Lucas's POV-
It's been almost 2 weeks. It's almost Christmas. Taylor is still in a coma. All her bruises and scratches are gone. Her bones are back to where they originally were. Not broken. Sprained, but not broken.

I signed in and waved hi to Anna. She was the lady who worked at the front desk. "It's nice to see ya Lucas. There is still no sign of her waking up. I'm so sorry," she says, sympathy lacing her every word. I smile sadly at her.

I just wish Taylor can wake up before Christmas. It's the 16th. a week till Christmas. The elevator door opened to the third floor. I turned the door knob and walked in. I quietly closed her door. I threw my school bag on the couch and plopped down on the chair next to her.

I held her hand and stroked her hair. It was a habit now. "Taylor. A lot has happened. Sapphire stopped eating and were trying to get her to eat. She eats very little. Possibly only a blueberry, raspberry or  strawberry. She's getting weaker and weaker. She hasn't had a wink of sleep since you fell in a coma. I'm not doing so good either. I shower every once in a while, I eat, not a lot though, I can't sleep either. None of us can. If we do, it will feel as if your dying. Were getting weaker and weaker. Everyone's worried about us and you. Please wake up," I whisper a tear drop falling on her hand.

Then I felt a squeeze. I looked up to see Taylor's eyes fluttering open, then close again. "Squeeze my hand again," I beg her. I felt a squeeze. I smiled with joy. I let go of her hand. I called in a doctor.

I quickly texted the group. 'She's awake! She's finally awake!' I texted them. 'We'll be there in 5' texted Sapphire. A doctor came in and told me to get out politely.

As said, the gang came in 5 minutes. "She awake?!" Sapphire says, excitedly and tiredly at the same time. "Sapphire, you need to sleep. You look like a wreck," I say, examining her. She had really dark eyebags, she was growing a pimple and she wasn't that stylish anymore.

Chase sat down and patted his lap. Sapphire groaned but sat. She leaned her head on his shoulder and instantly fell asleep. He wrapped his arms around her waist. "I swear, if you hurt Sapphire, I will rip your balls off," I threaten. He gave me a nod with wide eyes.

"She's finally awake," Samantha whispers. Francesca nodded. "Just in time for Christmas shopping week," Francesca says, sighing happily. These girls are like Taylor's sisters. They keep sleeping at Sapphire's house. For 3 weeks! Annaliah's baby bump is showing a little, and she's happily engaged.

The doctor came out and smiled. "She's feeling better, but were gonna keep her for a day or two, to run some tests to make sure she is gonna be okay. You can go in and see her, I will be right back. I have to attend to another patient," he says, smiling.

"Thank you doc," I say, shaking his hand. We all walk in. Taylor was looking at the pile of stuffed animals on the right corner.

"Hey Taylor. How you feeling?" Sapphire asks softly, gently touching her arm.

"Who are you people?" she asks, clearly confused. We all gasped. Our eyes were wide open and mouth wide open too. We all started saying things at once.

"I'm your sister! I'm your best friend! I'm your fairy unicorn who has landed on you and pooped when you sleep! You were stuck in a coma! Pineapple! Coco and nuts make coconuts, but why do we have the fuzzy stuff!" those were some of the words that were thrown at her.

Then Taylor started laughing. She laughed and laughed. We all stared at her. "Your faces!" She laughs. "Y-your faces! Y-you guys are stupid!" She laughs. We all groaned and sighed happily. Sapphire flicked her forehead. Taylor stopped laughing and whined in pain.
