~Awake~

the sound of a phone ringing echoed through my brain, making my brain feel like it was being stabbed by a thousand daggers. Rolling over, wishing the dreadful noise to disappear as I pull the pillow over my head with a groan. Just then the dreadful noise was gone, relieved I sigh and snuggle back in, I could do with another couple of hours sleep.

“Dude, dude get the fuck up that was the hospital on the phone.” as soon as the words were mentioned, I shot up.

“What is it what's wrong?” I asked my brother Vic

“They want you down there ASAP, they are talking about switching the machine off as it's been almost a year.” he told me. My blood started to boil as rage bubbled deep in the pit of my stomach, I paid them good money to look after her. I didn't pay them to make such a decision. "Dude calm down, look go clean up, you need to look and smell presentable;Then we will go down there and sort this whole mess out okay.”

“Vic they can't pull the pug dude I swear if ...”

“They won't we won't let them.” he reassured me with a pat on the shoulder I nod and make my way to the bathroom.

“Who do I talk to about this decision to pull the plug on my fiancée?” I asked making damn sure they knew I was pissed.

“Mike, please calm down, no one is pulling the plug on Amelia, we simply wanted to talk about that option.” Megan, one of Amelia's personal carers said hurrying over when she saw me at the desk.

“Meg that isn't a fucking option I told you, I told you all time and time again that isn't an option.”

“Listen I know you love her and I know it's difficult, but could you imagine being in her place, not quite alive but not dead and then if you believe in life the after life and such won;t her poor soul be trapped in a shell screaming to be set free?”

“Don;t feed that bullshit to me, I'm not saying I will keep her on there forever, but all I am saying is it's only been a year, people come back after six or seven years, more even so I am just not ready to give up on her okay.”

“Okay fine Mike we get it.”

“Good, now can I go see her?” I asked

“Of course.” she smiled allowing Vic and I room to pass.

Opening the door to Amelia's room was a painful experience, each time I opened it I prayed I would find her awake, but each time I was faced with disappointment as the love of my life lay there lifeless as the machine worked it's hardest to keep her alive for me until she was ready to come home to me.

“Amelia” I said gently taking her small feminine hand into mine, It was then I saw a nurse had painted her nails. As most people do with coma patients we surrounded her with familiar things, and everyday I one of guys or a nurse would play music for her or read one of her favourite books, paint her nails spray her favourite perfume, just things she would recognize. So I guess one of the nurses pained her nails, no doubt it was Meg, she really did care for Amelia, I couldn't ask for a better nurse for her.

“Oh hello Mike, Vic, sorry to interrupt I just came to give Amelia her daily bath and to shave her legs.” nurse Sandy said entering the room

“It's okay you're not interrupting.... but can I do it?”

“Of course... Vic how about I take you for a coffee huh?”

“Sure that sounds great.” Vic smiled and patted me on the back. “Be back soon bro”

“Okay” I replied before taking the cart of items from Sandy, then they left.

After I gave her a bed bath, I combed her hair as best I could.

“You are still the most beautiful woman in the world.” I told her placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. I then grabbed her razor and gently shaved her legs, well the best I could. I was about done with the last leg when I swear her leg twitched, or rather it jerked throwing the razor in the bowl I hurry to her head with hope in my heart. “Amelia...baby?” I say in a whisper but there was no response. The hope quickly plummeted back down to the bottom of my stomach with a thunderous crash. As I fight back the tears. “It's okay baby, I am with you, please come back to me soon, I miss you like crazy” as I spoke to her I was looking at her beautiful peaceful face, imagining I was able to sat those thing while looking in her amazing green eyes.

A few moments later her face started to move like when she ate that olive and she discovered she hated olives.

“Amelia?” I called out “Come back to me Lia please come back to me I miss you.” I no sooner got the words out my mouth when her eyes flew open. Looking around her surroundings in a state of panic. I pushed the emergency nurse button not wanting to leave her side. Moments later Meg came running in “She's awake she's awake.”

“Mike I know you don;t want to but you need to step outside, she will be very scared and confused right now, I promise you'll get back in ASAP.”

“But-”

“Mike please” I hated leaving her when she was finally awake but I knew I had to so I stepped outside and another nurse and Doctor Little stepped in.

Pacing the area outside her room, Vic came running up to me when he saw me there as did Sandy

“Is everything alright?” he asked

“She is awake” and with those words Sandy hurried into the room.

“Is she alright?”

“I don't know they booted me out instantly.”

“Dude I am sure she will be fine, how long have you been waiting?”

“Ten agonising minutes.”

“Come sit”

“I can't” I reply continuing my pacing.

After a further ten minutes Meg came out and told me I could come in. I stepped inside and a smile grew on my face the instant my eyes fell upon her, awake face, she didn't return my smile and she actually looked confused.

“Hey baby.” I greeted her with a small kiss on the cheek she gasped

“Who are you?”......
