Chapter 22- A Road to You

I opened my eyes slowly to see a deathly silent waiting room with the occasional phone ringing from behind the desk. I felt an arm resting on my shoulder, and for a second, I thought it was Pj's. It belonged to Phil, who was holding me tight but still fast asleep. Dan was no where to be seen. Charlie was asleep, legs laid out on four chairs and Carrie was sleeping on her hands in the corner. Everyone looked so peaceful.
I checked the clock to see it was only 4:00 AM. Gently moving Phil's hand off my shoulder, I took a sip of my cold coffee and threw it away. Walking towards the glass doors, I waited for the go ahead from the woman at the desk. It was the same woman that came in to talk to me the other day when I was with Pj. She smiled and beeped me through.

I walked the empty halls looking in on all the patients, most of them unconscious. Patient after patient, until I saw this one girl, Dan by her side.

Dans P.O.V

I trudged out of the room Pj was being kept in, but not before another look at his badly bruised body. I was filled with so much regret. Questioning the what ifs? As in, what if he never went out that night? What would of happened if I were to help him? To be of any use at all? Just...Why? I walked out the door for good, heading down the hallway. I should just go. Leave and never come back. I just need to do what's right. I wasn't there for him, so I might as well it even be there at all. I began to walk faster, speeding down the long hall. I can leave now and no one will know. I'll have to tell Phil though when I go to pick up my stuff at the flat...
" Stay clear! We've got a critical patient!" I heard a doctor yell as I jumped to the right. Forgetting my thoughts temporarily, I watched as they rushed a girl who looked to be in her early twenties away to a back room. Light red-brown hair covered her shoulders. Her face still, yet full of emotion. For a moment, all I did was watch her getting farther and farther away. Then I realized, right then, I knew. Leaving my friends, my past, it wouldn't help. I can't keep hiding around corners watching from afar. Leaving someone's future in the hands of a stranger. I can take control. I can help. I want to help. Its about time I didn't run away from the problem. I felt something towards this girl, a sort of responsibility I needed to uphold. I won't run this time. Then, I ran.
Towards her, the girl. She needed to live, for me.
