arms.

"Fine." I huff. Daniel goes back to holding pressure on my head.

A man comes on the bus with gloves and a gown.

"You the girl with the bleeding head?" He asks.

"Yeah, and I'm fine." I say glaring at Daniel.

"I'll be the judge of that." The doctor says. "I'm doctor Hunter, May I?" He asks as he gets closer. I nod and Daniel moves his hands. "Woah, what did you do?" He asks amazed at the sight.

"Bus came to a sudden stop and she fell on the floor." Daniel said.

"You've got a hell of a cut. Let's get you inside and fix you up." The doctor says.

"She can't stand." Daniel says.

"Yes I can." I say.

"With the amount of blood you lost? I don't think you should be." He says. "You her husband?" 

"Yes, actually. How did you know?" Daniel says surprised.

"You argue like an old couple." He replies.

"OH MY GOD! THAT'S WHAT I JUST SAID TO JACK!" I hear Zach laugh. Jack starts laughing too.

"Do you wanna carry her in? And I'll support her head." He suggests to Daniel. He nods in agreement. Daniel picks me up and Dr Hunter supports my head. Once we're off the bus Corbyn, Zach and Jack follow.

Once we are in the hospital, I'm set on a gurney and sat up right. I'm taken to a room, the boys are instructed to stay outside and Daniel goes to get cleaned up.

"How long have you two been married?" He asks.

"Well, that's a funny and kinda long story." I say.

"We got a while." He says putting the IV in my arm. I look away.

"Well, we got married two days ago." I say.

"Congratulations!" He says.

"Haha, thanks. But there's a twist." I say as he goes behind me.

"Oo, I love a good twist." He pulls my hair up.

"We just met." I said.

"Really?" He asks. "You could have fooled me." He said. "Your going to feel a pinch."

I feel the pinch as Daniel walks in. "Hey, how's it going?" He asks.

"Fine, lots of needles. But fine." He sits down in a rolly chair and takes my hand.

"She's gonna need a few stitches, but she should be fine." Dr Hunter says.

"Good, good." Daniel says. "The guys went to go get some pizza."

"Jacks idea?" I ask.

"Yeah." Daniel laughs.

"Owww." I say.

"Sorry, this is gonna be a little uncomfortable." Dr Hunter says. I squeezed Daniels hand.

"Sorry." I say.

"It's okay. I'm here." He says.

After 30 long excruciating minutes it's finally over.

"Your all good to go! Just be careful the next few days. If you start feeling drowsy or dizzy go to the nearest hospital. Okay?" Dr Hunter says.

"Okay, thanks Doc." I say. After a while we realize that we should probably record an update for the show. Once that's done, I get released and we get back on the bus.

"You fixed up?" Corbyn asks.

"Yeah. Now I was told that we had pizza." I say changing the subject.

"Yeah, we saved some for you guys." Jonah said. I start to walk to the pizza when Daniel grabs my arm.

"Are you okay?" He asks me.

"Yeah." I say.

"Are you sure?"

I take a minute, then reply. "No, but I'd rather not start crying in front of the guys."

"When we get to the hotel, do you wanna talk?" He asks rubbing his thumb over my knuckles.

"Yeah. That'd be nice." I say my voice cracking.

He pulls me into a hug. "It's gonna be okay." He rubs my back.

"I know. I'm just scared." I breathe out shakily.

"Me too. Me too." He says.

I pull back, "let's go eat some pizza now."

He laughs. "Yeah."
