All you need is love

Chapter 5

-Bella-

"Uuhhmm..pink? Blue? Off-white? uhm-"

"Black- just black," I said with irritation cutting off the nurse.

"uh yeah sure, okay" 

I gave in giving the brunette nurse a smile as she walked out the bright room with her clipboard in hand. Straying my attention to my bandaged arm when I heard an unfamiliar yet familiar voice.

"Hey! sorry about your hand" he said with a nervous smile rubbing he back of his neck.

I scanned him for a little while remembering the events that occurred and im assuming me staring blankly at him gave him the idea that I was pissed. When in actuality I wasn't

"Uh, I get it you know, if like, you don't wanna see me and if you want-"

"The flowers," I said cutting him off and nodding my head toward the bouquet of roses he was holding in his hand

"Oh- OH! these? oh they're for you I felt bad about the whole ya' know breaking your arm thing"

"Flowers huh?" I extended my arms signalling him to give them to me "Bit of a cliche don't cha' think?"

"uh, I could return them if you'd like to get something different what-" he spake as he fumbled with his words

"Ha, you're a blabbermouth aren't you? No biggie though I only broke my arm. You didn't put me in a coma. Now as soon as this damned lady wraps this thing, you can help by finding me something that I can draw with"

"I uhm have uhm a silver sharpie? I-if that work I mean I could find something else-"

"Whats your name?" 

"Allen...short for Allensworth."  he was looking down as if he was ashamed of his name

"Bella...short for Bartholomew "

"REALLY"

"Ha. No."

Eventually, the nurse walked in to kill my barbarous laughter.

"This shouldn't take very long but this might hurt a-"

"OW! FOR THE LOVE OF-"

Allen jumped up in alarm hmmm guess linebacker-defensive mindset applies to everything

"im all good Ally"

"Ally?"

"Oh, that's not going away once I make a nickname it sticks and that it- OW!"

"What was that again?" he said smirking at the fact that I was in pain

"Glad to see your shyness wears off quickly huh?" I said with a sly smile

"And all done babe, now you can have people sign your cast or whatever you want! And after you get some meds for the pain your free to go!" she was overly cheery for someone who almost re-broke m damn arm.

"oh okay yeah " 

I waited for the nurse to leave and I was ou.t I absolute cannot stand hospitals I've had my absolute fair share of hospital visits

"Alrighty...Let's get out of here" with a snatch of the IV out of my arm and snagging my bag I left the room grabbing Allys hand on my way out.

"Wait! don't you have to stay for your meds?"

"Nah I have a shit load of them at home. The bills covered anyways hash-tag military brat anyways gimme your jacket "

"Hmm, may I ask why?"

"just do it!"

he took his jacket off ina hurry handing it to me. Slipping it on quickly I had to make it seem like I was being just going to the hospital cafeteria or something.

"now put your arm around me" he did as I asked a little reluctantly

"okay now when the doctor behind us walks past lean into my face but like...don't kiss me" his face began to look like a bright ass highlighter

"I wasn't gonna-!"

"okay now" and he did just as I asked... 

I heard my name in a sharp tone dammit they caught me. but I turned around to see a man I began to look him up from toe to head. Those aren't the doctor's shoes...oh God what am I seeing. reluctantly I looked up more to see brown skin darker than my own he doesn't have a lab coat on.   He's back. he found me.

" Bella?"

My heart skipped a beat

"Ingrid"
