My Other Half

Hospitalized

Chapter 2,Hospitalized

It was time for Eathan to get his second chemo treatment this week.

I usually took him, because my mom hated seeing Eathan like that.

"Thanks for driving me to my appointments Lauren." Eathan said as we pulled into the parking lot.

"No problem Eathan. I dont mind at all." I smiled

We nothe got out of the car after I parked close to the entrance. We walked into the doctors office and Eathan went in the back as I stayed in the waiting room. He usually didnt want me back there with him. I wouldnt argue. It was his decision.

"How is he?" The secretary, Linda asked me.

"He tells me he is feeling a lot better." I stated.

"Thats good. When is his next doctors appointment for a follow-up?" She asked.

"Sometime next week. I hoping good news is coming our way." I smiled.

"I hope so too. He seems like a very nice boy." She smiled back.

"Oh, believe me. He is." I laughed.

"And you have anice day." The doctor said a few minutes later while leadin Eathan into the waiting room.

"You too Dr.Serion." Eathan said.

When we left the office, Eathan seemed very happy.

"In a good mood?" I asked while driving home.

"Yup, Dr.Serion says im making good progress. But we wont know for sure until my next appointment with Dr.Kalin." He smiled.

"Can I go to that?" I asked.

Eathan smiled at me. "Of course you can Sis."

"Thanks." I smiled back.

That afternoon, I went over my boyfriend's house.

"Hey Lauren." Travis said as I walked in the front door of his house.

"Travis!" I squeeled and pulled him into a hug.

"Its good to see you." He laughed and released the hug.

"You too! I havent seen you in at least a week." I said excitedly

"I know, ive missed you." He said and kissed me pationatly.

Me and Travis stared dating our 9th grade year. We loved eachother more than we could express.

"Lets go upstrairs, shall we?" He asked.

I nodded and went up his sprial stairs and into his room.

"You look beautiful." He smiled as he closed the door behind him.

"Thanks Travis." I laughed.

"Im serious, your gorgeous." He smiled and sat next to me on his window seat.

"Im glad you said that, we have been having a rough week." I looked down.

He pulled my chin up with his finger. "He will be okay Lauren, I promise."

I smiled. "I hope so. Im just so worried about him."

He kissed me. "There is no need to worry. I have no doubt in my mind that Eathan will be okay."

I hugged him. "Thank you Travis."

After we talked for a little while, I decided I should go home.

"Please dont go." Travis teased as he chased me down the stairs.

"I have too. My mom is leaving soon." I laughed.

He cought up to me and grabbed my waist. "Stay a little longer?" He said and kissed my neck.

"I cant, someone has to be there with Eathan." I giggled.

"But I need you. I miss you." He whined.

I rolled my eyes and laughed. "Fine, then come with me." I said giving up.

He smiled and kissed me. "If you really want me too."

We both hopped into my car and started for my house.

We were 10 minutes from my house as we turned a blind corner and suddenly I saw a truck coming towards us. I swurved, not knowing where we were headed.

Travis was screaming next to me. I couldnt make out what he as saying then suddenly I felt something his us and me jerking forwards. Then everything went black.

When I woke up, all I could feel was pain. Pain in my head. Pain in my legs. Pain in my arms.

I finally was able to open my eyes completely. I looked around and saw mayself in a hospital. I looked to my right to find my mother holding my hand.

"Mom?" I said weakly.

She looked up with tears in her eyes. "Lauren, thank god your alright." She ran her fingers through my blonde, sweaty hair.

"What happened?" I asked.

"You were in a car crash honey." She said faintly.

"Is everyone okay?" I asked concerned about Travis.

"They guy who hit you is alright. He his you on the drivers side. You have a minor concussion, some broken ribs, and a severly broken arm." She said while crying.

"Mom, what about Travis?" I swollowed.

"He has a few cuts and bruises. Nothing big." She stated.

"Thank god." I took a deep breathe and felt the pain in my now broken ribs. "Wh.....where is Eathan?" I asked suddenly.

"He is right outside the room. He has been crying since we got the call." She said.

"Can I see him?" I asked squeezing my mother's hand.

She nodded and stepped outside the room. I suddenly saw my brother walk in. His eyes were beat red. He sat down a grabbed my hand tightly.

"I...I...I was so worried." He sobed.

I patted his hand. "Its okay Eathan. Im fine."

I shook his head. "Dumd ass truck driver. I swear, if I see him..ill."

I cut him off. "It wasnt his fault Eathan. We were both turning on a blind turn. Neither of us saw eachother coming." I comforted him.

"I dont gave a shit. He still hurt you" He cried.

"Its okay Eathan." I said.

Suddenly I heard a heard a series of loud beep noises around me. A bunch of doctors rushed into my room frantically moving everywhere.

"Whats going on?" Eathan said as he stood up.

"She has some sort of internal bleeding. She needs to go in emergancy surgery, now." One doctor said.

I saw my mom rush in. Eathan informed her on what was going one. My mother broke into tears again as I was rolled off into the hall.

"I need you to count down from 100 ms.Jones." A doctor said while putting a clear mask around my mouth.

I nodded. "100,99,98,97,96,95..." My breathed became slower. Then, I was out.
