you saved me

*one hour later*
*Jessy's POV*
I woke up to a whispering voice. "Yeah she's still out but she's moved a few times so it shouldn't be too much longer. How's Zack doing? Good, he needed to sleep. You got him to eat? Good." Confused, I opened my eyes to see Brian on the phone. "Alright man, talk to you in the morning." He said before hanging up.
"Brian?" My voice was hoarse. He walked over, sat down beside me and brushed the hair out of my face. "Why am I in the hospital?" I asked before he got a chance to speak. "You were in a fight." He explained, "do you remember?" The memory of the fight flooded back. "Where's Zack?" I asked. "Zack's at home." I started to panic, "alone?" I said as I tried to sit up. He gently pushed me back down, "Matt's with him." He said reassurringly.
"Do you know if the guy I fought with is okay?" I asked, suddenly concerned. Brian chuckled, "from what I heard he has a broken nose, some cracked ribbs and a concussion." "I beat him up that bad?" I whispered as I felt tears start to roll down my cheeks. "Don't cry," Brian said as he wipped my tears, "that bastard deserved it." "He did nothing to deserve something that bad!" Brian looked confused at my outburst. "All he did was shove Zack," I explained further, "I got mad and took it too far."
Brian shook his head, "don't you remember what he did to you?" I cocked my head to the side, confused. "He pulled out a knife and sliced you across your back while you were trying to comfort Zack." He bagan to explain, "that's when you tackled him and started throwing punches. While you were punching he sliced the inside of your arm." I held up my left arm to find it wrapped in bandages. "Well son of a bitch!" I said, "I guess he did deserve it." Brian started to laugh, "I told you he did."
"Why don't you go home man," I said once Brians laughter died down, "I'm good and you look tired as hell." Brian shook his head, "I promised Zack I'd stay with you." "Fine," I huffed, "but do me a favor and leave the room long enough for me to put something on other than this uncomfortable piece of shit gown the put me in." He chuckled and gave me a salute, "yes ma'am."
*the next morning*
*Zack's POV*
I woke up in an empty bed. "Where the hell is..... right, the hospital, I remember now." I mumbled. I slipped on a pair of sweat pants and headed down stairs. I reached the bottom to find Matt sleeping on the couch. Has he been there all night? I walked over and shook him to wake him up. "Matt go up and take my bed man, I know this couch is uncomfortable as hell." He stood up and headed for the stairs without protest. I heard a phone ringing. I instinctivly grabbed mine but then realized it was Jessy's. She had a text:
Flight's landing now. Can't wait to see you!
Shit! Tehya comes in today. I texted her back:
Leaving now.
I ran upstairs and to my room. "Zack?" Matt said, confused. "I heave to go pick up Jessy's friend from the airport," I explaned as I dug for a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. "Do you want me to....." he broke off in a yawn. "I'm good man, go to sleep." He nodded and crawled into the bed. I stopped in the bathroom long enough to throw on my clothes and half ass brush my hair before running down the stairs and out the door.
I got to the airport to find a woman standing outside alone. I pulled up infront of her and rolled down my window, "Tehya?" She nodded, "and you are?" "I'm Zack, Jessy's boyfriend." She nodded, "and where is Jessy?" "It's a kind of complicated story," I said with a chuckle, "let me help you with your bags and I'll explain on the way."
"You know your a much better catch than Will was." She said bluntly. "And why is that?" I asked cocking an eyebrow. "For one he never would've helped me with my bags. And you are way better looking." She explained.
"So," she said as I started to drive, "where's Jess?" "Well," I paused to think of the best wording for this, "she got in a bit of a bar fight last night and she's in the hospital." "That crazy damn bitch," Tehya laughed, "she just can't behave! So who'd she fight?" "Some guy who tried to hit on her then tried to fight me," I explained. She laughed harder, "classic Jessy!"

Notes

Doesn't tehya just seem like a fun character!?
