Remember Me

Chapter 12- Hello?

Leon!

Before the music had even finished, I jumped off the stage and over to Fran.

"Tell everyone not to follow me!" I said to her as I ran out of the door.

I was going as quickly as I could. 

I eventually got to the hospital and burst through the doors.

"Let me guess, you're Violetta, here for Leon Vargas?" Asked the woman at the desk.

"Yes, can I go and see him?"

"Sure, I take it you know where you're going." She said as I ran towards the lift.

I must have pressed the button about a thousand times before it came.

As soon as it reached the right floor I ran towards Leon's room. I burst through the door and saw the doctors and nurses by his side.

"What is it? Has something happened, please, no.....he can't have."

"No, Miss he is still stable, but only just."

I looked down.

"You have 2 minutes."

They left the room and I walked over to his side.

I looked at the machine attached to him. The beeps were further apart than I remember. 

I spent my first minute just staring at his face, tears streaming down mine. I didn't know what to say, the only thing I did say was

"I love you." Over and over between my sobs.

Then, I had one idea left.

I bent down and pressed my lips against his. I was waiting to feel his lips kiss back. Like what always happens in the movies. But I felt nothing.

I realised my two minutes were up.

I picked up my bag and reluctantly walked towards the door. Before I opened it I glanced back at him and smiled sadly.

Just as I was about to close the door, I heard a voice behind me.

"Hello?"
