Maya's POV
Poor Riles, this whole thing really got her worked up she is way too tense. I wanted to say slow down Riles, or calm down but just when I was about to say it Lucas' parents came out of the room saying he was still asleep but we could go in. Of course Riley and I went. He didn't look like Ranger Rick anymore; he looked like Lucas who needed friends during a time of questions. I immediately called Isaiah and Farkle which I had forgotten to do earlier.
Riley's POV
So it was just me and my unconscious friend one of my best too. Hoping that he wouldn't wake up at that moment I began talking about the day we first met, our first kiss, and how he always was there for me, then somehow I ended up talking about how I wouldn't be able to live without him he was always anchoring me down and reminding me of what's right "I just don't want to even think about…" "You don't have to." Lucas said his voice was soft and raspy. "Lucas!?" "Oh my Gosh! You heard all of that I'm sorry.
Lucas' POV
I woke up to the sound of Riley's concerned voice, but I decided to wait just a little longer and keep my eyes shut to hear what she was saying. She started talking about all of the big moments we had and then started to trail off on to if she had to live without me… but I wasn't going anywhere. "You don't have too." I replied, realizing that my voice was super raspy and sounded like a frog. She quickly apologized and started to stutter. I put my hand on her neck "it's ok."
-A few hours later-
Well after having my parents come in and the Matthews family I had to endure the worst. Stitches and making sure my bone in my foot was set. I also had to wear a steel brace for my spine which was apparently weakened. I was so relieved to know that none of this would hurt my baseball dreams, just as I started to get super happy the doctor told me "You need to rest for quite awhile and will need a wheelchair." "Wheelchair!?" I shouted so loudly I bet the people down the hall heard me. "What about baseball you said I could play!" "You will, once you recover, it should only take three months, it would be crazy if it took longer." Three months!
-The next day-
Riley's POV
I came back to the hospital the next day with a get well card and a stuffed horse. I asked at the front desk what Lucas' new room was "C59." the nurse said "Thanks." After taking the elevator up to floor C and walking past 58 rooms I found C59. I peeked in the door's window before I went in and to my surprise he looked ok.
Lucas' POV
Wheelchair, Surgery, broken bones, and casts… all because of two mad kids? I wonder what happened to them. I got overwhelmed thinking about it plus the part about me missing just about the most important games of my life! The baseball scouts usually don't want a kid with two broken ribs and in a wheelchair. I learned baseball cleats can do a lot of damage to a human body. I guess I started crying because all I remember was a knock at the door and my hand felt wet when I pulled it out from under my chin where it was resting. Quickly, wiping my face off I stared at the T.V. which had a bull riding show on I was watching earlier. I saw Riley's soft small face peak around the corner of the door. "Hey..." she said shyly. "Hey." I replied as I gave a nice smile."
Riley's POV
He replied once again giving me that grin of his. I gave him the card and stuffed horse. "The card is from the class and the horse is from me, Maya, and Farkle. He laughed. "Thanks, this is so nice of you guys…"
Lucas' POV
I looked at the card it had every name in the class from Mr. Matthews to Alex but one name was missing. "Where is Zay's name?" I asked. "Isaiah was not at school today he also hasn't answered are texts." Riley said concerned. "He is probably just sick again, he gets sick a lot, and we used to call him a germ magnet." I said trying to brush it off. "So when can you go home?" she asked me. "In about two days, the doctors want to make sure the surgery worked and to make sure this brace doesn't shift." I said as I nodded my head backwards towards the brace. " I am also going to be in a wheelchair for three months…" "WHAT!" Riley exploded. "That's not fair…" "It's ok…" I really seemed to be ok with stuff a lot. "Those two boys were sent to Juvie."She noted. I nodded my head.
