Shhhhhh (Zalfie Fanfiction)

Please wake up - 22

Zoe's pov

Quickly I took the straw and shoved it into the hole I had made.  The blood was still coming. I grabbed all the toilet paper I could find and stuffed it around joes wound trying to stop the bleeding. I was no surgeon but I would have to do. I prayed for the moment of relief. I waited, and waited. It had been more time than I expected. Why was he not waking up? Had I killed him?

The sound to Zoe's room had cut off. I was sitting on my bed staring into space for what felt like years. I was hungry and thirsty. I knew I could walk over to the tap and get water but I didn't want to move. There was no point. No point to life anymore. If we ever get out of this hotel room it won't be today, and we will still have the memory, plus jack will still be furious at us and Louise will be cut from our life. Nothing will ever return the same way it used to be.

Jack and I sit on our beds silently, I was staring down the wall as if I were trying to drill a hole in the wall with my eyes. All we could hear was the air, blowing from the vent. It was smooth and consistent. It kept flowing. I kept listening. On and on and on and on.

*click* I woke up, shooting upright. I looked over at jack. He had fallen asleep too. What time was it? I look over at the tiny window, at the edge of the room. Sunset. It must be around 7. Why had I woken up in the first place? I look around for anything strange. I open my mouth to yawn, my mouth was so dry. I walk into the toilet to take a drink. I'm spooning the water into my mouth as I hear it again. *click* Where was that coming from? I drop the water and listen for it as I search the room. I look at the door to see if Louise had unlocked it. I shake the handle in hope, and walk away with dismay. Frantically clearing the cupboards I hear the click again. *click* I think it was coming from the vent. I sent up to the vent and listened. The air whooshing had stopped. It was just the click. I waited. Until it came again. *click* it was the vent! I tried to look through the vent to see what was going on. It was pitch black. I went to get my phone and turn on the flash light. 1%. I can't use up my last 1%. *click* it clicked again, then it was followed by a continuous *creeaakkkk* jack had woken up by this sound.

"What are you doing?" He moaned grumpily.

"Shhhhhhhhh!!" I shushed him.

He waddled over here. There was a loud *THUNK* then we could hear someone crying.

"Please wake up, please wake up, please wake up." The voice cried.

"Hello!" I called.

The crying continued. We listened for a while.

"What are we doing?????" Jack grumped.

"Just shhhhh!" I said trying to concentrate. I recognized that cry.

"Zoe?" I called through the vent.

The crying paused.
