Love Story...

Together...

ASHTON

    

                The moment I saw Em's parents coming out of the room, I practically ran into the room. I know I should at least ask for their permission but at the moment I didn't care. All I cared was about my Em.

               The moment my eyes landed on her, my heart stopped. I walked towards her and sat on the chair beside the bed. Her once glowing face was now pale. A tear fell from my eyes at the sight of her. She was here because of me.

             I touched her hand and flinched at how cold it was. I held her hand in mine and brought it to my lips. I kissed her hand and said, " Please Em. Wake up. I can't live without you. I will do anything you want me to do. I am so fucking sorry Em. This all happened because of me. But I promise you, if you agree to spend your whole life with me, I will spend every minute of it making it up to you but please just wake up. "

   
           After ten minutes I came out so Jenny and Jake can also see her. As soon as they came out, I again went back and sat beside her on the chair.

            I don't know how much time I sat there while talking to her and begging her to wake up. The door opened and I turned my head to see Em's mom. She gave me a small smile and said, " Ashton dear, its late. You should go to your house. I am staying with Emma tonight. " I shook my head and replied, " Sorry Lisa but I won't leave Em, I just can't leave her when she's unconscious like this. What if she wakes up and I am not there with her? I want me to be the first person she sees when she wakes up. "

           Hearing my reply her eyes softened and with teary eyes said, " My Emma is so lucky to have you. " I once again shook my head and said, " If anyone here is lucky, then it sure as hell is me." She smiled at my words and agreed to let me stay with Em. After kissing her forehead she went.

           I took Em's hands in mine and kissed them. " Wake up Em. You are killing me." There was no response. I sighed disappointed. I don't know how many hours passed but I guess I eventually slept. The exhaustion of the whole day was taking a toll on my body.

        I suddenly woke up after having a horrible nightmare. I instantly looked at Em to see her still sleeping. I sighed in relief and relaxed back on the chair.

            I looked at the clock on the wall to see it's four in the morning. I kissed Em on the forehead and said," wake up baby. I miss you. Plzz wake up. "
I got up and went out to freshen up.

                After ten minutes I was back in the room and was once again talking to Emma when I saw her hand move. My eyes widened and I stood up. I saw her trying to open her eyes.
" You can do it Em. Slowly open your eyes. Don't strain yourself. " hearing my words she immediately relaxed and slowly opened her eyes.

             Seeing her warm brown eyes again, my heart leaped in joy. I hugged her tight to my body. I heard a groan and instantly loosened my hold, " Oh God! I am such an idiot. I am so sorry. Are you hurt? How stupid of me! Of course you are hurt. What can I do for you? Do you want-" I was cut off by her chuckle. " Water " she murmured.

              I took the glass of water from the side table and brought it to her lips. She began drinking slowly. Immediately I saw some color returning to her cheeks.

               I removed the glass from her lips and kept it back on the table. I scanned her features for any sign of discomfort but there was none.

              I suddenly remembered why she was here in the first place and anger rushed within me. " Are you mad Em? Why the fucking hell did you do it? You got hurt because of me. I would have died if something happened to you. Seeing you yesterday in my arms unconscious and looking like almost dead- No! I can't bear to see that again Em. I am so so angry at you right now." I whisper yelled at her as to not wake up other patients.

            She was looking at me lovingly. After few seconds she said ," I love you Ash and that's why I did it. I know if you would have been in my place, you would have done the same. " that was all it took me to take her in my arms and kiss her senseless. " Next time if you scare me like that again, I am not gonna forgive you. "

           And then I again kissed her passionately and hungrily showing all my desperation in the kiss. Oh! How I missed the feel of her lips!

              I called the doctor after some time and he checked Em. He gave a clean bill on Emma's health and we were allowed to discharge her. After the doctor went, I called everyone.

                Em's parents came and after the necessary formalities, she was discharged. The entire time I didn't leave Em's side at all. It was like I was stuck to her. But do I care? No

           I called my mom and informed her that Em is okay. She was worrying herself. She wanted to come and meet Em but Ella was alone so she couldn't come.  But she said that she would be coming with dad at Em's today to see her.

              I was so happy now that Em was fine. Nothing bad will happen now. And even if it happens, our love is so strong that we will surpass any obstacles that comes our way.

            Happy days with my Em, here I come...
