Saving Megan

Please, Wake Up

              Nick's P.O.V
            A Month Later

      Megan's been in a coma for about a month. I come every morning, every afternoon Luke comes with my homework and Mia. Mia has started going to out school, plus her and Luke have started dating. The rest of the gang hang out here every Saturday. We haven't heard or seen anything from Zach. Before I leave every night I kiss her forehead, where her cut used to be. Most of her injuries have healed. The big one on her forehead, the little ones all over her face, and the ones on her arms.

      It's Friday morning and I'm sitting in my chair holding Megan's hand. I look at her face expecting to see her move, but she doesn't.

   "Megan, you need to wake up. You missed the talent show last month, Sara won. She entered because we didn't. Mia and Luke started dating, they'll be here later with my homework. The school isn't going to make you do any. We didn't tell police about Zach, just that you got hit by a car. The car you got hit with was Kylee's, you know Ross's ex-girlfriend. I love keeping you up on all the stuff that goes on, but I would love it even more if you could live it." Tears start to come down my face. " Megan, I love you. I don't want some of my last words to you be 'your so aggravating'. I love you so much, Megan. I'm so sorry, if I had just run a little faster I could've saved you. I should be the one in that coma, not you." I say and put my head in my hands.

   "Trust me coma land, sucks." I hear those words and my head shoots up. I see the smile on her face, the one I haven't seen in forever, and I hug her.

     "Megan, don't you ever do that again." I say and kiss her forehead over and over again.

     "Not my fault Kylee loves that asshole." She laughs and I smile.

      "You heard me?" I ask.

     "Of course, I did. I love you, too." She says. I grab her face and put my lips on her's. The softness and comfortness felt so good. I've missed her so much. I pull back and look into her eyes.

      "I got a call from Zach the day Kylee hit you." I say and I feel the anger rush through me, again.

    "How long have I been out?" She asks.

    "Megan you've been asleep for a month. I gotta go call the others." I say and grab my phone. I call Mia, first.

    "Hey, what's up." She says.

    "Nothing, but I need you and the gang to come down to the hospital." I says.

     "Is something wrong? Is Megan okay?" She starts yelling into the phone.

     "Damn, girl, she's fine. Just get down to the hospital."

    "Okay, I'll get everybody and be down there in like 15 minutes." She says and hangs up.

     " So, what did." Megan took a deep breath " Zach say."

     "He was just calling to scare the crap outa me. I told him that you were in the hospital and he flipped. I told him to fuck off or I wouldn't hesitate to snap his neck. We haven't heard from him since." I say. She laughs and then it fades.

   "He'll come, he always gets what he wants." Tears start to fall off her face. She's always been so tough, so seeing her like this, so weak, is heart breaking.  I hug her.

    "He won't touch you, ever. I promise." I say and kiss her forehead.

     "I hope your right." She whispers. We stay quite. I'm so happy she's back, but she's just so terrified. What the hell happened to her, I have to know.
