Other side of town

36

I was sleeping in the chair that was in the room when I heard something strange. I woke up and there was a male nurse that was holding his through gasping for air and she was just staring at him. He stumbled out of the room and when the door closed she said
" oops "
And she sounded like she had just woken up. I looked at the time and it was 6 in the morning
" hey you ok "
" yeah I was having a bad dream and he kinda scared me when I woke up so I hit I'm in the throat "
" still packing quite the punch I see "
" yeah "
She laughed a little and I walked over to the bed and sat down and we talked for a while then the nurse came in and I had to step out again.

" so when did they say you should be able to go "
She looked at me and shrugged
" well I hope it's soon because I miss seeing you at school "
When the words left my mouth I felt like s little kids saying they missed there best friend because they were home sick the day before. She had a little smile on her face and she said
" I mean this is no castle or anything but it's better then school "
I looked at her for a second to long. My phone buzzed
" what is it "
" my mom she said I have to go home so I can get ready for school tomorrow you know home work and all that "
She looked sad and said
" ok "
I got up and started to walk towards the door and I said
" don't worry I'll be back tomorrow after school "
" so I can do your home work right "
I laughed a little
" yeah how did you know ... later A "

When I got home and I was working on my home work and I actually wrote her name for an answer.
" Dominic hunny "
I woke up and I had fallen asleep when I was doing my work at the table and my mom woke me up
" yeah sorry "
" let's get you to bed "
I nodded and went up to bed.

" hey "
Seth said as he sat down at the table
" no food "
He said as he put some fries in my mouth
" ummm not hungry "
" k "
He said and continued to devour his food.

When I got home I ran up the stairs and almost tripped the entire time. When I pulled a hoodie over my head I was hit with the smell of her and I froze. I forgot she borrowed it one day after school when her clothes were dirty. I took a deep inhale of the scent and then I ran back down and drove to the hospital.
I opened the door quietly in case she was sleeping and she was.
