Annabelle squatted down next to him and leant out to the side to see what they looked like, there were 3 people, 2 boys and a girl, the two boys were tall and had black matching hair that was shaved on one side and flopped onto the other side, they were stood either side of a girl, she had blonde hair with blue and black streaks flowing through her hair, she looked like she had a metal object in her hand. Annabelle was staring right at them when she was pulled back and landed on her butt
"come on!" Callum shouted within a whisper as he helped her up and ran behind the house and climbed over the gate, helping Annabelle over and holding her glasses as she jumped off
Annabelle took her glasses back and swung her hair back so that it brushed against her waist they both carried on running until they got to a road and realised that they were not being followed.
Callum looked at Annabelle and touched her face
"I didn't mean to hit you, I was angry that it was my fault it had gotten to this"
Annabelle laughed and looked at him right in the eye, went on her tip toes and leant in she pecked him on the lips and stood back flat on her feet
"I love you" Callum said as he pressed the button for the traffic lights and smiled at Annabelle
Annabelle went to walk across the road assuming that the traffic lights had changed since a car hadn't passed in about 8 seconds and as she did a taxi came through the lights and knocked Annabelle out
Callum looked at her and didn't know what to do he looked at her on the floor as the taxi screeched to as stop the man ran out and was already on the phone to an ambulance as the driver stood on the pavement another car coming the other way hit into the taxi and the driver dropped the phone and ran over to his car and helped open the car door for the other person
Callum ran over to Annabelle and sat on the floor next to her, he grabbed her hand and felt for her pulse, it was weak but it was there
He pulled her hand to his mouth "It's okay, you're going to be fine, fine, fine... you will be okay"
a tear rolled town his face the taxi driver started screaming to move and Callum didn't listen her squeezed his hand but all of a sudden the car exploded and the blow hit them both, Callum sat up
"Annabelle!" he saw her clothes on fire he turned his head to the taxi driver who was on the floor next to the other woman who he had helped out of the car
all of a sudden Callum's vision went blurry and he heard the sirens of an ambulance in the distance and he let his head drop to the floor
-----
when Callum woke up he had an oxygen mask on and something that was attached to his index finger, he was laying next to a machine that would occasionally beep to the beat of his heart
when Annabelle woke up there was a nurse in front of her looking at a piece of paper, Annabelle tried to talk but no words would come out so she just sat up
"oh hello there Annabelle, how are you feeling?"
the nurse said as he put the paper down and walked towards her
Annabelle rubbed her head, still not being able to speak. she opened her mouth and then words didn't come out
"We have called your mum, she said she would be about an hour"
Annabelle held her throat and squeaked out "what happened"
"you were hit by a taxi, scans show that you may have a fatal brain injury and that you broke your arm and fractured your knee, the car then exploded, you have burnt your arm which is why it is in that cast, you cannot feel the injuries now because you are on a hell of drugs."
Annabelle laid down and swallowed heavily
"brain damage?"
"yes, there appears to be a slight blow on the left side of your brain, nothing that theatre can't fix, but it will have long term effects like forgetfulness and this can even result in death, I hate to be the one who tells you this, but we need to get you into theatre ASAP"
Annabelle sank down into her pillow when she came to the sudden realisation that CAllum was with her
"did a boy come in with me"
"yes his name is Callum"
"is he okay?"
"he has third degree burns down his left side, stopping at the neck, but he will be fine."
"can I see him" Annabelle asked while sitting up again
"sure, let me get you a wheel chair darling" the man said before walking through the double doors and taking his had off
