Descendant (divergent fan fiction)

Over

Harper's POV

"Drug overdose? Is that what you think this is?" Jackson says, furious.

"That's what I know." The doctor replies. My hand clasps my mouth to keep a sob from leaving my lips.

"Can we see her?" Jackson asks.

"Only immediate family for now." The doctor replies. Think for a moment unsure of what to do or say.

"This is her brother." I say pointing to Jackson. He turns to look at me bewildered, but soon realization sparked in his eyes and he sent me a subtle nod.

"Yeah I'm her brother." Jackson nods.

"Okay come on in." The doctor tells Jackson and he follows him through the automatic doors. We all sit back down in the waiting room.

"Why'd she do that?" I whisper in a hushed voice to Bianca who sat beside of me.

"I don't know Harper." Bianca says.

Amaryllis POV

The rooms spins around me as my eyes open. I try and steady my breaths that come out in short puffs. The room is white? Since when was the bathroom I passed out in white?

       The room around me steadies slowly and my eyes focus on the door where I hear voices. Jackson comes  through and I shrink back. Has he fingered out what I've done? I lay limp and weak under the light sheets. My  bones feel weak and I feel that they otcould break by any touch.

        "Amaryllis." Jackson whispers sitting beside of me. "Why?" A tear runs slowly down his face which I didn't expect.

         "I didn't expect this to happen." I started to cry. "I just wanted to sleep." I whisper.

        "Why didn't you just tell me?" Jackson asks with his voice full sorrow and pity.

"I don't know." I pull the covers tightly around me as if to block a wind that wasn't there. "I just wanted to be at peace and I can't do that because my mind is restless and you know why? Because I keep thinking of different ways that something could mess up and kill me and other people."

"I could've helped." Jackson says quietly to me.

"Maybe." I shrug.

"It's over?" Jackson asks more of a question than a statement.

I look up at him and just shake my head. "I don't think so."

"Will you let me help?"Jackson asks.

"I don't want you evolved in this." I smile weakly. "It'll all be over soon." I mutter so he can't even hear me, I thought.

"What'd you say." Jackson demands now all of a sudden serious.

"Nothing-" I start but he cuts me off.

"What did you say Amaryllis!" Jackson says loudly which only makes me shrink back more. He didn't understand what is was going through and he won't. He thinks he can help but he just can't.

"Don't yell at me!" I scream back.

Jacksons face softens. "I'm sorry I just need you to tell me what you said."

"Why does nobody else go through what I am? Am I the only one scarred from that experience?" I ask.
