Shawn's Pov:

Beep... Beep... Beep...Beep

"What is that?"  I think as I struggle to open my eyes. "It's so loud." 

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep

"What is going on?" I don't seem to have the strength to lift my arms. My fingers feel so heavy to move alone. Where am I?

Beep...Beep

"Could someone please turn it off?" I can barely move my mouth. My throat is so dry it feels like sandpaper when I swallow what little I have.

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep

"Whose alarm is that?" Annoyance builds in my gut at the loud sound right in my ear. It's like a fucking delayed clock. It's not mine so it might be Megan's. Megan's alar- Megan? Why am I starting to feel scared all of a sudden? 

"What happened to me?"

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep

 "What happened to Megan? Why do I feel scared all of a sudden?"

Beep.Beep.Beep.Beep

"Why happened?" My memories flooded me like a moving film going the speed at the snap of a finger. It's taking me awhile to process what's being shown to me.

"Shawn?" It sounds like a distant call echoing in my head, but I can't focus on that right now.

"Jason...Kim...Jason slapped me, headlights, and the knife...KNIFE? "

Beep.Beep.Beep.Beep

"Shawn, man?" There's another one.

"Stabbed? I got stabbed, but what does this have to do with Megan? How does she- I can't remember what happened to her. She  got away...but came back, she looks so scared, and they chase- "

"Did they get her?! Is she okay?!"

"Shawn!" 

"Megan, go get that damn nurse! I know she hear his monitor!"

"Megan?"  My mind suddenly froze in place for once since I woke up.

"She's here? So, is she okay? I need to se-But I can't move! What the hell is happening to me?!"

There's voices but I can hardly hear what they're saying.

"It's like...stopped breathin..." Is that Deon?

"He tryna force..."

Using a lot of my might to fight against my heavy eyelids, and when I finally parted them it felt like glued wooden sticks ripping apart. Deon and Marcus are the first faces I see, but I'm not completely in my right mind right now.

I sat up scared and gasping for air as I wasn't breathing. Held my breath trying to fight the monsters withing me keeping me held hostage on... this hospital bed.

"Yo, calm down." Deon lays a hand on my chest to get me to lay back down, but that's the last thing I want to do.

"Where's Megan?" Even in my own ears my words sounded very hoarse.

"She went to get the nurse." Marcus lays a hand on my shoulder to help Deon bring me down.

"I need to see her."

"Nigga, she's fine. You gonna end up opening your stitches, so lay down." Stitches? Oh, right, I was stabbed. Almost as if being reminded of this attempted murder, I grasp my side in pure agony. Clenching my teeth and eyes bugged out doesn't even begin to describe how insane I look.
