Scary Things Happen Sometimes (Michael BSM) [Part 2]

Elsie's POV
...What?
I slowly opened my eyes, but closed them again as a blinding light entered my field of vision. I had a splitting headache as well. I opened them again, waiting for them to adjust. I looked around at my surroundings and noticed I was in a bed in a completely white room.

Is this a hospital?

I saw the boys scattered around the room, sleeping in chairs. Ashton was on one side of me and Michael on the other.

Why am I here? I was supposed to be dead!

I started sobbing and tears rolled down my cheeks. Ashton moved a little in his sleep and eventually woke up.

"Elsie?"

He looked a little confused at first, but then his eyes widened and he hugged me.

"Elsie, I'm so happy you're okay! I was scared you wouldn't make it... Do you wanna talk about what happened?"

I shook my head no and buried my head in his chest as I continued to sob. He rubbed my back and told me it was going to be okay.

The others eventually woke up and each gave me a hug. It looked like they had been crying as well. I instantly felt terrible for what I had tried to do. These people love me. I shouldn't have been as selfish as to try and take my own life when they love me so much. I'm so grateful to have a brother and friends like them. I need to keep on living for them.

A week later
I was recently released from the hospital, and I've started going to therapy. My therapist is really nice and has helped me so far. The boys are a constant help as well. My parents were informed of what happened and decided to try and change their ways. We spend more time together and they are actually nicer to me. All I needed was to reach out for help. Now I think I can be happy and my life will hopefully only get better from here.
