I Love You... With 1/3 of my Heart

Well That Wasn't EXpected

Recap:

All of a sudden my phone rang. It was Aiden.

"Hey." I said softly.

"Alex, I'm so sorry." he replied, sobbing.

"What happened? Are you okay?" I asked starting to get worried.

"Lewis was in a car accident he's in critical condition down at the hospital."

New Chapter:

With those words my heart shattered. I ran to my truck, it's an old beat up chevy that I bought with my own money I mean my father could've bought me a really nice car to keep up with his image but I refused. After the ignition was on I sped to the hospital, I completely ignored the speed limit. Luckily, no cops were on the road at the time and honestly I would have ignored them if they had been. Oh shit, I forgot to explain things to Hannah. She's never seen me that panicked so she's probably freaking out too; and when she freaks out she's dangerous. Dammit I'll just call her when I find out what happened.

I finally got to the hospital and ran straight to the ICU not giving a damn if I looked like a nutcase. I headed to the reception desk and didn't care if I was being polite or not shoved the people in line out of my way. When I got to the window I was in hysterics.

"LEWIS JOHNSON!" I practically shouted.

"He's not allowed visitors at the moment. Take a seat." the plump woman with the round glasses said after she was finished ruffling through papers.

"Okay." I mumbled I was in a daze now. Completely numb.

I sat down in one of the crappy plastic yellow chairs and started thinking. Thinking about how I was about to tell him that we needed a break. Thinking about how my life would be without him. Thinking about-

My thoughts were cut off by two of my favorite people running through the door.

"Alex, the hospital called me and then I called you. How the hell did you get her before us?" Chris asked.

"I sped." I stated simply.

"Well how is he?" Aiden asked completely concerned this is one of his best friends for goodness sakes.

"I don't know the lady didn't tell me anything." I was still under a spell. I was completely dazed my words were barely above a whisper. "What if he dies?" I ask. That's when I finally allow myself to cry.

I hear the chair next to me groan as someone sits down. It's Aiden.

"Alex its going to be okay we're going to make it through this. Together." he says pulling me into his arms and rubbing my back. "Sweetie it's okay just let it all out." he soothes.

I was about to say more when a doctor stepped into the waiting area.

"Are you here for Lewis Johnson?" he said stepping towards us.

We all nodded.

"I'm so sorry but he's in a very deep coma and we have no idea when or if he will come out of it at this point. His brain could have suffered a lot of trauma because of the impact." The doctor said solemnly.

"But is he going to make it?" Chris asked hesitantly.

"There is a very high chance of survival. But only time can tell for any long lasting injuries." he replies. "You can go seem him if you like." he adds.

"Let's go." Aiden said.

"Okay." I agreed.

We walked into the hospital room and it was deathly quiet, a terrible analogy at a time like this. Then I saw him. He was on the hospital bed looking completely broken. That's the only word that could describe it. His face was unnaturally pale, he had a black eye, a collar thing, both his arms were in casts and so was his left foot. He was completely out of it, nothing looked like it would wake him. I'd the machine wasn't monitoring his heart beats I would've believed he was dead. When I finished taking the sight in front of me in, I started crying again.

"Shhh, Alex, it's okay. Calm down he's gonna be okay. Don't worry." Aiden said trying to comfort me. It didn't help that his voice was shaking.

"He could've died!" I say in between sniffles.

"It's okay he's gonna be okay, I promise." He said

And that's the second that I realized who I belonged with. Now let's fix this mess.

~1 month later~

I've been visiting Lewis everyday after school for the past month. Aiden visits him with me, he feels guilty because he was chasing Lewis in his car and he saw Lewis get in the car crash. Chris refuses to visit because he feels really too guilty. The girls at my school keep on giving me sad looks, that's a first. It's like they pity me and they think I'm just waiting by the bed of someone who is a hopeless cause. Anyways, he's been making progress. He's lost the casts and his black eye is gone. Now he just looks like he's sleeping. Right now I'm in his room reading a book when all of a sudden I hear something.

"Andrea...mmmmm.....yeah....ahhhh....I love you....." Lewis mumbled.

Hey at least he's talking. Not that it will do him any good when he wakes up.
