*Ava’s POV*

“Ava, please come back” Connor was shouting me.

I ignored him and the small voice inside my head telling me to return to Connor. I didn’t want to hurt him any more than I already had.

He was screaming, begging me not to leave him. I couldn’t block the noise any longer. I couldn’t stand it, I took myself further into the road and just ran.

 I didn’t know where I was going or even what I was doing. I felt this urge to turn round.

As I did so, I instantly regretted it, Connor’s body was hit. He fell to the floor as cars carried on hitting him.

This time it was me screaming, begging him to wake up. I didn’t stop running until I reached his body, his eyes were closed and his arms were bleeding. His face was covered in blood and his lip was bust. This didn’t stop me seeing the beauty in this boy. I couldn’t let him die.

People were surrounding me, pulling me away from him. I tried my hardest to free myself but it was no use, they had me and Connor was taken into a car.

“He’s dead, you have to realise that” a women started to tell me.

“Shut up” I placed my hands over my ears blocking these words from entering my mind.

“He’s dead and it’s all your fault”

“This is your fault, you left him and without you he was weak. He needed you and you need him. The same will come to you, eventually” people started to attack me as I ran.

“Please, let me go” I cried

“You killed Connor”

  “Ava” I was being shaken.

“I had a nightmare”

“I know it’s okay. I’m here and Connor’s not dead” James tucked my hair behind my ears.

“Thank you James” I whispered.

“Come here”

I leant into James, he was so warm. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer.

“I need to say something”

“Okay” I nodded

“I wanted to tell you this before you and Connor even became a thing, I liked you before him. It was about two or three weeks before I met you fully that I formed this thing for you. You was at a party, I was there too and you were dancing with this other boy and I couldn’t keep my eyes off you. God I wish I had the nerve to go up to you but you were so beautiful and I couldn’t even move closer.

 Anyway my point is, I like you Ava. I like you a lot”

I already knew this, the truth is, I saw him staring at me and god I was in love within seconds. I was waiting for him to ask me to dance or something but he never did, he just stared.

I pulled myself onto James’s lap and I pressed my lips to his. He placed his hand behind my back and softened into the kiss.

I know this isn’t fair for Connor but I could lose him, I love him I really do but what can I do when he’s in a coma?
