Wishing I was 23

Help

Lauren POV

Wednesday morning. I woke up on an empty bed and realised what had happen last night.

I was shocked that she yelled at me. It was the first time she ever yelled at me. It's my fault for asking so much about her past.

I feel really guilty. I woke up and went to the bathroom to wash my face and wear one of Rachel's clothes. You can't blame me for stealing her hoodies and shirts. It's really big and comfy on me. I love it and proud to wear it.

I wore her blue soccer shirt and woke Sarah to help me find Rachel. I walked to Sarah's room to find her cuddling with Alessia.

I didn't remember her coming but I left them alone. I walked to her studio to find no one inside. I went to her favourite places in the house and Rachel was no where to be found.

I can't call her because she left her phone in the bed last night. I thought real hard and realised that I haven't searched the gym basement yet.

I used the elevator in our room and went to the gym basement. It was rare nowadays to see her there. I tried finding her at the basketball court but no one was there till I saw the gym next to it.

Blood was dripping from the punching bag and at the corner was an unconscious Rachel. I raced to her and held her to my arms.

Her head was bleeding and her right hands had cuts and her left was bruised badly. I didn't it would drive her mad.

I called the ambulance and called Sarah to come down and helped. I called her a few times till I hear a groan from Alessia.

"Hello?"

"Alessia, you have to wake Sarah up. Rachel is unconscious and bleeding. Please, come down to the gym. I need help", I panicked

"Alright, I'll wake her. Stay clam, Lauren", she instructed.

I hung up and just calm myself down. I kept rocking Rachel hoping she will be awake. "Rach, Babe, Rachel. You gotta stay awake for me baby. I'm sorry I pushed the questions to far. I'm sorry for making you dig the past. I'm so sorry, babe. Please wake up", I begged her and cried a few tears.

I felt a hand moved and her bloody hand raised to my cheeks and wiped my tears away. I looked at her and she smiles. "I-I l-love you, L-lauren", she said softly.

"No, No, No, Baby. Stay with me, Sarah's coming, please stay with me", I begged and she slowly closed her eyes and her arm fell.

"Lauren. LAUREN!!", I heard Sarah yell. "Over here!", I yelled back and she came running with Alessia and the paramedics.

"Okay, ma'am, I need to know what happened", one of the paramedic with a blonde hair spoke.

"Umm.. Im not sure but I think that she punched the punching bag a little to hard and without the boxing gloves and then, I don't know anymore. I wasn't here when she was unconscious", I explained and saw my Fiancé being carried to a stretcher.

Sarah helped put a shirt and her joggers. Soon, the paramedics carried her out of the house and I followed behind with Alessia comforting me.

We sat in silence, looking at Rachel with bandages on her head and her purple fists with cuts on them. I hung my head low thinking of what I did wrong. I felt so guilty.

"It's alright, Lauren. She'll be fine. I'm sure she will", Sarah spoke up and I look at her with a sad smile. "I called her parents and yours, their coming to the hospital soon", Alessia said and I gave a slight nod.

I held Rachel's right hand softly and kissed it. "Stay with us, baby", I whispered to her ear and kisses her cheeks.

We reached to the hospital and the paramedics pulled the back door open. Sarah, Alessia and I got out first then, they carried Rachel to the emergency room.
