💘 The daydreamers 💘

Time is very short

Everything got very bright, almost blinding. I heard a hospital monitor and I heard talking around me which sounded like Ray and them,

"do you think she's gonna wake up?"

"i dunno sunburn, maybe not-"

"she's gonna wake up ray."

"fuckshit, we have to see what happens."

"i know she's finna wake up, i know it."

"look, i'm gonna go get some food. you guys wanna come?"

"sure."

"okay."

"i'm gonna stay just in case she wakes up."

"alright, we'll be back later fuckshit."

I wanted to say something, anything. My body slowly started to come back when I heard this,

"i don't know if you can hear me but i miss you baby, it's been a month and i can't sleep at night because you're not there with me. i know you're gonna wake up, i just know it mami."

He held my hand and said softly

"don't worry mamas, i'm not going anywhere."

My hand started tingling and I squeezed his hand as hard as I could, if I'm being honest at the time it probably wasn't that hard.

I groaned a bit before opening my eyes and he gave me a hug, this time I could actually hug him back. He was in tears and I was glad I was back,

"i'm glad you're here babes."

"me too dipshit."

He gave me a kiss and it felt amazing,

"i missed you olan."

"me too, me too..."

"what day is it?"

"um, it's October the 24th."

"shit, I was out for a month?"

"yeah, crazy."

"lemme fucking guess, Angela got away like she always does?"

"surprisingly, not this time."

He went over to Fourth Grades bag and pulled out a tape, he put it in the tv and turned it on. He came over and sat on the bed as I sat up with him, it was a news report from the day I got stabbed.

"Local student Aris Martinez
at Venice High School was stabbed this morning and is now in critical condition, the students responsible are Angela Miller and Aiden Maine. According to a fellow classmate Ryder McLaughlin Angela gave her a note stating she was going to stab her in the back with a knife, Aris's friend Olan Prenatt who was also harassed by those students witnessed her getting assaulted.
Those students have been taken into custody waiting their court hearing tomorrow."

"holy fucking shit."

The tape finished going and he got up before he turned it off, I lifted up my shirt to see the stitches of my scar.

"So your name is Aris?"

"Yeah, Syd is just my other alias."

"you wanna know something?"

"what?"

"we have to go to court tomorrow."

"well then i'm down, if I have to go i'm finna go."

He nodded and I gave him another hug, he hugged me back and he started to tear up.

"i'm glad you're okay mamas..."
