I'm sorry for the long wait. There was some drama in my life, and I got writer's block. I hope you enjoy this chapter. Reviews are my muse ;)
~ Chapter 4 ~ A Devine Surprise ~
Time in the hospital seems to fly by so fast. It's already Sunday afternoon, and the doctor will release me in the morning if I'm healed enough to be taken care of at home, I don't see how I'd be ready tonight.
They will run all sorts of tests and stuff to check. I convinced myself that I only imagined a vampire; after all I was on the brink of death. I'm so nervous all I want to do is go home and rest, I need to be better!
I start to nervously fidget on the bed. Testing which movement will hurt and how I can move pain free. Most of my movement only hurts my ribs; they are a lot better than when I first got here Thursday night though. Wow has it really been that long?
I found out how I could move with barely any pain, but it is hard to maintain. I look at my poor broken shins, which probably mean I'll need a wheel chair. I sighed in frustration.
How am I supposed to defend myself from a group of Neanderthals? Especially when I'm in a wheel chair? Maybe they won't attack me again until I'm out of it again, they don't bother Artie much. It's going to be really hard for me to wheel myself around, with my broken arm and broken hand.
My cuts hurt badly, about as much as the broken ribs. I honestly don't know how I survived, but I know I'll come out of this stronger than ever.
"Are you ready for the tests Kurt?" My main nurse asked. I found out her name is Alicia Finch.
"I think; what will I have to do?" I asked.
"The doctor will run more tests to see how well you've healed, and if you're able to be taken care of at home." Alicia said.
"Okay then." I said bracingly. She carefully puts me in a wheel chair, and then she takes me to another room where I suppose the doctor will be running the tests, or whatever.
I'm not really sure, the pain meds have me kind of dazed, and it's hard to focus too long. Especially when I'm tired, I'm so tired with everything that's been going on; I just want it to be over.
"I'll go get the doctor and tell her you're ready." Alicia said.
I smile and nod. Here I go the test that will decide when I'm leaving. My nerves are at the boiling point! I look around the room and notice a couple balance objects and weights and other objects in this strange room. I put my hands on my wheels and give a little test push. "Ouch! Come on I can do this!" I exclaim. "I have to!"
I keep the tears back and push again. "Ouch!" The pain in my arm and hand is so great. My breathing is heavy, and my heart feels like it's beating too fast, it's so painful. The cut that is across my stomach hurts more now from flexing my abs so much. I sigh; look at me what can I do, nothing without hurting so badly and wheezing from all the strain.
I hang my head in defeat, and try to slow my breathing and thusly my heart rate. Surely there must be a way for me to do this! I move to try again just as the doctor comes in and sees the sweaty, gasping shape I'm in. Her eyes begin to widen and she gasps.
"What are you doing? You're not in any condition to do that. Especially when no one's here to make sure you're safe sweetie." The doctor said.
She hurries over to me and checks my heart rate. She checks how well I can move, and checks different parts of my injuries to see how it affects everything, and then she x-rayed me, then she checks to make sure I no longer have a concussion.
"Kurt, as long as you remember to take all of your medicine when you're supposed to, and change the bandages every day or at least every other day, you can go in the morning around eight.
"No school until you can move around better. Come back twice a week, how's Wednesday and Saturday and we'll see how well your healing. And soon you'll be ready for therapy." She said.
"It sounds good to me. Thank you." I said. Then Alicia came in and wheeled me back to my room and put me back on the bed.
"I heard you get to go home in the morning Kurt, that's great." She said smiling. "I'll call your father." She said then left.
I decide on going to sleep now. I'm so tired all the time from all the pain medicines, and I want to get my rest for tomorrow. At first all I see is blackness.
Then I'm in a meadow it's so beautiful. Then little diamond like sparkles were everywhere. I turned, and noticed I was standing and not in a wheel chair. Edward Cullen is standing at one end of the meadow, and then I hear a growl. I look toward the sound, and at the other end I see Blaine.
They sprint in a blur toward each other offensively. Just as I hear one of them cry out in pain, not sure which one, my eyes fly open. No, Blaine is not a vampire! I look at the clock it's 8:48. Where is my dad, or someone to pick me up forty eight minutes ago?
I look around for anything to do, but there's nothing but white walls a window I can't really look out of and an old TV. I sigh.
What have I ever done to them? Nothing, they're just cruel pee brains. I've been stuck in this hospital when I need to get ready for sectionals.
I don't think I'll get a solo; I never get one for competitions. That honor will probably go to Rachel. It always does. I won't need to practice much then.
It's now 8:52. Where can he be? Maybe I can order a taxi; I don't want to stay here. It would be hard for me to take a taxi in this condition though, I sigh.
I stare at the door for five minutes, and then Alicia walks in. "Hi Kurt, your dad called and said not to worry; someone will be here to pick you up soon. I wanted to see if you needed anything." She said.
"No, I'm just a little nervous because no one is here to pick me up yet." I said. She gives me a sweet smile then she walks out.
I look out the window, it's a cloudy day. I wonder if there is going to be rain today. "Hello, your dad found me and asked if I could pick you up, I told him yes. So here I am." The sudden voice making me jump, I didn't hear anyone walk in, or make any noise whatsoever.
My head turns quickly towards the voice. I gasp, it's Blaine! "What are you doing here?"
"I just told you, I'm here to take you home. When your dad found out who saved you, he went searching for your rescuer to thank him. Well me, I guess.
"He found me and invited me to your home, we watched football, and he asked me to pick you up. I think he wanted to surprise you." Blaine said.
"Well I'm definitely shocked to see you to say the least. Could we please get out of here now, I'm tired of this place." I said with a chuckle.
"Sure, whatever you say Kurt." He said. One moment he was by the door, the next he was by my bed. How does he do that? He lifts me all too easy, and places me in my wheelchair.
"I already told the doc that I'm picking you up, she gave me your medicine and told me you're free to go." He said. "I'm so glad to see you again, I feared I never would." He said seriously.
We are almost to Blaine's car and I can't hold it anymore, "Are you really a vampire?"
"Of course I am." He said with a smile. "Don't worry though, I'm not evil." He chuckled.
"I already knew that. You did save me didn't you? I could never think you evil after you saved me, and then managed to still not kill me." I said.
"I will never kill you Kurt." He said evenly.
I know I shouldn't be, but I'm falling in love with Blaine, faster than I thought possible.
So... how was it?
