Harley When I was told I could go in. I stood up. I looked over at Carson's father but said noting and walked to Carson's room.

Carson My eyelids fluttered open when I heard the door close. "Harley?" I asked groggily. I tried to get up, but my shoulder killed. I layed back down, feeling like I would throw up or pass out. "What happened?"

Harley I stepped over to his side and took his hand. "You got your surgery today." I explained gently.

Carson I moaned. "It hurts a lot." I took my hand from hers, putting it up to my shoulder to feel. I yelped when I touched a sore spot and put it back by my side. "I think it made things worse." I said.

Harley "Shh" I said softly. "It's going to hurt for a while but you will be better." I took his hand again and looked up when I heard his father come in. I smiled softly and took a step back.

Carson "Dad?" I said, looking up. He didn't say much but came over and examined my shoulder. "Hey. I just had surgery on my shoulder. I don't think I should play baseball for a while but-" He shushed me and look at my shoulder a little bit longer, then at something the doctor wrote, then at Harley. He looked irritated. All of a sudden, I just got really tired or overwhelmed or sad or something. "Can I get a drink of water?" I asked weakly. Someone handed me a cup and I took a slow drink.

Harley I leaned slightly on the wall giving the two space. I stayed quiet, not wanting to get involved or in the way.

Carson My dad looked at me and sighed. "It's going to take a lot of work to get that swing back. You can't let anything-" he gave a nasty look towards harley. "girls or grades or that stupid jouralist class youre taking- distract you. If I don't think you're working, you're coming right home." he grabbed my arm and gave it the death squeeze, something I was familiar with; partly because I get it all the time, partly cause I have it. The way he talked about all of it- Harley, school, and that stuff, made me mad. Really mad. Maybe it was part the medicine, or my sore shoulder, or maybe I was just sick of him bossing me around. It took all my strength, but I went forward, scratching or punching or something- just trying to make harm. A couple doctors came and forced me back into the bed.

Harley I bit my lip but jumped up. "Apparently I did have to do something about his dead. I was small but my strength should never be doubted. I took his father by the arm and dragged him out of the room. "Are you kidding me?" I asked loudly. "Your son is in there and just had surgery and all you can think about is how soon he will be on a professional team. He does not need you stressing him out or pushing him to do more. He does that himself. What he needs is your support so he can heal and so he can get back in the game." My shy disposition was gone. I had someone to stand up for and when I had someone or something to stand up for I did.

Carson I bit my lip and I heard them in the hallway. The doctor gave me some medicine and I fell back asleep.
Max (Carson's dad lol) I rolled my eyes. "You're just a little girl. You wouldn't know anything. How long have you known him, a week?" I sneered. " He needs to be pushed to work. I'm not going to let him throw away all that I've invested in his baseball career for some girl or other dream." I started walking down the hallway. It had been a long day and I wanted to go to my hotel room. "Tell him I'll talk to him tomorrow." I called a taxi and Waited outside.

Harley "I think I would know." I called out angrily as he left his son. I shook my head and clenched my fists. After taking a few deep breaths and calming down I realized all of the nasty things that had been pointed in my direction. He had no idea who I was and no right to judge. I wiped away a few tears and hoped my eyes weren't to red. Carefully, I opened the door and quietly took a seat near Carson.

Carson I don't know how long I slept, but I think it was a while because all the doctors were gone. Probably for lunch or supper or something. I looked at Harley, who looked upset. "Hey." I put my hand on her cheek for a second. "You alright?"

Harley I nodded and gave him a shaky smile that wavered slightly. "As long as you're okay."

Carson "Hey," I said, a little worried. "don't listen to anything he says. I don't even know why a came." I bit my lip and looked down.

Harley "He came because deep down he cares." I said softly. I kissed his cheek and got up. "Im going to get something from the vending machine. Want anything?" I asked softly.
