WHAT AN ASSHOLE-CHAPTER 16

CLARE'S PERSPECTIVE

"So, you two are going out now?" Adam asked me with a grin slowly forming on his face.

I tilted my head smiling and I said, "I don't know, you know Eli, he'll say one thing and not mean it and then turn his back on me. But, he texted me, here, look."

I handed Adam the phone, as his eyes read it and he started to read out loud, "I hope that when you said 'boyfriend' you meant it, because when I said 'girlfriend' I meant it. I really like you Clare. I'm in math and so bored without you. I can't stop thinking about you. If you really do want to go out, then, meet me at my doctor's office. It's three blocks away from the Dot. If you show up, I know you want to continue whatever we started. ha-ha. I sound so cheesy, but yeah, if you come, I also have a place to show you after because I know the doctor's isn't an exciting first date... Okay, I'm going to stop rambling like a blubbering idiot, see you then...that is, if you show;) -Eli."

Adam laughed and asked, "Well, are you going to go?"

I breathed in, my heart racing, "I don't know what I should do. I just feel like, when I'm alone with Eli, everything is okay. But, when I mention Jake or he interrupts us, Eli gets all tense and angry and it's just a side to him...I hate seeing."

"I know it probably feels like a tough decision, but, Clare you can always break it off with him if you don't want to hang around him anymore. He'd understand, and besides, you being invited to his doctor's with him, it takes a miracle to get him to ask someone that. He NEVER goes with anyone to the doctor's. I remember when he had the flu and he wouldn't let his parents take him. He walked there, in the bitter cold, and got even sicker. But, eh, that's Eli for ya..." Adam told me making me feel guilty for thinking twice about meeting Eli at his doctor's.

I sipped my coffee in front of me, and placed it gently down.

"Well, I guess I'm on my way to his doctor's," I told Adam and he asked, "Want a walking buddy?"

I shook my head lightly and stood up, "Call me crazy, but didn't you tell me ten minutes ago that you had a shit load of homework?"

He nodded and said, "Yeah and your point is."

I giggled and said, "No, it's alright Adam, I'll walk alone. Besides, I could use the fresh air."

When I reached for the door knob, I turned to face Adam and I wrapped my arms around him.

I sighed and pulled away, "I didn't really get a chance to thank you for rescuing my drunk self over the weekend. I'm sorry for putting you through that."

Adam tried to hold back a laugh, but he let go, his face turning into a wide grin, "I'm sorry but you were really funny when you were drunk. It was no problem, and eh, even the drunk side of you hated Eli. You rammed him right in the nuts and you weren't even all there." He told me this while pointing to his head.

I tossed my head back lightly, and my eyes bulged when I looked at my watch, "Fuck, I'm gonna be late. I'll text you after."

"Alright, bye, have fun you two! Use protection, I don't want to be a godfather any time soon!" Adam screamed as I ran out the door rushing towards his doctor's office hoping he wouldn't give up on me and think that I stood him up...

ELI'S PERSPECTIVE

I hated this, I hated that my doctor's office was in a hospital. My eyes witnessed people being brought in on stretchers, bleeding to death, and dying. They were slowly slipping away from them and their lives were left in the fate of a doctor. A doctor, a person who is a total stranger to them.

My heart raced as if it was competing for first place in a heart attack.

I interlocked my fingers together, holding them tightly, and my breath hitched when I heard my name being called.

Well, it was worth a shot, I knew Clare wouldn't show up.

I knew she was just going to brush me off her shoulder, like a piece of lint attached to her shirt. I didn't know why I even convinced myself that there was a chance she would come. I was so stupid to believe that this girl would still like me after all the shit I put her through.

I'm sorry.

It's too late for that.

"Elijah Goldsworthy," the nurse called out and I raised my hand getting up slowly and inching towards the door.

I hated going to the doctor, and as much as I hated seeing people see me injured or sick I went into this door plenty of times, alone. But, this time it was different because I was going for a "personal" reason. Just thinking about this, made my heart race and I winced when my dick rubbed against my tight jeans.

I think I should stop wearing these dark black jeans; they stick to my thighs like fucking white on rice man.

Have you ever been in a pool with your regular clothes on and then when you get out, your clothes stick to you? That's what it feels like right now, except add the bruised nuts, and shooting pains through my body every time I move.

When I reached the door, the nurse asked, "Do you need me to get you a wheel chair?"

I shook my head and she asked, "Do you want to lean on me?"

"No, he can lean on me!" I heard a familiar voice call out and I smiled turning around to see Clare, out of breath, hair tasseled, chest heaving and rosy red cheeks...

After feeling totally violated by my doctor in front of Clare, we waited impatiently for the results.

I had to have my lower body covered as the doctor had to fucking feel me up in front of Clare. Since she was here, I wasn't going to go through this alone so she stood by my side and I gripped her hand tightly as she sat by my side and stroked my hair in attempt to calm me down.

"Don't take your eyes off me," Clare would whisper as I stared her down throughout the whole examination.

At this very moment, Clare stood impatiently by my side.

"Can you stop tapping your foot?" I asked her feeling tension between us build.

She sighed, and stopped, "I'm worried Eli. I'm sorry for caring about your fucking health."

"I'll be fine, I have nuts of steel," I told her as she asked smiling, "Oh really? Do you now?"

I smirked and she said, "Well see about that."

My heart skipped a beat when the door opened to the room I was placed in, and I clenched my hands together nervously feeling the sweat between my hands collide. The doctor remained silent, walking in slowly, as if he was casting for an emotional scene where he's going to tell me I have cancer and shed a fake tear. This just made me feel one hundred percent more nervous, and made me feel like I was all alone.

"So, what's wrong with me?" I asked him.

He sighed, placing my chart on the table, and took a seat.

"Okay, first of all, I found severe bruising on the testicular area," he told me and I rolled my eyes, "I knew that already."

Clare glared at me, telling me to shut the fuck up through her eyes, and I listened.

"Just a question, before I tell you what you have, what happened to you? Most people your age get it from a baseball incident, grounding the ball the wrong way, exercising, sex. I mean, I've seen a lot of crazy stuff, but, your testicals seem... severely bruised. I've never seen something like it before."

I gulped, my heart picked up pace, and I immediately turned to Clare.

My mouth opened, and I hesitated before answering because this was just so embarrassing.

"It happened twice, in two days," I breathed out and continued, "First I was near the car door, and she opened it not knowing I was standing there because she was looking down and then well you know what happened from there. And, then I put ice on it and it kind of felt better but, not like normal. But, that day I got into a fight with a school bully and he was wearing cleats...and dude hit me low blow."

The doctor screeched, and he said, "Jesus kid, it sounds like she treats you good, hitting your package with car doors."

"I was thinking the same exact thing!" I rose my voice laughing as the doctors joined in and Clare's face remained serious.

She sat in the chair near the door, crossing her arms, and the doctor said, "Man, you getting the chest cross, you're screwed."

Clare raised an eyebrow, and I smiled, loving this new doctor because he was my old doctor's son who recently took over the business. My face went from smiling, to frown when I glanced at Clare's expressionless face.

"He has a problem, and all you can do is complain that I did this to him," she contorted at the doctor as he raised his arms defenselessly and sighed.

The doctor sat down and I asked, "What's my fate?"

This was the first time in my life that I've actually felt...scared. I was scared of the results, I was scared of what's going to happen to me. What if something's seriously wrong with my dick? Why does it have to be my dick? Of all the parts on my body, my dick? Really?

My whole awkward situation could have been avoided if it wasn't for Jake. This is all his fault. He was going to pay for what he did to me, that is, whatever he did to me.

"Eli, you've got testicular torsion," the doctor told me and I squinted and asked, "English definition?"

The doctor smiled at my sarcastic humor, and Clare listened intently, "Well, this condition isn't common. But, when it does happen it usually happens through ages twelve through eighteen. So, it's normal for your age limit. Due to what happened to you over the past two days, and the long time you let this go on, how long again?"

"Three to four days," Clare implied noticing I had gone inaudible.

He sighed, "Going three to four days with this problem Eli, it's bad. It's unhealthy for your body, you basically beat your body up the whole time you didn't come to me or another doctor. But, you came just in time. You're really lucky."

I nodded, my eyes glaring at him, still remaining silent.

"Can you please just tell us what's wrong with him?" Clare asked a tear falling from her eyes.

The doctor sighed, his eyes searching the chart, and said, "Well, testicular torsion is when a testicle twists around, cutting off its blood supply. It can happen from serious trauma, like what happened to you, or strenuous activities, or just sitting around. It can happen to anyone."

I gulped, what the fuck? I hope Clare was paying attention because every time he opened his mouth, everything around the room slowed up and his tone was slow and drawn out.

"Now, if you go longer than six hours without seeing medical attention you could possibly result in reduced sperm production or loss of the testical," the doctor said and all I heard was "loss of testical" which caused my eyes to bulge.

"What? I'm going to lose my testical! What the fuck?" I screamed as my heart raced and I felt like I was going to vomit.

The room started spinning and he said, "We can fix it. I can fix it. Don't worry, you won't lose your testicals, they'll be fine as long as I do what I have to do."

"What do you have to do?" I asked him breathing heavily in between each word and glancing down at the floor which showed double vision of my feet.

He glanced at me and asked, "Eli, do you feel nauseous?"

I gulped, my throat so dry, the room spinning, and I saw four Clare's, two doctor Chris', and ten hands in front of my face.

"Eli, can you hear me?" Doctor Chris asked, as each word that left his mouth became further and further away until I couldn't hear or see anything...

CLARE'S PERSPECTIVE

"You did it already? It only took you an hour?" I asked the doctor as he signed off Eli's papers and handed me a prescription for Eli.

"Pain killers?" I asked him.

He nodded and said, "For Eli, it'll lessen the pain he's going to feel. I mean, it's not every day a kid gets his testicals placed back into the right place manually, now does it?"

I shook my head and he said, "Now, Eli's been here for a long time. I contacted his parents as you know, and I need you to give this to them because I know he won't. I told them that I'm giving you the prescription so please give it to them. I know Eli would get mad if I told his parent's to come, but they are really concerned for him. Eli's a good kid, it's just, he puts too much pressure on himself, you know? Try and keep the stress away from him or it might happen again. The nauseous feeling should go away within a couple of days as long as he take's these."

I looked down at the slip in my hand and nodded, "Okay, anything else?"

He sighed, thinking hard, and scratching his head with a pen.

"No intercourse for at least a month, and let up on the walking too. He really needs to rest, no stress, and absolutely no sex," he told me and I laughed, "Not a problem."

The doctor sighed and said, "Alright, now Eli's in room 403 down the hall to the right. He should be waking up soon and then you can take him home. Take it slow, he might still be a little dizzy from before and because of the anesthetic."

I nodded and wrapped my arms around him, "Thank you so much."

"No problem kiddo," he said as I pulled away and walked slowly down the hallway.

I quickly turned around and walked slowly down the hallway, as tears dripped from my eyes. I felt terrible, I felt completely and utterly disgusted with myself. I acted like a fucking jerk to him when we were getting the news about his...about his dick. I blushed just thinking about it and slapped my cheeks lightly taking me out of a daze. The pressure was also added because I feel that when I was drunk, and I slammed the door into his...you know what, I could have done this to him.

I glanced at Eli through the hospital door window, and smiled when his eyes started to flutter open.

He glanced around and I placed my hand on the glass slowly.

Eli lifted his arm up, and smirked.

The nurse's had already dressed him back into his clothes, but gave him a pair of loose sweats instead of his tight skinny jeans. I walked slowly into the room, avoiding any eye contact with him as I slid a chair next to his hospital bed.

Eli tried to sit up and I placed a gentle hand over his chest as he sat up, "Relax. Take it easy slugger."

"I feel different," Eli said and I smiled, letting a tear fall from my face and drip lazily onto my shirt.

I sighed, "I know. He fixed you Eli, Doctor Chris."

"You let him touch me?" Eli asked me, sitting up, getting angry.

"Eli, he had to help you. He called your parents and got consent from your parents to...to help you out down there. He untwisted it, so now it's fine, but you have to take care of yourself now."

Eli's nostrils flared and I said, "You have to take these pills to make the pain go away Eli. Don't you want to get better?"

"Come on, stop it, don't get up," I told him as he ignored me and hissed in pain getting onto his feet and once he reached the door he dropped to his knees and breathed out heavily. I rushed to his side and kneeled next to him, asking, "Why can't you just listen to me? Why do you have to be so difficult? We are all just trying to help you Eli!"

He smirked, a tear shed down his right eye and he whispered, "I just want to be alone."

"Fine," I said angrily getting up and walking away from him.

I turned around and I watched him struggle to get onto his feet once again and I said, "We're supposed to be a team."

"Yeah, well, I need a time out for two fucking seconds," he said as a tear strolled down my face and I watched him walk out on the other end of the hallway, avoiding me...
