A/n hi here's another part. Enjoy!
Recap...I prayed that Layne was okay
We been here for over an hour with no updates on Layne.
"Hey Jaz?" I looked up at him and raised my eyebrows.
"I'm gonna go get a coffee and something to snack on from the convenient store a couple blocks away. The food here is terrible. Wanna come?" I shook my head no, my throat sore from crying. We both stood up and he gave me a really tight hug.
"I'll be back soon. If they allow him visitors, you need to see him. OK?" I nodded as a tear slipped down my cheek. He wiped it away with his thumb and hugged me again, this time longer. When he let go, I tried smiling but my face refused. He turned away and walked out the doors.
"Miss Gray?" I turned around and was met with a tired looking doctor holding a clipboard. He ran his hand through his black hair and sighed.
"Mister Hughman's responding well to the treatment and seems to be stable. However he broke his left arm, right leg and a couple ribs. He also has a mild concussion and he lost a lot of blood." I nodded trying not to cry again. The doctor patted my shoulder and smiled.
"Think about this. He is extremely lucky to be alive! He's just in a coma. He might wake up tomorrow or in a month. Only time will tell. But he's ALIVE so smile." I don't know how but a small smile crept onto my lips.
"Can I see him?" He nodded and motioned for me to follow. We walked down the crowded halls, dodging gurneys and rushed people. Finally we made it to Layne's room. The doctor turned to me and smiled.
"He'll be OK." He turned and walked away. I brought a shaky hand to the door knob and took a deep breath. I twisted it and stepped inside. There laid Layne, broken, beaten, and helpless.
"Layne.." I walked over to him, pulling a chair next to the bed. I sat down taking Layne's hand in my own. I pressed it to my cheek wishing he was awake. His skin was pale and as cold as ice. I studied his face, every cut, every bruise. Tears gathered in my eyes as I leaned toward him. I closed my eyes and planted a soft kiss on his cheek, a few tears sliding down my face. I leaned back, keeping my eyes closed. I squeezed his hand, which I hadn't let go, and slowly fell asleep.
*Dream*
"Cause all I am, is a man. I want the world, in my hands." The song Sweater Weather blasted through Layne's truck as we drove down the highway. I looked in front of us and noticed something. An 18-wheeler in the middle of the road.
"Layne?" I looked over to him but he just ignored me.
"Layne! Please stop the truck!! Layne!!" I begged him but he sped up instead. The truck was growing closer by the second.
"LAYNE STOP!!!!" I screamed at him, begged him. I closed my eyes and waited for the impact. The pain. But it never came. I opened my eyes, seeing that I was sitting on some grass by the road. I also saw Layne's truck smashed against the 18-wheeler.
"Layne!!!" I cried out even though I knew he couldn't hear me. I sobbed into my hands, telling myself that this wasn't real. Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and was met by my dead sister.
"Look at it...you're destroying everything." She looked down on me, her dull eyes seeing straight through me. I snapped my head away from her and looked at the wreck. Blood was seeping out from under the smashed vehicle. Layne's blood.
"You killed me...drove Mom insane... And now, you've killed Layne." A small smirk appeared on her pale face as more tears fell. I shook my head no, standing up.
"No...Layne is fine...you're lying." She let out a some what forced chuckle and shook her head.
"Am I?" With that Layne appeared next to her. I glanced back at the wreck which was gone now. Just an empty road. I looked back at them, fear filling me. He smiled but not his usual happy smile. No this smile was different...this smile was evil.
"Layne?" He pulled me into a hug, resting his head on my shoulder.
"You killed me, Jaz. And next thing you know, you'll have Jack killed, too." He whispered. He pulled away from me and let me fall to my knees. I looked up at them tears threatening to spill. That's when Jack appeared. This Jack was paler, more tired looking. He was different.
"Jasmine?" I didn't answer him, I just stared.
"Jaz, wake up and smell the roses." He came up to me and smiled. He knelt down looking me in the eyes and whispered.
"You are a monster." That's when everything went black.
*End of Dream*
I opened my eyes, only to realize I was still in Layne's hospital room. I felt a hand on my shoulder, shaking me slightly. I suddenly remembered my dream and flinched. I turned around quickly and saw it was Jack. The normal Jack. I let out a sigh of relief and rubbed my eyes.
"Jaz, we gotta go. Visiting hours are over." I nodded and stood up. I walked over to him, trying my best to not fall. Jack must've noticed because he turned around and pulled me onto his back. I wrapped my legs around his waist and he grabbed them, making sure I wouldn't fall. I put my arms around his neck and he carried me all the way to the truck. The last thing I remember was him buckling me in and me falling asleep.
