Lost In His Eyes - Jakob Delgado

Chapter 21 - Will this be goodbye?

CARAS POV:

My world just seemed to cave in around me, my mouth instantly going dry and my legs became stiff and impossible to move.

"What when?", Ethan said as he sat himself up quickly.

"Late last night, I thought Cara would of known", I could hear his mum say as I continued to stare at the floor in complete and utter shock. I could feel myself zoning out as my brain felt as if it had stopped, no thoughts and no words coming to me.

"Cara? Are you ok?", I heard Ethan say as he shook me.

At that point I snapped out of my gaze as I slowly turned my head over to where Ethan was sitting grabbing his hand as I did so.

"Umm uhh can we go see her?", I managed to speak out as I tried to swallow the lump that was forming in my throat.

"Of course.", his voice was so sweet and calming as he pulled me up and brought me into a tight hug. "Im sure she will be fine and this is all just nothing."

I guess Ethan had a point maybe I was overreacting and this is all nothing but a scare. I shake off all the negative thoughts before talking back at Ethan, "True".

"Here mum will take us."

Ethans mum then walked out to the car as Ethan and I followed close behind her, the blanket still wrapped around me. He then opened the car door and motioned for me to step in. My feet shook a little as I made my way into the backseat, Ethan's familiar scent filling the small space instantly making me feel a little better.

On the way to the hospital I could feel Ethan's eyes on me just like they were during the movie although this time I knew it was out of concern.

My eyes then slammed shut as I prayed for the best whilst leaning my head on the cold foggy window giving me an idea that it must of been raining whilst Ethan and I were inside. Before I knew it my eyes are awoken from the sudden break of the car. I then look around to take in my surroundings and notice we are now at the hospital. I wasted no time getting out, leaving the blanket on my seat whilst doing so. Ethan's hand then reached out for mine and I gladly accepted as we made our way to the front desk, passing through the old cafe and gift shop before finding where we were supposed to be.

"Hi I'm looking for my mothers room?", I said shakily to the lady at the front desk.

"What was her name?", she replied fairly glum.

"Jones", "Lisa Jones."

There was then a short silence as her fingers hit the keyboard harshly, this sound being the only noise in the room. She then sighed and lifted her head to face me in an unpleasant manor.

"Hm it looks as if you cannot see the patient as of yet, maybe you can wait with the rest of your family and friends?", she then gestured behind me as I swung my head back, the lady rolling her eyes as she did so.

My eyes then flickered open and closed a few times before I realised who was sitting directly behind me with his hand resting on his chin.

It was Jakob. His hair all messy and his olive skin so perfect and smooth. His eyes instantly met my own, causing my heart to beat faster. I could feel Ethan's hand squeeze mine, reminding me we were still holding hands. I quickly let go and found Jakob to be looking where our hands once were joined before looking back up at me, his nose flaring out a little showing me he was angry.

I felt a rush of guilt roll over me as I stepped forward to explain myself to him.

But Before I could, I felt two arms wrap around me causing me to fall back slightly. I knew straight away it was Mikalia from the leather jacket which was bunching up in front of my face although my eyes were still able to stay fixed on Jakobs as my head hung over her shoulder. "Im so glad your here! Jakob's been trying to reach you all night", she says as she pulls away.
