Heading into my house I heard children's laughter, looking into the living room I saw my sisters with Kelly and Jacob playing, a bit of relief washed over me; quickly entering my parents room I told them what had happened and I would be at the hospital if they had needed me. How could Tyler have been so reckless, he should have been more careful while driving. I told him multiple times to not text and drive, yet he still does it. A million and one thoughts are rushing through my head right now, is he ok? What if he isn't ok; what if he is in a coma, what if Tyler gets paralyzed. How do I even know if he was in a car accident! My heart is beating a thousand times faster than its usual pace, why does he still have this effect on me? When I am the angriest at him he still has an effect on me, I don't understand. Rushing into the ER I see a middle aged blonde haired lady, "Hi I am looking for Tyler McKenzie, what room is he in?"
"You must be Destiny." she said looking at me with a sad expression "he is in the ICU room 9." She stated
"Why is he in the ICU?"
"There was no more room in the ER Hun don't worry, yet he still is in critical condition."
Leaving her behind I walked into the same ICU I walked into a little over a month ago, all these memories of being here brought tears to my eyes. I had been used to seeing Tia here I can't bare to think of Tyler in here, it doesn't help that he is in the same room as Tia was in. Entering the room I saw Tyler with an oxygen mask on and so many IV lines coming out of his arm along with some type of machine that had chords hooked up to his chest to monitor his heart. Tyler had a bunch of small cuts along with bruises all over his body; he had a black eye, and a bandage wrapped around his wrist; the sight of seeing him like that made the tears that were threatening to fall out actually come out. How could this have happened? Getting closer to him I smelt alcohol on him, he was drunk. Great, I thought to myself why would he be drinking in the first place? He knows better; yet why did it come to him drinking. Looking back at Tyler I could see his face scrunch up in confusion mixed with anger, "why are you doing this to me? I love you" he mumbled. After he said this his face changed to a soft expression, he looked sad and in pain, whoever he was talking to sure caused him a great deal of pain. He looks so fragile as if the slightest touch would break him, Tyler looks vulnerable, never had I thought I would see him in this state. Grabbing his hand, he flinched as if my touch hurt him; his hand was cold and limp.
"You jerk! How dare you get drunk don't you know any better?" I asked to his body "why do you do this to me, by this I mean why do you have such an effect on me. Even when I am pissed at you, you still find a way for me to care. You know what sucks is that I love you so much that it hurts me whenever I am mad at you; when I don't want to think about you I end up thinking about you. It annoys me, you annoy me everything you do annoys me; yet all those things you do to annoy me are the reasons I love you Tyler. I love you so much with all of my heart, Tia told me when she was alive that I better hold onto you and keep you by my side because she said you loved me. She told me that when we watched that movie in my room, she said she could tell by the way you looked at me that she knew you loved me; she said she knew that I loved you too. It is so funny how the things that are most obvious to others are the things that are so oblivious to us. You know people have been telling me that you really do love me and I have had a hard time believing it but right now after this moment I believe that you love me and you should believe that I love you. I loved you once. I loved you twice. I love you more than beans and rice Tyler" as I finished one of the machines started to beep, looking up I saw that he was flat-lining; running to the little machine on the wall I pulled down the button that said 'code blue'. Seconds later nurses and doctors rush in and start to do all types of things to Tyler, and all I could do was watch and cry. He left me; the person I loved most left this world. Why does this keep happening, why is it that everything I love dies? Am I not allowed to love; my heart is aching, my throat is dry, the doctors made me leave the room a few minutes ago so they could do their work properly. My head is spinning, I am in complete utter shock, this has to be a dream, I need to wake up and be in his arms again. I need to feel Tyler's warmth I need to hear his laugh. Looking up with tears in my eyes I saw Dr. Torres come out of Tyler's room,
