Elizabeth

Elizabeth looked at the clock, her phone long dead. Actually, she wasn’t sure if it was just a lack of charge or if all the water damage from it being in her pocket had caused it to die permanently. She supposed she would find out when she got home and plugged it into her charger.

Wait… was she supposed to put it in rice first just to be cautious? She couldn’t quite remember. Although she had mostly come back to herself in the hours since she had arrived at the hospital, there was still a gentle sort of brain fog in her head, making it hard to think about things that weren’t everyday issues.

But they had run all of their tests and seemed satisfied that she was safe to be released, so at least that was good. Unfortunately, it was two in the morning, too late to call any of her friends to ask for a ride, and she didn’t really have the energy to drive back home if she made it to her car.

Oh, her car! She had forgotten that she’d left it basically in the middle of the work road, door open and still running. There was no way that it wasn’t soaked and completely out of gas. Poor thing. As if her poor little junker needed anything else stacked up against it.

Granted, all the money she was getting on a biweekly basis had certainly helped her and her father a lot already. She was finally caught up with her bills, and they both had full fridges for once. Her tank had been consistently full for the first time in… well, since she had bought the old junker, and it was a nice feeling.

Maybe she could call some sort of rideshare thing? Wait, no, her phone was dead. Right. She had forgotten.

The nurse finished trundling her out to the waiting room, having insisted that she sit in a wheelchair while she was discharged, and she was surprised to see Sterling waiting right there. He had disappeared sometime while Elizabeth was sleeping, and she was sure that he’d gone home.

“You’re still here?” she asked cautiously.

“Of course,” he said, looking at her like it was strange to think that he would be anywhere else. “I had to use the restroom and then you were passed out, so I decided to take a walk rather than wake you. Parked my car in the garage too. By the time I came back, they told me you were being woken up and discharged, so I went back to the garage and got my car. Figured I’d just wait out here for you since they said you’d only be a couple of minutes.”

He’d done all that for her while she was out? Maybe it wasn’t really that much, but after years of taking care of herself, it boggled her mind that someone would jump through so many inconveniences just to make sure she had a ride.

Swallowing the strange rush of feelings that forced its way
