Hello Beautiful

Logan navigated the corners of the hospital quickly, his gown swaying back and forth as he ran and his bare feet quickly sliding across the polished floor. He passed operating rooms and nurseries, rushing past unsuspecting doctors as he entered by.  Twisting and bending around the maze he finally discovered a map of the hospital mounted on a wall. Running over he studied it and was amazed at how many levels this hospital had.

"This maybe more difficult then I thought" Logan thought aloud

"Logan?" He heard a familiar voice call out and recognised it instantly

"Tina?" Logan asked puzzled "what are you doing here?"

"Isn't it kinda obvious?" Tina said coldly

Logan mentally punched himself in the face at how dumb the question was. Looking at Tina he saw her eyes were puffy and red, her cheeks stained by tears, more noticeable he saw that her fists were clenched tightly. Clearly she was pissed. Knowing that he was treading on thin ice Logan decided to take a calm approach.

"You maybe wondering why I'm hear especially in a hospital gown?" Logan asked smirking trying to lighten her obviously dampened moods

"I'm wondering why you are here at all" Tina replied coldly looking down blood boiling

Gulping loudly Logan continued with a bit less confidence "Well I heard about the incident from Joey and Scarlett and I ran here, got sun stroke and fainted as soon as I stepped through the front door"

Tina didn't respond, she didn't even flinch

"Um Joey and Scarlett also told me I may have something to do with it" Logan said taking a step forward "is that true?"

Suddenly Tina's hand swung around and slapped the crap out of Logan, stumbling he had to regain balance on one of the many doors that lined the corridors. Shocked Logan held he cheek where a red hand mark was already prominent. Tina stared at Logan calmly as the boy blinked a hundred times a minute to try and realise the situation, straightening up slowly he carefully walked over to Tina. Hand still covering his cheek he looked at her like she was a alien. Taking a while to compose himself he spoke again

"I most likely deserved that...." He said before getting another smack which was so powerful he fell down to the ground.

"OW!" Logan shouted in pain "Stop doing that!"

"Why should I!" Tina yelled back

"Because normally people don't hit people who are trying to talk to them" he responded angrily

"Normal people don't make another person's sister fall so madly in love with them that they would rather die than not be with them. Then afterwards they don't talk like a smug prick when they know full well that they are the problem" Tina spat

The words hitting him in the gut, Logan felt a great pain as he knew the words were true. Rising from his feet he held his burning cheek and looked eye to eye with Tina. Her anger had been released and now she was a mess, tears brimming in her eyes. Taking a step forward he took her into his arms and into a tight embrace where they both released there sadness through contact.

"I'm so sorry Tina" Logan whispered softly

"No it's fine" she whispered back "I overreacted"

"Honestly you didn't react enough"

"Do you want to come see her? I went to the toilet and was just heading back"

Nodding Logan whipped a tear from his eye and followed the estranged girl down the dull, colourless corridors until reaching a set of double doors that read EMERGENCY TREATMENT. Going through the doors it revealed a long stretch where between walled off areas where hospital were  beds holding patients. Passing family after family who were weeping for there relative, Logan's stomach tied into a tight knot and was getting more painful by the minute. Eventually they turned a corner and there she was.

Louise Belcher, the fiery little spitfire, lying motionless on a hospital bed. Machines were hooked up to her as they went off and on, making noises and reading all sorts of activity in her body. Covered by the covers of her bed, Gene, Linda and Bob were all circled around her petite body, holding her hand, touching her hair and talking silently to her while weeping non stop. They didn't even notice the arrival of Tina and Logan as they were far to shocked and shaken to realise they had viewers. The sight was too much for Logan as he turned around covering his eyes not bearing to look, the tears were coming down quick and had no chance of stopping. After a bit of composure he turned right around into a upper cut.

"You asshole!" Gene yelled

Falling to the ground, Logan looked up at his attacker as his chin began to sting.

"Do all of you react this way?" Logan asked with a hint of humour

Gene jumped onto Logan and grabbed his neck, strangling him without mercy.

"That's my sister you son of a bitch!" He shouted as Logan gasped for air, hammering on Genes arms as they tightened, squeezing all of the air out of him.

"Gene!" Bob yelled as he tried to take his son off of Logan

But Gene wasn't listening as the rage flickered in his eyes all of the life began  to fade out of Logan's. His eyes beginning to roll into the back of his head, doctors ran over to help Bob and together pulled him off. Logan sat up quickly and gasped for air as he checked his neck.

"Logan baby you ok?" Linda asked sweetly

Only able to muster a wheeze "yes" he stood up and had some water

Gene still infuriated had to be taken out to calm and relax, Bob and Linda taking there son walked away and left Tina and Logan to themselves.

"Sorry everyone is on edge right now"

"To be honest I would be to" Logan replied

"Yeah especially because we were told...." Tina began to choke up with tears

"Told what?" Logan asked worried

"We were told she may not make it" Tina then hurried out of the room and off to her family leaving Logan alone standing in the corner of the room.

"No" he whispered taking another step towards the hospital bed holding his true love "it can't be"

Walking to a seat right next to the bed he sat down and  he stared at the unconscious  girl with his hands covering his mouth. Closing his eyes tears tried there hardest to cool him down but Logan was at a point where it was impossible, for about 5 minutes the surreal moment had him crying his eyes out and looking on at Louise. Slowly he wrapped his arms around her cold, lifeless ones and cried harder. All the things he could of said and could of done raced through his mind at that moment and he wanted to say them all.

"You know your mother is terrifying right?" Amy's voice called from behind

Turning around to look at the nurse she was surprised at the absolutely wrecked state of Logan and was taken aback by his furious gaze which clearly spoke for itself and that this wasn't the time moment, but she carried on. Walking over to the machines and fiddling with the buttons and lights.

"I'm sorry wrong timing i was never good at reading people" she said guiltily

"Whatever" Logan said carelessly as he looked at Louise's perfect face resting peacefully

"You know there are study's that show people in comas can see and hear everything around them so if you have anything to say, which I bet you do, you can say it if you want"

"I wouldn't know where to start" Logan said as he lifted stroked Louise's hand gently

"How about a hello?" Amy suggested

"Ok then" Logan nodded taking a deep breath he quickly thought of everything that must be said and everything he always wanted to say. Now was the time to let lose and he wasn't loosing any precious time to spill the emotions he may never get to say again.

"Hello beautiful"
