"I've come to offer you something no one else can."

The accident took away my legs. Paralyzed me from waist down for the rest of my miserable existence. It happened instantly, the doctors said. The moment his car smashed into mine my lower spine was done for. Ripped to shreds. They said I was lucky they didn't have to amputate. This is being lucky?

"Give me permission to help you. To change your life. Technology has come a long way. You would be amazed at the things I can do."

It wasn't fair. The other driver chose to drink until his vision was blurry. He chose to get behind the wheel and drive under the influence and over the speed limit. Why was I punished? Why did he get to walk away with only a concussion while my life was shot to hell? It wasn't fair.

"You sign that dotted line there and I swear to you that you will walk again. In fact, you'll do more than just walk."

My life had just started, I had just turned 22. I needed my legs back. I needed to get out of this damned chair.

"Thank you. Thank you for this chance. You won't regret this, [Name], I promise."

Though even this is better than 8 months ago so I'll take the slight improvement. One other person's lapse of judgement has altered my life in way's I'll never really understand but this is my life now. I know I'll be okay. I have to be. 16 other people weren't okay. I was.

As Cameron spends his weeks with Aria, her walls crumble and she lets him in, showing him the darker side to her life and when he embraces it with open arms, things couldn't be more perfect.

Arianna Jo Coulter hates starting a new job, at twenty-five she'd been working as an ER nurse in her hometown since she graduated from nursing school. The problem with that is, she knew everyone coming in and out, making her job hard at times. One of the hardest things about being in a small town is relationships and when they end. Ari started dating Eric in college, at first he was so sweet and caring. After she graduated, got a job, he continued with his schooling due to his studying to be a doctor, they just didn't see each other as often. Eric started changing, yelling all the time, putting his hand on her in anger. So before it could go to far, Ari breaks up with him, decides it's time for a change, and applies to several different hospital's in bigger towns far from home. Problem is before she finds out if she gets a new job, her parents and younger sister are killed in a wreck, hit by a drunk driver. Now Ari is even more determined to move away. Harry Edward Styles loves his job, being the youngest doctor ever hired at John Hopkins University Hospital is something he'll never take for granted. He worked his ass off in medical school to graduate early, doing his clinicals a year before most of the others in his class. Everyone in his family knew his dream was to become the head of the ER someday, and at thirty-two, and two years of being considered one of the top doctor's at the hospital he was well on his way making his dream come true. The only thing missing is love, yeah he dates, on occasion, but nothing serious. Harry wants that heart racing, breath stealing, feeling you get when you know you meet the ONE. Until that happens he has his job and few friends. This story is 100% mine. I'll try my best to make any and all medical terms as real as possible. If I get any wrong I'm sorry. This is my first attempt at writing anything relating to this subject. Thank you for reading if you do. All the love, TopazRoze.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure I learned that when I got my license! Did they teach you not to speed?!" Now I pushed his chest causing him to stumble back. "What the hell back off Barbie! I was looking where I was going and I was not speeding. Sorry if I was going to fast for you granny." "Oh you did not just call me granny." I yelled. Then I got my cell out and called no other then Aiden. He could fix this and fix this guys face into a different form. "Aiden some jerk just crashed into me and then decided it would be smart to mess with me and yell into my face. Come here I need you." I whined sounding sad to get my brother more pissed. "Be right there." Then he hung up. Haha this boy is in for it. "You are going to pay for this. I'm calling the police." "Oh yes have fun and would you be a dear and ask for the chief because I know my dad would love to know his baby got smashed into." I smiled. I win.
