my summer romance

Stay with me

             Stay with me
           >>>>>>>>>>°×°<<<<<<<<<<<

Right now I can't stop the flow of tears down my face. I take his left hand in my hands, inwardly regretting ever playing hard to get, walking away from him.

I wish for a second chance.

"Stay with me Morgan, if only I went with you to the studio, I would have prevented this from happening to you. Now you're in so much pain and I can't feel it. Please, stay with me and I won't leave you. I won't walk away, just stay. Say something please? Morg, the kids and I can't live without you. I love..."

I'm being cut off when he squeezes my hands slightly. I get up and move closer to him. Watching him closely as he tries to sit up. I stop him with my hands .
I press the emergency bell to signal the nurses.

Soon a nurse and the doctor walk into the ward. And begin to check things and touch things .

"Is he gonna he fine?" I sniff in.

"Oh yes ma'am he's okay, just needs rest right now to allow the medications function and he needs food" the doctor places a hand on my shoulder before leaving along with the nurse.

The kids burst in with some lady trailing along . I'm guessing she's Sally .

"Mom this is Sally from dad's work" Ash chips in.

Exactly. She had to be so pretty

"Dad!" They say in unison as the realise he is up.

He chuckles slightly, trying not to move too much. I help place the food on a tray for him to eat.

"Chris, you're h-here" he chokes out .

"Of course, i'd never leave" I place my hand on his arm . The one without the strings.

The kids and Sally cooed an aww in the background making us laugh.

Okay, I like her .

"Kids, y'all have to head home. I'll spend the night with dad and we'd come home tomorrow. Uhm Sally? Could you drop them off?" I ask nicely with a warm smile .

"Oh! of course Chris" she agrees.

They each place kisses on Morgan and i's faces before leaving. I hug Sally and thank her again. When they left, I returned to sit on the bed beside Morgan to help him eat.

"So why were you crying?" His Question made me freeze with wide eyes.

"You heard me?" I feel my face heat up.

"Partially , yes" he smirks , chewing on a salad.

I playfully hit him, forgetting he's in pains. My bad.

"Go on, tell me how much you love me" he nags like a toddler.

"You're crazy, and I don't love you , don't flatter yourself" I say propping a fry into my mouth avoiding his gaze.

"That's not what you said Few minutes ago Chris" he's eyes darken,his voice husky .

"I, I- I don't know what to say, but I was really frightened. I can't imagine losing you, I just—" he cuts me off by pulling me into a hug. I let my tears fall again and drench up His hospital clothes.

We watch tv and I show him a clip on YouTube how I found Out about his accident. "You famous Morg"
He glared at me playfully.

After talking and watching family guy, I notice him falling asleep .

"Stay with me Chris" and with that he falls asleep ,the quiet room filled with faint snores from Morgan making me smile.
"I'm here Morg, good night" I place a kiss on his forehead. Then scoot him so there'd be room for me on the bed.

-

A harsh light pierces through the  curtains in the hospital ward, interrupting my sleep. I rub my eyes to clear my vision but notice a weight on my shoulder. I turn to meet a sleeping Morgan with his head on my shoulder. His face so calm and void of any stress, I take my time to take in his features .

He begins to move and starts to wake up.

"Good morning, sleep well?" I smile down at him.

"You stayed...morning Chris and yes, of course I did, did you?"

I nod my head yes, I help him sit up , then ring the emergency bell to inform the nurses he's awake and ready to be discharged.

"I'll be back, heading to the food court to get breakfast. Eggs?" I turn around facing him waiting for an answer but he just smiles at me.

Making me shift a little. "What?" I question him.

"I'm just glad you stayed and yes, eggs" he still had the smile on his face.

I just smiled and nodded before heading out. By the time I got back to the room, he had been released from all the strings and had changed into new clothes which I'm guessing Sally brought from his trailer.

We have breakfast and watch tv . Afterwards, I sign him out and receive his medicines prescribed by the doctor from the pharmacy. In the car I feel my body tense up as I remember a car accident got him here . Scared to start the engine I just freeze in my seat.

I notice warm hands cover my shaky hands, "it's okay, I'm fine now" his voice soothing as always.

"You get me so much" before I could wrap my head around what I was doing I had already leaned in and placed a tender kiss on his cheek.

Shy-faced, I quickly return to my position and drive out of the hospital. As expected, the car ride was silent but Morgan kept trying to start a conversation which I awkwardly ended each time he tried.

Ugh I feel like a teenage girl ...
