It was so special to me, it was like a romantic first date; him and I sitting outside the hospital watching the leaves turn. I loved every moment.
When we went back inside, I was exhausted. We had laughed and talked for what seemed like forever, and I was really tired. I decided to take a nap.
“I’ll be back later, kiddo.” He said quietly, after I had gotten back in bed. He brushed the hair out of my eyes and kissed my forehead. “Eat if you get the chance.” He then said to me, smiling. He winked at me and left. I finally drifted off and awoke a few hours later to the doctor coming in.
“She can leave tomorrow, if she’s feeling up to it. She needs to attend the rehabilitation center for a few weeks to get back on track. Sound alright?” he asked my parents.
“I guess. I really wish all of this never would have happened.” My mom said, frowning. She was disappointed in me. Little did she know, that same disappointment is probably what made me do this.
I left the next day. They allowed me a day to grab my things from home and pack my clothes. I called Jeremy before I left.
“Hey. I’m leaving soon, just thought I would call and let you know.” I said, wishing he could come stay with me.
“Well, I will come over later then, hopefully they will let me.” He said. He was so funny, so anxious to be with me every second of the day.
