The door swung open and Elliot entered the small cubical room. He stood , unsure of what to do, as his back faced the hospital bed. His heart was beating at a pace which he didn't think was possible. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead. The rush of adrenaline made him want to throw up.
He took slow steps to the bed where Noelle was lying unconscious. His Noelle.
He opened his eyes to witness a the face of an angel in front of him. The face of pure innocence and sheer beauty. Every inch of her face appeared to be a masterpiece from heaven.
But as he took in the features of the girl in front of him, he couldn't ignore the feeling of familiarity sprout in his heart. It felt like he had seen that face somewhere, sometime before.
Elliot sat on the small three legged chair beside the bed and got a hold of her hands tentatively. His hands were small in his. They looked fragile like a glass piece. But her touch was soft.
He couldn't take his eyes off her. The girl he had always wanted to meet was there in front of him but he felt so helpless.
