Love is for the Lucky Ones

Chapter 11

{Mae's POV}

Cain and I were laying in bed relaxing, peacefully, when his phone rang.

Cain picked up the phone and I sat up.

"Hello?" He called out. I heard murmurs back from the phone and Cain stood up and paced the floor. I gave him a worried glance ad he threw his hand over his mouth. He nodded into the phone as if they could see him. A silent "okay" escaped his mouth.

He hung up the phone and walked over to me. He pulled my arm up. I winced in pain. "Get up, get dressed, and meet me in the car." He says quickly throwing on a shirt and pulling some jeans on over his boxers.

I get out of bed and change my pants and shirt. I race down the hallway wondering what could be so important that we had to leave now. I get down to where the car is and find Cain already in the car, with it running.

I jump in the passenger side and Cain floors the gas pedal. We zip out of there and speed down the road. "Honey, slow down. Your going to have an accident."

Cain ignored me and replied, "I'm not the one who already had." I look at him oddly but he doesn't take his eyes off the road.

We show up in front of the hospital a couple of minutes later. I look at him worriedly as if asking "what happened?" He look back at me. He gently takes my hand, intertwining our fingers together, and walk inside.

We stop at the front desk and Cain motions for me to sit down in the waiting section while he talks to the lady. I walk over and sit down in the bright blue chairs. I immediately sink down into chairs and sigh. I hope nothing bad has actually happened but I couldn't think of another reason why I would be here with him.

I look back at Cain who was talking to the lady. I couldn't quite make out what they were saying but he kept looking back at me with a fake smile. I half smiled back and my heart began to race. Something was defiantly wrong. The last time I saw that smile was at the game of Truth or Dare when he told me he slept with Cassie.

The lady spoke more loudly now as she told Cain to follower her. He motioned me to follow but I was already on my feet. I caught up with Cain and looked into his eyes. His deep brown eyes filled with guilt and sorrow. He shook his head and just stared at me.

The woman stopped at a door and said, "Ms. Anne, you have some visitors."

My heart pounded and I stopped dead in my tracks. I didn't want to walk in, it wasn't true. Anne was Gina's last name. Wasn't she in her dorm this morning. This couldn't be true. It couldn't be. Cain looks at me.

"You okay?" He asks me worriedly. I shake my head not letting the words escape my mouth.

"Why-why-why didn't you tell me. Why?" I managed to stutter out, wiping a single tear falling from my face.

"Because, I didn't want to worry you."

"Why would it worry me, I mean I have faith that she will be okay."

"Because," he takes a long pause, mastering up the courage to say, "Brody was with her, but isn't here, now." He says quietly.

I hide my face in his shirt and walk into her room.

A frown comes across my face and he hugs me. I wipe tears from my face, smile and we both walk into the room.

Gina lays lifeless on her hospital bed. Wires and mechanisms were attached all over her body. I walk to her bedside and a small, helpless chuckle escapes her throat. A tear rolls down my face.

"I'm sorry," she gasps for breath, "He was drunk and I," she stutters a broken voices, "they couldn't save h-h-him..."

A tear rolls down my face and I hug Gina. "It will be okay. I'm just glad that you are not hurt, that you are okay." I sigh and smile, "I'm lucky I still have one of my best friends." I wipe a tear from my cheek.

Gina burst into tears, but not sad ones, happy one. Tears of joy. "Thanks you for always being there. Thank you, your the best friend I could ever ask for."

Cain pats me on my back reassuringly and I look at him. In that moment all was good.

But, I took my eyes off for one second and when I turn back around I gasp.

"Gina!"
