CHAPTER 18
“I’m sorry Charity, there was nothing else we could do” The doctor looks at me, sympathy in his eyes.
I stare at him blankly, numbness overtaking me, I feel Christian pulling me into a tight hug, his hand stroking my hair.
“Would you like to see him?” The doctor asks quietly.
I nod, emotionless. Following the doctor down the sparse corridor, I watch as patience are wheeled in and out of various rooms, relatives and visitors pace anxiously, worry etched on their faces. We enter a dimly lit room with various medical equipment dotted around it. Laying on a gurney is the still, pale version of Jason.
Walking quietly toward him, I place my hand unsteadily on the side of the bed, close to his face.
“I’ll leave to your privacy” The doctor adds quietly as he exit’s the room.
I stare at Jason, my mind blank, I stare at him trying to comprehend what’s happened. What had happened? All I remember is Jason on the floor and the blood, I remember the blood around him. Looking a his sleeping face, I examine every feature, committing it to memory.
He saved my life, he took the impact of the car to save me.
He’s dead because of… me.
My legs give with beneath me as I slump on his bed, tears falling quickly down my pale cheeks, my breath catching in my throat as I struggle to breath through the sobs. Christian pulls my toward him, somehow he’s now on the floor with me, my head on his chest.
“Charity, it’ll be okay” Christian whispers, holding my head close to his hard chest.
My sobs begin to recede as I stare blankly ahead, my body aching, my head feeling like its split in two. Pretty much sums up my world right now.
Using Christians Shoulder as balance, I stand up gingerly, regaining my position next to Jason’s bed.
“I’m sorry” I whisper, taking his hand once again in mine, I kiss it lightly, a single tear rolling down my cheek.
