"Everyone knows about us?" I sit up.
"Yeah."
My phone starts to ring and Marshas name pops up on the screen.
"You should probably answer that." John says.
"Hello." I say groggily.
"Hey."
"What happened?"
"Well I threw a party and I got someone to bring drugs because I thought it would be fun. But it back fired and a lot of people were hurt. Including you. Then a fire. I'm just so sorry."
"Marsha. Don't talk to me ever again."
"But y/n I-"
"Goodbye." I hang up the phone and look back at John.
"I know that seemed harsh but I just can't be friends with her anymore. Anyone who puts my life in danger isn't my friend."
"I'm sorry y/n. Well the doctor said your well enough to go home if you want to head to my place or something."
"Yeah that would be nice....how did everyone find out?"
"Oh well all your friends came here to see if you were ok and when they saw me here they kind of put things together. I lost my job and your suspended for 5 months. I know I'm just throwing this on you, and I'm sorry."
"I kinda expected that to happen. I just want to get out of this hospital and be in a bed next to you. Hiding our relationship was causing to much stress on me and I couldn't take it anymore. Let's just go home." I look up at John.
He looks back at me and smiles.
We rode in the car just happy to be in each other's company. I don't think the coma did anything harmful to me. But, I just wanted to start over. I just wanted to start over my life with John.
"John." I say.
"Yeah babe." He reached over and held my hand in the car.
"I want to live with you. I want to wake up next to you everyday. I want to make you breakfast. I want to kiss you goodnight. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." I start to tear up.
"I love you y/n. And I want to spend the rest of my life with you too."
