She layed there just watching him, wishing that a miracle would bring them back to the good times.
Chapter One: Regrets
"Alright Miss Montez, you have to leave now. Visiting hours were over 15 minutes ago."
Gabriella knew this, but didn't want to go home without him. She forced herself up from the small chair, looked back at him, and left the room, as she had done many times before.
Walking down to her car was the same routine as always, but this time she couldn't do it. Falling to the ground in tears, Gabriella wished that he could be here picking her up from the ground, telling her that everything was going to be alright. She remembered the first time that he had done this for her, which made Gabriella cry even harder.
"I can't even stand you any longer! All you do is mess everything up! Do you know how hard i've been working on this project, and now it is a disaster!"
Gabriella shook her head at the words that her seventeen year old self had said. Why didn't she just fix the project, it really wasn't a big deal, wasn't it?
"Gabs, im sorry, I just didn't know. You fell asleep and I was just trying to tidy your stuff up a little. I didn't see the cup there."
She knew that he was right, and that he was just trying to help her.
"I don't care! I've been working on that project for hours now, and it, it, it's ruined!"
"I'll fix it, i'll help you! But we really need to get to school now, we're going to be late."
"I don't want a ride from you, for all I know you may forget to brake at a stop sign and then i'll be dead!"
Why did she say this? Now, she would have died for him. She would do anything to see his soft blue eyes open once again.
Gabriella ran out of her house with tears running down her face, off into the direction of the woods. She was glad that her mother was at work. She didn't want to talk to anyone at the moment, except her father.
The thought of Gabriella's tall, muscular father popped into her head. "He was a great daddy, he would have been here for me", she thought to herself. Trying to make herself not cry anymore than she already was, she shifted her thoughts back to that day, that special day when she felt what true love was like for the first time.
She looked behind her and saw him running after her. Maybe saying all of those things was a bad idea. He really cared about her.
Just then, Gabriella tripped over a large rock and fell right on her left arm. The pain was excrutiating. She let out a blood curderling scream. Her arm was broken.
Suddenly, he came over to her out of nowhere. "It's going to be alright", his soft, tender voice spoke,"show me where it hurts."
As she looked at her bloody arm, he pulled her tighter in his arms.
"Let's take you to the hospital Gabs, this needs to be checked out."
She gasped for air, realizing that she hadn't taken a breath since she fell.
He picked her up and held her just like her father used to when she was a little girl. The breeze felt good against her teary face as they made their way out of the woods and into his truck.
She wished that he was here now, to tell her that everything was going to be okay, and that he would be coming home soon.
