Dance with me tonight- Nochelle

Chapter 43

Richelle's pov
I recieve a text from an unknown number thats says 'I'm going to be a little late.' I have no clue who it is so I phone them.
"Hello?" I ask.
"Hello are you Noah's girlfriend?" The other end asks.
"Yes." I say.
"Can you go to Toronto hospital now?" The person asks.
"Who are you?" I ask.
"My name is Grace. I'll meet you at the hospital in half an hour. I'll send you a picture of me so you know what I look like." She says and hangs up.
I get the picture and she is a pretty girl with medium length brown hair.
"Mum we need to go to the hospital now." I say.
"Why?" Mum asks.
"I think Noah is back there." I say.
"Let's go." She says.
We get into the car and mum drives to the hospital.
When we arrive, I look around and see Grace. I run up to her and my mum follows behind me.
"I'm Richelle, Noah's girlfriend. Why are we here?" I ask.
"Noah and his dad got into a car accident." She says.
Wait what? Noah and his dad got into a car accident. It took my mind a few minutes to process what she just said.
"Where are they? Who sent the text?" I ask.
"Noah sent you the text and he is in the ward upstairs but his dad still hasn't woken up so he is in a different ward." She says.
"How do you know about this?" My mum asks.
"I was walking my dog and Noah called me from across the road and I saw what had happened. I called an ambulance and managed to keep Noah awake by talking to him. That's how I know his name." She say.
"How badly injured is he?" I ask.
"He has a broken leg- which he had before and lots of cuts and bruises but nothing serious." She says.
"Can we see him?" I ask.
"Yes follow me." Grace says and takes us to his ward.
Aw e enter, I see lots of other injured people and it's I can see blood. Blood kind of makes me want to throw up but I take a deep breath and hold it in.
Then my eyes focus on Noah and his focus on me.
I run over to him and hug him.
"Noah! Oh my God. What happened?" I ask and sit on the edge of his bed.
He moves up a bit and points to the space on his bed for me to sit on.
"Thanks." I say and lie next to him.
"So what happened?" I ask.
He looks at the floor and sighs.
"It was all my fault. Dad was driving along the road and he started talking about his job. He told me that I should be happy but I said no because of my leg. He got a bit angry that I wasn't happy about him getting a new job. He said that his job was more important then my leg. He didn't mean it and it just slipped out but I said something awful. I said that mum was a better parent then he ever was. Then he was upset and the car crashed and he hasn't woken up." Noah says and starts crying.
I feel a tear drop down my cheek. I hug him and he cries on me.
Then my mum comes over.
"It was all my fault." He says and keeps crying.
"He'll be ok." My mum says.
"I've killed my dad." He says.
"Don't say that." I say.
"The last thing that I said to him was that he was a bad parent. Not I love you." He says and keeps crying on me.
Everyone is starring at us so my mum closes the curtains.
"I'll leave." Grace says.
"Wait." Noah says.
"I didn't get to thank you for being so kind." He says.
"That's ok Noah, it's what any decent person would have done." She says.
"Thank you." He says.
She smiles and walks away.
I keep hugging him and then a nurse walks in and my mum goes to talk to her. They walk out and talk.
I just calm Noah down when my mum comes back in.
"Noah I'm sorry but your....." She trails off.
"My what?" He asks, on the verge of tears.
"Your dad didn't make it." She says.
Noah's pov
I just sit there not knowing what to do.
I killed my own father. I have no family left.
"I'm an orphan?" I ask.
"I'm so sorry Noah." Richelle says.
If I hadn't have been so moody, I could've prevented his death.
I look out the window and see birds flying around.
"Life is so precious." I say and Richelle and her mum start crying.
I continue to look out the window.
"I took away my dad's life." I say.
"Don't say that please." Richelle says.
"It's true. I should be in jail." I say.
"Noah it was an accident." Richelle's mum says.
"I didn't mean to kill him." I say.
"NOAH YOU DIDN'T KILL HIM." Richelle yells and continues to cry.
"What am I going to do?" I ask and look at Richelle's mum.
"I'm only 14." I say.
"Me and Richelle's father could adopt you." Her mum says.
"Ok." I say.
"Life is precious." I say.
I know he isn't fourteen in real life but I don't care lol.
