Once upon a time

chapter 26

There is still hope.

Maybe we don't have to let him go. 

Edward's pov

Soft annoying beeping...

Can't someone just turn it off? I'm trying to sleep here! 

I slowly open my eyes and am blinded with bright white lights, I have the blink a few times before I can see anything. I look around the room to see that I'm in an all white room that's definitely not mine, I notice someone holding my hand and I look to the side to see Louis sitting there with his eyes closed and with obvious bags under his eyes. Has he been sleeping enough? 

Where even am I? And why am I so tired? 

I squeeze Louis' hand in the hope that he will wake up which he actually does, He jumps up and looks at me with wide eyes that then get teary. "E-Edward?" Why is he so shocked? 

"Lou baby." My voice is raspy and raw making me frown, what is going on? Louis reaches over me and presses a red button and that's when I realize it, I'm in a hospital... How long have I been here? What's wrong with me. 

The door opens and a nurse walks in, her eyes widen when she sees me staring at her "Mr. Styles you have woken up that's perfect and right on time." I look at her in confusion "What happened?" I rasp out again and I feel louis squeeze my hand. 

"Well Mr. Styles you have been in a coma for 13 days now and we were worried that you wouldn't pull through but thankfully you did." Ok what the fuck. I look over to Louis does he know what happened? Wait where are my brothers? Did they...?

Louis must have seen the panic on my face and he rubs my hand gently "Marcel and Harry will be here soon, they will be so happy." I nod and look back at the nurse who is looking at the machine that's making the annoying beeping sound. 

"Can you turn that off? It's fucking annoying." The nurse gives me a shocked look and then shakes her head "For someone who got shot 3 times and almost died you have a lot attitude." 

I was shot? That's when all the memories come rushing back, Jerry and his men, did Ron even get out? What happened to Jerry? 

I wait for the nurse to leave the room to ask Louis "What happened to Jerry?" Louis smiles "He's gone." I smile softly knowing that Ron must have done that for me "Thank you Edward, you were very stupid for doing this and you scared us all but thank you, Thanks to this is will have Liam back soon." Louis presses a soft kiss on my lips making my heart flutter slightly he's happy with me. 

The door flies open and in walk my dumb brothers both with wide smiles on their faces "Eddie! You are awake!" Harry yells out making me roll my eyes "Almost dying didn't make you more friendly I see." Marcel mumbles out but the smile on his face says that he doesn't hate it. 

"We were so scared that you wouldn't make it..." Louis mumbles out and I notice the tears in his eyes making me frown, I reach my hand out and cup his cheek "I would never leave you my love especially not with dumb and dumber here." I press a soft kiss to his lips while smirking at the groaning sound of Marcel and Harry. 

"If I had know that he would have this attitude I would have pulled the plug myself right away." Harry says in a joking matter. I smirk and look at him "You couldn't live without me." 

Suddenly I feel very tired and my eyes start dropping while I listen to Harry and Marcel talk about what has been going on with the business. 

Louis' pov 

I smile down at Edward as I notice that he has fallen asleep again, the doctor explained to us a few days ago that if he would wake up that he would be very tired and sore. 

I look up to Harry and Marcel "Should we go talk to the doctor and find out when she can come home? Because I think that Edward will be out for a bit." They both nod and grab my hands and lead me to where the doctor her office is. 

I'm about to knock when the door already opens to show a smiling doctor "I heard the news of him waking up! That's amazing I'm so happy for you." I smile back at her and we walk into her office and sit down in front of the desk with the doctor across of her "So I obviously know that you are here to ask when he can come home and I think that he could go home this afternoon after we check up on him but he will have to be on bed rest and only walk when really needed."

The three of us smile like a crazy, happy with the news that our Edward is coming home with us. 

Little did we know that someone else was also coming home...

:) short but I don't care. I didn't kill him because I'm sure that ya'll would kill me :)
