Olivia's POV
Everything is dark and warm, comfortable and silent. Is this really what death felt like? Like sleeping? Like drifting into darkness and swimming there forever? Cause if so, it feels kinda nice...Then the voices begin calling to me;
Via...? Can you hear me sweetheart? it's Mom...I knew her voice anywhere, other voices chime in and I recognise them all; Dad, Emma, Sky, Iain, Demarius....Ben.
When do you suppose she'll wake up? Emma is asking, her voice quiet and distant sounding.
The doctors say it could be a few days...maybe weeks. Dad's voice chimes in, sounding strong and warm, yet so hollow and numb, it physically hurts me to hear it.
The voices begin blur into one and I only catch little snippets of them throughout the next couple ours.
I hear Alex's dramatic and soothing voice reading the next chapter of Beauty and The Beast that we left off on and I find myself smiling at all his cute and creative voices that he uses for every character. Deep and rough for the Beast, gently and sweet for Beauty, old and gravely for the Beauty's father...
Then Sky's voice picks up next...
You need to wake up soon Via...you're so strong...you've battled bigger monsters than this in your short life and I know you can push through and persevere over this one too...please keep fighting...for me...for your family....most importantly for yourself...please Liv...please...
Then I hear a melody, a strumming of chords on a guitar, familiar and relaxing, then I hear someone singing...It's Iain...singing Somewhere Only We Know...I can't believe he remembered my favourite song...
I then hear a muffled conversation between Iain and someone else that I can't quite hear, then the sound of a door opening, then silence. There also seems to be the sound of beeping coming from the right of me...kind of like the beeping of a heart monitor...The sounds of sobbing next to my bed interrupt my thoughts and a gently hand squeezes my hand.
I'm sorry... Ben's voice whispers, his voice quivering. It's my fault your here...
He then proceeds to make this big speech, apologising for everything that's happened and that he wish he could take it all back. Then he finishes with something that completely shatters my heart;
I know that you know that I'm not really your brother... he continues but no matter what circumstances we may be under right now...you'll always be my baby sister...I love you so much and I'm so sorry I let you down...please come back to us Liv...please...
He then begins to sing softly to me...a song I knew all too well...A song from Brother Bear...
Tell everybody...I'm on my way...new friends...and new...places...to see...
With blue skies ahead...yes...I'm on my way...and there's nowhere else...that I'd...rather be...
Silence now envelopes my mind as Ben's voice slowly floats away and I feel a light, weightlessness to my whole body.
Is this it? I think to myself. Am I actually passing on?
A bright light then enters my field of vision and I find myself suddenly in a blinding white hospital room, stood next to a bed that appears to have a sleeping girl on it, and that that girl seemed to be...me?
