Changing my Life

Chapter 13: News

~Mark~

I lurched upward. I was sweaty and breathing hard, memories of that horrible dream stuck to me, floating around my head. I had dreamt that Riley had died, then come back as a demon. She was angry with me for not being there for her. That she was pained that because of my stupidity, she was torn away from her family forever. I sighed and leaned forward, placing my head in my hands. She had to wake up. She just had to. I sighed and swung myself out of bed, and got in the shower, waiting for when I would have to make the damn video.

~ 30 Minutes Later ~

I sighed as I sat into my desk chair and turned on my webcam. I tried my best to put a smile on my face, for the fans at least. "Hello everyone! I figured it was time for another Vlog, however way you wanna pronounce that, um," I struggled to put my thoughts into words," as you know next week we are having a charity livestream for Child's Play. Um, Wade will be there, maybe Bob. But now to the really important news. If you've been watching my recent videos, you know that my friend, Riley, who plays on Supernatural, has been helping me out, you know, playing games and was going to join the livestream, but uh," I sighed and looked down, fighting back tears in front of my fans, "um, she- she cant. She can't do much of anything at the moment because she's... She's um, she's in the hospital. This man came up, crazy man and he," the tears brimmed over, warm on my face. I kept my eyes down as I continued, " He shot her." I raised my eyes, looking at the camera. I was crying now, holding back sobs," She's in a coma, and I don't know if she's even going to wake up-" I choked off at that last sentence, hand covering my mouth. I closed my eyes for a moment to stop the tears, and pulled in a ragged breath, " But I'm going to keep on posting. I know she'd be disappointed if I left you guys because of her, and she wouldn't want me to hurt you guys, So I'm going to keep posting. Sorry for being such a spoil- sport," I laughed, short and bitter. "So um, ill see you all at the livestream I hope. Bye Bye" I hoped my smile didn't show how in pain I was.

I sighed and sat down next to Jensen on the plane. We were flying back home to Texas. Filming was over, and I was eager to get home to Gen and Thomas. I decided to get on twitter to pass the time.  "Hmm" I mumbled to myself; Jensen's wife, Daneel, had sent me a link, a video made by some dude named... Markiplier? I plugged my headphones into my phone and cranked up the volume, curious. "Oh my gosh" I put down my phone when it was over, tears in my eyes. Jenesn looked over at me, curious. "What's up?" he asked. His eyes widened, "Is Gen ok?" he asked, worried now. I shook my head. I quickly explained what I had just watched, and his eyes widened in disbelief: during the short time she was on set, everyone had grown close to Riley. She got along well with everyone, simply adored Gen and Dani, and fit in well with everyone. I just couldn't believe what was going on. I called Gen, unsure of what to do to help my friend.

*Mark*

I sighed, and pushed away from the desk. My phone rang on the table beside me. "Hello?" I asked. "Mark?"  the unknown speaker asked. Whoever she was, she  had a rather pleasing British accent. "I'm at the hospital with Riley, they told me to call you. Come NOW" click. I jumped up, grabbed my keys, and ran out my apartment.

When I got to her room, everyone was standing outside; her friends, her family. I darted my eyes around in panic at their tear streaked faces. A woman with medium length brown hair and large blue eyes grabbed my arm and pulled me away. She was followed by a short red-headed woman with tears running down her freckly face. "What's going on?" I asked," Is she ok?" my voice was rising, and I struggled to keep myself in check. I didn't want to yell at them, there was no point. The blue-eyed girl sighed. "We don't know," she had a rather pleasing southern accent," I got here a little while ago. When I got here, almost immediately, four nurses ran past and into her room. Something went wrong they said." she sighed, tears running down her round face. "They said she was dying" she sighed out. A man with dark hair and tan skin walked up, and I turned to the other girl as she buried her face in his shoulder. The red-head sighed. "I'm Lauren, and that was Jordan." she sighed, wiping tears from her green eyes. I knew them now; they were two of Riley's close friends. I looked at the door, needing to know what would happen. I sighed and leaned against the wall, then sunk to the floor, hands in my hair. I couldn't help it, all I could do was cry. I heard footsteps, then the red-head girl had her arms around me. She was trying her best to soothe me, but what did it matter anymore. I heard the sound of the door opening; my head whipped up. Several nurses were filing out, and a doctor stood in front of us. I jumped to my feet, dragging Lauren up with me, and waited. He said nothing, just extended an arm out to the door. In three long strides, I had made it to the handle first. I gasped when I walked in, and started crying again.
