JUST in time

I don't know what to fucking do with this bullet if he doesn't wake up! "Goddamnit Luke please wake up I need you!" I shout at his weak body. I can't deal with the fact I'm losing another person close to me... No way in hell I will be able to control myself.

"Camille, I'm so sorry.." I heard Calum groan from behind me. "He's not going to die." I shook my head. "Not on my hands." I added.

"Does anyone know what I have to do with this thing?" I said, holding up the bullet. "I never even heard of wolfsbane before, what do you think?" Ashton said. "I have no clue, I'm very sorry." Calum said. He was still laying against the wall on the other side of the room and actually felt really sorry for me.

'Camille, listen.' I heard Zack say.

I did as he said. "To what Zack?" I asked.

'His heart, keep listening.'

And when I did, I heard it too. It has sped up. It still isn't steady but it beats a little faster. My eyes widened. "But how am I supposed to know what to do now? He's still to weak to wake up and I can't reach him through mindlink." I said.

'Once I need to teach you about how to dive into someone's mind. But for now, give him the amulet.'

What? Which amulet? I started thinking what the hell he was rambling about...

'The necklace that made me your guardian. It's an amulet. Did I tell you I can read your mind? I will send some heat through the necklace and his instinct will get him to wake up. But we need to act fast, he isn't going to last long.'

"Come on please let this work." I whispered as I put my necklace around Luke's neck. I held the bullet in my hand. I watched Zack as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then the necklace lit up for a second and a loud gasp goes through the room as his eyes opened wide. He got the necklace off his neck and threw it away.

"Luke I have it, please tell me what to do to save you." I held up the bullet. He grabbed the bullet off my hand and cracked it open with his teeth. The powder that stuck on his fingers looked a very dark purple colour. He pressed his fingers into the wound and groaned. I looked away, ew.

I sat against the wall beside Luke and just didn't know what to think. Was he going to make it? Or is he still dying?

Zack walked over to the amulet, picked it up with his teeth and brought it over to me. Of course, he can't communicate with me or read my thoughts without me wearing it. I put it around my neck again before closing my arms around my legs, staring at the wall, listening to Luke's heart, still tearing up.

'Camille, he's going to be okay, I promise.' I heard Zack whining in my head. It sounds like he's upset about something too.

"What's it Zack?" I asked.

'I can feel everything you feel, and right now? I can tell it feels horrible.' He whined.

"I know, tell me about it." I weakly laughed. Not long after that I felt how Luke slowly grabbed my arm and softly squeezed it. When I looked to the side I saw how he gave me a weak smile. His eyes were still filled with pain, but not with death and that was what's most important to me...

I saw how he was struggling to stay straight and not collapse to the ground. "Come here buddy." I smiled, holding up my arm for him to crawl under. "Your clothes will get messed up by the blood." He awkwardly said. "You really think I care more about my clothes than about you? You're crazy" I laughed. "C'mon, before you fall to the floor." I laughed. I smiled as Luke lay down against me.

"You okay now?" I quietly asked. "It still hurts, but I guess the good thing is I'm healing." "Yeah, you are. But VERY slow, it might take like a week." "As long as its healing I'm okay with that. But... about the kid... I'm really sorry I let this happen, I'm not even close to a good friend, I'm a useless friend, I'm so sorry I let this happen to your mate." "YO HEMMINGS, calm down, dude it's okay, you're still my friend, I need to make sure you're okay, and when you're ready we're going to find this son of a bitch and send him straight to hell." I laughed. "Oh HELL yeah." He laughed back.

I played with his hair while Luke was slowly falling to sleep. But I noticed something strange. It felt like jealousy and it came from the other side of the room. Calum. Was he jealous of Luke? Why? I was having trouble holding back laughter, I mean its quite funny though.

I heard Zack laugh in my head. 'Stop having funny thoughts you bastard.'

'What? Calum being jealous, you have to admit it's kinda funny' I minlinked Zack.
'Yeah kinda' he laughed.

I dont want to talk, it might wake Luke up and he just fell asleep seconds ago.

'Why you jealous Calum? You want a hug too?' I mindlinked. He looked up with a confused look in his eyes. "How did you..." I cut him off.

'You want to, or not? Is that why you're so jealous? Jesus the smell is seriously unbearable!' I mindlinked again. He blushed but then awkwardly nodded. I gestured him to come over. He did, but he was kind of struggling to get up. His wound still isn't healed but it's getting there.

He lay down beside me and I pulled him against me. "Next time, just ask." I giggled in his ear. It actually felt nice having him close. He was like a giant teddy bear, I liked it. I lay my head on his and waited for the sign Zack going to give me when I had to leave. I can't turn here. I will probably hunt all night until I find Michael, I hate that the boys can't come and help me, which is why I'm taking Zack. Ashton will stay here with the boys and stay at the hospital. I mean, he can sleep on the bed now, since Michael is gone.
