I wake up in a room. Everything was white and it smelled... a hospital. I realized. I panicked when Jaden wasn't there. For some reason, the machine started beeping rapidly.
Jaden. He walks in a moment later, glancing at the machine, you see he looks worried.
"Jaden!" You try to get up to hug him, but he won't let you stand up, instead he crouches down to hug you. A nurse comes in. "Oh, you're awake." She says, then quickly leaves, writing something on her clipboard.
"I feel like crap." I mumble. Jaden laughs.
He has the best laugh... god what was I thinking?
I quickly push away the thought. "What happened?"
"Well," Jaden started, "you passed out from low blood sugar."
"Oh." I mumble. That's never happened before. "When can I go home?" Jaden shrugged. I thought for a minute.
Mom. "Oh crap I gotta text my mom." I go to my back pocket, and scold myself. Of coarse I wouldn't have my jeans. I sigh.
After a few hours, the doctor calls my mom. She's at work so she can't come, but they let me go.
"I can give you a drive." Jaden says. I shake my head.
"Can I at least walk you?" I hesitate, then nodded. We started walking.
On the walk, a car came next to the curb. They roll down the passenger's window. And I see Josh. "I can give you a lift." He says. Before I could decline, Jaden clenched his jaw. "No thanks." He mumbles. He grabs my hand and continue walking, Josh follows. "Aw come on beautiful, I can drop Jaden off, me and you can go to my house." He winks and I cringe. I tug on Jaden's hand and pick up the past. "I will go away if you tell me too, Princess." Josh says, again, following.
"Go away."
"Ouch. Didn't think you'd take me up on that offer. Anyway, I'm a man of my word. I'll be back though, Princess." He clicks his tongue and rolls the window up. I roll my eyes as he drives away.
"What a douche." Jaden nodded. We arrive home and I hug Jaden. "Thanks." I mumble in his ear.
He pays my back sort of awkwardly. I kiss his cheek and walk in.
I see mom sitting on the couch. I want to crawl in a hole. "Where have you been?! I was worried sick then I get a call that you're in the hospital? And was that a guy?"
I sigh. Great. "It's complicated."
"Well I've got all the time." I then notice a bottle of tequila in her hand.
Double great. Mom threw the bottle above my head, I dodged it and fell to the floor. "ARE YOU CRAZY?!" I scream. Although she clearly was.
"I'm going to bed. Clean that up." She walked to her room. I sat on the couch, burying my head in my knees. I'd rather be anywhere but here.
The doorbell rings. I quickly wipe away my tears and go answer it. I open the door and see Jaden...
