Every Second (Cody Simpson)

Goodbye and Hello (9)

Cody's POV

I was right, the ride felt like forever, but when I got there I grabbed Jessica and sprinted inside. I looked around screaming, "Someone please help! She's losing too much blood, help!" The minute I finished this sentence there were doctors taking her away and nurses holding me back, please be okay.

She's my everything, how could I let this happen? She doesn't deserve this, nobody does, not even Bella. Alli and Mum burst through the front doors, their cheeks were stained with tears and their eyes were filled with fresh ones. Alli sat down next to me and the minute she laid her head against my shoulder we both started crying.

I can't help but wish that this was all a dream, it's been about ten minutes and the doctors allowed us to go see her. Her arm was wrapped in white cloth, the bleeding had stopped, but she was pale, too pale. They gave us some sad looks as they told us that she may only have a few more minutes. I let out a muffled scream and felt the tears stream down my face.

Jessica's POV

I heard Cody crying, what have I done? I tried to open my eyes, move an arm, anything, but it all seemed too impossible. Suddenly, I felt light, I was looking down on the situation.

I saw Cody, Alli, and Angie crying hysterically as the heart monitor slowed. No, I can't go, I looked up and saw my Nana, suddenly I was standing next to her, the heart monitors' beeps echoing in my mind, slower, slower.

She smiled and said, "Go, go back to him, he loves you as much as I do. I've had plenty of time to spend with you, it's his turn. I love you, sweetheart."

I smiled, hugged her, and heard the heart monitor go flat as I said, "I love you too."

Cody screamed and fell to the floor clutching his chest in mourn, but I wouldn't wait a moment longer. I flew full speed back to earth, back to life, back to Cody. I heard the beeps of the heart monitor, faster, faster, I felt my body being pulled down by gravity, stronger, and I felt the relief in Cody's heart.

He looked up in disbelief, thinking you lost someone that you couldn't live without is hell, I know how he feels. The wind carries him to me, his arms mold around my body, and I've never felt so ashamed.

I don't want him to think I did this for attention, that's the last thing I would do, I'm not like that. He pulled back, looking into my eyes, he cupped my face with his gentle hands, "Don't ever do that again, no matter how much hate you get on twitter or how hard it is, I will be your light at the end of that dark tunnel, okay?" I let the tears fall on my cheeks as I nodded, nothing mattered to me more than him, I choked on my words and was crying hysterically on his shoulder.

***

The car ride was filled with carefully chosen words and the reassuring squeezes that Cody gave as he held my hand. We pulled up to Cody's beach house, light from camera flashes leaked through the darkly tinted windows, I don't want to deal with paparazi right now.

Cody handed me his grey sweatshirt and said, "You don't need to listen to them ask what the bandages are, I want to protect you, keep you safe, okay?" I just nodded my head and threw the sweatshirt on. The screams of fans, shouts of desperate paparazi, and the burning light from cameras engulfed me the minute we stepped out of the car, Cody rushed me through the gates of the house before anyone started asking too many questions.

Alli and Angie came in the doors right after us, "Bring her up to your room, when the fans start asking questions please, please just try to ignore it Cody, it's not worth it," Angie instructed Cody.

I saw a flame in Cody's eye and knew that he was going to do something stupid, so once we were in his room I said, "Whatever you think you're about to do, don't even try." He just shook his head, sat on the bed, and pulled out his phone, I didn't really think anything of it, so I decided to walk around to the other side of the bed and lay down.
