Saving Megan

A Phone Call

               Nick's P.O.V

     "WHAT DO YOU WANNA HEAR? HOW MY FATHER RAPED ME WHEN I WAS ONLY 13! HOW I WAS BEATEN EVERY NIGHT! AND IF I TOLD ANYONE THAT HE WOULD KILL MY OWN MOTHER! AND THATS WHAT HAPPENED, I TOLD MIA AND HE KILLED MY MOTHER!  AND THEN HE MADE MIA DISAPPEAR! IS THAT WHAT YOU GUYS WANNA HEAR!!!!" Megan screamed. I felt like my heart just broke. Someone hurt her and I was pissed. Megan's eyes widened. I stepped forward.

     "Megan." I say and then she bolted out of the house. Me and Luke run after her. We keep screaming her name, but she keeps running. I see a car come towards her.

      "Megan watch out!!" I scream. Megan turns towards the car and it sends her flying through the air. I look at the car, it looks like Kylee's car. I run to Megan. She has cuts all over her body. There's a big one on her forehead. And little ones all over her face. I check for a pulse, its a faint one.

     "Luke call 911!!" I yell, but Luke is already screaming into his phone. I need to keep Megan alive.

     I put my hands together and start to do CPR. Thank god, I payed attention in health class. "Tell the ambulance she has a low pulse!" I yell. Luke comes over to me. We're both crying now, Luke's just the more calm one here.

      "The ambulance will be here in less than two minutes. Let me take over." he says. I shake my head.

      "No, I... I need to do this." I say. I hear a sob from behind.

     "Megan!!! No, please!!!" it's Mia. We hear the sirens and the ambulance comes and put Megan on a strecher.

     "We'll be right behind you." Luke says and I get in the ambulance with Megan.  The doctors are putting needles into Megan. I hold her hand and pray that she's ok. She has to be ok.

     When we get to the hospital they take her into the ER. A nurse stops me and tells me to wait in the waiting room. I just stand in the waiting room.

      "Where is she? Is she ok?" Mia asks running into the waiting room. She spots me and runs over to me. "Where is she?"

      "They took her into the ER." I say and she hugs me.

       "You love her, don't you?" she say. I nod.

        "With all my heart." I say. I knew I had feelings for Megan, but I feel like I don't want her. I need her, she makes me a better person.

      " She loves you too. And she's going to fight, its what she does best. You need to take care of her. She's my best friend and she's been through to much. Keep her safe. I know you wish it was you in there. I can see it in your eyes. Megan wouldn't want that. She would want us to be strong. Just don't hurt her anymore." I nod. She wipes away my tears. And Luke holds her and calms her down. I lean back on the wall and sigh. Luke and Mia are sitting right next to Sara and Nate.

     "I shouldn't have pressured her. She would've told us when she was ready. It's all my fault." Luke whispers.

     "No it's not. This is all Zach's fault, ok. I know Zach, he's a bad person. He'll do whatever it takes to get what he wants. Its no one's fault, only Zach's." Mia says. We all nod.

       It's been an hour and we haven't heard anything. Megan's foster parents went out of town yesterday and are trying to get a flight home. Everyone went home except me, Mia, and Luke. Mia looks broken, she could loose her best friend and so could I. I can't loose Megan. The only thing that is keeping me stable right now. Is picturing her smiling and laughing. When you see Megan smile, you can't help but smile back. My phone breaks me out of my thoughts.  Thinking it was one of our friends I answer.

      "Hello?" I ask.

      "Nick, just the person I wanted to talk to."

       "Who is this?"

       " Oh, Megan didn't tell you. I'm her favorite dad in the world, Zach." Hearing her name come out of his mouth, sends shivers down my spine.

      "Listen you asshole, if you ever come near Megan, again. I will not hesitate to kill you. Your the reason why she's in the hospital!" I yell into the phone.

     "That stupid idiot I told her not to hurt her." I don't think he realises he's on the phone still.

      " Stay away or I'll kill you!!" I yell. He chuckles.

      "Is that a threat?"

      "No, it's a fucking promise!" and I hang up the phone. Luke comes over to me.

      "It was him, wasn't it?" Luke growls. I nod.

    "Megan Sierra?" The doctor says and we rush over. "Megan is stable for now. There was a moment when she flat lined." My heart dropped. No Megan has to be ok. " She's ok. If it weren't for you." he points to me. " She wouldn't have made it, but." He pauses and takes a deep breath.  "She's in a coma. We don't know when or if she will wake up. I'm sorry." My heart dropped. Megan asleep forever. I'm not going to be able to see her smile or laugh,  until she wakes up. If she wakes up.
