Another Black Out

Chapter 7 ~ Another Black Out

Sydney’s P.O.V

I tried to get my mind off the things that have happened in the past four months. I am now five months pregnant and I found out I am having a girl. I have already started making dresses; it’s so exciting I wish Leiz was here. Oh yeah I forgot to say what happened to Eleizabeth. Well you know how I said I wanted to try and forget the events in the past four months. Well this is one of those events.

You see Leiz and I were out buying stuff for my baby, we had to cross the railway lines. There were heaps of people trying to get across before the train came. I told her to just wait until the train had passed but she insisted on crossing now, even if it meant not crossing through the gates. She passed me her bags and started walking away from the usual crossing. Being my dumb self I followed and didn’t say anything. When she got to where she wanted to cross, I could see the train coming, I tried to warn her but her three soon to be last words were ringing in my head. Are you ready? Then she jumped on the tracks and it hit her. The surgeons did all they could to help her but she died in surgery.

Those three words still haunt me now. Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready? Luke thought I was going mad and I scared him away. Now he is in Australia with his friends; too far away from me. I sat on the couch and sipped from my juice box. I turned on the TV and was flicking through the boring channels when I heard ‘One Direction’. If you didn’t know I loved One Direction.

I turned off the TV and thought I might go get some more stuff for my baby’s room. I grabbed my purse and walked out the door. I had found many baby shops with pretty good quality stuff. I was getting the cot and changing table dropped off on Sunday so I should get some extra things to decorate the room with like wall stickers or something.

I walked into the baby shop I usually go into and the cashier Daisy greeted me with a welcoming smile. I walked to the decoration part of the store and looked for the girl stickers. I found some really pretty butterfly and flower wall stickers in those girly colours. I walked into another area and found the wooden letters. They had a name on display. Daisy. Probably because the store manager’s name is Daisy but that is not the only reason it made my eyes slightly water. Eleizabeth and I wrote down on paper what names we would call our babies, Eleizabeth chose Daisy and Ben. Daisy, wait Daisy, that’s it! I will call my baby Daisy. I grabbed all the letters and went to check out.

I walked out of the store and headed towards the intersection. I pressed the button to cross the road and waited until I could cross. I looked at the rug shop behind me and saw a butterfly rug. I will get that next time I have enough stuff now. I faced back to ahead of me and I saw Leiz; yes I saw Leiz. She was crying and screaming the words Daisy NO! There was a child running across the road. Daisy; I screamed as people looked at me like I was a mad woman. Well, a child is on the road and there is a truck up ahead. I slashed my arms around and threw them towards the child. I fell to the ground. Leiz and the child were gone. I got my balance and stood up. As I turned around, everything went black. Please don’t tell me what I thought had happened really happened.

I heard faint voices. ‘Has she woken yet?’, ‘How has she been?’, ‘Will she be ok?’ The voice didn’t sound familiar. I sat there listening to someone constantly saying – 'She will be fine’, ‘Yes sir’ and ‘She will be ok sir’. I couldn’t take it anymore. I flattered my eyes open.

I saw the doctor in the corner of the room with a clipboard and some pens, no one else in the room. He saw me and came walking over. “Ah, Miss Oswald you have awoken. Someone has been worried about you.”

Who could it be? “I will send them in now.”

I mumbled out a quiet ‘ok’ and with that he left the room. I could hear his footsteps get quieter as he walked further down the hall. I turned my head to find my phone siting on the chair. I slowly lifted my body to reach it, when someone was pulling on the door’s handle. I laid back down and pretended to sleep. The person walked it, and I could sense they were getting closer. A hand brushed against my face, and then it disappeared. I didn’t want them to leave so I slowly opened my eyes so I could get a glimpse of who was there. My eyes were slightly open and I suddenly closed them, the man who was standing there, was neither Luke nor the doctor whom was in the room earlier. He had turned around and came walking towards me. The bed dipped; I really wanted to see who it was so I slightly opened my eyes and the man was looking at me with a smile on his face. I forced my eyes open more and then my vision became clear. Harry Styles was on my hospital bed.

 A/N So finally Harry Styles came into the story. But why was he on Sydney's hospital bed? Vote Comment and Share. I am currently writing the next chapter so I will have it up as soon as possible.
