I was awoken by the lingering smell of burnt paper and coffee
I scanned the room and realised I was in hospital bed I grabbed my chest and tugged on my hair
Phew I'm alive after being ran over
I saw what appeared to be a boy around my age sleeping in a chair next to me
Wait ... Where's Lucy?
No is she okay I hope that man didn't get her back I didn't see where he went after I rammed Lucy out of the way of that car .
I stared at the boy for a good hour or so until he shifted and awoke slowly
He stared into my eyes and exclaimed
" your breathing!!"
He embraced me and I hugged him back as it felt like the right thing to do .
Who was this boy ?
" oh I'm phil by the way "
" I'm dan "
"So why are you here " I asked politely
He smiled and said
" oh yeah ermm.... Well I saw you sitting in my schoolyard and I wanted to see if you were okay but as soon as I went over you ran away so I chased after you being the curious person I am
And saw you get ran over by that car and push that little girl away .... I called the ambulan..."
"So you saw that man grab Lucy and drag her down the road ?!"
"Yeah .. I didn't see where he went after though....
Because I was making sure you were okay "
"Thanks" I answered plainly.
He sat back in the chair and bit his lip.
I actually quite liked him he seemed like a nice person how he tended to me and made sure I was okay
"So how come you weren't in school ?" He asked
"My mom doesn't let me go to school .."
"Why?"
"She tells me I'm worthless and I don't deserve to get an education but I still fought myself how to write and read and stuff so I'm pretty decent at them things "
" You arent worthless!! "
I know I've only just met you but I don't think you worthless ..."
He mumbled something and my mind drifted away back to when Lucy was being dragged , how horrifying it looked.
I snapped back into reality when a nurse waltzed in and told phil to leave as she said I needed some rest he began to get up however I protested and said
" NO ,I want him to stay !"
" but you don't even know him"
" yes I do I've known him all my life "
Now if you don't mind can I get some sleep please? "
"Mr howell I really do believe hat Mr Lester should leave "
"Nurse " I squinted looking at her name tag.
"Joy I really would appreciate it if you left me and phil alone "
"But .... "
"No I don't care please just leave"
"Fine ... I'll be back at 3 to check how your healing "
She closed the door and phil looked at me with his huge dazed blue eyes then hugged me again . I hugged back but it felt more natural this time . as if we were
LOVERS...
