~zach's pov.~

as soon as the words fell out of my mouth a miracle happened. i felt her hand squeeze mine as she softly made out, "i would love nothing more. i love you too."

the words made my heart race and the fact she was awake.

"guy! guys!" i said running out of the room. "she's awake!" i said smiling. i haven't smiled for awhile and it felt good.

the doctors rushed in the room to do tests to make sure she's stable.

"oh my gosh that bitch finally woke up!" lilly cheered hugging and kissing daniel.

"she rose from the dead." corbyn laughed.

"that's just creepy." jack said laughing.

we all went to see natalie once the doctors finished. we all laughed together and joked with her not to die again.

   "no promises." natalie said laughing. it warmed my heart to see her smile and laugh. i missed her.

mr. smith came shortly after helping mrs. smith into natalie's room, emily followed. the rest of us left leaving natalie alone with her family. god it was amazing to have her back.

i love this girl so much.

   a few hours later two policemen showed up. one man had blonde hair and was fairly tall. the second officer had brown hair and was shorter than his partner.

   "hello ma'am can we speak to mr. smith?" the policeman with blonde hair asked the lady as the front desk.

   "sure can. mr. smith please one to the front desk." she said.

   we all followed mr. smith up to the policemen to find out who hit natalie and her mom.

   "hello mr. smith." the man with brown hair said shaking mr. smiths hand.

   "um hello serif." mr. smith responded.

   "hello sir." the blonde officer said.

   "officer." mr. smith responded nodding his head.

   "this is regarding the case of the hit and run of your wife and daughter. does that sound correct?" the blonde one asked.

   "sure does." mr. smith said.

   "the young lady who hit your family goes by the name of julia druft. she is 16. she will be going to jail for 2 weeks and will be getting fined. along with that she will get her license suspended."

anger filled my body as i felt like i needed to punch something, anything. that little bitch hit them on purpose because i broke up with her. i hope she is happy now. god what did i see in her?

once i calmed down a little i decided to go pay julia a visit. she's still at her house because she still has a few more trials. her father is trying to pay to have her not go to jail.

i walk up to the door and knocked on it.

"oh hi babe." she said all innocent. "what are you doing here?"

"i want to ask you why the hell you hit natalie and her mom. was it because i broke up with you and your jealous little ego couldn't handle it?" i said blowing up in her face. i was so beyond pissed that she did this.

"well i hope you know i'm paying the consequences and i'm truly sorry for what i did." she said pouting.

"no time for fake tears julia. don't you ever come near me or my girlfriend ever again. you hear me? never!" i said storming off.

"bu--"

"there is no time for buts. you could have killed one of the only things i love. i honestly always liked natalie more than you. you were just a backup because she lived 2,000 miles away!" i yelled.

i know i was pretty harsh i just needed to get out all my anger. natalie didn't deserve what happened to her and to make matters worse it was all my fault. i should have fought for her instead of moving onto someone new when in the end natalie was the only one i loved.

i messed up. big time.

~natalie's pov.~

i was tired of this musty old hospital. i was tired of the food, i was tied of the cheap looking paintings, i was tired of being here, i was just tired of being in pain.

i wanted to go home and sleep in my bed with cozmo. i wanted to go cuddle him and lay next to zach in bed all day and watch netflix. i just wanted to go home and get away from this creepy place. just two more days, two more days.
