Miracle

(15) I got you

I ran down the steps and grabbed my phone out of my bag and dialed 911.

My body was still shaking and I could barely hold the phone in my own two hands.

Six hits.

I looked towards the steps and began jumping up and down.

As soon as someone picked up I freaked. My crying was uncontrollable at this moment.

"Please help up" I cried into the phone.

The sound of the back door open made me freeze.

Seven hits.

I looked through the kitchen stuck in my spot my eyes locked with his. The guy who was going to ruin me in point five seconds.

The sight of the silver piece in his hand made me want to scream but nothing came out. I wanted to run, but my feet wouldn't move.

I wanted to stop him but I couldn't.

Eight hits.

He pointed this object at me and I closed my eyes. The sound itself made me fall to the floor. My hands went from the phone to where I had just been hit.

"Help me!" I cried out. Arching my back in pain I gripped my stomach.

"Please" I whispered.

Nine hits.

I reached for the phone and pulled it close to me.

"Please help me" I whispered into the phone. The women on the other line asked me multiple questions but I couldn't answer. Nothing would leave my mouth.

Ten hits.

"Miss what is your name?" She asked repeatedly.

I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out. I opened my eyes and looked around, the guy who had shot me ran as soon as he realized what he had just done.

The tears kept going as I ached in pain. I started to lose consciousness and I needed someone to tell this lady to get fucking help here.

I closed my eyes and screamed out bloody murder lying back down on my back completely.

When I opened them again there he stood, the man that saved my life.

"Please" I wheezed out. I began to cough and realized I was coughing up my own blood.

"Please" I begged again gripping onto him.

He placed his hand on my wooded area and pushed down putting pressure on it so the bleeding would slow down. "I got you babe. Just hold on for me. Alright?"

His calm voice made me rest back for a little bit. My next life saver grabbed the phone and worked her magic to get help.

"I'm gonna die" I squeezed Aaron's arm in my pale hand. My body was beginning to feel weak.

I'm gonna die.

"No you aren't. I got you. You hear me Miracle? I got you."

I looked up at him with weak eyes, he leaned down and kissed my sweaty forehead, "I got you"

And that's the last thing I remember.

I could hear everything. Every single thing that was going on around me. But, I couldn't move or talk.

"She could wake up in hours, maybe days, weeks, months, or maybe even years. Nobody knows for sure. Until then we will make sure and keep her stable" this girl was the nurse. I remember Aaron asking if she was the nurse and I remember her voice.

"So she may never wake up? Is that what you're talking me?" And that right there was Kinsey.

"Kinsey, it can take time. We just need to stay strong for her. Even though that's pretty much impossible, we need to try" and that was Aaron.

My life saver.

Aaron's new nickname was life saver. I've decided on that on the way to the hospital. The sound is still in my head, my family crying and freaking out. My boyfriend bawling his eyes out telling me to stay with him.

What am I doing?

I need to be with him. I need to fight for what I have. I need to fight for my family and everyone who I love.

I need to fight for my brothers and my beautiful sister. I need to fight for the man who saved my life. I need to fight so that I can get the guy who tried to kill me.

I need to fight.

I felt someone lay there on my leg and I just wanted to reach down and hold it. I wanted to jump up and tell them it will all be okay.

"Hey sissy. I just wanted to tell you I love you"

Ayden.

My little boy is scared to touch me. He's scared to grab my hand. I tried to speak back to him, but I felt as if a brick was lying on my lungs and I couldn't breath.

Seconds later I hear the nurse yelling for a doctor. It hurt to even try to breath anymore. I wanted to give up.

"Please help her" is what was stuck in my head as I thought about giving up.

I couldn't give up yet. Not today, not now.

The sound of Ayden sniffling and telling me he loved me told me u better not give up or I was completely worthless.

I can't give up.
