The Bad Boy's Girl

58- Just Great

I fluttered my eyes open and just saw whiteness.

Am I dead?

No you dumbass, this is a hospital room.

Fun, who's all in here?

Like, everybody.

Fun.

So the curtain is closed... why?

I know just as much as you do.

I moved my arm, and it felt fine.

I lifted my head, I felt fine.

I moved my legs, I felt fine.

Just because I didn't drink water, does not mean I need to be in here.

I looked to my right and saw Lilli, asleep. She looked extremely uncomfortable.

The hospital is becoming our second home.

I took one of the pillows off my bed and sat up. I then gently lifted Lilli's head and put the pillow underneath.

I set her head back down.

The boys were whispering to each other.

I couldn't make out what they were saying.

That's the point of a whisper.

Shut up.

I needed something heavy to throw at them. Through the spot where the two curtains meet.

I looked to my right and saw a Kleenex box. I picked it up and just as I planned, I threw it through the spot.

"Ow." One of the boys mumbled.

The curtain then flew open. Immediately following-Hunter rushed to my right side, Lilli being asleep on my left.

He brought me into a hug.

"Don't do that ever again, you hear?" He whispered into my ear.

"Can't promise anything, that's the job of a burden, but you know why I ran off. Right?" I answered.

Hunter loosened the hug and sat on the bed beside me.

"You're still thinking about that dream?" He asked me.

I sighed,

"That's not the point. You know why I ran off, right?"

Hunter then sighed before nodding his head,

"He's awfully sorry. The whole time we've been waiting for you to wake up, he's been sitting there-crying."

A tear slipped my eye, Hunter then wiped it off with his thumb,

"You're not a burden. I'm telling you that right now. If anything, us guys enjoy saving you. It makes us feel that we have a purpose."

I smiled,

"Who did I hit with the box?"

Hunter chuckled,

"Darren."

"Oh my god, Darren come here." I said while giggling.

He walked over to us and looked at me while smiling,

"Yeah?"

"I didn't mean to hit anyone with the box. I just wanted it to hit the wall or something." I told him, still giggling.

Darren chuckled,

"It's all good, kid."

I smiled and wrapped my arms around his torso, me being at a low height due to sitting on the bed.
