*Say something I'm giving up on you! Lols. Now back to the story!
--
I was sitting in a chair tapping my foot angrily and my head in my hands. Say something Sasha, I kept silently praying.
The shock of the bullet was still in her arm, and when she tried to use it it caused a reaction that made her collapse. The doctors called it "a normal reaction to a gun shot."
I don't think so.
I'm not sure if she's ever waking up again...
-----
" Its okay James, she'll wake up again." Said her mom sympathetically.
"Thanks," I muttered a couple seconds later. I had to lie to her parents and tell her I was one of her friends and that my name was James. It was an iffy back story and I'm still getting used to my "name".
"Huuuh!" I heard a shaky gasp come from the stretcher.
"She's awake!" I practically shrieked as I ran to the side of the hospital bed.
"Sasha! Say something!" I pleaded holding her shoulder.
"Something," she muttered with her eyes closed.
I chuckled at her attempt to have a smart mouth right now.
"Shhh... Baby it's okay. Tomorrow's a new day," her mom sang quietly as tears filled her eyes. I realized how hard this must have been on her and a flash wave of guilt hit my.
With my other arm I reached out and grabbed her hand.
"It'll be okay," I whispered to her.
She pulled her hands to her face and wiped her tears as she said," Thank you."
"For what?" I asked confused.
"For staying with my baby girl."
"It's not a problem, really." I reassured her.
"No really," her mom said."She's just been through so much lately." And here comes more guilt. "It'll be good for her to wake up and have a true friend by her side."
"Wait, what about Ashlyn? Dot they always buddy around?" I asked trying to keep my role.
Her mom cleared her throat and said," She was one of the people who kidnapped Sasha."
Her eyes started tearing up and I said," Oh I'm so sorry."
"It's fine," she said. "It's been harder on Sasha. They've been friends for the longest time. Everything used to be so normal." She sighed and smiled sadly.
"It's all different now," I muttered.
"Yeah," she agreed. "Anyways, I should probably get to work if I what to be able to pay for these hospital bills." She grabbed her purse and started out the door.
"Bye," I said waving politely.
"It was nice talking to you James." She said as she quietly closed the door.
I took Sasha's hand and sighed.
"So you gonna talk now?" I asked knowing Sasha had been awake the whole time.
Her eyes flashed open and she said," Yeah. I'll talk, James."
I chuckled at my alias and smiled.
"You know you're mom was really worried about." I said my voice turning serious.
"I know," she admitted quietly as she twiddled her thumbs.
"How long until you rat me out?" I asked.
"I don't know," she said staring off into the flower vase some one had left her.
I smiled and took her hand,"Well, if I were you. I'd take your time."
