        My mind started to wake up but my eyes stayed closed. I can hear breathing next to me but where am I. I start to flutter my eyes open and I am blinded by light. It then clicks in my head. The hospital.

        I turn my head and see Katrina on her phone. "K-k-Kat"I mumble getting my voice back. Her eyes go wide as she turns to me. "Luna" she replies. Next thing I know she's hugging me basically on top of me. Eventually she gets off me and goes Back to her seat.

       "I've got to text Colby he just left with Sam to get some food" Katrina said unlocking her phone. That's when it all clicks everything. The whole Colby cheating the whole getting kidnapped and then what happened during that.

         "No do not text Colby please Kat I really don't want to see him. Just you please and maybe Elton and Mike. Just not Colby" I said to her. She nods and not even a minute later Elton and Mike bust through the door. 

         They both engulf me in hugs carefully though. That's when I realize all the bandages holy shit. How am I still alone after all this. "Is Gabe in jail or dead or did he get away again" I asked trying to stay calm as fear flowed through my body.

         "Dead" Mike said making me release the air I didn't realize I was holding. Kat then excused herself after looking at her phone I was curious but too drained to ask. 

          "How long did I sleep for? What time is it?" I asked the boys. "You've uh been asleep for 16 days, the doctors didn't know when you were going to wake up or if at all. No one gave up hope" Elton said to me . Holy shit that's a long tine I was shocked.

         After a few minutes of me talking' to the boy and Katrina being gone I heard a commotion. "Kat move let me see her now" I heard Colby's voice yell. Oh shit

          "Colby she doesn't want to see you" Kat replied back raising her voice back. "Kat please let me try please at least let me see with my own eyes that's she's okay" he replied his tone getting softer.

            Next thing I know Kat is walking back into the room with Colby on her tail. As soon as he sees me he started rushing towards me. "No stop don't touch me" I said just as he about reached me.

           "Luna Luna please let me hug you please talk me talk to you please. I love you" Colby said looking broken. But for my own good I could not believe that.

            "Stop with the act and leave. You don't have to pretend anymore so go" I said holding back the tears. Him and shea kissing played on repeat in my head.

             "But-" colby said before Mike cut him off "I think this is enough for today she just woke up". Colby glared at him and left.

               "Um actually would u all mind to all leave, I really just wanna be alone. Come back tomorrow" I said hoping they would do it without a fight. And luckily they did. I was hugged all around the 3 and then they left. I called the nurse in and asked for water and if she could turn the light off for me.

              After the nurse left it was just me. Me alone in my own thoughts. The tears started flowing out and I started shaking. Everything was hitting me at once.

              It was like a loop played in my mind. Colby cheating, getting taken, the what happened while I was getting taken. In that very moment I did not want to live anymore I just wanted to die. I couldn't handle it. I was broken. Seeing Colby was the final straw for me to really break.

              Did he honestly not love me? Why string me along? Yeah it would've hurt if he broke up with me. But it would not have hurt nearly close to how bad this does.

             More questions popped into my head but this time not about colby. If Gabe wanted me so bad, why did he let other guys take turns with me? I shuttered just thinking about that. That pain from that not only physically but mentally too.

            How am I supposed to get over all this? Getting over Colby will probably be easier than getting over my sexual assault. It just sat there and cried because tomorrow I know I'm going to have to act like I'm fine to everyone.

           For sure I know I am not going back to the traphouse. Luckily now that Gabe is gone I can go back to my apartment. I've been paying for it for a while without anyone knowing. Colby thought I sold it. He wanted me to completely live at the traphouse, but I couldn't let go of my first place or my own first place that was completely mine.

            Now that I was awake I didn't feel at risk to die anymore just some severe pain. I hit the nurses button. The nurse came in "how soon can i be discharged" I asked the nurse.

            She looked at her clip board "if we run a few tests and it all checks out then u can go right after. Would you like me to run the tests now? I don't think there's going to be a problem you've been a miracle straight from the start" the nurse replied to me.

            I nodded my head yes and let her take the tests. After an hour and a half the tests were done and it was now 5 o clock. The nurse turned and looked at me "hun I'll get your discharge papers. No running or lifting. Careful with bending over. Don't forget to eat with your pills or to eat in general. Careful with the stitches in places. And come back in a few weeks to get the stitches out." She said and went to get the discharge papers.

          After everything that happened I have 4 broken ribs and 4 more being bruised. Stitches in 6 different places, also a cracked collar bone. I have pulled muscles in my back. Joints in my hips had to be relocated along with my left shoulder. 4 bullet holes in my body 2 of which had pierced or ripped through stuff it hasn't. Nose had to be put back into place. I also have a fractured wrist. And my uterus had a tear in it and also had some infection. The doctors are unsure if I'll be able to have kids. I've had 5 surgeries  total in this first 4 days of being in the hospital.

         What a long list. After filling out what I had to fill out. The nurse who I learned is names Sheryl gave me cloths. She gave me a pair of leggings and a sweatshirt along with some sandals. After I changed I thanked her and grabbed my phone which Kat gave me earlier and headed out. I called for a Uber to my apartment.

         I plopped on my couch with a bag of popcorn and turned on a movie. Happy to be away from the hospital and also happy to be in my own space.
