coming back? Harvey mills

Then and there

I woke up with a jolt. My heart raced. As I looked around I didn't recognize my surroundings. "Hello?" I heard. I spun my head around to see a younger lady in a white outfit. "H-hello?" I asked. "Wh-where am I?" I said. "You're in the hospital" she replied. "Now, take it easy. I need to check vitals" she said. I layed back, breathing heavily. "Why am I here?" I asked as she checked my pulse. "Well, this is not exactly easy to explain but you... died" she hesitated. Died? I started breathing heavier and I felt dizzy. "How did I die?" I sniffled, wanting to cry. "You bled out I think, I have no idea. Your past nurses are gone" she said. Gone? "What year is it?" I asked. "2027" she replied. 2027!?! Last I knew it was 2017. "Can I go to the bathroom?" I asked. She nodded.
------------------
I stared at my reflection, my skin was pale mixed with purple in some spots. I was skinny, very skinny and I was definitely older. I was so overwhelmed by everything that was happening. Suddenly I remembered everything! I ran back into my room and grabbed the nurse by the shoulders. "Where's Harvey?" I shouted. "I-I don't know" she replied. "A-and Charlotte..." I choked. She looked at my sympathetically "I'm sorry" she replied. A tear fell on my cheek.
----------------
They let me go and I was left to fend for myself. I decided to go where I knew I'd be known, my mother's house.
I stood at the front door, nervous to walk in, finally I did. "Who is it?" I heard. My mother's sweet voice made me feel warm and welcome. Suddenly I saw her step out of the kitchen wiping her hands on a towel, still looking down. "Uh" I quietly said. She glanced up and froze. "Dove?" She asked. Hearing her say my name made me want to break down. "Mom" I beamed. She ran to me and hugged me. "My sweet girl" she sighed. "Mom. What happened to me" I asked, pulling away. "You died honey. You bled out and they had to pull the plug. After, you were preserved in the morgue and they decided to try more. They recently did a blood transfusion and within hours, you responded. You woke up!" She said on the verge of tears. I put my hand on her shoulder. "Where's Harvey" I asked. She sighed and looked down. "Harvey was in a car accident a year ago. He suffered memory loss, the only thing he remembered was his family me and Charlotte. He doesn't remember you" she explained. My heart broke. Right then and there, I cried. "Don't cry" she begged, hugging me. "Grandma?" I heard. I turned around and saw a young girl, she was beautiful. "Oh dear. Hi Charlotte!" She smiled. Charlotte! I covered my mouth. "Where your father?" she asked. "Grabbing my bags" Charlotte replied. "Hi my name is Charlotte" she said to me with a smile, how respectful. "Hello Charlotte, my name is dove" I replied. "Lovely name. That was my mother's name" she said seeming slightly hurt. I gave a slight smile. "How old are you Charlotte?" I asked. "13. 14 in a week" she proudly replied. Wow 13? I heard the door shut and I looked up to see Harvey. "Oh hello" he smiled.

Harvey's POV:
I walked inside to give Charlotte her bags. I saw a beautiful girl sitting down with Mrs. Martin. "Oh hello" I said with a smile. She looked sad. "Are you alright" I asked, noticing that she hadn't said hello. "Oh yes, I'm fine. Hello, my name is dove" she replied. Dove? That name is beautiful, sounds familiar but its rare. "Hi my name is Harvey" I said.

Doves POV:
"Uh so Mrs Martin I was thinking that maybe Charlotte could stay with you for maybe a week or two" Harvey asked. "Of course. I hope you don't mind that dove will be here too" she replied. "Of course not. That's fine" he smiled.           
Once he left I decided to watch prison break. As I switched from episode 27 to episode 28, I heard shuffling behind me so I turned around. "Oh hey mom. You scared me" I laughed. "Haha sorry kiddo" she replied, sitting down next to me.

Charlotte's POV:
I sat on grandmas spare bed after putting my clothes away. Sighing, I pulled out a box of things that my mother had left for me when she passed away. I pulled out my moms old journal or diary, whatever it's called and turned to a random page. It read:  Well, today I found out that I am pregnant. I'll tell you what, I couldn't be happier. Being with Harvey is all I've ever wanted and now I get to spend the rest of my life with him. I'm not sure about names yet but I'm sure I'll think of something. Harvey had always suggested Charlotte for a girl, I like that name a lot. Xx- Dove
I tried to keep from crying as tears lined my eyes. Then, I turned to a different page.. the very last page that she had written in. The date was 8/19/17, the day before she passed away. It read:  I've been waiting so long for my baby to arrive. I'm home alone today because Harvey is at work. I think I'll do a project maybe. I feel like I need to write a message to my child so that maybe one day they can find this. I guess I'll start a fresh page tomorrow and address it to my future child. Well that's all for today.
I was so upset that she hadn't got to the letter. She didn't know that any of this was coming her way. Before I knew it, I was crying. I'd never met her but I was so sad anyways. "Charlotte?" I heard. I jumped a little and turned around. "Oh hello dove" I smiled, shoving the first back in its box. "Can I talk to you?" She asked. I nodded.
