Nineteen - Awakening

I'm sorry if this chapter sucks, I'll try that the next one be better okay? Enjoy <3

-Sorry for any grammar errors-

What the fuck is she doing here? Seriously, this is not the right time. I never expected to see her anywhere and now she’s here at the hospital in Drew’s room. Wait, she knows him? Oh my god no, she can’t. What if Drew’s here because of her? This can’t be serious; you’ve got to be kidding me.

She walks past us without even looking at me or Keaton. It’s like we don’t exist. She goes straight to Drew. Her perfume fills my nostrils and you’ll probably think that I’m crazy but I recognize it from that night, that smell of fragrance was on Chad’s shirt. After what she did to me with Chad I need to watch my back, I don’t want her to steal Wes from me…but I know he would never do that to me. I roll my eyes at her even though she’s not looking. Keaton’s voice interrupts my inner conversation “Who is she?”

“She’s the girl who stole my ex boyfriend” I say to him without turning my gaze off of that chick. “Oh” that’s the only thing Keaton can manage to say. After a long pause, Wes notices the despised look on my face and comes over to me “Are you okay? Who is this girl?” he says while he wraps his arms around my waist “Remember when I told you Chad cheated on me with a girl? Yeah, that’s her”. He turns his head to where she is and then looks back at me “What the hell is she doing here? She knows Drew?” he seems confused “I guess she does…otherwise, why would she be here?” He gives me a kiss trying to make me forget about her “Just ignore her; I’ll talk to her to see if I can get any information. Go see Carol now babe” I smile but I don’t know if I should leave her here with Wesley…Oh what am I thinking, I trust him. I kiss him and then take Keaton by the arm towards the hallway.

My heart is pumping really fast. I’m happy but nervous at the same time. I’m dying to see Carol and so is Keaton. He’s holding my hand so tight that almost cuts my blood circulation “Geez Keaton, relax” I say to him while we’re walking to Carol’s room. He notices what he’s doing to my hand and blushes “Oh sorry”.  He’s so cute damn it, I wish I could adopt him to be my brother, that would be so awesome.

We’re almost there when Keaton stops “What’s wrong?” I ask him. He looks so nervous. “Mads… I-I know something about the Drew thing” he stares down to the floor. He knows what? Why didn’t he tell us before? “Are you fucking kidding me Keaton? What do you know and why are you telling me this now? You should say whatever you gotta say when we were with your brother!” I’m talking a little too loud because the nurses are looking at us with a suspicious look. Calm down Madison, he has a good reason… I hope.

“I couldn’t…” he brushes his hair with his hands “It’s about you” Oh no. “It’s about me??” I’m clearly surprised, I mean, that idea already came to my mind but I thought I was just overreacting “Yeah, I know what he feels  for you and the reason for him to be here in Huntington is you” Oh my god, my heart just stopped. I close my eyes because this is just too much. He had the accident because of me, he’s in that hospital bed because of me, he has fucking amnesia because of me! Keaton wraps me in a hug because he sees that I’m not okay “Do you wanna know about the whole thing?” he asks while I bury my face on the crook of his neck. I don’t know if I wanna hear it. All the happiness I had thanks to Carol is now fading away. I will never forgive myself for this. “Do you?” he insists since I’m not giving him an answer. Do I? Okay, the sooner the better. I nod and he starts, now with his hands placed on my shoulders and his green eyes looking straight to mine “So he told me everything about what he feels for you, he needed to tell someone, he couldn’t keep that to himself so obviously he wouldn’t tell Wes because you and him are together which means I was the only one who left to speak his mind off. He told me all these amazing things about you and I was impressed, I didn’t know he liked you that much… that’s when he told me he wanted to do you a surprise” Shit, I was right. I start to feel salty tears coming down my eyes when Keaton wipes them away “Don’t cry please, don’t think that any of this is your fault because it isn’t. I told him to come; it’s my fault” Those last words made me widen my eyes “Why did you tell him to come? What kind of surprise was he talking about?” He takes his hands off of my shoulders, placing them on his sweatshirt pockets “I don’t know why I told him that, I wasn’t thinking… the surprise consisted on playing you a song at your window” I bring my hands to my head and start walking on circles in the middle of the hallway. I can’t stand this, Drew’s here because of me and no matter what Keaton says, I will never forgive myself for that. What are we gonna say to Wes? He needs to know the truth and let me tell you that he’s gonna be devastated.
