The Way

26. It was only just a dream

Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. I kept telling myself while I was just sitting in darkness. 

What did he mean I’m dreaming. 

Maybe a nap will help. 

“Hey! She’s waking up! Nurse! Nurse!” I heard yelling and I was slightly opening my eyes. I could see people but couldn’t tell who they were. 

“What?” I mumbled.

“She’s awake?!” I heard a different voice say.

“Niall?” I mumbled again.

“Niall? As in Niall Horan?” I heard a girl voice. Valerie maybe.

“Are the babies okay?” I asked, still haven't opened my eyes.

“What babies?” Someone asked.

 Does that mean the babies died? No. Please for fuck sakes no. 

I opened my eyes and saw Frankie first. He’s dead. He should be dead.

“Hey sis! How you feeling?” He asked.

“Frankie? Your suppose to be dead.” I said.

“What? Your the one who ran in front of the car to get to that stupid boy band” He laughed.

I looked around and saw Valerie.

“Val!” I shouted and she came sat next to me.

“Hi” She smiled.

“Wheres the boys?” I smiled.

“What boys?” She asked.

“Harry? Niall? Zayn? Louis? Liam?” I asked and she looked confused.

“Frankie who was that boy band?” I turned to him and asked.

“All Time Low” He said.

 “Excuse me you both can you please go outside for a bit the doctor has to talk to Makaila.”

I saw Valerie and Frankie walk out the door and saw the doctor walking.

“Hello Makaila welcome back” The doctor smiled at me.

“Hi. What happened to my babies?” I asked.

“What babies? No you weren’t pregnant.” He said.

“What?” I’m scared.

“Makaila. You’ve been in a coma for 2 years. How old are you?” He asked, what is he talking about.

“I’m 21 almost 22.” I said.

“No you’re 17 years old.” He replied.

“2 years in a coma?” 

“Excuse sorry. Nurse call the physiologist.” The doctor said. 

Its been two days since I woke up up from a coma and today is the second day from telling my so called ‘dream’ to the physiologist. I told her mostly everything. It wasn’t a dream. She said I feel like its real bc I’ve been in a coma and my brain has made me a new life while I was sleeping.

So It’s been three months since I woke up. I’ve been fine, I live in New York with my brother and Valerie my best friend. I’ve been seeing a therapist, so she’s been making me realize everything was a dream and not true. There is no such band called One Direction or 5 Seconds Of Summer. Which is true because I’ve googled it, but there is a singer named Ed Sheeran. 

I was walking back home from my final therapy session, New York was so different from last time I seen it. Well at least in my dream. I stopped infront of a coffee shop named StarBucks and I was just staring into the window.

“Excuse me, miss.” Someone tapped on my shoulder. 

I turned and face the person who tapped on me. Niall? The man who tapped on me looked a lot like the person that was in my dream.

“Hi.” I managed to get out. He looked exactly the same than Niall and he sounded like him.

“I couldn’t help but you are one beautiful lady and I was wondering if you would like to grab a cup of coffee?” He smiled.

“Um. Ya. Ya ya ya sure” I stuttered and smiled back.

“Great. My names Niall by the way.” He grabbed my hand and opened the coffee shop door for me.

Niall. 

“My names Makaila.” I said and tried to play cool.

“Lovely name.” He said and I walked into the coffee shop.

“Niall, just curious are you in a boy band?” I asked, but that was a random question.

“Nope. I go to college but I play soccer.” He said.

“Oh. I think I love you.” I said but I really didn’t mean to say that. Niall laughed, which made me laugh.

“You’re a funny girl. I like you.” He grabbed my hand and we sat down and started talking.

Life is funny innit.
