Emma's POV
A guitar.
The memories flashed in my head, clouding my mind.
Tommy and I walked down the street, thirteen and stupid. "Should we go the the movies or something?" he questioned looking at me. "I don't care, why not!" I said smiling.
*One year later*
"Emma, do you know how truly amazing you are? You've been through so much, with all the shit about your brother and the people, but you're still here. I'm proud of you. So, so proud." Tommy said kissing my forehead.
*One Year Later*
"Let's go do something!" Tommy said fist pumping the air. I laughed. "Let's go to the mall, it's my day after your birthday present to you!" he spoke again. "Okay let's go." I said grabbing my coat. We walked down the streets, the mall came into view. It was just across the highway..
"I'll go first." He said starting to walk. He made it about halfway when it happened. "TOMMY STOP LOOK OUT!" I yelled running into the street. But I had been too late, he got hit. He was unconscious, I pulled out my phone and dialed 911 quickly. "911 what is your emergency?" the lady on the phone spoke. "Help, please, m-my friend, he just it hit by a car. Please hurry." I spoke not being able to keep in my tears. "We're by Lakeview Mall, please please get here." I said before hanging up. The ambulance came moments later, grabbing Tommy and speeding away quickly.
*Six Months Later*
I made my way towards the east wing, going to see Tommy. This became my daily routine. He had survived the accident, but was in a coma. It had been about 6 months but I saw him dally, held his hand, and played the guitar for him, even though I knew he couldn't hear me.
I walked into his room, E71813, to my absolute shock he was awake. His eyes were wide open. I ran over to him. I grabbed his hand. "T-Tommy." I said tears coming out of my eyes. "I love you so much." I said breathlessly. His heart rate started to diminish.
"Emma, never forget I love you." he said, grabbing my hand. His heart rate stopped and a long beep filled the room. No. No. No! Tommy! I couldn't even speak. Nurses and doctors rushed into the room, am threw me out. "NO NO NO" I screamed.
It had finally set in. My world was gone. The one person I cared about, the one who cared about me, was gone.
I went to visit his family, his mother welcomed me with a hug. He cheeks were tear stained, I knew she had heard. "Emma, I'm so so sorry." She said after we pulled apart from our hug. "Why are you apologizing? I should be apologizing, you just lost your son." I said, looking up into her big blue eyes, the ones he had inherited. "Yes, but you just lost your other half." she said hugging me once more.
The memories racked my brain. Suddenly I felt dizzy and my world went black.
