Infirmary
As I opened my eyes, I saw nothing but white walls. Was I dead? I attempted to sit up and realized I was very much alive from the pain I endured. I laid back down and turned my head to the side. A sharp pain shot through my entire neck, but I had to see where I was. Peeking through my teary eyes I saw Nurse McRea standing beside the other bed. She held up a thermometer.
"Your fine Mr. White, you can go." She said irritably.
"No I'm not feeling good." I heard Davis's voice and felt a rush.
"But there is nothing wrong with you. I understand your girlfriend is here but you need to go the class. I'll let you know when she wakes up." The woman said. I sat up ignoring the pain.
"I'm up." I said weakly. Davis jumped from the bed and rushed over kneeling on the floor. I watched as tears formed in his eyes.
"I am so sorry I left you there. I thought you would have waited inside for me." One of the tears escaped, he tried to wipe away before I could see.
"What happened?" I asked placing my hand on my head. The headache was almost more than I could take.
"Someone beat you up pretty bad." Nurse McRae said placing a icepack on my head. "You'll be fine, you just need to rest for a couple of days." She said walking toward the hallway.
"I know who it was." I called after her. She turned and slowly walked toward me.
"Then who was it my dear?" She asked in and odd type of way.
"Max." I said with hatred. The woman laughed and shook her head as she walked out of the room. Davis stood up.
"Why does no one believe this?" He yelled. Seth walked in with a forced laugh and rushed to my side.
"Sapphira you need to go to the cops. This is getting out of hand." He said looking and the infuriated Davis.
"Or I just find him and beat the shit out of him." Davis added as he clenched his fists. I smiled knowing that we had worked through the trust issue and he was back to his old self.
"No I don't want you to do that. He is already looking for a way to get you and me out of here. I almost got fired just now for talking calmly about it to Dr. Crabblesnitch. Until this whole thing is settled you have to lay low Sapphira. You will be in here for the next few days anyway, but once you are released I arranged for you to stay in the motel around the corner." Davis held his hand up and laughed.
"She is not going to stay in a motel off of campus where I cannot keep an eye on her." He shook his head. Seth sighed.
"Then sir, what would you like me to do?" Seth stood up straight and crossed his arms.
"Let me go too. You don't have to know anything about it." Davis sounded desperate, Seth let out a hearty laugh.
"You expect me, an authority figure, to let you stay in a motel with a female student?" Seth raised an eyebrow at Davis. I watched as Davis took a step closer to Seth.
"If you don't I will sneak out and do it anyway." Davis narrowed his eyes at the larger man. Seth backed away and sighed.
"Fine but I know nothing about where either of you went." Seth turned and walked out of the room.
