Jake Paul:Comatose Love

Chapter 38 RIP

"How is he?" Logan quickly asked, "Jake's strong, he's fine right?" Chance said hopefully, "Tell us we have nothing to worry about, please?" Kade said sadly, the rest of the Team continued bombarding the Doctor with questions, while Erika stayed silent, hoping and praying for the best, her body was tense, her heart heavy.
*Please Jake, please be okay, I'll never hurt you like this again, I promise, just please* Erika thought as tears stung her eyes again.

The Doctor cleared his throat, "Jake Paul's body started to go into shock from the sudden pain, he was hit multiple times in the head accompanied with the bullet wound was plenty taxing on his body,
we've been trying to keep his body from shutting down, or going into a coma by using electrical cardioversion, its anybody's guess right now, he's either just refusing to get up and letting himself
slip into a coma, or we're actually losing him" The Doctor explained a bitter look on his face,

Logan cursed loudly, getting the groups eyes on him, as he roughly wiped at his eyes with hand,
"You guys are welcome to talk to him, and try to get him up, if you can't within two hours he might not, and I guess we'll take over from there" The Doctor told them, he told them where his room was, before leaving them alone.

They all started to pile into the room, trying to think of what to say or do, fear setting in, if they weren't successful.

"Where are you going?" Chance asked nastily stopping Erika in the door way before she could walk in,
"I'm trying to-" Erika was saying quietly, before Chance interrupted, "You were just leaving" Chance said roughly pushing her shoulder, "Bro chill" Anthony said walking over, "But she's the reason all this happened,
why should she get another chance? Jake doesn't want her!" Chance said grimacing, "The why the heck did he risk himself for her?" Anthony questioned him roughly, Chance stood there dumbfounded, while Anthony grabbed Erika's hand leading her in, She mouthed a thanks to Anthony, who nodded, before standing beside Lauren,
who automatically grabbed his hand, as she stared down at Jake along with the others.

"Jake? Things have been pretty tough bro, but I know your strong, I know you can open your eyes," Logan started to speak, he grabbed Jake's hand squeezing it, "We're savages Jake...I don't know how long you'll be gone if you let this take you over- please don't let it, I need you around Jake, your my baby brother" Logan said his voice more gentle then usual as it started to break a little, watching his brother not even flinch in response to his voice or touches, Logan swallowed hard as fear started to consume him, "Please Jake? Please get up bro..." Logan spoke not even hiding his cracking voice this time, as the hand holding Jake's started to shake slightly, Nick patted his back, gently moving Logan back seeing he was starting to get emotional, while Nick tried to calm him down talking to him, Kade stepped in.

"Its Uncle Kade here Jake...I'm not fully sure what happened, but, regardless, you can do this bro,
the Team's all rooting for you," Kade spoke before glancing at everyone, starting up a quick quiet chant with the group
"Squad, Squad, Squad!" They chanted, it eventually died down, as Jake didn't join in, "Come on Jake!" Chance suddenly blurted out, as he teared up as well, "How's the trio gonna last forever without you? You make all our lives better, you can't just leave us without a good bye, I swear we'll work harder, we'll appreciate you more, please Jake!" Chance said wiping his eyes roughly, "Shouting won't help bro" Chad muttered, "Shut-" Chance was saying, he stopped, just looking away, biting his tongue trying not to cry,
Anthony watched people making emotional attempts of waking Jake up, he kept his hands in his pockets after Lauren walked over to be with her cousin, Anthony couldn't help being distracted with the clock, as time ticked away, the Doctors words ringing in his ears. *If we can't get him up in two hours, its over huh?* Anthony thought, half a hour had already passed, and Jake hadn't moved, or spoken, Anthony was always the more chill one in these situation, but he couldn't deny, his stomach was starting to churn, watching as people got more and more desperate, he looked over seeing Logan getting his parents on face-time, trying to get them to encourage Jake to get up, he squinted his eyes in pained shock, watching Logan beg his parents to fix Jake, he sounded like a sad little kid losing his playmate, in honesty it was a little heartbreaking.

"I need a break" Kade announced putting his hat over his eyes as he walked out, Nick followed him out, he kept his mind busy trying to help everyone else not do anything stupid over fearing for Jake, but in his heart and mind he was just as terrified. "Erika" Lauren whispered, Erika refused to look at her, her gaze glued on Jake, she hadn't left his side since she'd gotten in there, she was focused on watching his chest rise and fall, it somehow calmed her, and helped her try to forget the sound of the gun shot, the screaming, the blood...the tears.

"Erika, you haven't said anything, maybe Jake wants to hear you" Lauren whispered, Erika wiped her eye slowly, still just staring at Jake, "Erika, you have to try" Lauren told her, "I don't know what to ay" Erika finally whispered back, her voice broken as her heart felt, Lauren just rubbed her back.

As time ticked on, Anthony finally left the room without speaking, he just couldn't stay there seeing time had almost ran out, he couldn't hear the Doctor say anything when he returned, he couldn't bare any bad news about Jake, Anthony kept his hands in his pockets while he walked down the hall away from the room, he gritted his teeth, wishing he had of been faster, wishing he had of hit Banks harder when he had the chance,in frustration, he kicked a trash can sending it across the hall, as he kept his head down, hoodie and bangs covering his expression, as he walked on he suddenly felt some warmth beside him, someone hugging his arm.

"Its going to be okay" Lauren whispered to him kissing his cheek, Anthony shrugged, as he continued going down into the Hospitals lobby, Lauren now with him.

Erika watched as some of the other Team members left, either cause they couldn't handle watching Jake so lifeless, or going to ask the Doctor more questions, soon she was in there just her, Jake and Logan.

Erika's heart beat picked up, following with the clocks ticking, her stomach was in knots, her hands getting clammy, her eyes tearing up once again, she wanted to speak desperately, tell Jake how much she needed him.
*I might not ever get the chance again* Erika told herself, she glanced at Logan, whom was sitting down, head in his hands, his eyes puffy and red.

"Logan...I know its asking a lot, but can you please give me a minute alone with him" Erika walked over whispering into his ear, Logan looked about ready to protest, but gave it up, "Yeah, good luck" He whispered back before leaving the room.

Erika walked back to Jake's bedside slowly, she grabbed his hand, letting the tears drip down her face and dampen Jake's bedsheets, she leaned down placing a soft warm kiss against his cheek, she then put her lips by his ear.

"Nice going Jake, even after all I've done, you still managed to be my hero" Erika told him, just as the clock buzzed, showing the two hours were up, Erika laid her head on Jake starting to sob, her body shaking, suddenly a louder sound drowned her crying out, a cough...a loud gasp of air!
