Ego (Justin Bieber Love Story)

Chapter Fifty-Five

I winced in pain as I felt a searing burning sensation through my arm and stomach. My head felt like it was going to explode. What happened? The last thing I remember is picking up the trash with Christian. I felt around, I think I might literally explode if I opened my eyes. I was in a abed. I must have had a couple drinks or something. Ugh why was I in so much pain. I writhed around a little man this hurt. It was like someone was repeatedly stabbing me with something. Oh my god, I remember now.

My eyes shot open in fear. I was in a hospital bed, the curtains were pulled around me. I was alone but at least I was safe. I tried to lift my sore arm but I felt like someone was ripping my muscle fibre by fibre. I was in a pair of hospital pyjamas. I looked at the chair, there in a plastic bag were my blood soaked clothes. I gently lifted my top. There was a horrible big scar covering my whole stomach, going just underneath my belly button, it must be at least 20cm long. I put the top back down gently, the cool air was making it sting. It had been stapled together, it was horrible.

I felt tears prick in my eyes. I couldn’t move my right arm so I used my left hand to peel the covers back to take a look at my wrist. It was wrapped tightly in a bandage but there was a blood stain. A tear rolled down my cheek.

‘Ugh stop being such a wimp’ I said shakily to myself. ‘shit happens’

So I got slashed? It’s in the past now and I’m alive. That’s all that matters. This rarely ever happens, I mean they were some douche bags high and drunk. It won’t happen again. I’m safe now.

No matter how many times I tried to tell myself that the tears kept on falling. I was in pain and I was going to be left with ugly scars. I was ugly because of them, what did I even do?

I saw a tear fall on my bandage. I heard the curtain swish around and saw Demi standing there. Her eyes were red and puffy and she had make-up all down her face. I just looked up at her still crying and she walked over to the bed, sat next to and put her arms around me.

‘Thank god you’re okay’ she sniffed as she held me tight. ‘Molly Fraser you gave me quite a scare!’ she laughed softly.

I smiled and wiped my eyes with my good hand. ‘What happened to me?’ I asked shakily, trying to stop myself crying.

‘Well you passed out because of the pain, but they slashed your wrist, getting all your veins and across your stomach. They ran away when they realised what they had done. That’s when Christian found you. He had got the next lift after yours down. He called an ambulance then called me, so I ran down and we stayed with you till the ambulance came’ I could see pain in her eyes. ‘You lost 3 pints of blood and you only have 10 in your body. Molly we thought we’d lost you. But the people in the ambulance were awesome and you’ve been in here ever since.’ she smiled wiping tears from my face.

‘Wait what day is it?’ I asked confused.

‘The 19th’ she smiled.

‘I was out for 9 days?’

She nodded, ‘Molly we thought we were gonna lose you’ she looked down.

‘Well you didn’t’ I smiled lifting her face with my good hand. ‘come on now you think you can get rid of me that easy?’ I laughed softly. She grinned at me.

‘Has anyone phoned Justin?’ I said softly.

‘we’ve tried, Molly he was the first person I phoned when we were in the ambulance, I know he’s in Antarctica but that boy would run here for you if he had to’ she smiled. ‘But due to him being in Antarctica, we can’t get through to him. I’m sorry’ she looked down.

‘Its okay’ I said half-heartedly. ;I mean I don’t need him here, besides he has his career’ I smiled. ‘but I have you and …where’s Christian?’ I looked about.
