I jolt up in my bed... wait.... my bed? what happened? I open my eyes and all I see is white. what the heck is going on? what happened? WAIT!!

 'Dad!?!?!' I scream. frantically looking around for him. Then my eyes finally adjust and I see a guy sitting on the chairs just staring at me with wide eyes. wait a minute... I think I know him...

'Ethan?' the guy gets up slowly and walks towards me. 'yes this is Ethan. Ellie are you okay?' he asks. 'well considering the last thing I remember is seeing my dad, no I'm not okay. what happened?' 

he looks at me in a sad way. 'Ellie, that was a dream. the last thing that happened was you tripped and fell and broke your arm. you had to go into surgery because it was cut clean in half and was sticking out of your skin.'

what. 'so I didn't actually see me dad and I broke my arm by tripping?' I ask to make sure I got my facts straight. 

he hesitates 'no you didn't actually see him, I am so sorry! and yes that's how you broke your arm.'

I don't know why but I started uncontrollably laughing. like do you ever have those moments where you just start randomly laughing and can't stop? yeah, that's me right now. and it's kinda creeping me out...

'um... Ellie, are you okay? why are you laughing?' Ethan asks. that just makes me laugh even more. the look on his face is priceless!! he looks so confused yet worried all at the same time. 

------------------------------------------------After I finally stop laughing----------------------------------------------------

I finally get my laughter under control right when the doctor comes in. 'ah! I see that you're awake now Eleanor.' ew I hate my full name. i just nod.

'well my reports say that you have to stay here one more night just for observation. you will need your cast on for 5 months and you have stitches. oh! on the bright side your cast is water-proof and baby blue!' he says with way too much enthusiasm. 

'Thank you so much for taking care of me. But do I really have to stay one more night? I'm well enough to go home right now I promise!' I am practically begging him to let me go home. I hate hospitals and I don't need sympathy from anyone.

'You can go home but I strongly advise you to stay here. If you go home now you may be very tired and moody.' he warns. haha I am already both of those so no harm done right? ..... well I hope...

' Great! I'll just change into my clothes and get those papers signed and I'm ready to go!' I grin

'Ellie, I think you should stay one more night, I don't want you any more hurt then what you already are.' Ethan says out of nowhere. Whoops... I forgot he was even here!

'Thanks for caring but really, I'm fine. It's just a broken arm. everybody gets those. Look on the bright side, once it heals; my arm will be stronger! then I can destroy you in arm wrestling!' I laugh. Ethan just shakes his head. 'fine, under one condition.' 

'oh no.' those words are never good! 'Don't oh no! gosh, you have no faith in me!' he says jokingly. 'but really. IF you go today, you have to promise you will take it easy and don't do anything stupid.'

'wow! now you're the one with no faith!' I laugh trying to avoid the question. Ethan just gives me the look. ' will you do it?'

'fine.'
