                                                        ~Lexi's P.O.V.~

I woke up in a white room. My eyes were just moving around trying to identify both faces. I saw one face that looked alot like...Liam.

"Where am I?" I asked the people standing around me.

"You are...in the hospital," Liam told me.

"Okay, I'm wondering what happened to Jessie, because I am totally freaking out right now."

"Jessie...is in a coma. We don't know when she will wake up. She inhaled alot of smoke after you passed out, you dropped your hand from her mouth and she started taking the smoke in."

I started to get up but the people were pulling me down. I struggled and struggled to get free from their grasp but it was no use.

"No! Let me go I have to go see her!" I yelled swinging my arms back and forth whacking people around.

"Calm down, Lexi!" Liam shouted.

I finally stopped acting like a psycho and relaxed.

"Will she be okay? I need my best friend here with me to help me with boy prob-I mean my boycott," "I just  want to go back to where I was staying."

The doctor finally came inside and his eys were roaming around.

"You are free to go."

I did a mental cheer and a real cheer. I got up from my bed and started jumping around. Too bad it hurt from all of those burns. Oh, wait. My best friend is in a coma. How is that good? I can't believe it. I stopped cheering and I took a reality check. 

"Please, I'm calm now, I just, want to see her," I told the doctor giving him a hard look.

The doctor turned to look at Liam. He leaned over and whispered something in Liam's ear. I flickered my eyes from the doctor to Liam. 

"Sure, you can go and see her, but you have to keep yourself calm and you have to change into regular clothes," said the doctor.

Okay. Control myself. Don't get so emotional. Control yourself. I waved Liam and the doctor out of the room and as soon as they were gone, I walked over to my bag of clothes Liam managed to save for me. I picked out a floral tank top, black skinny jeans, and a pair of brown gladiator sandals. I took off the hospital gown and threw on my unmentionables and I pulled the tank top over my head. Then I pulled on the skinny jeans and then the gladiator sandals. I zipped up my bag and I slung it over my shoulder. Then I walked out of the room cutting off the lights. Outside of the room Liam was standing outside of the door. 

"She is in room 327, down the end of the hall."

I start walking down the hall, passing by all the doctors and nurses that were rushing patients in and out of the rooms. I saw a mother and a father carrying their newborn baby out of their room. One day that may be me with Liam. Just one day. I will have a baby, I will be married to Liam. 

I opened the door to room 327 and I closed it behind myself as I walked inside the white room. I looked over to the bed an there lie my best friend Jessie. She looked so dead. So lifeless. I felt tears run down my cheeks. I started to sob and bawl. I instantly fell to the tiled floor on my knees. This is all my fault just because I wanted to get Liam back. This is all my fault. I left the stove on. I let it burn the house down. I let that happen how could I let that happen. I stood up to my feet and I walked to the side of the bed. 

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I'm so sorry," I say to her. 

I have to do something. I can't just live my life while my best friend is in a coma when I am the one who caused it. Of course I can't. I need to be here with her. Because it's all my fault. All my fault.  

"Please come back," I whisper. 

She didn't say anything. She just lay there like she was dead. Oh. My. God. What if she never wakes up. What if she never comes back to me. Then I would be the one who caused her death. All of a sudden Liam walks into the room closing the door behind him.

"Are you okay?" he asks pulling me into a warm hug. 

Suddenly I never want this moment to end. I just want my best friend not to be half-way dead. I just want her to be here to laugh with me, to run with me, to help me with my ex-boyfriend. 

"I'm not okay," I paused,"I love her, she's my sister, she's my other half." 

"I know you miss her but she will be back I promise. Just stop blaming yourself. She will come back, so let's just enjoy what is good right now. Let's enjoy you being alive, and Jessie being in a coma and not dead and deceased." 

I wiped the tears from my cheeks and smiled at him. 

"You always knew what to say to make me feel better. And you still do," I say gripping his torso tighter.

I am finally feeling better. But I still believe this is my fault.
