Radio Love

I will always love you

Elizabeth

I woke up, tried to open my eyes but everything was blurry still. I could hear voices around me talking. I tried to sit up but my head hurt and I fell back down onto the bed.

"Oh honey, stay lying down" My mom said, I think that was her voice."

"Mom?" I asked, my voice was groggy.

"Yes honey and your sister Marie is here as well, we heard about Tyler and then I got a call about you, I'm sorry sweetly." My mother grabbed my hand and kissed it.

"Hey you little bitch, stop being sad, he's strong he'll make it out of it." She added hopefully quiet enough so no one could here but I heard her and that made my heart ache even more. 

Marie is my older sister,30, only 9 years more older than I am. She was a big role model in my life, with her fancy job as a lawyer, a nice house, with a husband and 2 kids by the names of, Jacob,9 and Scarlet,12. They were cute children but just like their mother, there attitudes suck. 

After Marie got a new house, we had lost contact for like 5 years and I missed her, just a tad bit. When I went off to college and left home when my dad was sick, she told me that I was the worst sister because I wasn't there for my dad when he needed me the most and that I had killed him because I wasn't there.

That hurt me, but I still love her, she's my sister.

"Where is he? Is he alive?" I asked and tried to sit up but my mom held me down.

"Calm down, sweetie. The doctors are still in their with him, we haven't heard a single word but he if he does die, you will need to come back home with me, you're not going to be capable of staying by yourself for a while." She said and rubbed my arm.

"No, don't say that. He will survive. He will. If he doesn't and that's a little 'if', I will enlist in the military." I said and tears fell down my cheek but I didn't care enough to wipe them off. 

"Sweetie, I'll let you rest and try to rethink your answer." With that both her and Marie, exited the room. 

Little did she know, I was serious about my answer, I have always wanted to go but something always stopped me. When my father died, I was devastated but I couldn't show it because I had to take care of my mom, so I couldn't grieve. When Tyler's sister died, I was there for him. When Marie had Scarlet, I had to be there because i'm the aunt.

I sat up, with no pain in my head and finally my vision had cleared so I look at my surroundings. I was in a hospital room, small but big. A stand next to me, a big wall of windows, a small bathroom to my right. I got up and jumped in the shower and noticed that my mom had brought me clothes to put on.

When I got the clothes on, they were small and I noticed that they were Marie's because I had a bigger but than her and my hips were bigger as well. 

I opened the room door and peeked out to see if there was anyone outside, since the coast was clear, I slipped out and raced towards Tyler's room only to see that his parents walked out of the room crying.

God please don't let him be dead. Please. NO!

I walked in his room and saw Tyler and again the tears escaped. There was a tube in his mouth, most likely to help him breathe. There was an IV in his arm, then there was another bandage around his head and there was blood on it. I put my hand over my mouth to stop my sobs from escaping, yet tears still escaped and I tried to hold my sobs in but they kept getting louder.

I walked over to his bed and fell to my knees. I cried even harder, just seeing him like this breaks my heart.

Why do you have to be a good person, Tyler? Why?

I pulled a chair up to his bed and stared at him. More tears escaped and my sobs grew louder.

"Tyler, please wake up. Please. I need you more than ever, don't leave me. Gosh, remember when we played doctor as little kid and when I was the patient you actually cried because i'm a really good actor. You better be acting or something Tyler. I can't lose you." I said threw my sobs.

"I don't know if you can hear me or not, but I saw your parents walk out of here crying. I don't know why they are crying for you, they shunned you ever since Brianna's death. Which I hope you don't see her anytime soon, your time isn't here yet. Soon it will come and I won't be ready for it." I cried again.

I was about to say something else when the doctor walked in along with his parents.

"Well, Ms.Miller, I see your awake." The doctor said and walked over to Tyler's bed.

"Can you please tell me what's wrong with my son?" Tyler mom, Betty said.

I scoffed at the mention of the word son, she looked over at me and rolled her eyes.

"I promised myself I wouldn't say anything to you guys, in front of Tyler but for you to call him your son is not acceptable. You blamed him for Brianna's death, told him that he should of been the one to die, you shunned him when he was grieving her death and shunned him when he was in jail and needed you guys the most, guess who was there through all of that, I was. Not you guys. So please don't call him your son." With that I stood up, nodded at the doctor and walked out of the room.

I was about to walk away but the doctor said,

"Mr and Mrs. Stone, your boy Tyler, is in a coma and I can't say how he will be there. There is bleeding in his brain, he can't breathe without a machine and a piece of wood lodge into his spine, we are going to do surgery on him tomorrow to get the wood out and try and stop the bleeding, I'm sorry." The doctor walked out and saw me and patted me on the shoulder.

I ran to the room I was in, closed and locked the door and broke down again for the second time.
