Mentally Hopeful • Ethan Cutkosky

20.0

I grabbed my phone and ran downstairs. I couldn't believe my eyes.

Ethan. Is it possible?

He was out cold, blood all over him.

"What happened?!" I screamed slowly getting close to him

"We were walking and then a car came and it crashed into the sidewalk. It was about to hit me but...."

"But what???" I said

"He saved me"

"Who are you"

"Brooke"

"Brooke... He talked about you, often. You're a good friend of his. Thank you for that" i said

"What's gonna happen to him" asked Jake

"We're taking him to the hospital, i don't feel a pulse." said my dad

No. This can't be happening. My life is being taken away from me.

"We cant take him, he'll lose way more blood. Plus, your a slow driver" i said

"Mia, call 911. &  i am not slow I'm cautious!" he said

"They're gonna be here in 5 minutes" said Mia

What if he dies? I'll kill myself to be with him. What if he wakes up and hates me? Make him think good of you. There's always an answer to every question.

I heard the police sirens surrounding every corner of the room. That's all i can hear.

I saw them carry him into a stretcher. His mom bursting into tears watching him being put in the car. Everything makes sense for a second. I stay silent and watch everyone and everything.

"Someone needs to go in there with him" said his mom
"I'll go" i said
"Yeah i think that's a good idea" she said
I went up to the ambulance car and got in.
I watched him.
I held his cold bare hand.
He was so innocent.
I did this to him.
It's all my fault.

We arrived at the hospital and we were led to a room.

"Everyone get out!" Yelled the doctor

I went to the waiting room where i saw everyone already there. I went up to brooke and hugged her. I know i just met her but i really needed a hug. We sat down and waited to be called.

2 hours later we were called in.
There he was sleeping like the angel he is. He's alive and that's all that matters right now.

"It seems like Ethan took a major  hit to the head" said the doctor
"We had to stitch his head up, theres 13 stitches near his right temple, he should wake up any moment"

"Thank you doctor" said Ethan's mom

We all sat down and waited for Ethan to wake up. 15 minutes later he opened his eyes.

* Ethan's POV *

I woke up in a strange room. A hospital?

"He's awake!" Said a beautiful girl that looked my age.

"Where am i?" I said

"Ethan, your in a hospital" she said again

"Who are you?" I said

She was beautiful. I recognize her from her eyes. There was another girl standing next to her. She was also pretty but not as pretty as the girl standing right in front of me.

"Ethan, you don't remember me?" She said again

"No, i don't remember anything. Who are you?" I said

"I'm Brooke"
