Coma (Chapter 13)

Tom's POV

I felt bad. I felt bad for everything.
I should have understood her and kept my dumbass mouth shut.

I saw her walk away, with me feeling guilt. I shouldn't have blamed her for bill being in a coma I shouldn't have blamed her for anything actually..

The doctor came in, my thoughts completely drifting. "Good news and bad news." He paused. "Which one first?"

I took a deep breath before answering. "Bad." The doctor raised his eyebrows and sighed.

"Well, the bad news is --" The doctor placed his forms on the table next to bill. "He won't wake up for several weeks. It's a pretty rare condition for him to wake up for.."

Oh.. fuck. Wait, he feels bad. Why the hell does he feel bad? "I know the bond you and your twin have." He turned around and looked at me, with a serious expression in his face but also with.. a disappointed one?

"There's a possible chance that he'll stay in this condition for more than a year. And if it's more than 5 or 10 years, you guys can always consider pulling the plug." Is he serious? He can stay in a coma for 50 years and I still wouldn't pull the fucking plug!

"I won't pull the goddamn plug." I said sternly and paused, looking at his face. "Ever." He pursed his lips and made a loud but understanding sigh.

"I understand, sir. No one's stopping you but yourself." The doctor made an awkward smile. "Good news is, we're possible he'll live." The doctor spoke then went for the door.

I hate this. I hate everything that's been happening. I know any of this isn't Laurie's fault but ever since she came here, absolute hell has been happening..

But I didn't give a shit. I want her here more than anybody. Well -- except bill, I think.

Georg and gustav busted through the door, making a loud noise. "How's bill?" Gustav nearly yelled curiously.
"Oh fuck!" Georg shouted when he saw the sight of bill, in a coma at the bed.

"This is all my fault! I shouldn't have pulled that stupid fucking stunt!"
I rolled my eyes at georg then looked at him directly in the eye. "But you did. And there's no changing that."

Georg was speechless and as for gustav, he only made an expression I can't quite understand. "Are you really that emotionless, tom?" Georg spoke as he walked close to where I was.

Gustav gulped and went closer to me and georg. "Okay!" Gustav quickly went Infront of us both, trying hard to calm us down. "Let's not do this right now, especially when bill is lying in a bed, in a freaking coma! While Laurie is nowhere to be even seen."

"Probably left us like how we left her. Except no letter." Georg scoffed at my words and folded his arms. So, what? Does he think he's mister fucking tough guy now?

"Laurie won't leave us. Now let's just clear the air and move on." "Move on? He's in a fucking coma!" I lifted my arms and pointed at bill as I shouted.

"Calm down! I mean, let's move on from the shitty fight, do you think I'd let us move on from bill? If you do, you don't know me and you, yourself are mentally insane."

I raised both of my hands up, my eyes widening sarcastically as I stood up.
"I'm not dealing with this shit, while there's a possibility where he has a chance of dying." I roughly grabbed my coat and went outside the door.

I was so fucking excited to leave here then I saw.. Reya? "Oh shit, are you alright?" Oh right, god... my face is absolutely messed up right now. Once I realized, I avoided eye contact with her.

"I'm fine. I have to go." As I was about to leave, Reya grabbed my arm then slowly looked at me, my face being exposed.. She chuckled. "Well that's obvious."

She began to walk, still holding a firm grip on my arm. "You can tell me. Or if you don't want, then don't. I can't really force you, can I?" She smiled. "Just let me help you get your face fixed up."

Why is she being nice after our last conversation? Does she want something from me? And then it hit me. Sex. "Well, I'm sorry but I'm not actually in the mood right now."

We're now standing in the elevator. Reya furrowed her eyebrows, curiously. "Not in the mood for me fixing your face? Clearly, you look like you got in a fig --" "I'm not in the mood for sex."

She gasped and bursted out laughing. Oh fuck, did she not mean sex? This day could not get any worse. "Well first of all, that's a first!" She paused for a second to made a faint laugh. "And second of all, I'm not looking for a sex with you, darling." Shit, my face is red out of embarrassment right now. "It's not my fault I'm used to it!"
I said defensively which just made her laugh more. Damn. There's that gorgeous smile again.

"Okay, okay, in all seriousness -- did you get in a fight and cry?" I didn't know what to say. Do I tell her everything? Seems like Laurie hasn't.

"I got in a fight earlier. And as for my stupid puffy red eyes, bill's in a coma. And I almost blamed Laurie for it."

"What --" I cut her off. "I know. But I didn't, okay? She's been living in hell at Germany and we weren't even there for her. So there's no reason to post blame." I could tell Reya was speechless.

The elevator door opened, I started to walk fastly but then I turned around to see Reya walking slowly. I walked closer to her and grabbed her wrist. "What's up with you." I said coldly not even trying to look at her.

"Nothing." She replied in a whisper.
I was looking around the hospital while walking then saw the receptionist, glaring at Reya and glancing at me.

I flipped her off making Reya smile and laugh. We went for the door outside the hospital, oh fuck it's raining. "Here." I removed my jacket then turned to Reya. "Keep the hood on." She nodded, taking a deep breath and made a quick smile before turning to the door and heading outside.

Reya ran to the car and quickly got inside the front seat. I sat in the driver's seat, soaking wet and turned on the engine. "So. Talk about it?"
I chuckled, shaking my head no.
She pursed her lips and nodded.

Authors note:
