Save Me. {A Joe Sugg FanFiction}

twenty-two

I feel Joe's head still sitting in my lap. I softly push him off as not to wake him.
I'm not sure what I did was the right thing.
Should I have forgiven him?
He could do it again...
I shake the thoughts out of my head; I love Joe and however I managed to survive that few hours without knowing he was mine I have no idea.
He murmurs in his sleep, his hair is messy and a slight pout rests on his lips.
I smile and get my phone from the plastic tray that holds my belongings.
I snap a quick photo and tweet it.
'Aww @joesugg looks so cute when he's sleeping <3'
I put my phone down just as Alexa bursts in.
'Emma! Are you alright?' She asks hurriedly. Sitting the opposite side of the bed and pushing the hair out of my eyes.
I smile and nod.
'I'm doing good bro.' I laugh and she laughs with me.
At this Joe wakes up, his hair sticking up on one side. He looks adorable.
'Joe? What are you doing?' Alexa snaps, clearly she hasn't noticed  him yet.
'I'm... I..' Joe trails off, Alexa can be bloody intimidating when she tries.
'Guys stop. Alexa it's fine. We're good.' I say, putting my hand on Joe's back; he's still kneeling by the side of my bed.
'You better watch out Sugg.' Alexa says malevolence coursing through her voice.
Joe raises his hands in defeat.
I sniffed.
'Can anyone else smell that?' I ask, sniffing again.
They both sniff the air.
'No..' Joe says, confused.
I sniff once more: I know what it is now. We need to get out. We need to leave.
Fire.
'Guys we need to leave. Now!' I say pointing at the fire exit that I can see the other side of the corridor. They can obviously smell it too because they're gathering their things and they both look back at me.
''What?' I snap.
They both look down at my hospital gown.
'Ohhh. Right.' I say. Looking around for my clothes. I can't see them and notice I can't see anything. Except my sheet.
I grab my sheet: ripping it off the bed and tying round my waist. I probably look like an idiot but I really do not care.
'Ok. Let's go.' I say determinedly.
They raise an eyebrow but continue down the hall, just as the fire alarm starts blaring.
~~~~~~~~~~

We stand in the cold as the firemen put the fire out. I look around for Joe and Alexa.
I grab Joe's arm.
'Where's Alexa?' I whisper, looking round worriedly.
Joe shakes his head.
'I don't know..' He whispers back. We both begin looking but an outburst of cries catch our attention.
What I see breaks my heart.
There. In the fireman's arms. Is Alexa.
My knees giveaway and I crumble to the ground. Joe immediately puts his arms around me and lets me cry into shirt, no doubts get to f it wet.
'Shushh. Emma. She wouldn't want you to be like this.' He says comfortingly.
'She-I never- I wish-.' I sob, my voice cracking as I speak.
He runs a hand through my hair and brings my face up to his. He kisses my forehead and pulls my into a hug again as I cry.
'I never got to say goodbye..' I whisper.
'It's ok. It's ok Emma.'
But it's everything but ok.
She was with me through everything. She helped me so so much. I wish I could've said goodbye.
I already miss her.
I scream.
'Emma. Emma, listen.' Joe says softly.
I look up at him.
'Emma, if you were in a garden, which flowers would you pick?'
'The most special one..' I say confused.
'Exactly.'
Oh.
'Ugh but she didn't even do anything wrong!' I shout, frustrated.
'Come on Emma. Let's get you home...'
I whimper and nod, letting him take me away from her.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
