That's Why They Call It The City Of Love

He's Awake!

Alex's Pov

I woke up in a hospital room. I wondered why I was here till everything that happened on Emily's birthday. That asshole had the nerve to shoot someone. If she wasn't interested, let it go and move on, not go ape shit and flip out, that's not gonna get her back, for sure. I sat up on the bed and held my head since I still felt a bit dizzy. The doctor walked in and looked at me in shock for some unknown reason.

"What are you so shock about?" I snapped.

"That you actually made it" he said and I looked at him in confusion. "You only had a 5% of living" he said in a whisper and my eyes widen.

"Wait what?" I asked in shock and disbelief.

"Yeah, you've been out for a week and you lost a lot of blood" he explained. I was actually shocked at what I heard till the doctor spoke again but quietly, to himself. "I guess that girl helped after all".

"What girl?" I asked. The doctor looked startled that I had actually heard him.

"Um, there was girl that came here everyday, all day to see you, I think her name was Emily?" he said, trying to remember.

"Emily was here?" I asked.

"Yes, she's actually sleeping on the couch, in the waiting room since we didn't let her come in yesterday night" he explained.

"Can I go see her?" I asked and he nodded.

I stood up and walked out of the room and to the waiting room. I saw Emily, curled up in a ball, sleeping on the couch with a frown on her face. She was wearing a grey sweater with tights and black boots. I kneeled down beside her and smiled. I had to admit that she looked cute when she was sleeping even though that sounded creepy but whatever.

"Stay away! No! Stay away from me Mike!" Emily started screaming in her sleep.

She started twisting and turning and her breath started to become into panting breaths. Emily started crying out for help over and over again with tears streaming down her face. I grabbed her hand to calm her down and she shot up, awake.

"What happened?" Emily asked, using her other hand to whip the tears away.

"You had a bad nightmare, sweetheart" I said and she snapped her head to me in shock.

"Alex?" Emily asked in shock. I nodded and smiled.

"Oh my gosh! You're alive!" Emily shouted before tackling be to the ground in a hug. I laughed as I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"It's nice to see you too" I laughed.

"I was so worried when they told me you only had a 5% chance on living and I thought that it would be all my fault" Emily said, frowning again. I frowned as we both sat up even though Emily was practically sitting on my lap.

"It wasn't your fault Emily, I chose to do what I did" I reassured her.

"Yeah but if I didn't piss off Mike then this wouldn't of happened" Emily said.

"You were only sticking up for yourself and making sure you don't end up with a broken heart again" I defended her.

"I guess" Emily shrugged.

"Just don't think about it" I told her.

"Fine" Emily sighed. We just sat there in comfortable silence till we heard a sob and we turned our heads to the left to see the doctor was sobbing.

"That....was....so....BEAUTIFUL!" the doctor cried in between sobs. Me and Emily looked at each other and tried not to laugh.

"Uh thank you?" Emily said, shrugging but she ended up giggling.
