Finding My Place (Pierce the Veil fanfiction)

Chapter 13:

---Lily’s POV---

            Beep beep beep. I heard it in the distance but I couldn’t figure out what it was. All I cared about was that my boys were running around having fun. Mike and Tony were boogie boarding in the ocean while Vic and Jaime were playing each other in volleyball. I was laying in the un with my eyes closed trying to nap. It was the most relaxing thing in the world and I didn’t want the day to end. I felt someone sit beside me and lean over me blocking the sun.

            “Baby wake up.” I opened my eyes to look at Vic. “Baby please it’s time to wake up.”

            “I am up. What do you me-“

            “Please baby.. I need you to wake up.” Everything went black and I could hear him crying.

            “Vic?! Vic where are you!” I could still hear him telling me to wake up. Suddenly it got brighter. I looked over and saw Vic  with his face down on the bed and his hand gripping mine for dear life. Where was I? I looked around and realized it was a hospital. Wasn’t I at a hotel? I saw Tony with his head on Mike’s lap and they were passed out. Where’s Jaime?

            “Lilly?” I looked at the door and there he was.

            “Jai..” Was all I could get out. Vic’s head shot up and a smile covered his face.

            “BABE!” He engulfed me in a hug. I got the energy to hug him back and almost cried.

            “Th-This is a hospital..right?” Jaime hit Mike and Tony and they both glared at him until they saw his smile. They looked at me and looked like they would cry. I smiled at them as best I could, but then I remembered why I was here. I looked down blocking my face with my hair. “W-where i-is h-he?” I asked.

            “In a jail cell where he belongs. He can’t hurt you anymore honey. We won’t let him.” Jaime said as he sat on the edge of the bed and pulled me into a hug. “I immediately hugged back and tried not to sob.

            “Th-thank you.. For saving me.. Thank you..”

            “Anytime.” He held me tighter. My eyes felt heavy and I started feeling tired.

            “I’m sleepy. How long have I been here..?”

            “Y..You’ve been asleep for 3 days. They say the mental shock of it all sent you into a coma like state. They thought you wouldn’t wake up for weeks.” Mike sand kissing the top of my head.

            “I had a dream. It was really nice. We were all at the beach. Mike and Tony were playing in the water and Jaime and you were playing Volleyball. It was funny, but you kept telling me to wake up. It was really confusing.. but you kept saying it. Then I did, and I saw you here. You kept calling me..” By the time I said all this my face was as red as a tomato and he just smiled at me.

            “I love you baby.” He kissed me. “I promise we’ll take you out as soon as we can for a fun time, okay? I’ll make all your dreams come true and you’ll never have to worry again. Now get some proper rest we’ll let the doc know you woke up and remember everything. I love you.”

            “Mm.. I love you too.” With that I drifted to sleep with my boys close by. The peaceful dreams never continued after I woke up. I had nightmares instead. The boys didn’t know and neither did the docs. I didn’t need to be on more medication then they’re already throwing me on.  Some to help me sleep, some for my paranoia, the trauma, and for the depression they diagnosed me with… And they made sure the boys know I need to take them all each day. Fuck. I hate pills.
