Heroes We Could Be

The Thought

But everybody’s story begins “once upon a time”, and it’s up to us to cherish the time we’re given to ensure we live happily ever after.

It's been 2 weeks, they took her off the coma serum but she still hasn't waken up. I drove to the hospitals having white roses next to me. Her hospital room always looks alot more homely with the flowers in her room. I want her to wake up to see some beautiful flowers. Her dad told me that she loves white flowers. I've been so worried that she hasn't waken up yet that I haven't even seen if Lux is doing ok. I should probably text her. I walked into the hospital told the front desk I'm a visitor visiting Ora Smith. She let me pasted and I went in the elevator. What if she never wakes up? The elevator reached the coma level and I walked to her room with the white roses in my hands. I grabbed the door nob. I hesitated for a moment before proceeding with opening it. I looked in to see her peacefully alseep still hooked up to the machines. I replaced the white tulips that starting to wilt and put in the white roses. I looked at her moving the stray hair in her face. I sat down next to her.
"Hey Ora... um I know how your day went... um I saw a Disney land ad today and made me think of you and how you where so angry about the splash mountain picture." I grabbed out my wallet taking out the picture and placing it under the vase.

That's how the days faded. Weeks turned into months. Dad was hitting it hard, he was blaming himself. He was constantly running ELISA test and looking at microarray plates, he wasn't sleeping much either.  My two friends both where gone. Lux hasn't responded and Ora was still in her coma. I still visited her everyday and making sure the flowers were always healthy and fluffing her pillow. There where a few times I went with Ora's parents. Everyday sitting next to her for 15-30 minutes talking about my day and remeber a few but good times we shared together. Its now November 20th and still nothing

"So Ora I don't even know if you can hear me, but I feel like you deserve the truth. You may never wake up but at least you can know." I took a deep breath knowing if she does remember it could cause problems. I brushed her face with my fingers and kissed her cheek. I got down by her ear and whispered. "I'm Gladio, I hope you can keep that a secret when you wake up." I sat back down hoping that by a miracle she would wake up, but the opposite happened. I hear loud beeping from the machines and looked over at her heart rate dropping... fast. I rushed out the doors calling for a doctor or nurse and they ran torwards the beeping. They hurried and Ora's heart rate went flat. I started to cry and got pushed out of the room where they put a  defibulator on her chest and charged it and shocked. Nothing happened they did it again.... Nothing.... they did it one more time...

"Time of death?" A nurse said quietly.
I dropped to the floor in shock. She's dead...my life froze there was ringing in my ears.  how.. first my mom now her.  I was on the floor. I couldn't stop crying. She can't be... She can't be gone. Why.... I start to rock myself and I see dad run down the hall. I looked at him with tears in my eyes. His face... he lost his balanced and leaned to the wall. He walkes torwards me and dropped to the floor next to me and we both were crying. She's really gone... all the nurses walked out of the room and covered the corps. My life was frozen. Nothing seemed real. I got up went to the corps uncovered her and kissed her on the forhead.
"I love you." I whispered and a single tear dropped on her head. I wiped off the rear with my thumb and when I went to recover her up when I hear a groan from the corps. Her eyes opened. I didn't know I could be so happy to see her two eye colors with the bright blue and hazel. She had a smiled.
