Chapter Fifteen

Noah's P.O.V

I placed a kiss on her cheek and stood by her side. It was late at night. I had showered after everybody had left. The light beeping of the machine was becoming less and less annoying. I had a chair pulled up next to her bed.

"Rosi, It is very late right now. I can't sleep knowing you might wake up at any moment. I just want you to know that I am still talking to Shayne. I wanted to make you proud. I know how you say kindness is free, and maybe then you will be happy." I cried. I just wish I could get a reply.

"I even told him I would be there for him. I hugged him and everything. You should have seen, Rosi. I did it all for you." Her body was just there. Nothing moved. Looking at her now, she has definitely lost a lot of weight. She is so skinny. You could barely tell cause she is under covers, but you could tell. I took my phone, and decided to check it. I had a couple of text from family, but a lot of notifications from fans. I smiled. I missed interacting with fans. I liked many pictures and comments. It was adorable to see them be so happy. Some posted videos crying about how I noticed them. It was cute. I had this joy within my chest. I hadn't interacted in so long. The familiar feeling felt great. I went onto twitter and tweeted to ask me questions. immediately I received many replies. Most of them asked how are you, and how is Rosi. I ended up tweeting a separate tweet.

"I am fine, guys. Rosi gave us quite the scare earlier today, but she is doing good. She is still in a coma. Thank you all for your support Xx." I sent it out, and went onto instagram.

I started to make a video explaining the situation with Rosi. After I posted it, I grabbed onto Rosi's hand and started to record a video. I smiled at her.

"I love you, Rosi." Right then and there, I felt the softest and most gentle movement from her hand. I began to shake. I ended the video, and saved it. I turned on the flash, and shined it at Rosi's face. Her eyes were still closed. She looked the same. Was she trying to fight through her coma? I began to sob.

"Rosi, If you can hear me... Please wake up. You can do this." I cried. She tightened her grip on my hand again, but it was just as light as before. I smiled.

"Keep trying. You got this." I quickly pull out my phone, and call Keith. It takes a couple of calls, but finally he answers.

"Noah, do you know what time it is?" He groaned. His mattress creaked.

"Keith! I was holding onto Rosi's hand and she squeezed it!" I whisper-yell.

"Are you sure, Noah? You have not been sleeping well."

"I have a video, Keith."

"Then, what's taking you so long! Send it to me, bumfoofoo." I laughed at the weird nickname and sent him the video. There was a moment of silence. I hear sniffles.

"Keith?"

"Our girl! She is making it! She is fighting. Noah, I will show up right now. I will stay the rest of the night." I smiled.

"Okay! What's taking you so long?! Hurry it up!" He chuckled, and we said our goodbyes.

"Rosi, Keith is coming to see you." She squeezed my hand again. I was so excited.

"I can't believe that after so long, you are finally showing signs! I never lost hope. I almost did, but not completely." I hugged her. Of course she can't hug back, but I knew she could feel it and that is all that mattered.

...

"Hey, Noah." Keith said tiredly. I felt bad.

"Hey Keith. Come here." Keith walked over. He still had a skeptical face on, though he saw the video.

"Grab her hand." Keith grabbed her hand.

"Hey, Rosi." He smiled at her. I smiled at him as we waited.

"Noah, she isn't- Oh my god. I felt it! She is there. Rosi, you got this!" He jumped excitedly. He let go of her, and we hugged each other. Keith was crying.

"Finally a sign. Noah, she could wake up soon." I smiled and nodded.

"Yes, but we can't expect too much. It could take longer than we expect." He nodded at me.

"As long as we get our girl back, she can take as long as she needs." When keith said that, her pointer finger twitched. We looked at each other with idiotic smiles on our faces.

"Get sleep, Keith. In the morning, we can call everyone." Keith nodded, and laid on the bed. He knew I would refuse to sleep anywhere, but on the chair and next to Rosi.

"Goodnight, Noah and Rosi."

"Good night, Keith." I grabbed onto Rosi's hand, and she squeezed it.

Rosi's P.O.V

Wake up. I am trying so hard to move. I wanted to hug, Noah so badly. I am so proud of him, and just miss him. I wish he could get more than just a light squeeze from me, but that is all I can do. It is like trying to break away from restraints. "I love you, Rosi." Noah's voice was music to my ears. I just wanted Noah now. His hugs, cuddles, conversations, and all of him. I needed my best friend. I felt his hands raking through my hair. I was becoming angry. I just wanted to wake up! Like for fuck sake!
Today has been rough. Especially after hearing everyone tell me all these things. Shayne... left me absolutely shocked. The fact that as soon as he touches my hand, he cried. You truly don't realize how much you mean to people, until you are at your deathbed or what seems like is your deathbed. Keith was just a sweetheart. The way he got so excited when I squeezed his hand. I miss everyone. The girls, Smosh games squad, the fans, and most definitely Noah. I can't believe he has been staying here for more than a month with me in this hospital. I've heard him argue with Ian through the phone. Ian told him that he should go work, and he refuses. "If you won't give all the time needed until Rosi wakes up, then just fire me." Ian quickly said that he would never fire him. It's truly shocking to be in a coma. You don't realize how much people have to say to you. How many people don't want you to let go. Anthony's words made my heart ache. I feel like everyone talked about Shayne. Even if it was something bad.

I kept trying to move. I felt paralyzed. Nothing helped me move, and it was becoming sickening. Noah grabbed onto my hand.
"You don't need to tire yourself out. Take your time trying to fight through this. You can do this, Love. As long as you don't let go like you did earlier, then we are good." I squeezed his hand. I felt his tears fall in my hand. I felt his lips be placed on my hand and cheek.
"I love you, Rosi.... So much." I kept thinking about my death. When it happened, I saw Noah. I was floating above my body. Noah was crying above my body. It was the scariest thing I had ever seen. I didn't want to believe I was dead myself. I didn't want it to end yet. Then, it all faded to black, and that's when I realized I was alive again.
