The Story Of My Life ( A Jacksgap Story )

Chapter Seventeen, Jack!

Everything was a mix of sirens, flashing lights and tears. I found the courage to look up from Finns shoulder. Jacks eyes were closed and his flawless skin was stained with blood. More tears escaped my eyes. I grabbed a hold of Jacks hand again and just stare at his lifeless face. 

"JACK!" I yell, I know he probably couldn't hear me, but I refused to believe it. "Jack..." I whispered. Finn pulls me back by the shoulders and Jacks hand slips out of mine. My heart hurts, I just pray that he is going to be okay. Suddenly the ambluance stops and Jack is quickly rushed out. I quickly follow Jacks gurney. He is rushed into a room I could not enter. I felt seperate from him, I felt like he was a million miles away. 

"JACK!" I call out not caring who looks at me. Finn hugs me, and I sink into a ball on the floor. I cried out for him. Finn stands me up and walks me to some chairs. I slouch down and rest my head on Finns shoulder. I wipe away my tears after awhile, and sit up straight. I look over at Finn who looks emotionless. Not one tear had been shed. 

"Finn?" I whisper

"Who did this?" He asked angrily.

"Lewis" 

"Right" He stood up and began to walk towards the door. I jump up and run infront of him.

"Where are you going?" I ask him.

"I'm going to beat the shit out of the bastard that did this to my brother!"

"AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO FINN? YOU KNOW THAT NOTHING WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE YOUR NOT THAT KIND OF PERSON! NO-ONE WANTS REVENGE MORE THAN ME BUT..." I trail off and stare into space. Finn looked at me with tears in his eyes. More tears caress his cheek and I hug him. We said nothing more and we sat back down. It felt like forever, nothing happened. The more I waited, the more worried I became. Then suddenly a nurse appeared, as if from nowhere. 

"Mr Harries?" She asked Finn. He quickly stood up.

"Yes?"

"Please follow me"

"What about her?" Finn gestured towards me.

"And what relation is she to the patient?"

"She is his wife" Finn answered bitterly. She looked at me and nodded. 

"Both of you, please follow me" Finn and I follow her down a narrow corridor. She then shows us to a huge clean room, One wall completely replaced with windows. But the main feature was my unconcious huband, lying motionless in a hospital bed. I rush over to his side and take a hold of his hand, never wanting to let go. I hold his hand to my forhead and press. He looked grey, and had lost the brightness that was his personality. I sat down beside him and stroked his hair, not letting go of his hand. 

"What happened to you?" I whipered. 

"Mrs. Harries? May we talk to you?" 

"Yes, okay" I say not looking away from him. I tear my gaze away from him and walk over to the nurse. 

"We have discovered the cause. Your husband sustained multiple blows to the head, abdomen, and throat. I'm afraid we have to put Mr. Harries into an induced coma to allow the damage to heal. This will not effect his memory or his brain function. We are sorry. We will return shortly to take your husband to theatre" The nurse informed us. Metally I broke down, but physically I tried to be strong. The nurse left, and I rushed over to Jacks side. His eyes flickered open, and his hand reached for mine. I held on to his hand tight, not wanting to ever let go. With his other hand, he reached up to his oxygen mask and pulled it off. 

"I love you" Jack whipsered, before his eyes closed again. I began to cry again, and cover my mouth. 

"I love you too, honey. Everything is going to be okay" I whispered back and pecked his forhead. 3 nurses came back in the the room and began to wheel Jack away. Finn kissed his brothers forehead and they wheeled him away. I began crying more and more. I curled up into a ball and buried my face in my legs. 

"Come on" Finn says, trying to hide the wimper in his voice. He stands me up and places me into a seat. I felt awful, I havent allowed Finn to express his feelings.

"Finn..."

"Yeah..."

"You can stop hiding it now"

"What?"

"We are both are worried and angry, but you have been trying to stay strong. You don't have to you know" 

He leans forward and takes a deep breath. I see him quickly wipe a away a tear. I wrap my arm across his back. Forever keeps on passing. It felt like days before Jack got back. Then they wheeled Jack back in to his room. I was stuck on the chair, as he was wheeled in front of me. I already missed his sparkling eyes and his stunning smile. 

"How long will he in this coma?" I ask the doctor.

"4-5 weeks, I'm afraid" He says then leave us with Jack.

"I'm not leaving him"

"Neither of us are, but we well have to go home at some point"

I let out a sigh " I know, it's going to be a long four weeks"
