Chapter Nine

Scooter Bruan

She has been in surgery for hours. I could lose my little girl because of me. All of this is my fault.

"Where is she?" Justin came running in, with security behind him.

"She is still in surgery." I spoke still looking at the floor. Justin took a seat beside me. Tears began to fall from my eyes as I thought about all the memories we had. Even though there only a were few, I still treasure them.

"Scooter it's gonna be okay. Zoëy is a strong girl, she will make it through the surgery. Every things gonna be alright. You just have to believe in her."

"Thank you, but what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in Canada?" I asked wiping my eyes before looking up at him. "Yes, I am supposed to be in Canada, but I heard it on the news, so I came here as soon as I could. Even though Zoëy and I aren't together I still care for her."

"Justin, Zoëy is a complete mess without you. She has been doing drugs and I think she has depression."

He just sat back and looked around, like he was thinking about something.

"Scooter I got you some coffee." Yael said walking back with Amanda, Zoëy's mom, she handed him his coffee. " I'm sorry Justin, I didn't know you would be here, or else I would have gotten you something also." Yael said sitting on the opposite side of Scooter.

As hours went by, the waiting room filled with more people waiting to see Zoëy. Nash kept giving my dirty looks, along with most of her friends. All I can do right now is pace back forth, while very one else is either sleeping or went to the cafeteria. The parking lot is full because of fans, all of ours mixed in. The cops had to come and calm them.

"Justin maybe you should sit down and eat something." My mom said giving me a bagel and a cup of coffee. My family flew in from Canada early this morning.

"Mom I don't have an appetite right now." I said sitting down and began tapping my foot.

"Just we are all nervous and worried, but you have I eat something. You haven't eaten anything all morning and it's almost noon." She spoke softly. I took a bite out of the bagel and took a sip of coffee.

Once I was finished I took a seat next to mom and rested my head on her shoulder. "You should get some rest." She said patting my head. I slowly closed my eyes and began to drift off.

"I'm sorry for your loss Mr.Bieber." The doctor said . "What do you mean sorry for my loss?" I said betting worried. "I need see her!" I began run die. The hall to her room. The hall expand as I ran down the hall.

"NO! ZOËY, BABY I WILL GET TO YOU!" I screamed.

My eyes shoot open and I sat up quickly. "Justin are you okay?" My mom asked with a worried expression. "Y-yeah I'm fine, just a bad dream." I said sitting back.

"Mr and Mrs. Braun." A doctor called. They both walked over to him as I walked behind them towards the doctor. "How is she?" Amanda asked.

"I'm Zoëy's doctor, Dr.Williams. Zoëy has a fractured rib, she also has some minor bruises and scratches. Our main concern when we did an x-Ray on her head it came back and we are unclear if she has an bleeding in the brain."

Once I heard that I felt like the air had been knocked out of me.

"What if she has bleeding in the brain?" I asked becoming worried. "Well that can have numerous effects, such as a hemorrhage. That is a type of stroke and a artery in the brain bursts. It can also cause swelling of the brain or she could have a seizure."

"How is she right now?" Scooter said comforting Amanda and Yael. "Right now she is in a very bad state, she is at a high risk of dying. Sadly, she is in a coma. We don't know how long this will last, but we are running tests on her."

"Can we s-see her?" Yael asked sniffling a little.

"Yes, but only close family can see her" She said in a professional tone. "Justin you can see her first, I need to calm them down and tell everyone else the news." Scooter said walking back over to everyone else.

"She is in room 126." She said before walking away to attend to other patients.

I began to walk down the hall looking for her room. Once I found it I opened the door to find her lifeless body on the bed with machines hooked up to her.

I walked over to her bed and looked at we beautiful face. She had little bruises on her face, but she still looked beautiful. I took her cold hand in mine. I began to remember the times we had.

"We Zoëy I don't know if you can hear me, but I want you to know I am sorry for everything I said to you the day Madison told me what happened. I regret saying any of those things to you. Please stay with us. The world would be a sad and lonely place with out. Without you it would be hard for any of us to smile. J-just please stay strong." I began to break down and cry. "I believe you are a strong girl. You have been through things that most people your age haven't been through. Zoëy just know that I love you." Silence filled the room as I looked at her. Only thing that could be heard was the heart monitor. I kissed her hand before walking out the room to the waiting room, so the other could visit her.
