You've been in love with Max since you can remember; your best friend and lover all in one. But it was easier said than done—she has never reciprocated your feelings.

Until this one, (feral) day that changed everything.

One second. That's all it took to get you to the hospital with broken bones. It's been a month since you saved Max's life by pushing her out from under the truck and as a result, you got hit by the vehicle yourself.

Max has always been the one with no romantic feelings for you at all. I mean, you were girl best friends. She's known you since you both turned 8 years old! You've been through everything together—middle school, high school, now college. She has never felt this scared before in her life, she would rather stand face to face with any monster she found scary back as a child than seeing you so bruised, broken and unconscious on the hospital bed. Sitting right next to it every day, Max has realized that you've done something that no one else wouldn't—saved her life.

You always have to be so protective, huh? From her parents divorce, through every heartbreak she went through, all the way to (literally) saving her life now.

It's been two weeks since you were discharged from the hospital. Not only something in your life changed, but you've noticed Max changed, too—she started acting more affectionate, always taking care of you. She's basically your babysitter now.

"Are you sure it's comfortable for you?" Max's frustrated and concerned voice echoes in the room, adjusting the pillow under your head for the hundredth time for the past good 10 minutes.
