I Wish
chapter twenty five.
The nurse pushed me back into my hospital room, in a wheelchair. I hadn’t broken my leg or anything, but it was hard to walk. I was still in a lot of pain and I got dizzy whenever I stood up. When we got into the room, everyone was already waiting for me. It’s nice to know that even though I had just met these people, they acted like they were my best friends. I guess because they actually are, I just can’t remember it. I stood up from the wheelchair slowly, pushing myself up from the bed for support and wincing in pain when I finally stood upright. “It’s okay, I’ll help you.” Zayn picked me up gently and laid me back down in the bed. His hands were gentle and his eyes showed of love that I’ve never felt before. “So, we have the results of the tests. She has a concussion and a few pulled muscles and sprains. It will be painful for her to walk for a while and the bruises and cuts will probably take a while to fade and heal. She is also suffering from Minor Amnesia, but like I said earlier her memory should return soon. So it’s nothing too major and she should be back to her normal self soon. She will be released today, and we will go get her paper work and everything right now. Just be patient with her, she might ask a lot of questions and you will need to remind her of many things. Give her the medicines and make sure she doesn’t move around too much. Be careful with her and help her to walk around and everything. I know you guys will take good care of her.” The nurse nodded to everyone around the room and smiled politely before leaving. “I brought some comfortable clothes, just in case earlier for her to change into. We’ll go get her paper work and everything together, we’ll meet you at the car Zayn. Are you sure you don’t want us to help you walk her out?” Lexie seemed ready to go, and I don’t blame her. They have been here for a while and I was eager to get out of the hospital room as well. “I’ve got her, don’t worry.” Everyone walked out and I laid in the bed, with my boyfriend that I feel like I have just met sitting beside me. “How bad do I look?” I asked him, rubbing a bruise on my arm that I was sure I had them all over. He pulled out a small mirror from my purse that he must have been holding onto for me since the accident, and lifted it up to me. “You look beautiful, see?” my face was full of cuts and bruises, but my hair was brushed neatly and parted just the way I liked it. “Did you do this?” I asked him, as I ran my fingers through my hair. “Yes. I ran out of songs to sing to you.. So I figured I’d brush your hair for you. ..” the corner of his mouth curved upward into a small smirk. “Come on, everyone is waiting for us. Let’s go get you changed and then we can go home.” He picked me up and carried me over to the bathroom that was in the room, standing me back up on the ground and handing me the clothes. These are defiantly my clothes. How much don’t I remember? I felt my eyes watering up as I thought about how many important things I must have forgotten and I looked at him for some help. “I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can really do this on my own right now.. Can you, help me? ..” I felt my cheeks get hot and red with embarrassment as I had just asked, basically a stranger to help dress me. He nodded and helped me change. “I’m sorry, I know this is awkward. ..” I felt uncomfortable, but not as uncomfortable as I thought I would. He wasn’t a total pervert about it like I was expecting him to be. I’m used to guys being immature perverts, so this was new. “It’s okay Bri, I’ve seen you.. uhm..” Omg. He has!? When did this happen!? I don’t even know this boy yet! “What!? .. Have we..” my face twisted into concern and embarrassment as I tried to get my words out to ask him. He nodded. “Yes. But you wanted to, I didn’t take advantage of you.. I swear. I would never do that. It was perfect, please don’t worry about it.” I’m not a virgin anymore? This is so uncomfortable. But I have to trust him. I must have wanted to. He seems like a sweet and genuine person. Just trust what he says Bri. I realized I was thinking too much, and shook my head to bring me back to the conversation. “It’s okay, really. Anyway, you’re all change now so let’s go home babe.” I’m gunna have to get used to him calling me that. He put his arm around my waist to support me and walked me slowly to the car where everyone was ready to go home. It was a struggle getting into the car, but everyone helped and I started feeling more and more appreciative of these people’s kindness and support. I sat in between Louis and Zayn on the awkward car ride home, to a place that will be new to me. “What if I never remember you guys? ..” I broke the awkward silence in the car, and my voice shook as I asked the question that was terrifying me. I remember my name, my clothes, where I live, how old I am, important things like that.. But they said Lexie is my best friend, like my sister.. That means I must have known her for a long time. Why don’t I remember her? “Don’t say that! You will remember us. And if you don’t, we will all just make new moments with you to remember.” Harry gave me a comforting look, turning around in his seat to speak to me. He sat in the seat in front of me, next to Niall because he refused to drive home. “I’m sorry that your car is messed up. ..” that was the first thing in my mind to reply to him with. “Don’t worry about it. It was my fault, and we can easily get that fixed. First we have to fix you, that’s more important.” He giggled a little. “Were just glad that you’re okay. That’s all that matters.” I flashed him a smile, and he turned back around to start a conversation with Niall. Liam chose to drive home. I felt safe with Liam driving, plus he had assured me earlier at the hospital that he was the one to keep us safe so I was content. We pulled into the driveway out front of a beautiful cabin. This is where I’ve been staying? They helped me out of the car and Zayn carried me inside.
