"How can you stand this?" Gabby asked me. Her face was tear stained, and she was standing behind me, gazing at our daughter.
"I can't really. But I'll do anything for Jadis…" I replied. Mikey sniffled. He was leaning against a wall, looking miserable. For something to do, he started fiddling with Jadis' black and red roses. We had bought her the flowers, merely because Gabby wished it, and we both knew she loved black and red roses. The flowers washed the sterile scent away, slightly, and they managed to lighten the room, sitting on my girl's bedside table. I clutched Jadis' hand in mine, praying, with every part of my existence, that she'd wake up. Two months, she had lain in that bed. Two months, she had not moved. Too long…
"I should've never let her go!" Gabby cried.
"She wanted to come. Besides, I should've never let her out of my sight!" I said. The door, to the room, creaked open. The kind, elderly doctor, who had been caring for Jadis, walked in.
"May I please talk to you, sir?" He asked me. I stood up, and exited the room. The doctor looked worried, upset…uncomfortable.
"Is there something wrong?" My heart rate accelerated.
"In a way, yes," I stared at him, searching his eyes for more of an explanation. "By the looks of things, your daughter is most likely not going to wake up." I felt my eyes bug. This must've been another side effect of the withdrawal, or the horrible headache, throbbing behind my eyes.
"No!" I shouted.
"I'm afraid, that I'm going to have to ask you, to sign a form, allowing us to turn off her life-support." The doctor finished.
"No!" I cried. "I'm not going to fucking kill her!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Way. Besides, technically you're not killing her."
"I won't do it!"
"She's just taking up a bed, which could be used to save another life."
"Why can't it be used to save her fuckinglife?" I roared.
"She isn't going to wake up! She practically is dead!" The doctor told me, harshly. We heard Gabby scream, from inside Jadis' hospital room. I spun away from the doctor, and hurried back into the room. I'd started to panic. Why the fuck would she be screaming in a hospital? Unless, Jadis really had died.
"Gabby? What's the matter?" I questioned, heading straight toward her. She was staring at Jadis, her mouth gaping, one finger pointing.
"She-she moved! I swear!" Gabby looked at me, her eyes were bloodshot, and wet. I turned to Mikey.
"Did you see anything?"
"I'm not sure what I saw. But I think I saw something." He said, quietly.
"Jadis?" I asked her, uncertainly. Her finger twitched slightly, I'm certain! "Jadis, sweetheart? Can you hear me?" The room was still. "Jadis, please. Just open your eyes. Open your eyes!" I begged. We waited, all staring at Jadis. Everyone gasped, as Jadis' eyes flickered a little, as if she were struggling to open them. I spun around, so I was right in the doctor's face. "Shewill wake-up, and she will stay here until she does." The doctor just looked dumbfounded.Thank-you, Jadis, I thought, You just saved both of us.
The doctor, called a nurse, to tend to Jadis, and help her wake-up. Mikey, Gabby and I were sent to the waiting room, so they could make sure Jadis wasn't going to have a heart attack if she saw us. We sat, and waited. Mikey called the rest of My Chemical Romance, and told them of the progress. He didn't tell me if they were coming or not, so I sat tensely.
