You & Me Against The World

Chapter 12

(Amy's POV)

I woke up, my head throbbing. I opened my eyes for just a quick second before the light forced them shut again.

"She's awake!" I hear cries of joy, with a familiar voice but I can't make out whose voice it was.

I manage to turn my head, squint my eyes open and I see a boy holding my hand. He had big brown eyes and was wearing a batman beanie, a pink tshirt, blue jeans and red converse, he looked really familiar but I couldn't exactly make out who it was as my vision wasn't particularly perfect at the moment. I turned towards the boy and open my eyes wide, my mouth dropped.

"Hello baby! Thank goodness you're awake, I was so worried about you!" The boy says, almost crying.

The familiar boy went from pure nothingness, to then a figure and then to the boy I love. Jc.

I managed a smile but only for a split second before I felt Jc's lips smack against mine. It felt so good to feel his lips against mine again.

"JC!!" I shout loudly, with a massive smile across my face, "what happened?"

Jc looks towards the nurse, his smile quickly changing to a frown.

"Well?" I say again, waiting for an answer.

"I... I erm..." He stops, the whole room goes silent. He runs out of the room crying.

"Jc?!" I exclaim, confused. I lift my whole body up to get out of the bed and chase after him, but the strange objects stuck to my body pull me back down.

I look out of the window and see that the nurse is calming Jc down, wiping the tears from his face with a tissue. A feel of jealously quickly shoots through my entire body, I don't know why I feel so jealous, she's only trying to calm him down... But why?

(Jc's POV)

It's been 2 days since I last saw her, I wish I never walked out of her house now, I wish I could of protected her, and be the good boyfriend I always intended to be. I never want her to get hurt, especially not now but not ever.

I've been sitting beside her bed, gripping on to her hand for the past 12 hours now and still no luck. Her parents sit on the other side of her, looking devastated and worried, not loosing sight of her. Suddenly, a bit of luck comes. Halleujah.

"She's awake!" I shout, crying tears of joy. Thank goodness. I grip her hand even tighter.

She slowly moves her head towards my face, and squints her eyes open, but as she opens her eyes even more, the sharpness of the blue tone in them shone right into my eyes. Her eyes were now wide open and her mouth dropped.

"Hello baby! Thank goodness you're awake, I was so worried about you!" I say happily. She manages a smile and my head drifts closer to hers. I press my lips upon hers, it felt so good to kiss her again.

"JC!!!" She shouts loudly, looking happier than ever. "What happened?"

My smile suddenly changes to a frown, I can't tell her not now. I just stay silent for a moment, thinking of what to say.

"Well?" She hesitates for an answer. Oh no.

"I... I erm..." I can't say it, no.

The room goes all silent and I just can't face the tense atmosphere anymore. I tense up, put my face into my palms and run out of the room for an escape.

"Jc?!" I hear her muffled voice in the distance. I don't turn around to look at her, I just keep on running.

I hear footsteps coming towards me, I turn around and i see the nurse. She takes a tissue from her pocket and wipes the tears away from my face.

"I understand that you and Amy's family must be feeling so devastated right now and I'm so sorry." I hear her say with a sigh, I don't reply, mainly because I don't know what to say, I try to hold the tears inside of me but they just come streaming out. She puts her right arm around me and comforts me.

"Just stay positive okay? We have no information from the tests yet, as soon as we get the results back i will let you and her family know as soon as possible, okay?"

"She'll be okay though, won't she?" I say with a sniff, wiping my nose with a tissue.

"We'll do everything we can, Justin. I promise."
