SERENAS POV
I woke up totally confused, i had no clue where I was or how I got here. I sat up and saw Mum next to me I shook her awake.
"Ohmygod I'm so glad you're awake," mum said relieved as she hugged me.
"What happened?" I asked still very confused.
"The doctors think you passed out, but dont know why and have done blood tests! We're just waiting for the results. They also said you hit your head really badly," mum explained, as I just realised how much pain I was in.
"Oh. What day is it?"
"It's Wednesday, the doctors want to keep you here for a few more days to monitor you!" I tried not to let the disappoint show,
"Alright," there was something that made me not like that idea, it was as if i was disappointed about not going to school, but i couldn't quite figure out why, so i shook my head confused!
"I'll be back, I'm going to get some food," Mum said kissing my forehead, and leaving.
A few minutes later there was a knock at the door, "come in,"
I look up and its Miss Young.
"What are you doing here?" I asked confused. She walked over to my bed and sat down.
"What happened? How are you feeling?" She asked concerned. Worry written in her eyes.
"I passed out, and got a concussion. I've got a headache but apart from that I'm good!" I said, she took a hold of my hand, a warmth spread through my body, that I'd never felt before. I was very confused by her and didn't know if what I felt was meant to be a good thing or not.
"Thats not good. I'm sorry for just showing up. I just had to know you were okay. I was so worried about you especially when you didn't show up for 3 days. I know its not right me being your teacher, but i care about you... alot" the whole time she was talking, i just sat there smiling.
Jake never came and visited when I've been in hospital before.
"No its okay, i don't mind at all" i said smiling at her.
We talked for a while longer, she never let go of my hand once.
We heard voices, and she quickly let go of my hand but didnt stand up until the door had opened, and revealed my mum and a doctor!
Mum looked confused. "Mum this is my english teacher, Miss Young,"
Miss Young shook my mums hand, "its nice meeting you Mrs Jade, i best be off though, i have school work to grade," she turned around and faced me with her back to my mum.
"When will you be back in class?" She asked, i could see hope in her eyes, "um probably monday, they want to keep me here for a few more days," i could see her face drop, "Okay I'll come by tomorrow and give you work that you'll have missed for the week, bye Serena" she said, winking then turned around, said good bye to my mum and left. She left me so confused! I shook my head as i realised the doctor and my mum were talking, and turned my concentration to them.
"We still dont know what caused you to pass out, so we're going to have to run more tests," the doctor said. I got suddenly really concerned.
"Does that mean i'll be in here for longer?" I asked the panic clear in my voice.
"No, you can go home friday afternoon," i breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay awesome," i said. The doctor left and mum came and sat down.
"That was nice of your teacher to come visit, I'm surprised Jake hasnt come," mum mentioning his name brought tears to my eyes,
"We broke up, and why are you surprised? Hes never shown up when ive been in hospital before," i said angrily, wiping away the tears.
"Thats true, wait you guys broke up? Why?" Mum asked very confused.
"He cheated on me," the tears now flowing and couldn't be stopped. Mum grabbed my tissue, and pulled me in for a hug.
The next few days dragged on and by friday i was just ready to go home.
Miss Young came by thursday and gave me all the school work i had missed from all the classes.
We talked for a few hours, and i got to know her better, and found out about her family, and why she started teaching etc.
Then she had to leave and the rest of the day dragged on until friday eventually came.
Mum and I were packing up my things when the nurse came in.
"You will need to come back on monday after school because there is a few more tests we need to do, just take it easy over the weekend," the nurse informed us.
She handed mum a release form for her to sign then we could leave.
The weekend went by really fast! I finally got my phone back, and saw about a zillion messages from my friends all worried sick about me. They thought I'd died..
I messaged them telling them i was fine, and had been in hospital all week, and didnt have my phone on me.
It got to Monday and i was so unmotivated to do anything. The only motivation i had was to see Miss Young, because ever since thursday, i havent been able to get her out of my mind and i dont quite know why.
I eventually got up and got to school with 10 minutes to go. My friends rushed over to me, embracing me in hugs. Them asking if I'm okay a million times. I just nodded, not really wanting to talk.
I got my things from my locker and headed to class, just wanting period 4 to hurry up so i could see Miss Young.
Period 3 went on and on. Being maths, it was such a drainer! I didnt pay any attention. It finally ended, i think i fell asleep way too many times.
I hadnt spoken much to my friends during recess and lunch. I kept to myself on my phone, or listening to music.
Period 4 eventually rolled around. I walked into class, and sat in my usual spot and waited for Miss Young to appear. She finally did, and saw me sitting in my usual spot, the look on her face, made my day.
Her whole face lit up and she couldn't stop smiling.
"Okay class, today we're going to be learning about Shakespeare," she said as everyone groaned.
I zoned out and just stared her.. Watching the way she moved, the way she wrote, and how every minute or so she would quickly glance at me. I found a million things that i loved about her. Wait what! Wtf am i saying, me love her. No way.
The end of the period ended quicker than expected. Before i knew it everyone had left and it was just me and Miss Young. I looked up, and saw her sitting on the desk in front of mine.
"How are you?" She asked. I smiled, my heart melting a little bit.
"I'm good, I have to go back to the hospital in a couple of hours, for more tests,"
"Oh okay," there was concern written on her face!
"Babe, ill be fine," i said to her trying to reassure herself as well as me. Her face relaxed a bit, and she smiled, so i guess that was reassurance enough! She got up and started walking to her desk. Without thinking i got up and followed her, and grabbed her hand. She turned around and i pushed her against the wall. Then kissed her! She was stunned at first, not moving, then eventually she kissed me back.
I eventually pulled away, "thank you so much for coming to the hospital it means a lot," I said then grabbed my stuff and left.
The whole way home i was confused about why i had kissed Miss Young.
I'm not a lesbian, I'm totally straight. I kept telling myself I was. But maybe I'm not! I shouldn't have to tell myself! Should I?
I started thinking about the kiss. Her lips were so soft, and tasted of berries. I remembered how fireworks errupted in my stomach the moment my lips touched hers. Not once did it ever feel like that kissing Jake.
I remembered the way she kissed me back.. my thoughts were interupted when i realised tears were streaming down my face.
I angrily wiped them away, hating Jake for ever hurting me.
The hospital was torture, they ran some blood tests then sent me on my way home, saying I'd get the results in a few days time. Great, what on earth was I meant to do while I waited, sit home and worry.
I eventually got home, and as i walked through the door mum came up to me," I'm going on a business trip for a few days, here's my spare credit card if you run out of money,"
And with that she was gone before i had the chance to say anything.
I didn't quite understand what went through mums mind because i have literally been out of hospital for like 2 days and just like that she was gone! I mean I'm used to her leaving for business but this hurt.
I shrugged my shoulders and went upstairs to my room.
