CHAPTER 21

Laura’s POV

6 days. 6 days without Brad’s smile, 6 days without sleep and 6 days straight holding his pale, unmoving hand.

“Brad, I don’t know if you can hear me, but if you do, I love you. I. Love. You,” I say honestly, hoping he would hear it, I stared at his lifeless face, wanting it to move, anything, but there was only stillness.

 I pushed my chair closer to the bed, keeping my hands on his. I laid back, and drifted off to sleep. I felt tapping and someone calling my name. Hoping it was Brad, I instantly opened my eyes. Sadly, it was just my mom.

“Hey Laura,” She said gently, “You haven’t eaten all week, here” She placed something which I think is food on the desk beside me. She leaves the room, and I glance at the food.

I decided to eat it because I know Brad would want me to. After I finished, I glanced at Brad. He was sickly pale, the Rose red in his cheeks, gone.

 I thought about all our memories together, our first kiss, our first glance. I just want to see his beautiful brown eyes, his smile that melts my heart. I feel my eyes tearing up, and not wanting to hold in my feelings anymore, I let them flow down my face.

Brad’s POV

I feel cold, I opened my eyes but it didn’t do anything, it was still dark. I walked around, suddenly, I was transported to a white room. In one corner, there was a waterfall.

Soon, the water spread across the room, and it was growing higher. In about 5 minutes, the water had risen up to my chin.

The water went above my head. Expecting to feel heavier and heavier, I ended up feeling lighter and lighter.

I opened my eyes once again, to see curtains surrounding me, except one side. I looked to my left and saw Laura. She was sobbing, I reached out to her with my other hand, and tapped her shoulder.

“Laura?” I said hoarsely. She looked up with her eyes wide.

“Brad?” she said, not seeming to believe it was me.

“You’re awake!” Before I could respond, she tackled me in a hug.

“Where am I?” I said, curious.

“You’re in the hospital.”

“Why?”

“We… got into a car accident.” She said slowly. My eyes widened at the memory. Flashing light, James, Lola.

“W-where’s James and Lola? Are they hurt?”

“James and Lola are fine. They woke up 3 weeks ago. Wait let me call a doctor.” She said, and got up to look for one. After a few minutes, the door opened and in came a tall, bald man.

“Good morning Mr. Simpson, glad to see you’re finally awake.”

“Hey, doc. When can I go?”

“Well, you see the car, it hit on your side of the car the most, impacting you much worse than the others,”

“So?” I asked, getting worried.

“I’m afraid that, the impact damaged some of the nerves leading up to your legs.”

“Meaning?”

“Mr. Simpson… you might never be able to walk again.”

       THAT WAS CHAPTER 21! Poor Brad. My heart hurt writing this. If you didn’t understand the waterfall part, it symbolized Laura’s tears. If you read this, comment “6 days”
