Fly [S.M]

*Lyssa POV* 

"Hey mom when is Lex coming over?" Royce asked,  from his laptop. Simon got him into YouTube. Royce is 19, and Lexi lives on her own. She lives in America with her fiancé. I know crazy right? My little Lexi getting married. 

"I have no idea, she should be here soon. Why don't you call her? Her and Kyle should be able to answer now." I smiled at my son. 

"Did you hear from the hospital?" He randomly asked. 

"He's not doing good." I choked back a sob at the thought,"He's a fighter, he will definitely love to see you and Lexi." 

"Can we go and ask her to meet us?" 

"No Royce, we will go as a family." I snapped. 

Just then the front door opened, I sat up fast and looked to the door. Sadly it was Vik. 

"How's Simon?" He didn't even say hi. 

"Not good Vik. You know that!" I hissed. 

"Hey do you know whose car that is?" Royce mumbled glancing out of the window, within a moment he broke out in a sprint out the door. 

I watched out the door with Vik as Royce jumped on Lexi. 

"Lex we need to go to the hospital." He pulled her into the house, Kyle followed. I haven't seen Lexi since she moved out years ago. 

Kyle:

"What's at the hospital?" She asked confused as Royce pushed her into the house. 

"Dad!" He yelled. 

"Mom?" She looked at me. 

"I didn't want to worry you. Your dad was in a bad car accident. It was a head on collision about three days ago. He's been in a coma and they said if he doesn't wake up soon they will-"

"Oh my god." She looked like she was about to cry. We all have been. 

"Hey kiddo!" Vik yelled at Lex and hugged her. 

"Uncle Vik." She cried in his shoulder. 

Kyle walked up,"Hello Mrs. Minter, Royce, Mr. Barn." 

"Its Lyssa and Vik." I shook his hand. 

"I know how hard it is. Remember I lost a wife and a kid at the same time." Vik mumbled to Lexi. Lexi softly nodded. During Simon's crash, he as picking up Nicole and Max. They both died instantly due to the impact.

"They are going to pull the plug today." Royce looked at me, and his eyes widened. Lexi looked at me and stormed up to me. 

"You have no right to not tell me about my father!" She yelled in my face,"Why wouldn't you tell me?! Your a horrible mom! A horrible wife!"

"Lex!" Kyle yelled at her, she shut her mouth,"We can go now. That's all. You can't blame your mom. She didn't wanna concern you or us until we were here." 

"Let's go." She hissed with a stray tear going down her face.

~~~~~~~~~~~

I had my cane with me today, I am 50 something these days. Maybe around there, I lost track. We walked into the hospital, me, Vik, Lexi, Royce, and Kyle. 

It took a while to get to Simon's room, but when we did, Lexi ran to his ride and collapsed. She was crying so hard holding onto Simon's hand. 

"Please wake up dad. I don't want you to die." 

Beep...beep.... Beep.

Royce took out his phone and took a photo if Simon. I'm not sure what he did, if he posted it or not. All of our kids are youtubers now. The next generation. They are called the ultimate generation, I know they are all losers. 

"Dad please." Lex cried Royce walked over to her, and they began talking to Simon. 

"Please Si. Pull a miracle" I held in a cry. Royce and I come here every day since he was put in for a few hours. 

"We need you." Vik mumbled sitting down. 

Beep...beep.... Beep.

It was the only noise we heard besides the sobs. 

"Dad I know you can hear us. Please!" Lexi screamed.

I sat down in a chair, I held my head in my hands. I know how this goes, Nicole was a doctor before she passed, she showed me what its like to work as a doctor. 

The crushing reality hit, he's not waking up ever again. 

"Oh god, please let me keep my dad. I need him, and I love him. Its not fair you already got aunt Nicole and Max." Royce cried out, his hands in a prayer. 

Lexi stopped crying and you could see it in her face she was angry. 

"He's not going to live." She snapped quietly.

"Don't say that!" Royce smacked her and she glared at him. 

Beep...beep.... Beep.

~~~~~~~~~

We stayed here until the doctor came in,"Its time." We all had our shares of crying and begging. 

"Dad this is the time to wake up." Royce snapped shaking his dads arm. 

"Royce stop! Let him not...he's suffering." Lexi snapped crying in Kyles shoulder. 

"I'm sorry guys. I know how hard this must be." The doctor sadly smiled us. 

"Just do it." Royce yelled running out of the room. 

"I love you Si." I cried hard. 

"I'll see you soon enough." Vik sniffed in a cry. 

"Bye dad." Lexi yelled crying. 

Beep.beep.beep.beep.beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

He's gone.

~~~~~~~~~

Days passed and no one spoke to another. No one is the same after that. No one was the same even when the crash first happened when we lost Nicole and Max. 

"Dinner." Vik called out, I laid in a ball on a chair crying. Royce refused to eat or to talk. Lexi couldn't hold a sentence without crying. Mia wouldn't come out of her room.

~~~~~~~~~~

Its been a year since Simon passed away. We all visit his grave once a week to tell him how things are. Lexi moved back to the UK, and is now having a baby. She is fully married to Kyle. I can feel my days, they are numbered. 

I crawled onto the roof with Royce. I explained to him this was where me and Simon would hang out, and it was my favorite spot. 

I stood up like how I use to when we were younger. 

I remember the one memory of Simon and me here. We reenacted the Titanic scene. I felt his arms wrap around my hips and I heard his laugh, and I smiled. 

"Mom be careful." Royce reminded me. 

"I'll be fine my sweet boy." I smiled at Royce and let the tear go down my cheek.

In that moment, with the air blowing though my clothes I felt like I could fly.

The end.
