《The Mistake》Chapter Nineteen

Song "Smash Into You" Beyoncé
"Ughh..." Jonah groans at his pounding headache one hand reaching to rub his temple.
The bright sunlight coming through the big glass windows only worsening his hangover. Pushing himself up the couch blinking once then twice.
"Shit!" when realization hits him that he was sleeping on the living room couch with no clue as to where Mindy is.
Dashing up the stairs, he races to her room only to find it vacant. "Where the hell is she? Oh god did she get away!"
Searching his own room only to come up with the same result, he runs back down now fully awake. His heart was racing along with him fearing that he have lost her. Arriving back on ground level, the scene that he fail to take in earlier stops him in his track.
Slowly making his way to the broken vase his heart drop when he saw blood on the rug. His eyes trace the blood leaving a trail of little drops here and there leading to the door.
"What the fuck did I do?" he whispered.
Flashes of memories course through his mind.
"Shit Mindy!" He sprint to the door, fully aware of his actions last night.
Opening the door he spots her lifeless body lying on the deck. Her face pale as a ghost, hair and clothes still wet from last night's storm.
"Mindy oh god," his heart sink at the image before him.
Digging in his pocket, he pulls out the key to the metal chain dropping to his knee he unhooks her ankle and immediately pull her body into his embrace. Her body was cold against his warm skin. Placing her head onto his chest, his free hand brushes her loose hair off her face.
"Oh my god what have I done. Wake up Mindy. Wake up!" his voice begins to panic.
Picking her limb body up, he takes her into the house directly to his bedroom. Laying her down on the bed, he went to retrieve his phone.
Dialing his best friend, Jordan, someone who he trusted with his life, not only for the fact that they grew up together, but because Jordan was also a doctor.
"Jordan I need your help now. Come to Serene. It's a medical emergency bring everything you have."

With that he hangs up setting the phone down on the night stand before returning to Mindy's side. Realizing that her clothing was still soaked, he went into her room and grab her a pair of her navy blue boy short underwear. It was the first thing he saw.
Returning to his room he grabs a white button up shirt out of his closet. Moving to sit next to her unconscious body he lays the blanket over her.
"Sorry but I have to change you out of those clothes."
His hands reach under the blanket and pulls off her legging deeply inhaling before moving onto her underwear. Turning his face away instinctively, he pulls off her underwear. He then slides on her boy shorts. For the first time since he's touch her, his manhood didn't beg for release. His mind was too worried and focus on her. He picks up her body setting it against him her head in his shoulder as he begin to work on her shirt. Closing his eyes he lifts the shirt off of her continuing with her bra right after. Putting his shirt on her tiny frame he finally lays her back down.
He takes her wet clothing to the bathroom before returning by her side. Examining the cut on her leg it had stopped bleeding by now but he hadn't a clue how much blood she had lost.
"I'm so sorry Mindy. Please be alright." He takes her hands in his clasping them together guilt coursing its way through his body.
His heart pain seeing her like this knowing he was the cause of it. The thought of losing her forever frightens him and he cannot let that happen. He knew then and there that he held feelings for the girl. Strong feelings.
Holding both of her hands in one against his chest, he moves his right hand to her face brushing her loose curls back. Leaning in, he positions his head against hers, forehead to forehead nose touching.
"I'm so sorry. Please wake up my princess." He whispers laying a kiss on her lips.

Jordan walks out of Jonah's bedroom after having fully examined and taken care of Mindy while Jonah was anxiously waiting in the hallway.
"How is she? Is everything alright?" Jonah rushed out his mouth.

"She's okay...for now." Replied Jordan.
"What do you mean for now?" Jonah panicked.
"Jonah, she lost a good amount of blood and has a high fever. You won't let me take her to the hospital. The best I can do was stitch her up, give her a couple shots, medicine and hook her up to an IV."
"I'm sorry but she can't go to the hospital." He said turning his head away from his best friend.
"Don't worry, she will be fine. She will live if that's what you are worried about. Her healing process will just be much slower than what it would be at the hospital. You will have to nurse her closely and call me if anything usual is happening. Replace her IV when it empties. I know you know how to do that and I also left a tube of ointment for the cut. I will be back in a couple of days to check on her progress." Jordan reassures him.
"Thank you Jordan." Jonah sincerely said.
Jordan grabs his bag and walks past Jonah but not before turning back around putting his right hand on Jonah's right shoulder.
"I don't know what's going on here but I know you Jonah. Stop what you are doing. You're killing the girl." With that Jordan leaves.
Jonah took a minute to think about what his best friend said. He knew his friend was right but he just can't let her go. Not yet.
*****
"She hasn't woken up yet!" Jonah shouts through the phone at his best friend.
"Dude I was just there checking up on her yesterday. Besides her fever that comes and goes, everything is back to normal. If you're really worry bring her in." Jordan says.
"You are no help!" frustrated Jonah hangs up on him.
It's been three days since Mindy's been out and uneasiness was starting to take its toll over him. He can barely eat or focus on anything. He's spend the last three days staying by her bedside making sure her fever was in check wiping her down when needed, and changing her outfits never failing to dress her in one of his shirts. He's been sleeping on a chair next to her holding her hand to sleep. Yesterday his friend stop by taking out her IV and changing the bandage.
It was already evening and she still hasn't wake. He sat on his usual position on the chair and takes her hand in his.
"Wake up my princess. It's no fun with you like this. I miss your naggings and our fights." He half yawns out.
Her breathing suddenly quicken and eyes press together as if having a terrible nightmare.
"Help me," Mindy breathlessly says in her sleep.
Jonah immediately shots up out of the chair. This was the first time she's made some kind of reaction since he's taken her in.
"Mindy, baby what's wrong?"
"Help me, it hurts. Mom dad, I'm scare."
Her hands move to clasp tightly on his.
"It's okay baby I'm here." He held her hands back. "Shhh. I'm here."
"C..c..cold. I'm cold." Her body reacting with a shiver.
"Cold. You're cold. Don't worry. Here."
He gets onto the bed lying down next to her positioning her onto him. He lays her head against his chest while wrapping his arms around her body. Her arms moves to wrap around his torso on her own. Pulling the blanket over them both he draws her in closer.
Her whimpering calm as there body trade heat.
"Goodnight my princess." He says kissing her head gently before succumbing to sleep himself.
The next morning, Jonah wakes up with Mindy still tightly wrapped around his arms. A warm feeling creeps to his heart and a smile forms on his face. Looking at her face first thing in the morning was something he knew he can get used to. It just felt so right.
The colors on her face have return to normal he noticed. She shift slightly in his arms, pressing her head onto his chest more. Inhaling deeply, a too familiar scent tickles her nose. A smile spread across her face, as her brow scrunches together before her eyes flew open. She was met with a hard chest. Tilting her head back she stares into a pair of warm ocean blue eyes.
"Good morning princess. Welcome back." Jonah smirked.
