SORRY FOR THE LACK OF UPDATE WE'VE BEEN DOING OPTIONS AND STUFF AT SCHOOL BUT YES HERE ENJOY
I've never been a fan of hospitals, and Dan didn't seem too keen either. We were taken straight to a doctor, walking past everyone in the waiting room. Dan sat down on the chair whilst I awkwardly stood behind.
The doctor started cleaning Dan's wound and I was still restlessly standing.
"You can, uh, sit down if you want?" The doctor nodded towards an empty chair on the other side of the room.
I did a double take before nodding and muttering; "Oh right… yeah."
I could see Dan's amusement as I sat on the chair, fidgeting every so often, his smile disappeared when the doctor rubbed his hands together.
"Right young Daniel," I smirked, "Looks like you'll be needing stitches."
He put on a brave face but swallowed hard, "Ok."
The doctor pulled out a needle and a fine, black thread;
"This might hurt a bit."
I squinted, not daring to watch, Dan was squirming slightly in his seat and gritting his teeth but managed to stay put.
It was over quickly; the doctor shook Dan's hand and told him to keep out of trouble. I smiled as Dan nodded, knowing that he'd go against his word.
He casually wrapped his left arm around me, his hand on my lower back. "Was I brave?"
I laughed, "Yes very, it was hard to watch, I don't think I'd be able to have it done!"
He grinned as we walked out into the car park, but suddenly his smile disappeared.
"Wait," He looked around, "How the fuck do we get home!?"
My eyes widened as I remembered that we'd been escorted in an ambulance.
"We should go into town for a while…" Dan nodded towards the busy high street a couple blocks away.
I chewed on my lip before agreeing, "Yeah ok, it's only," I checked my phone, "1pm. We could make an afternoon of it."
He gave a crooked smile, "Then onward we must march!" He unwrapped his arm from my waist, and started half speed walking, half lunging across the lot.
"Daaaan." I moaned as I sluggishly trailed after him.
He span round and laughed, "C'mon slow coach!"
By now a few people were watching us muck around. Dan ran back and effortlessly scooped me up as I screamed.
"Sh SH! You're causing an audience!" He smacked my arm.
He put me down and looked around at the people watching. I held out my arms, wanting him to pick me up again.
He squatted down so I climbed up onto his back, wrapping my arms loosely around his neck. He wrapped his arms around my legs and started running down the street.
"My trousers…" He whispered.
I burst out laughing, removed my arms and pulled them up for him; "Better?"
"Keep your hands on my butt and everything will be." He teased.
I shook my head but thrust my freezing cold hands under his shirt instead. He had no choice but to suck up to the frozen feeling his sides started to acquire, otherwise he would have dropped me.
