Chapter 5-
5 Months Later-
Ever since the first time they got to see Brittany, the glee club has been visiting her three to four times a week after school. Whether it was to sing her her favorite songs or to just stay with her for couple hours. Lately, Brittany has been going on and off into critical mode. Earlier the present day, the doctor called Blaine and Sebastian to a meeting so they called the rest of the glee club to come. At the meeting, the doctor said that keeping Brittany hooked to the machines seemed to making her get worse. So if she didnt show any progress or wake-up in two weeks, he would be forced to pull the plug. But on the bright side, in the five months Brittany has been in the coma, all of her injuries healed. She did receive more than a few scars here and there.
Later that day, Sebastian was standing at the foot of Brittanys bed, when he had a flashback to the night before she got in her accident. The last time he saw her alive, they were drunk and about to have sex. After they almost had sex, he had feelings for her. They were gone now. All he felt for Brittany now was sorrow and remorse. But he also felt happy when he flash-backed to all the amazing moments they shared. Then back to sad when he remembered she may never open her eyes again.
Then Sam walked in and stood right beside Sebastian. He looked at Brittany, then Sebastian, then back to Brittany. He hesitated a second, then said, She liked you. And not just as a best friend. More. Thats how she almost pregnant. She slept with a bunch of guys trying to get over you. If only she knew you were the one who could get her over you. Thats the one good thing that came out of yall s make out session.
Wait. What? Sebastian asked, turning to face Sam. Brittany had more-than-friends feelings for me? Since when?
When you first walked through the choir room door, Sam replied. Its like love at first sight, Sam said, looking at Brittany. Her heart might have been beating. Her lungs might been filling with air. But it was like she was dead already.
Wow, Sebastian said raising his eyebrows, but not sounding very surprised. Wait a second. Why didnt you let me tell her I felt something that night when I was about to run after her? If she felt the same, we probably wouldve started dating. I wouldve chosen her and she wouldnt have gotten in her accident racing Blaine to my house. She wouldnt be in purgatory right now.
What? Purgatory? Sam asked.
Purgatory, Sebastian started explaining. A state between life and death. Or heaven and hell.
Whatever. Ill just watch LOST. I here thats what LOST is set in. Or thats what the island is, Sam said. I didnt tell you Brittany had strong feelings for you because she had to get over you. She had been hanging on to you and what she thought could happen for over a year! She was falling in love with you and then that night she got what she had been trying to get from other dudes. And even if she knew you felt something with her and you knew she had feelings for you and yall started dating, you wouldve broken up. And then she would be heart broken and might have never gotten over you. I didnt tell you for her own good.
Youre probably right, Sebastian said. Anyways, its too sad looking at her like this, and being in this hospital like I have been for the last five months. Im gonna go home to get some sleep. Sebastian left, leaving Sam alone with Brittany. Sam didnt want Brittany to be alone seeing that she might be dying in a couple weeks.
Sam sat with her for a while, watching her with her eyes closed, until he eventually fell asleepholding her hand.

Blaine was in the hospital cafeteria, eating, when Brittanys doctor sat down across from him holding what Blaine assumed was Brittanys file. Whats up, doc?
