The Mute Badass (continued)

15: Oh My God

/Aura's POV/

"Hello?" I said.

Oh My God. I said? I said that! As in I spoke. I can't believe it. I've tried to speak before but I could never physically do it! Oh My God.

"Oh. My. God." I hear a husky voice on my left say. I turned my head toward the noise but yelped in pain when I did.

"What the fück ck!" I yelled from all the pain. Oh My God. I talked again! Or yelled, but still!

"Oh My God! You talked! You really did! Twice! This is amazing, I'm so happy for you." It was Alec. Jumping up and running around my.... hospital bed? Right, right. I got hit by a car. "Oh, wait. I have really, really bad news that you are not going to be okay with." He added slowing down and sitting back down.

I was scared. Honestly, I was. I mean, I could have cancer, be paralyzed, never walk again. The possibilities are endless. But I gestured for him to continue talking about whatever the bad news could be.

"Well, you see, while you were in surgery, everyone thought you weren't going to make it. You were next to death and the chances of you making it through the surgery out of a coma would be a miracle, is a miracle. So um, when Reece heard about all that he.... um-uh he- Oh my god this a lot harder than I thought."

I rolled my eyes and looked at him awaiting his answer. I don't know why I'm not speaking again. I think it's just that I'm scared to know what's going to come out of his mouth. I mean it could be anything, once again, possibilities are endless.

"He shot himself Aura." He spat out quickly awaiting my reaction.

"No." I whispered shaking my head after a moment of letting that sink in. That was all I could say. It can't be true, it has to be some sick joke. Reece wouldn't do this to me, he CAN'T do this to me. The only person I've ever trusted, just gone.

"I know, I was just as surprised as you are and honestly I don't even know how react. There is just so much crap going on around me."

"Get out." I choked through unshed tears. I needed to be alone and Alec wasn't helping that.

"But-" He tried to intervene.

"Go! I don't want you here." I told him. I might regret it later but right now I don't care.

He got up and walked slowly out of the room probably hoping I'd change my mind. Just as he slammed the door shut the first tear fell. I tried to wipe it away as if it never happened but then the next fell and soon I was sobbing with an ocean falling from my eyes. So much has happened in so little time and I can't handle all of this. Someone shot them self because of me, and not just any someone, my best friend. Plus my entire body aches from the crash and surgery and shît.

I just don't understand. Why me? All the horrible things that can happen in the world just have to happen to me. First I almost die, then Reece is an idiot, and now I just pushed away the only person that looks at me without seeing a murderer. I've royally screwed myself over all because I tried to be normal and go to the mall. I wish I could just be like everyone else. No cares, no worries, parents that are alive and love you. My life is too complicated.

I wiped my face with my hands to rid it from all my tears and pressed the nurse button.

/Authors note/

So how did you like it? Let me know in the comments. And I do know that not a lot happened in this chapter but she did just speak so....I don't think I'll have her keep talking though because the name of the book is the MUTE badass. Whatever.
