Some Type of Love (Then There's You Book #2) (Charlie Puth Fan fiction)

Chapter 10

I woke up feeling awful. I felt so weak. My whole body ached. Not until I processed my thoughts did I realize that I was in a hospital bed.

I felt a firm grip on my hand. I shifted my eyes to see Charlie. His mouth and both his hands were on my hand. He was whispering. Tears were running from his face onto my hand.

He didn't notice that I was awake. "Charlie", I whispered. He didn't notice me. "Charlie", I said a little louder but it hurt. His eyes quickly looked up at me. He froze. He looked awful, worse than i had ever seen him.

He placed his hand on my cheek. "Charlie".

"I'm right here, Alli. Don't worry".

His voice barely came out. He squeezed my hand tighter, buried his face into it and sobbed. "Charlie, what happened? Where am I?"

He looked up with depressing eyes. "You're at the hospital. We got in a crash. You were in a coma".

I stopped. "Are you okay?"

He weakly smiled. "I barely got hurt."

"I..." I started.

He put his hand on my cheek." You need to rest". He slowly got up. "Charlie, please don't leave. Please. Please stay". I spoke with desperation.

His eyes were filled with pain and he was torn.

"I promise ill be back soon".

He walked out and I was left feeling very lonely.

I started thinking. I remembered the crash. I remember throwing himself to cover me.

I started crying at the thought. I missed him, even though he had just left.

He came in following the doctor later. The doctor did a few things, and then left us.

Charlie sat back down and grabbed my hand.

"Charlie, don't be so sad. I'm fine".

His eyes froze. "Stop Alli. Stop.... Please".

"Charlie".

He couldn't bear to hear me speak. "Stop Alli! Please stop talking!"

I felt hurt and pulled my hand away. He grabbed it. "No no no. Alli, please don't do that".

I felt so angry. "Then what do I do? What is wrong with you Charlie?"

His eyes filled with pain again.

I knew he wanted to hold me tight. His eyes couldn't focus and he struggled to breathe. I pulled him close. He was shaking wildly. "Alli, I thought I .....lost you .....forever. Everyone thought you were going to die".

He couldn't take a breath from crying. I stroked his hair softly. "Charlie, none of that matters. I'm fine now."

He looked away. He swallowed hard. "Alli...... You don't understand. I thought I was alone."

I sat up. I winced in pain. He grabbed me. "I'm fine Charlie. Stop".

I pushed his hands away. They were shaking. "Charlie, where are my parents? Where's Cody? Where's Gigi?"

He looked away. He wouldn't look at me.

"Charlie. Look at me".

He slowly turned his eyes towards me. They were shaky and swelling.

"Charlie, where is everyone? Why aren't they here?"

He started crying. He stuttered as he spoke. "They.... They.... Don't know. I didn't tell them".
