Chapter 4: Reunite Explain Surprise

WYATT'S POV

I've been in the hospital for eleven months and have been going through rehab, therapy, home schooling, and counseling for a little over two years. I don't see why they won't let me out of here. I wanna taste home cooked food again. I actually wanna go to school and have loads of homework. Yeah, that's how bad it is being stuck here for three years. Well, I was stuck in a hospital for almost a year because I was in a coma. The doctors thought it was a miracle for me to have woken up. And a bigger miracle for me to even be alive.

My entire family has seen me so far. A lot of my friends and teachers have come to see me, too. I just don't know why Rylan hasn't come to see me yet. Was she too scared to see me? Has she put herself into a hole? Did she think I was dead? Ugh, that'd be horrible. But it wouldn't surprise me. A couple of the nurses told me that there was a girl in the hospital room with me for a long time while I had lost my pulse. They had to drag her out of the room so they could stabilize me. But was that Rylan? Or was that someone else? I also remember kissing someone before I was knocked out. Could it have been Rylan? Oh I wish I had kissed Rylan. Does she even know how I feel about her? And does she feel the same way about me? Good God, I'm gonna kill a dozen cats with as much curiosity I have right now.

The main things I remembered about before what happened was Rylan and I studying for a big test coming up. For what subject, I don't remember. Then I remember glass breaking and everything going black. For the longest time, it was like that. Then there was searing pain all over my body. The only things I could hear were a girl's screams. She kept repeating to someone to stop what they were doing, most likely to stop hurting me. Then I heard the voices clearly.

"Stop it, Bradley! I know it's me you're after! Just let him go and I'll do anything you want-"

"I don't want what you have to offer right now! I want you to suffer. And I know getting to you won't change anything. So thus why I'm getting at your weak spot here." After this, I felt even more searing pain cut into my skin. It seemed like forever, before I was thrown to the ground, groaning in pain.

"Wyatt!" Rylan cried.

"I'm fine," I groaned back.

That's when I realized that Bradley had kidnapped both me and Rylan. Hurting me to get to her. Too bad I realized this as late as I did, because I probably could've put up a fight a long time ago and gotten us out of here.

But, instead, I blacked out again for a short time. And when I woke up again, I heard more screaming. And crying. I directed my eyes to what was happening, and saw something I never wanted to see.

Rylan's hands were tied to a pole in the corner of a room, Bradley hovering over her.

"Now I'll get what I want," Bradley growled lowly. At this, fury rose inside of me.

"Let her go, Bradley!" I groaned angrily.

"No!" Bradley bellowed back at me, "She's mine! Not yours! Mine!" That's when Bradley kissed Rylan. It absolutely pained me. But seeing her fight back, knowing she didn't want it, that's what relieved me the most.

Then he began to manhandle her.

"Let her go!" I screamed.

But he ignored me, taking a knife covered in blood and cutting off Rylan's clothes before being thrown to the side. The fury rose in me even more, seeing him treat her like this. I tried to get up, to fight, but I was just so weak.

Before I knew it, Rylan was exposed, Bradley attacking her. And after that, I went black again.

Then, the last thing I saw when I woke up, my eyes landed on Rylan once more. Her body was still exposed, blood, bruises, and bite marks all over her. I cried, knowing exactly  what he had done to her. The last thing I saw was her beautiful, crystal blue eyes staring down at me.
