Chapter 38

Beau's Pov

She might not wake up. She might be gone. It couldn't be possible right? I wouldn't lose her. She will wake up. She'll show me her beautiful smile and she'll be here with me. She couldn't leave me.

"But wasn't the surgery a success?" I asked shakedly.

He nodded,"It was, but sometimes this happens. The brain is a wonder even to us."

"She will wake up right?"

"Of that, we're not to sure."

My heart sank and I fell backwards into the seat. Everyone was in silence. We didn't have anything to say. 

"I'm really sorry. You can go see her now, but two people at a time please."

He left and I kept my face in my hands.

"We'll go first," her dad said.

I nodded and heard them leave. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I looked up.

"She'll wake up," Chase said confidently. 

"I need her."

"Trust her."

He walked away and went and burried his head in June's shoulder. I had to wait patiently. I had to believe that she was okay.

3 weeks later..

"I'm here to see -"

"Abigail, I know," the nurse said smiling.

I didn't smile back. I came everyday just to see her. I was waiting for her to wake up. I knew she would. I walked into her room, seeing her unmoving as usual. I sighed softly, my heart dropping at the sight of her. 

This always happened. I would always come into her room, hoping that she would give me her usual smile. But she hasn't. Not for the past three weeks.

I sat in the usual seat beside her bed. I held her hand in mine. I didn't know what to say. I never did.

I laid my head in the covers, blinking the tears away. 

"Abby, it's been three weeks. I miss you.

"It's been so freaking long since I've seen you smile, or since I've seen your beautiful eyes. How much more will I have to wait just for you to respond?"

The tears came quietly. It seemed that everytime I was near her, I would break down. I just missed her. It was weird not getting one single answer from her and it hurt. It hurt so bad. 

"Abby.. baby .. wake up.. Please wake up.."

"I need you," my voice broke and the tears came faster.

I didn't bother wiping them off, I knew if she was awake, she wouldn't judge me. 

"I'm sorry babygirl. I can't help it. I miss you to much."

I leaned over and kissed her forehead,"Imma go now. I'll come back tomorrow. I pinky promise. I love you."

I stood up and left, walking downstairs to my car. I needed her so much more than she knew. I kept hoping that she'd wake up soon. 

I got inside the car and shut the door loudly. I drove away, leaving Abby behind me. I already couldn't wait to come tomorrow. I just missed her to much.

I started driving toward the school. School had ended last week and tomorrow was graduation. I didn't feel like going. Not when Abby wasn't there as I knew she would've been. I parked outside, and got out. I didn't feel like practicing. I just wanted Abby. Just her.

"Beau Ryder."

I ignored the applause as I got up to get my diploma. I shook the principals hand as he gave it to me.

"Good luck Mr. Ryder."

"Thank you," I said softly.

"BEAU!"

I turned around and saw my mom rushing toward me.

"She's awake. Abby-"

I didn't listen as I tore off toward my car. I had brought it since I was going to see Abby after graduation. Chase was right behind me and I understood. His parents must have already been there. We got in and I drove away. I parked outside and we ran out. I didn't even bother to lock my car. I felt frantic. She was awake. Finally. 

We ran inside, forgetting that we had on our graduation robes. I opened the door to her room and ran inside. My heart leaped in my chest as I saw Abby staring at me. 

She gave me her smile.

"Abby.. You-You're awake."

She grinned,"I am."

I stumbled toward her, tears falling down my cheeks. She lifted her hand toward me and I took it, falling on my knees beside her bed. I pressed my head into her stomach while she rubbed my back.

"Shh, shh don't cry Beau. I'm here. I wouldn't have ever left you."

I continued crying. I couldn't believe it. She was finally awake.

She gasped,"Oh my gosh! Today was graduation wasn't it. I'm sorry did I disturb you?"

I looked up at her and smiled,"No of course not! I'd rather be here with you."

She smiled at me and we stayed quiet. I brought her lips to mine. I had missed her so much. I didn't care that her family was behind us. I just needed her. I wrapped my arms around her, pushing her body close to mine.

I pulled away and leaned my forehead against hers,"I missed you," I whispered.

She smiled and pecked my lips,"Me more."

I heard her dad coughing behind us,"Uhmm"

I pulled away my neck getting red. She giggled.

"Yeah bro, lemme welcome back my sister. You can smooch later," Chase said.

I blushed even more, but moved away. I smiled goofily at her. She was awake. That was all that mattered. I was happy. 

"I love you," She mouthed at me.

I grinned,"I love you too," I mouthed back.

Ugh! Finally! I know right? Sorry for the long wait. I just had a lot of stuff going on ... And if you didn't ready my other new story, you wouldn't know why. Two of my friends drowned... I didn't feel like doing much after that... So, I hope you understand, if you don't, I really don't care. I was really close to those two boys and they're very important to me. I needed time to let that sink in. But anyways here you go. I hope you enjoy it. And the fact that I've had a lot going on. This is the last chapter! I'll be posting the epilogue in a few days ... Idk when! So stay tune for that. I've spent like 5 months writing this short story >_< I know a very long time. Thanks for everyone who read it and voted on it. I will be rewriting it. When? I have no idea. I won't be posting any new stories for a while. I'm just wanting to finish these three I had started before all this happened, and focus on my new story "Dear Boyfriend".  

I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!! <3
