Chapter 16~Shattered Glass

Philip's P.O.V (warning : angst, hospitals)

I was vibing with Frances and Georges when I got a call from an unknown number. I assumed it was a telemarketer so I prepared to achieve comedy. (last name Goldberry first name Dean).

I picked up the phone and right away the person on the other line started talking. "Hey, this is Philip right? Theo's boyfriend?" They said frantically with a shaky voice. "Uh yeah, yeah. Who is this?" I said sitting upright in my seat. Frances and Georges turned their attention to me.

"Violetta but that's besides the point. This morning I found Theo in her apartment all...all..all bruised and beaten. The glass to her window was broken and I-" Violetta stoped saying what she was saying. "Wait, what the hell?! Where is she?" I asked, nerves filling my body.

After Violetta gave me her whereabouts I sped out the door straight to the hospital. The last time I remember being in a hospital was when my youngest sister Rachel was born. Rushing up to the front desk was a nightmare. "Hello sir, how may I help you?" The front desk lady asked.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hi  i'm here to see Theodosia Burr." I said. The lady typed something up on her computer. "Alright and can I see your ID?" She asked. I scrambled to get it out of my pocket. "Philip Hamilton...alright. She's in surgery right now but I can direct you to the waiting room." She said. "Yeah, okay. That's fine." I say, just wanting to get to her as soon as possible. 

"May I ask your relationship to her?" The lady asked. "I'm her boyfriend!" I pretty much yell. "Alright sir, the waiting room is just through that door." The lady says and points. "Thank you ma'am!"

-

Rushing through the door I see Violetta sitting in a chair fiddling with her hands and her leg bouncing up and down. I sit down next to her. "Hey...whats up Vi?" I asked, trying to hide my nerves.  "Oh Philip! Thank god your here!" She said giving me a hug. I quickly returned it. Anxiety was coursing through my veins.

Soon a lady comes out and walks over to me and Violetta. "So she's out of surgery but still unconscious. She should awake by tomorrow afternoon. at the latest hopefully. We can tell you full well, though that she will be recovering." The nurse explains.

"Alright, thank you." I said and began walking towards the room. "I'm sorry but I have to go. I have something important to attend to. Please when she wakes up call me." Violetta said, heading for the exit which seemed a bit sus but oh well. The nurse led me into Theo's room and my heart practically stopped at the sight of her like that.

My heart started beating extremely fast and I sat down in one of the chairs next to her bed.

-

I held Theo's hand as she lay unconscious. Then I heard it. The dreaded sound. Tears began stinging my eyes. The dreaded flat line of the heart monitor. 

The doctors had to rip met out of the room as  I yelled.

I woke up. Thank god it was just a dream. "Hey." A man said. I looked over to the other chair and saw Mr.Burr. "Hi, hi. I'm so sorry about Theo I-" I stuttered out. "Don't apologize, Hamilton. Its not like you had any to do with this." Mr.Burr said, suspicion filling his vocie at the end.

"I would drop dead before I did anything to hurt Theo, Mr.Burr. I assure you that." I say. He nods. "I know. My daughter seems to care about you very much. Although, I never expected my daughter to date a Hamilton." He said. I didn't know what to say about that. I just stared at Theo's practically lifeless body. Each beep of the heart monitor made my heart drop. Then my phone rang making me jump out of my skin.

I walk outside and answer the phone. "Hey mom. What is it?" I asked. "Well, your father told me that Mr.Burr left work early because something happen to Theo. I'm calling to make sure your okay. How is Theo?" I asked. "Yeah mom. I'm fine. I was told that Theo should be awake by tomorrow night at the latest." I informed her.

"That's good to hear. And I'm glad your okay."  Mom said through the other line. "What does dad think about all this?" I asked. "Heaven knows what your father is thinking. I can't read his expression for the life of me right now. He isn't saying a word right now, drowning himself in his work." Mom tells me.

"That sounds like dad. How are my oh so great younger siblings holding up right now?" I asked. "Their all doing fine, just your little brother is having girl troubles." Mom says. 

-

Visiting hours are over and I drag myself out of the hospital and back to the apartment. Frances and Georges had invited Susan over. The 4 of them tried to comfort me but it didn't do much good.

-

The next day I find myself once again in Theo's hospital room. The nurse told me she seems to be doing much better. I pull out my phone and start texting Angie to hopefully distract myself. Angie doesn't respond so i'm just left with my thoughts.

I glanced at Theo every five seconds. Then finally....she opened them. She opened her eyes. I check the time on my phone. 7 : 30 PM. "T-Theo?" I stuttered out. She looked at me dead in the eyes and sat up. "Philip?" She says. I pull her in and kiss her on the lips. "So Theo...do you remember what the guy looked like?" I asked as soon as she pulled away. She shook her head. "It was too dark." 

"I'm sorry thing, happened Theo." I said, taking her hand in mine. "Its alright, Philip. Its not like it was your fault or anything."

Later that day, Mr.Burr , along with my mom and Angie , came by to visit Theo. After about 3 days of her being in the hospital I was called to take her home.

(A/N : wow. okay this is the longest chapter i've written for this book in awhile. next chapter will just kinda be some fluff and stuff. uwu)
