Outcast

Fates twist

I'm sitting in a hospital chair watching Michael. the doctors have him stabilized for now but if he doesn't get better soon they will take him off the meds and wires and let him die.

He looks so peaceful when he's asleep like all the pain and worry has melted away. I can see the steady rise and fall of his chest. 'hello sweetheart,' a weak voice says. I look around before I realize its in my head. Michael!

'Hi!' I think a small hopeful smile spreads across my face.

'Why are you so sad?'

'Because your dying Michael'

'I'm not dying Taylor I'm just moving to another chapter in my life but I promise you that I won't leave without saying goodbye. can you promise me something?'

'Anything,'

'If I'm not better by morning unplug all the things keeping me alive, and also if I do die don't let our little girl suffer, goodbye,'

'Goodbye,' I whisper as he falls into a deep coma like state. I press the button for the doctor and she comes rushing in.

"Yes?" worry spread across her face.

"Can you make sure no one comes in this room without my permission?"

"Of course," she says with concern before leaving.

Once she's gone I crawl out of my chair and onto the bed curling up against his side and I wait till morning.

In the morning I try and give him as long as possible before I take away the items supporting him. after a hour or so I slowly crawl away from him and start unplugging things the last thing I unplug is the item that's breathing for him. I watch his heart beat and it starts to get slower and slower until it stops and a loud beeping comes from it. in rushes doctors and nurses trying to save him all I can do is stand and watch as the try manually starting his heart and breathing for him. a sudden calmness takes over as I watch at some point someone picks me up and takes me out of the room but I just continue watching through the window as their efforts start to become frantic. Then suddenly it's all over the doctors and nurses all stop and step away with tears in their eyes and I know it's not good happy tears. I wait for some part of me to die the way it did for my dad when my mom died but nothing happens I stand there searching for our bond and I find it its thin and on the brink of breaking but I use all the power I have to hold on to not let it break. When I open my eyes everyone is watching me as I struggle to hold on to keep him with me. The bond slowly starts to slip away and all I can do is feel his life slipping away with it. 'goodbye,' I hear before the bond shatters along with everything else.
