NPOV:

The doctors tell me I can't stay at the hospital at night any more. They tell me I have to go home, and I can come back in the morning. Unfortunately, Will's parents are staying at Will's house, and had the only place where I can go.

They both glare at me, but don't protest.
"You're sleeping downstairs." His mom decides. "We're having the bedroom." She marries her eyes at me. "You haven't done anything in the bedroom, have you?" My eyes widen.
"No!"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure!" I shout.

"Good, because there is no way I'm letting you ruin William's innocence-"
"He's not a five year old." I remind her. She scowls.
"Yes, but you're obviously a trouble maker." She says snottily.

I sleep on the sofa, but it's impossible to get comfy, so I stay up all night, aiming staring at the ceiling. I pray to every god I've ever heard of that Will gets better even though I'm not religious. I try to think of ways to get him to wake up, but all of my ideas are either stupid, dangerous or both.

I need him to wake up. If I could have one wish, it would be that he wakes up, and the rest of our life is drama-free
Maybe we could get married. We could buy a new house together, far away from here, where bad memories are everywhere.

We could be happy. It's a small possibility, but still, it's a possibility. I would give anything for Will and I to be happy together.
