Forgotten

Chapter 3

Corey's POV
It was like everything happened so fast yet so slow. I didn't see the car out of the corner of my eye. The tears that built up in my eyes blurred everything. I heard a loud screech but they didn't stop in time. It all seemed to happen in slow motion, next thing I knew I was hit really hard and the driver gets out to check on me.

"Oh my god. Is she okay?" A woman's voice asks. The driver, a man who looked about in his forties bent down next to me.

"Are you okay sweetheart?" He asks. My vision blurs and before everything goes black I hear.

"Someone hurry up and call 911!"

Mark's POV
Maybe I shouldn't have unloaded on Corey like that. I feel really bad now. I try calling her but she doesn't answer. I mean why should she? I practically accused her of cheating. A few minutes go by and I get a call from a random number.

"Hello?" I answer.

"Mark? It's Kent, Corey's dad."

"Oh hey Mr.Rivers. What's up?"

"Um there's been an accident, Corey is in the hospital."

"Which one?" I ask panicked, I already have one of my shoes on.

"The one just down the street from our house."

"Okay I'll be over there in ten." I say before hanging up. I slip my other shoe on as well as my hoodie. I grab my car keys and go down stairs. (Okay I know Mark is fifteen but you can have your permit when you're fifteen so we're just gonna say he can drive.)

"Hey sweetie where you going?" My mom asks as she walks in from the living room.

"Hospital."

"Why?"

"Corey got in an accident so she's in the hospital."

"I thought she was hanging out over here?"

"Yeah she was but we got into an argument."

"Well here let me go with you." She says and I nod. She slips her shoes on and grabs her phone and jacket. "Honey let me drive." She says and I nod. I wasn't in any mood to argue I just wanted to get to the hospital.

"Yeah that's fine I just want to go to the hospital." I say handing her the keys and she nods.

The whole way to the hospital I couldn't calm down. I was literally freaking out. What if Corey's not okay? And the last thing I told her was to leave.

We finally pull up to the hospital and I barely let my mom stop the car before I jump out of it. I run into the lobby of the hospital and up to the front desk.

"Can I help you?" The receptionist asks as I get up to her desk.

"I'm looking for Corey Rivers." I say and she nods. She starts typing on her computer.

"She's in room 498 floor five." She says and I nod.

I run over to the elevator and it takes forever. Fed up with the stupid elevator I run over to the stairwell. I run up the stairs as fast as I can and finally get to the fifth floor. I go over to her room seeing Mr.Rivers.

"Hey son." He says as I get to her room.

"Is she okay?" Is the first thing to come out of my mouth.

"She's responsive but she's not awake yet." He says and I nod.

"Can I go in there?"

"Of course." He answers.

I walk into the hospital bed seeing my beautiful girlfriend. She's asleep on the hospital bed hooked up with wires to different machines. Then it hits me. I put her here. I walk over sitting in the chair next to the bed.

"Corey I'm so sorry I out you here. Babygirl this is all my fault. If I wouldn't have gotten mad at you this would've never happened. Please wake up babe. I need to know that you are okay." I tell her. A few seconds go by and her eyes flutter open. "Corey! You're awake." I say excitedly.

Corey's POV
I wake up from what seems like a year long nap. I look over seeing this guy. He's kinda hot if I do say so myself.

"Corey! Your awake." He says with a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry. Who are you?"
