Where the Sky Begins
Chapter 14
I heard a soft beeping in the background, and I slowly opened the eye that wasn't bruised and taped up.
Oh no, what- what happened
I peered around to the left, and there was Nate, head resting near my side, asleep, and holding my hand.
I coughed.
His head jolted up, and I laughed at his misheveled hair.
"Emmy, you're awake. Oh, God, I was-"
But I leaned over, wincing as my side ached, and kissed him.
"Don't- don't move. I know it hurts."
"It's fine, Nate...But- what happened? I know Wade-" I paused, trying to remember.
"Yeah," Nate said softly. "Yeah....Wade broke in, and I came down, and you were just lying on the floor with him standing over you." He paused again. "I'm sorry, Emmy. It's not going to happen again. That- that lowlife is on his way to jail."
"When can I get out of here?"
"A couple of days, probably. Their not sure yet....you're pretty broken up."
I sighed. "Well...where's my aunt?"
"Cafeteria.." He laughed.
"Mmm."
"Do you need more pain meds?"
I winced again as I nodded my head.
He pressed a button near the end of my bed, and soon, a nurse came in with a small cup.
"Here you go, honey. Don't chew, just swallow."
I nodded slightly and swallowed the pain meds, immediately starting to feel a little dizzy and tired.
Great.
"I'll be right here, ok?" I heard Nate say, as I drifted.

Wow....it has been a really long time since I updated. And I feel bad, but here is the cause. I had up to like 15 written on Quizilla, but when I logged in to transfer the next chapter, it deleted ALL my stuff. So I was pretty pissed. But anyways, here you go. Again, I'm really sorryyy. And this is pure filler :] Enjoy. Comments are love?
