Chapter 80

Ella

- - - - - - - - - -

"... and she's looking better, I don't know if she knows subconsciously, but..... " I'm not sure who was talking to me, but my mind was in a haze, I knew this feeling. What was that feeling? Who was talking?..... Who am I?

- - - - - - - -

"Its not fair, not after all you fought through... after.... and when you were....." Part of me thought she was my mom talking, a blood plump woman came to my mind, but just as I got a name, I was pulled into sleep.

****

"Please, just come on baby. Please, don't let me loose it all now. They are holding all your....." I couldn't open my eyes to see him, but something told me blue eyes were pleading at me... but.... who was it?

****

"I'm so sorry, so sorry. I heard what you did, she told everyone. Thank you so much, what he did... Oh god, Ella, it was terrible, and he kept calling me Ruby, I don't know why..." A broken voice whispered to me, Ella, I was Ella! I finally recognized the name. Beth... Beth, she was talking to me. For the first time, my memories were with me, I tried to move or open my eyes but nothing happened. I was so frustrated, I felt as if I didn't even have toes, my fingers wouldn't do anything, so I listened helplessly as Beth explained the horrors of what Mikey had done to her, starting from start to finish in painful detail, how he took her virginity and how she cried for help the whole time... and he laughed....

"I know you might not hear me, I kind of hope you don't... But I... I needed to tell someone. and your the strongest person I trust." The door closed, with my peace and hope of movement lost with the sound of it.

* * * *

"He knows now..... Cant believe I was so scared. He said he accepts it, can you believe it? All that straight sex for nothing." The forced laugh grated on my ears, and made the darkness pull me back. I tried to scream. "Bud!! Get me off this! Help me!" But nothing worked, I never moved and inch, I started to feel like I never would.

* * * *

"This is the first time they have let me in, I tried before. I know it was wrong, if only you would wake up, I wont say this until I can look into your eyes and explain... " Her voice faded out and I almost growled in frustration. How long had I been fighting to move? How long did I have to? Was it a pointless struggle? Different people came and went, not able to keep up with who was saying what, I fell back in the darkness I had been fighting against, to hear whoever was giving this heart felt apology.

******

"Its not fair, I keep thinking if I had given in sooner, if I had never let you walk away that day after school. If I had grabbed you in my arms and begged you to be with me, even though my Dad gave me the deal... Maybe you wouldn't be here, maybe.... Maybe, its my fault for not saying anything..." I heard muffled noises, I knew who it was... I love him... I just... don't know what his name is. But I could feel the pain inside me, to hear those words, so lost and self- loathing... If only I could reach out, and say it was okay... but just the thought pushed me back into the darkness, but this time... the darkness wasn't peaceful or annoying... it was terrifying and then... then it wasn't anything.

*Nana's POV*

"Get her out of here!" He yelled I wanted to punch his face in!!

"Whats going on!!! Whats happening to her?" I was never given an answer, and that had been an hour ago, an hour since her green slow but steady heartbeat showed on the screen had gone red and straight. The kids had gone to school, forced by me, If I got my baby back she would be pissed to see they skipped..... IF? IF? No, When I got my baby back, right?

As if on time to answer that question, the same nurse from that first night came out to me and pulled me into a hug.

"She's alive." Her words of encouragements fell to deaf ears.

"But?"

"Stacy, she fell into a comma. Her heart was to weak to substane the shock, and her stitched ripped open in the defibrillation, but it went back safely. Its not a deep comma, but..." she took a deep breath, I almost wanted to scream at the dramatics of it all. "But she's no longer showing any brain responses to outside situations, she died for two minutes and 39 seconds, and if she comes back, she may have memory loss or end up handicapped, all we can do is hope for the best, but I'm legally obligated to not give false hope, and to remind you that the chances of her coming back the same are slim to none."

**** Ella

"Hi?" I'm not sure where I am, if it was a memory or a dream, or a reality. The girl next to me rolled her eyes.

"Of course ya don't remember me, its been awhile and your all but dead." I gave her a confused look, dead? I don't feel dead. I looked around, it was a bright place, I was setting on a piano bench next to the girl.

"Who are you?" She chuckled.

"Roses are....?"

"Red?"

"Close." She didn't give me an answer after that just stared at me.

"Am I dead?"

"Practically, don't worry, its not as bad as you would think, being dead I mean." She looked around "Not even lonely, kind of boring, then again its not like you can get a good buzz when your dead." I raised an eye to her, she was funny. Who in the hell would do drugs?

"Do I know you?" Her smile turned wistful

"Not in this lifetime, but who you used to be, you did then. You changed Blue." She turned away. "but then again I watched all of you change." I still was confused, what was she talking about?

"All of us?"

"Yea, but your the only one who changed for the better, but no matter who you find in life, we all die alone." she looked at me. "Except you... everyone will feel dead without you." Her eyes turned haunted, before looking down at her stomach. "Then again, I was already dead wasn't I?" I looked down and saw a tree branch from her stomach, I stared in horror, but when I looked up to her she was gone and the darkness was black...

"We all die alone..." repeated over and over.

Dun Dun Dun, if this was a TV series, this would be where the mid-season break would be I bet, but, its not. Thankfully right? Where do ya think Ella was, a dream? A reality? I'm not a woman of religion, neither is Fella, but could it be she just took a dive in the afterlife, or just a figment of a comma?
