Chapter 7

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

~Luke's P.O.V.~

I hopped out of the shower and put on my black skinny jeans with the growing hole on the right knee. I also slipped on my purple tank top and put on my vans. I quiffed my hair and then texted Ashton telling him that I was on my way. Michael, Calum, Ashton, and I were all meeting up at Ashton's house to hang out. I grabbed my wallet with my license in it and headed to my blue Jeep Liberty. I hopped in and turned on my car which blasted to life with the song I Write Sins Not Tragedies.

As I was driving the rain started to pour. I slowed down because I could barely see. Out of the corner of my eye I saw two people walking, one in front, the other behind them. I pulled over to the side and rolled down my window to hear a familiar voice.

"Cam! Cam! Please no! Cam! I'm sorry!" I heard Monika sob out.

"There's nothing to be sorry for." Cameron said to her as he turned to face her. I rolled my window up and turned my car off. I ran to Monika as she fell to the ground.

Picking her up I asked her, "Oh my god Monika are you ok?" I was so worried about her.

I glared at Cameron with fury in my eye. "What the hell did you do to her?" I shouted at him.

"What did I do? I don't know ask your whore!" Cameron yelled at me.

I clenched my fists as I walked up to his face and said, "Don't you ever call her that." I saw the anger in Cameron's face. He turned and walked away

"Luke please stop." Monika sobbed out. I walked up to her and hugged her. I ran my hand through her hair, with my spare hand I started wiping the mascara and the rest of her makeup running down her face. I had never seen her like this.

I saw Cameron return when I was hugging Monika, but I didn't even acknowledge him. I heard him slam the door to his black Toyota Camry.

All of a sudden in slow motion I see a pair of headlights rushing towards me. I felt a huge push from my left coming from Monika as she screamed "Luke No!".

I saw her body fly up the hood of the car, her head clashing into the windshield and her body flying over the car. I lost my voice as I ran to Monika. "No! No! No! No!" I shouted as I picked Monika up, her eyes slowly blinking. She was going to be unconscious soon. "Shit!" I yelled as Cameron sped out of the driveway.

I ran up to Monika's house to see that her mom wasn't there. I ran to my car as I saw Monika close her eyes and not open them. "Shit! Shit! Shit!" I yelled as I opened my car door. I slipped Monika into the front passenger seat as I started buckling her up.

"God damn it!" I yelled when I lost the buckle due to me shaking. I grabbed it again and clicked it in.

I ran to the other side of the car and turned it on as I got situated in my seat I reached over my bloody purple shirt and buckled up. I started accelerating as fast as I could. I drove to the hospital dodging cars as I drove by them.

I heard my phone ringing. I picked it up and then dropped it accidentally. "Fuck!" I yelled as I grabbed it paying attention to the road. I answered without even checking the Caller I.D.

"Hello?" I shouted into the phone.

"Dude where the hell are you?" Ashton asked as I turned on the ramp signaling a mile away from the hospital.

"A mile away from the hospital." I answered trying to calm myself down.

"What the hell are you doing there?" Ashton once again asked curiously.

"I'm taking Monika there. I'll explain later!" I shouted into the phone as I hung up and pulled into the front entrance of the hospital. I shut my car off and ran to the other side. I pulled the unconscious Monika out of the car and locked it.

I ran threw the doors yelling, "Someone please help!" A whole bunch of doctors and nurses ran up and took her out of my arms and laid her down in a hospital bed and rolled her into a room. I ran after her.

A nurse pulled me to the side before I entered the room and had asked what had happened. I told her the whole story starting with me going to Ashton's and ending with me running through the building.

"Her ex boyfriend hit her with his car?" The nurse asked making sure that she had the story correct.

"Well he meant to hit me." I answered right away.

"Ok, thank you." She replied.

I walked in the room to see a pale Monika stripped out of her clothes, which are laying on the ground, and in a hospital gown. She had a tube running under her nose and an I.V. in her right arm. I grabbed her right hand and held it in mine.

As I was holding her hand, I pulled out my phone and called her mom. I told her the story, but she was out of town and was going to start driving back early in the morning.

I picked up her hand and brought it to my lips, I kissed her hand holding the kiss as I started to shake. I looked at Monika and how much she was in terrible condition, her head bleeding, face and body bruising. Leaning over, I touched her hair as my eyes went blurry. I started crying again.

The doctor knocked on the door and I dried my face as he walked in. He looked at me with a serious face, "The test results are back in." he said to me.

"And?" I asked with a hint of hope in my voice, hoping that it would be a quick and easy recovery.

"Well," he said as he walked up to me, "I hate to break it to you, but Monika might not make it out alive."
