This is great. Just wonderfull.
"I see you have already met." Bonnie looked at both of us. "Met?!" Julian rushed to the other side of Bonni's bed and slammed the flowers against the stool. "This psycho ruined my freaking nose." he gestured to me screaming. "Aw, scared girls might not like you as much, Don Juan!" I acted crying.
"You're unbelievable." he shook his head and exhaled. "What are you doing here anyway?" he asked. "What do you care?" I scoffed folding my arms. "I just literally asked you a question and you can't answer like a normal human being." he said in a matter-of-fact kind of way. "Well, maybe I'm not normal." I said lifting both my eyebrows. "Ya think?" he smiled sarcastically.
"Wow, you guys really can't not stand each other!" Bonnie started laughing making her body bounce up and down.
"No!" both me and Julian said at the same time.
Bonnie couldn't stop laughing.
The door slid open to reveal a tall blonde with green eyes wearing a white coat and a pair of black heels. "Charlie, I need you for a second." Alison demanded looking worried. "Whats's wrong?" I asked walking towards her. "It's Brad and Caroline." she said after a long gulp.
She officially got me worried. "What happened?" I asked feeling fear take over my body. She gestured for me to follow her.
"Let's just go."
I looked back at Bonnie and Julian for the last time and started towards the door. "Wait for me." said Julain after giving Bonnie a small kiss. He rushed to catch up to me and we both followed Alison to the main entrance.
"What's going on?" I asked again. "They had an accident just at the border of the town. We're taking them in now." she explained as we saw two rolling-beds being pushed by a bunch of people. The door opened and I was able to see Caroline all bloody and unconscious. "Carre?" my voice was barely heard. As the sight of her half dead body was leaving my sight, I see Brad in the same condition. But at least he was awake.
"Caroline?" he screamed trying to get up but the medics calmed him down. I see Julian rushing to catch up to them. With this, I do the same and we follow them until they pass another door. Alison stopped us.
"They'll be fine. I promise." Alison hugged my face giving me a reassuring look. "Charlie?" she called my name several times until I finally blink and actually feel her hands.
"They are going to be okay." she said again then looked at Julian.
"Just stay calm." she said before she left and got lost to the other side of the door.
I felt as if my stomach was twirling upside down. Without a second thought, I rushed to the nearest bathroom and puked.
What just happened?
My two best friends just had an accident and I don't even know if they'll survive.
I washed my hands as I tried to remember how to breathe. My hands moved to my hair and I bursted out crying. I leaned against a wall then slowly, my body slid to the ground and I hugged my knees.
I cried and cried rocking forth and back.
Someone slammed the door open. I forced my head to look up only to see Julian looking dreadfully pale and unaware of my presence. He closed the door behind him and leaned his forehead against the door. After a second he punched the door with all his might and screamed "FUCK!"
That's when he saw me. We didn't say a word to each other. After a few heavy breaths, he sat next to me. Maybe he meant it or maybe he didn't but I was very greateful when he put his hand around me. Our heads were tucked together. I couldn't stop my tears while he did his best not to let even one out.
