Rebound

Chapter 2

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

Beeeeep.

I opened my eyes, surrounded by blinding white light.

This wasn't my bedroom. Where was-

"Casey Grey? I am Dr. Winters" Great. I was in hospital. Why?

 "You overdosed on  Psilocybin Cyanescens, more commonly known as magic mushrooms,and were hit by a car, and have been in a coma for the past two weeks."

My mouth dropped open, way to put it nicely. He saw my look and answered my unspoken question.

"Yes I know, quite I shock. Have this water", he said, indicating to a bottle of spring water in his hands "After waking up from a coma, people are usually quite thirsty."

Almost by magic, at his words my throat went dry and I felt parched, as if I had been in the desert.

"Oh, and the police would like to speak to you about what happened."

Great.

I hastily took the water from him with a quick thank you and had glugged down half the bottle when I noticed a handsome stranger sitting in a chair next to the bed, his head resting on my legs as I was sleeping.

"Who the hell is he?!" I shouted in shock, water spraying everywhere. My sudden movement caused him to stir, and the young man stifled a yawn.

"I assumed he was your boyfriend or something, he's been here almost every night?-"

"I'm the idiot who ran you over."

Oh.

Guilt was grossing his feautures, as he countinued to ramble, "I'm so sorry, I don't know what to say, I was just driving home and there I saw you in the middle of the road having a fit or something, and I slammed on the brakes, but my car didn't stop on time and again I am so sorry-"

"It's okay," I cut him off "It wasn't your fault. My name's Casey Gray, who are you?"

"Secret :D" He said grinning

He had messy, chocolate brown hair and piercing blue eyes. He wasn't ripped, but he wasn't lanky either, more of a perfect balance between the two. He looked quite athletic, and his clothing suggested he came from a comfortable upbringing, nothing like the council estates, smoking and gangs I was from. The doctors words suddenly registered with me and I turned to him in shock:

"You've been here every night?!"

"Uhh..yeah.." He said, blushing and looking embarrassed, "I felt guilty, and I wanted to be here when you woke up...' He trailed off.

"You didn't have to.."

"Well, I wanted to."

Dr. Winters decided to remind us of his presence again at that point, "Miss. Gray, we need to run a few tests and take some obs."

He took that as his cue to leave.

"Bye, Casey."

"Bye", I said with a smile.

After a million gruelling tests, the doctors moved me back to my room

"The police will be here to talk to you in an hour, miss.", a young nurse informed me. "Until then, get some rest", and with that she left the room.

Something buzzed in the room, and I looked towards my bedside table to find my phone vibrating.

Hey ;) From some random number.

Who is this? I reply.

Secret ;D

Oh, you again.HOW' DID YOU GET MY NUMBER?!!

Yes, me :P I uh, went thru your phone.. When you out of hospital?

GRR. Dunno

I'm coming to see you again tomorrow, maybe we could meet up sometime when you get out?

Soz, my boyfs coming, and no for the date, he doesn't like me seeing other guys.

WELL, unless they're his 'friends'. And that's practically rape.

Who said it was a date? Jk, why are the good girls always taken?!!

I Laughed at then, then proceeded to reply:

*laughs darkly* Who said I'm a good girl? There's a lot you don't know about me.

Your names Casey Grey, the reason you were having a fit is because you overdosed on drugs, you also drink, you're about 16,you have grey eyes and auburn hair. That enough?

You're not judging me?

No.

Wow. This guy was good. Most people would run a mile when they found out I was a drug addict.

I heard the door open, and after quickly telling him I had to go, I turned my head up to see who it was. Time to face the music.
