Micka's Life

Chapter 7

~ Chapter 7 ~

After getting out Molnija marks, we just began to talk and Maya and I found out that the Guardian was Rien's brother Alec.

Maya, Rien and I were drinking when I suddenly felt hot. My temperature had risen and it felt like I couldn't breath.

I look at them with a small smile and say, "I'll be right back, just need a little fresh air." Then I head outside.

When I was outside, I took deep breaths. Glancing around the area, I see Alec by a tree. I wanted to talk to him so I made my way towards him, but suddenly a wave of nausea hit me. I lean against the wall for support and took more deep breaths.

"Hey what's wrong?"

I blink and look at the person who had spoken, it was Alec. I smile a little at him, "I'm alright... Just a little nauseous..."

He shakes his head and says, "It doesn't seem like it's just nausea to me. Do you want me to call Rien over?"

I bite my lip and shake my head in return, not wanting Rien to worry about me. "No... It's okay."

His eyebrows furrow, "Alright, but you should sit down..." he grabs me gently by the arm and helps me over to a bench. I sit down and look at the ground. "Thanks" I mumble to him.

After a few moments, he hands me a bottle of water and I just look at it. I shake my head and put the bottle down on the ground, "Thanks but no thanks.."

He nods then leans against a tree next to the bench.

As I look at the ground, I suddenly feel as if I can't breathe. I get up abruptly from the bench and begin to try and walk as fast as I can to the infirmary. I begin to feel light-headed from the lack of oxygen and I begin to panic.

I kept trying to gasp in air but it wasn't working.

My vision became blurry and I collapsed then blacked out.

No one's POV

Alec was able to catch Micka before she hit the ground. He shakes her slightly, "Ms. Stealle? Ms. Stealle?" He rushes her to the infirmary and the doctors took Micka from him then tells him to wait outside.

He calls Rien and Rien picks up on the first ring.

"Alec, have you seen Micka? You know Micka Stealle?" Rien says before Alec could say something.

"Yeah, that's why I called you.. She's um.. she suddenly fainted, and I took her to the infirmary.." Alec tells him. Rien suddenly hangs up the phone, and twenty seconds later, he ran into him from the other side of the room, nearly out of breath.

"Why didn't you call me sooner!" Rien shouts. "Fuck you, she's sick! I will kill you if something happens to her!" Rien pushs Alec and Alec bumps into the wall behind him.

Alec crings, "Calm down Rien, shouting won't get Micka better. You should shut up for a while." Alec pushes him down onto the couch beside them.

Rien sighs and covers his face with his hands while Alec sits down beside his brother. And then they wait...

-------

Micka was still unconscious until suddenly she stops breathing. The doctor yells, "She's not breathing!" then begins to do CPR.

Rien rushes into the room and he goes to Micka's side. He takes Micka's hands in his tightly.

"Micka... don't leave me please.." He sobs. "I love you, I can't stand losing you.."

The doctor kept performing CPR while a nurse asks Alec to get Rien out of the room. Alec goes into the room then grabs Rien. He was surprised that Rien didn't fight back. All Rien did was sit back down on the couch and stare at the floor while tears stream down his face as he mutters Micka's name over and over.

--------

Few minutes later, a nurse runs out of the room then goes back in. Suddenly, there was commotion coming from the room.

A nurse comes out and asks Rien and Alec to hold Micka down, since she was thrashing around.

Rien rushes in the room and immediately hugs Micka.

"Micka.. calm down.. shh.. calm down." he whispers to her  while he hugs her tightly.

Micka thrashs for a few seconds not knowing it was Rien because her mind was a bit fuzzy. She then calms down, finally realizing who it was and whispers, "Rien..." and slowly wraps her arms around him.

Rien kisses her head and mumbles, "Micka.. thank God you're alive.." he starts to sob.

Micka's POV

I bury my face into his shoulder and stroke his hair gently. "It's okay... I'm here..."

Rien continues to hold me as he says, "I..don't want to lose you. I don't know what I'd do if I lose you.."

I look at him and only focus on him. "Rien... I'm here. I'll be here for you always. Dead or alive, I will always be with you..." I whisper. He shakes his head, "Don't say that, I can't stand seeing you dying again."

I hug him more tightly and remain quiet.

After a few seconds, Alec says something to Rien. Rien kisses my cheek and sits on a chair next to my hospital bed. "I'll stay here..." he says to Alec.

Alec nods then leaves the room.

I glance quickly at Rien before I close my eyes and fall asleep.

---------

When I woke up in the morning, I saw Rien slumped in his chair asleep and Alec was putting a box of doughnuts and two cups of hot chocolate onto the table.

I smile and say, "Hey..." Alec turns to me and says, "Oh hey, I thought you were sleeping..."

"Just woke up..." I glance around and see a vacant chair, "Why don't you take a seat?"

He shakes his head, "Rien would freak out if he saw me this early in the morning.." his lips twitch up a little, "Well..um I bought you guys drinks and some snacks." he says, pointing to the things on the table. "And I still have to finish my job. I'll check on you guys again later." he says shyly and leaves the room.

I smile then look at Rien, he starts to wake up slowly. He rubs his eyes and says "Hey..how are you?" he smiles.

"I'm doing great! How about you?"

"I'm great too." He looks at the clock then says, "I'm gonna go get us some breakfast." He begins to get up but I put a hand on his arm to stop him.

"you don't need to..." I gesture to the food and drinks on the table.

He looks at the table and raises an eyebrow, "Who got this?" he grins and grabs the two hot chocolate then hands me one.

I bite my lip, "Oh umm.. I already s-saw them here when I woke up.."

"Really? He or she must be a nice person." Rien nods and peeks through the box, "And oh it's your favorite snack." he says as he offers the doughnut box to me.

I take a doughnut out of the box with a smile and bite into it. After swallowing, I say, "Yeah... that person must be really nice."
