Love At First Sight

Chapter 61

Justin's POV

"JOSEPH?! JOSEPH?! WAKE UP! PLEASE WAKE UP! CAN YOU HEAR ME? JOSEPH?! DON'T LEAVE US! DEMI, SELENA HELP!" I just kept yelling at my son. Tears are running my face like crazy. I turned to see two nurses and a doctor rush over to the bed. One of the nurses started pulling me away from Joseph.

"Sir, stay back please!"

"Let me g-go! Please I want my s-son! I want my s-son!"

"Just stay back please Sir!" the nurse said keeping me back from Joseph's motionless body.

The doctor was shouted all these commands at the nurses and they were rushing around the room getting different equipment.

"1...2...3!" the doctor yelled performing CPR on my son's chest. Come on son. Come back. Wake up.

After about three tries and no response, the doctor removed his mask and turned to me.

"Mr and Mrs Bieber..." the doctor started. Oh my god please don't tell me...

"I'm so sorry but your son has passed away..."

I couldn't even speak. It was like I was choking on air. I turned to Demi and she was basically in hysterics, collasped on the ground, screaming Joseph's name cradled in Selena's arms. After the doctor and nurses did everything they could, they pulled a white sheet over his body. I've lost my only son. I feel like I've lost a part of myself as well. My heart hurts. I can't believe it. I didn't want to believe it. Nope. My son. My son? Dead? No way. I didn't want to believe he was really gone. I wanted to think that this was just some sick joke, yeah just some sick joke and he's gonna wake up and laugh with all of us and joke around, just like before. But I knew that wasn't going to happen.

"Mr Bieber?" the doctor said in a serious tone, interrupting my deep thoughts.

"Y-yes?"

"I'm sorry, we did everything we could. Your son lost a lot of blood and was very weak. We tried reviving him, tried to get his heart beating again but he was too weak. I'm very sorry."

"T-thank you doctor..." My voice came out in a harsh whisper. I patted his shoulder and he gave me a small smile before leaving the room with the other nurses, leaving Demi, Selena and I alone.

I felt anger within me. Just angry with everything. Why did this have to happen? Why now? None of us even got to say goodbye or anything. I'm angry with Delilah. I'm angry with myself. I'm angry because I wasn't with him when the incident happened, angry that my daughter never listens to me, went behind my back, snuck out of the house, stayed out past curfew, went to a party without mine or Demi's permission, stole my car keys, got drunk and wrecked my car. She's wrecked my life. She's basically just killed her brother. I still didn't wanna believe that one of my children have actually left the world. It was too soon. I don't need any more stress. I really don't need it right now. So I'm just gonna not speak to Delilah for a while. Just until I get my head straight 'cause right now it's so messed up.  

I walked over to Demi. "Dems, baby?"

She looked up from the ground with red eyes, sniffing. Selena was rubbing her back.

"W-what?"

"Don't worry, we're gonna get through this. We can do this. It's okay." I said hugging her, wiping her tears.

"J-Joseph?" she asked looking at me with tears in her eyes.

"Baby, Joseph's gone. He's d-dead." I told her.

"No he's not, h-he's not gone Justin." Her eyes widened as she spoke to me and ran her fingers through her hair. I pouted my bottom lip. My baby's in shock.

"Yes he is, Dems. Help me out here Sel." I said nudging her.

"Yeah Demi, he's...gone to a better place." Selena said to her.

Demi just shook her head and buried her face in her hands. She has to believe it. We'll get through this, I know we will. We're a strong bunch.

Comments?? :(
