Together (Jacob Whitesides Fanfiction)

chapter 9

song for the chapter: Titanium cover by Jasmine Thompson (keep it on repeat as always and I STRONGLY suggest you play the music. it makes the story so much better and it intensifies your emotions. reading the story without the music is kinda like French fries with no ketchup. still good but not AS good. haha)
-----------------------------------
it felt like I was just going through the motions. I want him to remember me and in order to get that I need to work with him and help him through this. I don't want to break down in front of him. he needs me. he needs someone. he doesn't really have any friends at school expect for me he's so loud when you get to know him but he's so shy and insecure at first. It's cute.

I'm going to see him and I'm going to help him fight this amnesia. it's the least I can do. I'm bound and determined. he will remember. I throw on a black shirt, black sweat pants, and rain boots. I run to my car. I jump in and I go as fast as I can. I speed. I hit the breaks in my parking space in the hospital. I run to his room. tears rushing down my cheeks. I finally find the room. his parents aren't here. they both have jobs that make them work a lot so they're not home a lot. I see jacob he's asleep. he looks so perfect. I try to wipe away the tears. I go up to him and I hug him as tight as I can. I hear him slowly wake up. he wraps his arms around me. he remembers me. oh my god he remembers me. I starts to cry but quickly stop myself. I reluctantly pull away. I sniffle a little.
"Jacob do you remember my name?" I pull a chair up next to him and sit down. he looks down embarrassed.
"It starts with an A doesn't it?" I force a smile.
"It's Audrey" he mumbles something I can't hear. there's an awkward silence.
"were we a couple?" he stops himself and quickly says
"I mean were we close?" I laugh a little to myself.
"no but we were close." I wait a little bit.
"wanna know a secret?" he nods his head yes.
"I had a bit of a crush on you. but don't tell anyone I told you." he laughed and blushed a little.

all of a sudden he starts to have a seizure. I froze. I started to scream and cry.
"Help! he's having a seizure! help!" I break down.
"Someone get the fuck in here! he's dying!"
nurses rush in. he finally stops. I can't really tell what they're doing. the room goes silent excepts for a long beep. I stop breathing. the heart monitor. his heart stopped. no. I start to cry. I see them put a small tube inside of him and start pumping this ball type thing. I start to hyperventilate. I pull myself out of my chair and on to the floor. I can't hear anyone around me. I feel like a spectator just looking in. not actually there.

I curl up on the ground. I sob for what feels like hours. I fall asleep.

|dream|

I'm at Jacobs house again. in the back yard with the pool but everything seems dead and dull and sad. all the grass is dead. I turn around and look at the house. there's no sound and no one in sight. the wood on the house is rotting and the windows are broken. it looks run down and abandoned. no one tells me he's dead but I can just feel it. I start to cry. I fall to the ground. I see Jacobs face. but lifeless. I start to shake. but not me myself. it feels like something else is shaking me.

|reality|

there is a nurse shaking me. i immediately ask

"how long have I been asleep?" she looks concerned but also like she was bearing good news.

"oh honey it's only been about 30 or 40 minutes. Jacobs fine. his heart is steady now. I'm not sure when we'll be able to let him out of the hospital. we're thinking the seizures could have been caused by the concussion he got in the car crash. he may have to have surgery." the surgery part was kind of a question.

"uh can you call his mom? it's not really up to me." it feels like a weight has been lifted off of me. I felt so happy but so exhausted. I thought for sure he was dead.

I pull myself off of the ground. my body ached all over. I see jacob sleeping soundly. I walk over to him. I lay down on his bed next to him. he wakes up a little and scoots over. he rolls over to facing me and I turn towards the wall. he puts his arms around me and jolt of electricity courses through me. we both drift off back to sleep. I love this boy.
