Hush

Save Me

Darkness was taking over Mitch's body. His body starting to feel numb as his emotions drowned away. He could faintly hear Kirstie yelling and crying, telling him to stay awake and not leave him. He tried to stay awake but his eyes wouldn't open, he was just too tired. His body couldn't take it anymore. All the sounds surrounding him were slowly fading away, the wind blowing, Kirstie's crying and the ambulance.... Wait the ambulance! Mitch tried opening his eyes, he needed to stay awake but he couldn't, he was too tired...

'Mitch come on... please.' He kept trying but all that surrounded him was darkness and quiet.

How long after was it? Mitch didn't know but he was sure he was still alive, he could think, talk to himself, feel things, hear things. Surely he wasn't... dead?

He needed to know.

Mitch tried opening his eyes, it didn't seem like anything was going to happen. he was about to give up when he heard a faint voice, a voice who he of whom he recognized... "Mitch please..." said the faint whisper.

Kirstie! He wasn't dead, but he wasn't exactly alive either... was he? Mitch was sure he was alive, but he had to wake up! There was so much more to do. So much more exploring, so much more fun, and he didn't even get to marry the person he loved yet... Mitch tried to open his eyes once more.

Was it working? He wasn't sure... instead of opening his eyes he tried to move his finger. Desperate he tried even harder but it wouldn't work. He needed to open his eyes.

Kirstie was holding one of Mitch's hands praying, crying, sobbing for him to wake up from the deep sleep he was currently in. "M-Mitch? Please... I need you to wake up for me."

"Please Mitchie... Scott's coming for you. He's leaving Texas to come for you." Kirstie kept trying to get Mitch awake. She wouldn't stop until he was awake he needed to wake up. There were so many reasons that needed him to be awake.

He needed to find the person that did this to him, he needed to at least say his last words to everyone, he needed to stay for Pentatonix and the tour they were going on soon, he needed to be there... for her, Avi, Kevin, Mike and Nel, her parents, their parents, the whole fandom. Most of the Pentaholic fandom would cry if Mitch, the one and only Mitch Grassi the countertenor from Pentatonix and a half of Superfruit had died.

He needed to be awake for so many people...

The room door opened and Avi and Kevin came bashing into the room, immediately running towards Mitch and Kirstie. Kirstie looked at them and stopped everything she was doing. She looked at their shocked faces and couldn't help but break down in tears.

Avi was now sitting on a chair next to Mitch holding his hand and Kirstie was in Kevin's arms crying, Kevin tried not to cry for Kirstie but he started crying when he had heard the words that Avi had said.

"Mitch... I'm sorry, we just fought yesterday and now this happens. I wonder if this happened because of my sins? You're gonna die because of... me then. If you die, the last words I have said to you would've been 'I don't care. Just leave.' and I don't want that to be the last words I say to you... If it is, I will regret everything I have done in my life. I'm sorry."

Avi rested his head near Mitch's body regretting the fact that they had fought yesterday. Kevin was still trying to calm Kirstie down even when there were tears in his own eyes.

"Kirstie, Mitch is gonna wake up. He isn't going to die Kirstie, please... Believe me. He's tougher than we think."

"Then why are you crying?" Tears were not falling from her face but they were forming under her eyes

"I.."

"See! Even you think he's going to d-die..." Kirstie cried but suddenly asked Kevin a question, "What if Scott doesn't get to see him while his heart his still beating? No... Poor Scott!" Kirstie was sobbing even more at the thought.

Mitch, was hearing everything. His body wouldn't let him do anything, he wanted to open his eyes and tell everyone everything that had happened, he wanted everyone to stop crying because they thought he was about to die when he was still alive still thinking, still feeling, still trying his best to wake up.

Why was his body refusing him to wake up?

He heard some goodbyes and the door open. He asumed that Avi and Kevin had left and would come back tomorrow when he was hopefully, awake so he could talk to them. All of them, and of course so he could talk to Scott...

He felt like he would just do anything to open his eyes again. Why wouldn't he let himself wake up? It didn't make any sense to him. How did fainting make him into this state? He didn't know the answer to any of those questions and wanted answers when he was awake. He needed an explanation and... revenge.

Heeey! It's Emily here. Yeah I'm sorry dark for a first chapter. I'll update tomorrow just because it won't make any sense yet. You'll catch on quickly though. Sorry this chapter was short, I didn't really have any ideas to fit in this chapter but I swear this book will get better! Just continue reading ;)

Can anyone make a better book cover? I don't really like this one. I'll give credit!
