Bullied By Dan Howell

Part 9

*Saturday*

I woke up to my phone ringing. It was Marcus. "Morning love" I said sitting up. "Hey babe. I'm getting the surgery today, if you want to come" he said. Immediately I jumped up and started getting ready as I told him I'd be there. I put on black sweatpants, one of Marcus' hoodies and vans. I brushed my hair and teeth and ran to Marcus'.

I knocked on his door. "Hey baby girl" he said answering the door. "Hey" I said hugging him. "You look so cute" he said smiling. "Thanks. You do too" I said looking up at him. "No problem. Thanks but I'm about to get surgery so I didn't think I look that good but whatever you think" he said poking my cheek. I looked down, getting nervous about his surgery. "Hey, I'll be fine" he said lifting my chin. "I know but I'm still worried because I love you" "I love you to." Then his parents came out and we all went to the hospital.

I was sitting on the chair next to Marcus. I laid my head on his shoulder. I was really nervous. I could barely move or breathe. "Babe I'll be fine" he said looking down at me. "I know." "I got something for you" he said taking a ring,bracelet, and necklace out of his pocket. They were all engraved with 'love you so much. Stay strong. For me'. "Marcus, these are beautiful. Thank you so much" I said hugging him. "No problem" he said hugging me back. Then we heard the doctor. "Marcus, please come get prepared" he called. I looked up at him. "I love you baby girl. I'll see you in about an hour or two" "I love you to" I said tears escaping my eyes. I watched as he walked to the doors. He turned around and mouthed''I love you' I mouthed it back.

I pulled my knees to my chest and waited for him to be done. "Emma, sweetie Marcus will be okay" his mum says reassuringly as his dad nods behind her. I nod wiping my eyes. About 2 hours pass and I've slept off and on. I was so worried it was only supposed to be an hour. I ignored it and tried to sleep again. A few minutes later I felt a hand touch my knee. "Miss?" "Yeah" I answered opening my eyes. "I'm sorry. Marcus' surgery didn't go as planned" he sighed. My heart fell. "Is he d-dead" I stammered. "No, he somehow fell in a coma during the operation" he replied. "Can I see him?" I asked standing up. "Yes ma'm" he replied and motioned me to follow him.

I walked into the cold, dim room that Marcus was staying in. His parents were at a small cafe across the street. I walked over to his bed. His chest was slowly rising and lowering with each breath. I waited for the doctor to leave. Then he did. I broke down, tears streaming down my face. "Marcus, baby please wake up. I need you. I love you so much. Please wake up, I can't do it without you. I have to keep my promise, but it's hard without you. Please" I sobbed. "I just want to hug you again. Please wake up, for me" I whispered.I couldn't live without him. I need him more than anyone. He's the only one that can truly understand me. I've never loved someone as much as I love him. His parents were by the doctor and they would be over soon. I tried to get everything out as soon as possible, before his parents arrive. I told him how much I love him and how much he means to me. I just hoped he was listening. Then his parents walked in. They were slightly crying, not nearly as much as I was. I let them have some time alone with him so I went home. The only thing I was happy about was that he is cancer free.

(MARCUS' POV *When Emma was talking*)

"Marcus, baby please wake up. I need you. I love you so much. Please wake up I can't do it without you. I have to keep my promise, but it's hard without you. Please" she sobbed. I tried talking back. I tried to wake up but I couldn't. I tried yelling back, but she couldn't hear me. I need to keep trying. For her.

(EMMA'S POV)

I got home and ran to my room and slammed the door behind me. He needed to live. We had our future planned. We wanted to be together forever.I looked at the ring, bracelet and necklace and thought of him. That made me sob even harder. Then Phil texted me.

To Emma Bear: Hey love

To Philly: hey

To Emma Bear: No caps. What's wrong?

To Philly: Marcus is in a coma ;-;

To Emma Bear: I'll be there in a sec if you want

To Philly: You don't have to

To Emma Bear: But I want to

To Philly: Okay bring ice cream

To Emma Bear: I knew you would want it. I'm on my way

I waited for Phil to come for about 5 minutes.
