Collin's POV
"Collin" I opened my eyes and saw a shadow looking down on me.
"Holly?" I cupped her face.
"I'm sorry" I shook my head.
"I'm sorry for being so mean to you" I grabbed her hand and began kissing it.
"I deserved it"
"You didn't deserve any of this" I leaned in but she pulled back.
"What?" I asked confused.
"I have to go" she let go of my hand and walked towards a door.
"Where?" She turned around and began crying.
"I'm dead" she whispered.
"Holland!" I shouted as I woke up. Sweat covered my entire face and neck. I looked around and saw that I was in a hospital room. Tubes were being put in my hand.
"Are you alright?" asked a doctor.
"Wheres Holland? Is she okay?" I panicked as I got up. The doctor came close to me and pushed me down.
"You have to rest" I pulled his hands away from me.
"You injected some bullshit into me. It's your fault I'm here. Where the hell is Holland?" The doctor sighed.
"She's being operated. Turns out her wrist isn't the only injury she had" I laid my head back.
"Is she going to survive?" He shrugged.
"She's been in that room for hours" I took in a deep breath.
"Don't worry, son" he patted my back. "I'll do everything to make sure she's okay" he smiled then left. I pulled out all the plugs from my arms and put on my regular clothes instead of this stupid butt robe. I left out and went to look for my mom. I stopped looking for a while because I didn't find her.
"Uh, hi. I'm looking for a lady that was with me earlier?" I asked the receptionist.
"I didn't see you here earlier?" I frowned.
"Before I got taken away, a lady was with me?" She shook her head.
"That lady is my mom, okay? She's here with Holland Grace. The patient who lost a lot of blood from her wrist?" She nodded.
"You meant a lady that was with you three days ago?"
"Three days ago?" She nodded.
"Holland Grace entered the emergency room on April 17, 2014. It's April 19 sir."
"I've been out for three fucking days?" I shouted.
"Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to calm down" I pulled on my hair.
"You guys injected me with some bullshit that knocked me out for three days straight! How the hell am I going to calm down?" The women nodded.
"I understand and I'm sorry" I frowned.
"Don't be sorry. You didn't inject that shit in me. Where's the doctor that just left my room? Did you see him or did that happen three fucking days ago too?"
"He's operating on your friend Holland" I sighed.
"She's not my friend"
"My mist-"
"She's my girlfriend" I interrupted. "And if you don't save her, this hospital will hear from me. You have enough equipment to make a person go to sleep for three fucking days? Then you have enough equipment to save a persons life" I turned around and took a seat.
"Any families of Holland Grace?" A doctor said as he came out of the operating room. I stood up as fast as I could and rose my hand.
"Is she okay?" The doctor looked down.
"I'm afraid we lost her" I stared at his face. Waiting for him to say that it's a joke and that she really is okay.
"What?" I sighed.
"She's dead" that sentence. That one sentence turned my whole life upside down. I couldn't feel anything. My whole body was numb and I was still trying to process her death. I lost my girlfriend but most importantly I lost my best friend. Have you ever felt like that? When someone that is so dear to your heart dies? Don't you feel like they took a piece of you with them? Holland didn't just take a piece. She took everything.
"You can see her for one last time if you'd like"
"Can't you do anything to save her?" I said in a low tone.
"I think it's too late, son. I'm sorry for your lost"
I nodded and went inside. The first thing I saw was her body. No tubes, no injections. Nothing. It was just her lifeless body covered with a white sheet. I turned around and saw the doctor leave. I walked towards her bed and sat on the chair besides her.
"So that's it? You're just going to leave me?" I was mad at myself.
"I wanted a forever with you. Not a two month thing" I picked up her hand and tangled her fingers with mine.
"This is the closest thing I'll feel from you grabbing my hand" I felt as the tears fell off my neck.
"At least you'll see your parents now" I smiled and tried to hold back my tears.
"You gotta wake up, Holly" nothing.
"You can't leave me. I need you" I brought her hand up to my cheek.
"You were the best thing that ever happened to me and you have to wake up. I don't know, and I wouldn't dare to imagine life without you" tears began running down my face.
"You're not dead Holly, you just went to visit your parents for a bit. I know you'll come back. And when you do, i'll be here with my arms wide open and promise to never close them on you again" I sniffed as I stroked her cheek. I got up and walked towards the door. I gave one last glance at Holland before leaving. I turned around and reached for the door knob.
I heard a deep breath come out, and it wasnt from me. I widened my eyes and turned around. I ran to holland and kneeled down besides her.
come on, come on. I whispered in my breath. Nurses came rushing in through the door and asked me to leave.
"No! Im staying here. If you ask me to leave one more fucking time, im sueing this peice of shit hospital for keeping me dead for days. Heard me?" They all nodded.
"Collin" she said in a faint whisper. I turned around and got next to her.
"You're alive.." I whispered as tears ran down my face. I grabbed her hand and placed it on my cheek.
"Arent you going to help her?" I spoke to the nurses. The nurses came and helped her up.
"Can you breath probably? Can you feel your wrist?" Asked a nurse.
"Yeah" Holland commented as she smiled. My girl is back.
-----------------
I got home and passed by the kitchen hand in hand with Holland.
"Holland?" My mom shouted. Holland let out a big smile.
"Holland! never scare me like that again!" My mom brought Holland in for a big hug, soon letting go.
"Come on, we have to talk" Holland bowed her head then nodded. We went upstairs to my room and say on the bed facing eachother.
"I thought I lost you" she smiled.
"I'll never leave you, Collin" I bowed my head.
"Then why did you cheat?" I stared into her eyes.
