My life so far

The Wait Begins

I woke up from a very long sleep and got ready. My mum, her name's Nikki, came downstairs and was ready to take me to the hospital. On our way we stopped at McDonalds to grab something to eat. I decided to grab a hot chocolate and some hash browns. We got to the hospital and mum said "would you like me to come in with you?", "No thanks, I should be fine. Pick me up at 12:00?", I replied nervously. "Ok then. Stay strong, everything will be fine. I'll see you at 12:00".

I put on a brave face as I got out of the car as I was terribly worried about him. I entered the hospital, pushing the doors in front of me, and approached the reception desk. "Ashton Agar", I say, trying to hold all emotions in. "Up the stairs, to the left, down the hall, to the right and it should be room 346".
I carefully remember what the receptionist had told me and I make my way to his room. I push open the doors and the room is split into four sections. I walk through looking for him and he's in the back left corner. I walked over to his bed and sat in the chair that had his cricket jumper on. I pick it up and sit down, holding onto it tightly. I started to talk to him about how much everyone was wishing him well and how much I had missed him. I told him I loved him too much for him to give up on me at this age.

It was nearly time to leave so I left a hand written note by his side with a small bear. I kissed his forehead and started to leave the room. I looked back at him one last time and left the room. I made my way down the stairs into the reception area when all of a sudden there's all this flashing going on. I go over to the reception desk and ask " Is that paparazzi"? Leaning over the desk she replies " yes, I believe so".

I don't believe what is happening right now so I make my way out the door. I'm stopped by a huge group, the paparazzi..
I'm not a huge fan of them because they always invade people's privacy and make them feel so bad.
I push past them and run off to mum's car. I tell her to leave quickly and start to flick through different radio stations. Nothing much was on so we just listened to news. We were listening carefully to the details of a car crash and then the next story was about me! The news about Ashton had spread. All I can think about is the stress of putting up with paparazzi for the next month.

Mum pulls into the drive way and hands me the keys. I run up to my room and slam the door behind me. I flop onto my bed and start crying into my pillow. "What will I do without him"? "How am I going to stay happy"? All these different thoughts start going through my head. It's all too much for me to handle....
