Change Of Plans (Watty Awards 2013)

Chapter 30 - Be Alright...

Dez POV-

I woke up in a stiff chair, and stretched my back out hearing multiple cracks and pops. I wearily opened my eyes, and saw I was in a waiting room. Lola and Ryder were curled up on a love seat and Lola had her head buried in Ryders shoulder. 

Xavier and Izabella were sitting there, with there usually blank stares. Claire wa sitting there with Liam and had tears in here eyes. Jesse, and Damen just walked back into the room with snacks, and shot me an apologetic smile. Max was sitting there with clenched fist, and Katie was sitting there looking anxious. I noticed my dad and another couple in the corner talking, and the woman was crying.

I turned to my right, and Chaz was sitting there looking at me. 'What was going on' I thought to myself. I looked to my left, and saw a team of paramedics run by and it all came rushing back to me.

"OH MY GOD! VINCENT!!" I shot up out of my seat, and Chaz grabbed onto my arm shaking his head sadly. "What is going on?! Someone tell me!!" I screamed and everyone just looked at me.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned around to face the beautiful woman who was crying. "I'm Rosetta. This is my husband John. We're Vincents parents...you must be the famous Dez" she still had tearsstreaming down her face. "Please tell me what's going on" I begged.

John came up to me and took a shaky breath. "Vincent was out on the bike, and he was speeding. He ended up running a red light and went head on with a gasoline truck. The impact carried him a long ways down the road. He was rushed here immediately. He is in a coma right now...but they really don't know if he will make it or not." 

At those words I threw myself at Vincents mom. "I-it's all my fault. H-he wanted t-to sup-support me and I-I pus-pushed him away!!!" I sobbed into her jacket. "I-I was going to tell h-him that I-I talked to m-my dad and I wa-was going to op-open my own fas-fashion li-line.! He did-didn't hav-have to go into the a-army" 

I was pulled from Rosetta, into Lola. "Shhhhhhhh" she cooed in my ear. "It's going to be alright..." She hugged me tighter.I pulled back and looked up at John and Rosetta. "Can I go see him?" they nodded and led me down a long hallway. We stopped at a door, and they just nodded at me before walking away.

I walked in and I saw him laying there, lifeless. His beautiful tan skin, was pale. His lips were chapped, and slightly open. He had tubes going every which way.

He didn't move.

Didn't make a sarcastic remark.

Didn't call me Princess.

Nothing. He just.....was there. I looked around and saw nobody there. I slightly moved his arm, that was heavily wrapped in a cast. I maneuvered my way next to him, putting his arm around me and just laid there with him.

"You'll be okay...I know you will." I whispered, kissing his neck and falling asleep next to the love of my life.

Vincents POV-

Darkness surrounded me. I tried opening my eyes but it just wasn't working. I felt weight on me, and I tired moving but I couldn't.

"What is going on!!" I screamed into my mind. A figure appeared next to me and grabbed my hand. I looked down, and was staring at my little sister.

"Hi VIncy!! I miss you. Now you can come and play with me!!" she said jumping up and down. "Wha-what do you mean baby girl?" I asked. This has to be some kind of dream. 

"Vincy, that man up there told me to come and get you. He said that it was your time to go." she said looking up at me with her big blue eyes. My time to go? NO....
