Forever, I Promise || A.I.

Chapter 22

~Ashton's Pov~

I've been sitting in my house for hours with nothing to do. I really want to see Nikki. It's like I can't go one day without seeing her. It's impossible.

I pick up my phone and call her. There's no answer. I sigh and put my phone on the table. I look up at the ceiling and start daydreaming.

I daydream about Nikki, my family, my friends, and just....my life. I eventually fall asleep.

2 Hours Later

I wake up to my mom shaking me. My eyes pop open and I look at her.

"Mom, what is it?" She stares at me, looking afraid. "Is everything alright?"

She sighs. "Ashton, Nikki got into a car accident a little while ago."

My heart drops. I feel my eyes starting to water.

"Wh...wha....what? Is....she okay? Mom, please tell me she's ok!"

"I don't know honey."

I need to make sure she's ok. I need to go see her. Right now.

I stand up and walk to the front door. "I'm going to the hospital mom." I walk out of the door before she even says goodbye.

When I get in my car, I feel a tear run down my cheek. Why do these things need to happen? Why?

I arrive at the local hospital and jump out of my car. I run to the front doors. I stop when I get to the front desks.

"Hello. How may I help y-"

"Where is Nikki Reed? What room is she in? How is she?" I shoot all these questions at her fake smile drops.

"She's in room 341. The doctor is with her at the moment so you might have to wait a little bit."

I nod and walk fast to the her room.

God, I hope she's alright. If she's not, I'll just die. I'll fucking kill myself.

I see room 341 and a man with a white jacket is standing in front of her door. It's her doctor.

"Hello, are you Nikki's doctor?"

He looks at me and nods. "Son, do you know if she has any family we can call?"

I shake my head. "I'm all she's got. I'm her boyfriend."

He sighs. "I'm so sorry, but she's in a coma. I don't know if she'll wake up."

Shit! Just what I didn't want to happen happened! She'll fight it, I know she will.

I blink back some tears that were beginning to form. I need to be strong, for Nikki.

I look up at her doctor, Dr. Roy, and say, "Doctor, can I....see her?"

He sighs. "I don't think right now is the best time. Maybe tomorrow." I nod, understanding. "Can I get your name and information so I can put you down for who to call?"

I nod. I'm all she's got. Except for Rebecca.

I need to call her. She probably doesn't know. After Dr. Roy walks away, I take out my phone and tap Rebecca's icon.

"Hello?" she says.

"Rebecca. Nikki got into a car accident a couple of hours ago."

There was just silence. Then there was sniffling. She was crying.

"Is....is.....sh...she....okay?"

"She's in a coma. The doctor doesn't think she'll wake up from it."

"Oh my god."

We eventually got off the phone. I went home after that. I for one am glad to get out of this hospital. Hospitals, to me, mean death. I don't want that.

I get back to my house and walk up to my room slowly. I sit down on my bed and start to think of my life without Nikki. It breaks my heart. It fucking breaks my heart knowing that she might not recover.

Why isn't life fair? Why can't we just go through life without any problems?

Nikki having at good relationship with her parents.

People not getting hurt.

Happiness around every corner.

Life would be one hundred times better like that. Wouldn't it?
