One Mistake is all it Took

Hospital Visits

I watch the doorway waiting for my mother. God what do I tell her. She must have found out. They probably went through my phone and called to inform her what had happened. She's probably been worried sick. That's probably either how they identified me or my ID which was in my wallet.. Along with my phone. Soon enough a woman in a flowery blouse and jeans came through the door. My mom. She had her brown hair in a bun and pearl earrings on. She wore her pink lipstick and her normal eyeliner.
"Oh my baby boy. How are you? What happened?" She exclaims looking at me like she did when I was little and scraped my knees on the tar.
"I'm fine Mom. It was just a little car accident. I'll be fine." I say shrugging my shoulders. I feel bad actually. My Mom must have been worried and I am acting like nothing happened.
"The nurse out there told me you weren't cooperating with her. You need to tell me about that girl. Right now you are the only one who can identify her. Mason. Who is she?" My mother asks. She looks rather concerned. And the nurse told my mom I wasn't cooperating? Wow.
"Some girl. I was bringing her home. I mean she isn't just some girl. She's a girl I met the night before the accident." I respond. I can tell my voice is getting a little scratchy and I try my best to use it as an excuse. "Well the nurse told me to rest.. So I am going too because I don't feel good and I don't want the Morphine to wear of before I go to sleep." I start to turn over but my mom appears on the other side of my bed.
"Mason. I'm serious. Do you know where her parents are? Her last name? Anything?" My mom asks once again trying to get the truth. The thing she doesn't get is.. I did tell the truth. I met her the night before and I have no clue who her parents are or anything so I don't know what she expects.
"Mom. That's all I have. What do you want from me? I barely know anything about the girl. Right now I am seriously hoping she is okay though. I'm really worried about her mom and if I knew her parents or anybody.. I would have already told you!" I yell. Right then the Nurse pops her nosey head back into my room.
"Excuse me. Mason. Jane. There are two teenage girls here to speak to Mason but they would like to talk to him alone." She says gesturing my mom to leave the room. Two teenage girls? Hm.. Who would be here to see me and speak to me in private? When my mom leaves the room she waves and blows a little kiss and I just smile and nod my head. I hear the nurse talking outside the door but she shut it a little bit so I can't really tell what she is saying... But soon enough two teenage girls come strolling through the door. A brunette and a blonde. They are both wearing jeans and a T-shirt with phones and Starbucks in their hands.
"Mason. We need to talk to you." They both say taking a few steps closer towards my bed.
"Hi. Who are you guys?" I say letting out a little chuckle.
"Mia's friends." They reply in unison once again.
"You can identify her right? I'm sure she'll be fine. I mean that's what the nurse told me and it was an accident. Where are her parents?" I ask sitting up once again wincing at the pain that shoots through my entire body.
"Yeah. We were at the party a few weeks ago. Mia got drunk and went home with you. God knows what happened after that. Anyway we saw her face on the news and decided to come down here. Yes we can identify her. I wanted to know what you knew about her." The brunette says.
"I know nothing about that girl. Only her name and that's it. I didn't mean for any of this to happen. It was an accident." I say readjusting myself in my bed.
"So you're saying you nearly killed a girl you barely know?" The brunette asks sipping on her Starbucks.
"I didn't mean too. It was an accident. Go tell the nurse you can identify her and leave me alone." I say shooing them away with my hands. They give me dirty looks and stroll out of the room whispering to each other. Finally. I can rest. God damn. This is a hospital and I don't even have time to rest.
Soon enough i make myself sort of comfortable in this very very uncomfortable bed and fumble around for the remote. I want to watch tv. As I put on Family Guy.. I feel my eyes start to get heavy. I feel so relaxed and before I knew it.... I was sleeping.
