Chapter 16: Change?

*Jasper Pov*

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

Ugh make it stop. Just make. it. stop.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

Ok really? What is that?

I open my eyes and I'm blinded by a bright light.

As my eyes adjust I look around the room I am in.

White walls.

White blinds.

White everything.

I finally realize I am in the hospital, again.

What happened this time?

I look around and see my dad on the chair next to the bed.

I finally start to remember what happened.

The fire!

That would explain why it felt like my body was going to break if I moved an inch. And why I couldn't breathe very well.

But hey, I'm alive...

Right?

I mean obviously I am.

I wouldn't be thinking or looking around the room if I wasn't.

Coming back to the real world after my random thoughts, I looked back at my dad. He was sleeping.

I moved my leg and winced as a sharp pain shot up my leg. "Holy cow" I said, my dad jumped and looked at me. "Your awake" he said, I nodded slowly.

He reached his hand out and I flinched back thinking he was going to hit me. But instead he gently moved my leg back onto the pillow it was resting on before I moved it.

I looked at him confused. "What?" he said, I shrugged, then winced. He frowned.

A doctor came in and talked to us for a minute about my injuries.

After he left I looked at my dad. "Umm I'm glad your ok" I said, he smiled.

Wait, he smiled?!

"I'm glad your ok. You didn't have to help me." he said, I frowned.

"I wasn't going to just leave you to die." I said, he sighed. "Thank you. Thank you for saving me. And I'm sorry" he said, I looked at him shocked. "What?"

Did he really just say that?

"Jasper I'm sorry, for everything. I promise I'm going to change" he said.

I couldn't speak.

He just said he would change.

Something must have hit him in the fire.

I never thought I would hear those words come out of his mouth.

I smiled.

My dad is back.
