//Scarlet//

I was surrounded by darkness, slow beeping noises and talking people. My body felt heavy and sore, I couldn't move. No matter how hard I tried to move or open my eyes, it was impossible. The voices were murmurs, I couldn't hear them correctly, but there were some laughs thrown in there too. It was just like when I was back at Luke's cabin, being touched unwillingly, but I couldn't even begin to describe what I went through and seen after that. It was like having two souls, mine being too submissive whilst the other one controlled me mentally and physically. There was a huge thumping pain at the side of my head where Luke had hit me. I remember seeing the look on his face once he realized what he had done. It was heartbreaking watching a poor innocent boy do things he has no say or do in.

The voices I heard grew louder, I started to recognized them. A familiar voice who I know as Daniel, meaning he's woken up from his coma. And that high feminine voice, Tina {A/N bitch..} but there was a deeper and older voice I didn't know.

//Daniel//

"Its such a tragedy about your accident, Mr Sahyoune." Scarlet's doctor told me.

I chuckled, "I know, but hey! I'm lucky to be alive." a smile broke out on my face as Tina and the doctor smiled along and agreed with me.

Waking up from my coma six days ago was probably one of the best days of my life. But as everyone knows, not everyone wakes up from a coma all spic and span. I've been paralyzed from the waist down. Which is a bitch because I can't do certain things (if you know what I mean). But the doctors say that the nerves might reappear in the future {a/n i know nerves don't just come back so don't get all biological on me bc i hate that, you know i do} but they aren't 100% sure yet. I hope it does though.

"When do you reckon Scarlet will wake up then?" Tina asked with teary eyes, biting away at her thumb nail. I don't even know this woman and she's acting like Scarlet's mum.

"She's been out for nearly two days, but she shouldn't fall into a coma because it wasn't that bad of a hit."

"But it made a huge gash in her head?" I quizzed, raising an eyebrow at him.

"Looks worse than it actually is." he said before walking out the room.

I sighed frustratedly and sat down on a chair next to Scar's bed, taking her small weak hand in mine. Wasn't that long ago that we were in opposite positions. Tina sat in the chair next to me, I turned to face her. "Who even are you? Not in a mean way but.. Scarlet never mentioned you."

She giggled, removing a piece of hair from her eyes. "I'm the receptionist at Riversfield. Scarlet and I was close. But recently I.. I kind of freaked out on her, I blamed James' death on her, I just didn't-"

"Wait what?" I exclaimed, my jaw dropping in shock. "James.. is dead?" my voice came out in a whisper.

Tina looked confused, "Yes.. didn't you know?" her head tilted.

"Hmm.. let me see what I must of been doing that day. Oh yeah, I was lying in a hospital bed in a fucking coma!" I yelled. "Wow, for a receptionist, you aren't that smart." I scoffed, turning my attention to Scarlet then back at Tina, who looked kind of scared. "Sorry." I sighed. "Carry on."

She cleared her throat before speaking again. "-anyway, I didn't want to believe it. Me and James were so close, he was like a son to me, which is funny because I already have three, Andrew, Michael-"

"This isn't Piers Morgan's life stories, just get on with it!" {a/n for those who don't know about that show, it's a british thing (i think) and it's that dude from the one direction seven hour live cast thing, he has a show where celebs come on and talk about their life stories. i know daniel won't know what that show is but i thought it was a funny reference..}
