Chapter 11 - It happened in seconds

Alana's P.O.V
"Are you better yet A?" Phil asked me while taking hold of my hand

"Almost, just another day or 2 and I'll be fine" I said smiling

"Good because I miss the really excited and happy Alana" He said stroking the back of my hand with his thumb, I felt the butterflies in my stomach and I could feel my face going very red, I guess he is the one after all, I got pulled out of my moment by someone shouting

"Alana, Phil we're back!"

It was Jasmine who shouted meaning the 2 are back from their date, I really want to go on a date with Phil but I think it's too soon seen as though we haven't even kissed yet! But surely you don't need to have kissed someone to go on a date with them, I will be better tomorrow so I'm going to take control and ask Phil if he'll come and see a movie with me...

"Phil, if I'm better tomorrow can me and you go see a movie?" I asked admiring his facial features

"Sure, what do you wanna watch?" He asked putting his hand on my thigh

"Spector? The new bond movie..." I said using puppy eyes because I remembered he said he didn't want to watch it

"Fine, but only because I like you" he said poking my nose which was cringey at first but the word like does he not love me? Maybe that's too soon? We don't go out yet but does he want to? These questions swarmed my head, after a while it all got too much and I started getting light headed so I shut my eyes

"I'm so sorry Phil I can't do this"

"What?" He said, tears building in his eyes "don't leave" he looked hurt, annoyed.

"Goodbye" and with that I ran outside despite Phil chasing me.

I ran down the street and ran across the road not looking where I was going, I heard a car horn beeping and the last thing I felt was a shooting pain rush through my body and then darkness. It all happened in seconds...

Beep beep beep.

I could hear the life support machine next to me, I tried opening my eyes but they felt heavy, I could hear talking next to me.

"Come on Alana, please wake up, come on, you can do it"

The voice sounded sad, it was a boy, I was thinking who it could be, I then realised it was Phil.

I then heard my best friend's voice

"Lana? Can you hear us?"

I was trying my hardest to open my eyes but I couldn't. The only thing I could do was move my fingers that we're been held by 2 people, I assumed it would be Jasmine and Phil but I wasn't sure. I managed to move my fingers and I heard gasps

"Alana can you hear us?" Phil said but I still couldn't reply

"I don't think she can Phil" Jasmine said whilst sniffling

"I bet she can watch, if you can hear us but can't speak squeeze my hand" Phil said, I tried my hardest to squeeze his hand, I managed to do it a little bit but not much.

"Can you hear us?" Jasmine said

I wanted to do this for them so they knew I was ok so I tried my hardest to say hello but this is what ended coming out

"H...y...l..u..o"

I tried and I felt myself smile and one eye half opened, everything was a blur at first but I did it. I saw everyone stood staring at me. Phil, Jasmine and Dan and the doctor I'm assuming.

But I didn't mind I didn't manage to properly speak I'm safe and that's all that matters right now. What the hell was I thinking, walking out in front of a car...
