Chapter 16
Avery's Pov
"Kohl! Kohl no don't! Keep your eyes open!" I holler as Kohl slowly shuts his eyes. I hear sirens blaring from upstairs and starting helping for help.
"Help! We need a paramedic down here!" I shout. Finally, two middle aged men come down stairs it's a stretcher.
"What happened?" On asked
"He's been beaten badly and stabbed," I say as the rush around Kohl, untying him and getting him on the stretcher.
"One teenaged male, stabbed and losing blood. Heading to the emergency room now," the other guy says into his radio. They get Kohl upstairs and in the ambulance, and I jump in the back with him.
"Kohl please don't leave me. I need you," I whisper taking his hand in mine as they put temporary bandages on him to stop the blood flow.
Soon enough, we get to the hospital and they rush him into a room that I'm shut out of. I slump against the wall, and bring my knees up to my chest, resting my head on them, balling my eyes out.
Why Kohl? Why him? All he's ever done is protect the ones he loves. He can't die, he just can't. I know everyone sees him as a monster, but he's such a genuinely nice guy. People have been too quick to judge him just because of his father, and what he does to support his family. All they see, is Kohl Black that town bad boy, the street fighter. What they don't see is the Kohl I know. The Kohl that would do anything to make sure his brother and sister are safe, the Kohl that risked his life to make sure his brother and sister would go unharmed.
A nurse walks over and sits down beside me.
"What happened hun?" She asks
"My boyfriend, he was b-beaten and s-stabbed," I stutter out
"Oh sweetie, I'm sorry," she says wrapping an arm around me
"Do you think h-he'll make it?" I ask
"Of course he will. He's Kohl Black for Pete's sake," she smiles trying to cheer me up.
"Did you know him?" I asked
"Yes I did. I grew up with his father actually. Just like Kohl, he was the town bad boy. Everyone thought he was dangerous, that he was a monster, but he wasn't really like that. He was a sweet, kind and caring man. The version of Kohl's father that I knew, would do anything to protect the ones he loved, and if it meant beating a guy into a pulp, he would. That's why many people saw him as a danger, but he really wasn't. When Lydia cheated on him however, I saw something in side him flip. Almost as if there was this switch inside him that flicked off. I see a lot of him inside Kohl. The drive, the passion, the fight, the strength, the love, the protectiveness. Everything Kohl is, is what his father used to be. Now, I'm not saying Kohl will turn out like his father. That would take a lot for Kohl to become like him, but sometimes Kohl gets carried away, and I can see you're a good thing for him. He loves you, he will always fight for you. Don't let something doubt his love for you, because it's strong." She said "he will be okay hun, you just have to believe in him," she smiled
"Thank you....."
"Lisa," she smiled
"Thank you for that Lisa, it means a lot," I smiled at her
"Don't worry about it. Get one of the nurses to page me when he wakes up," she said standing up to walk away.
"I will, thanks," I smiled
I sat there for about another 10 minutes, before I heard a loud group of people clambering down the hall. Looking up, I saw Leo, Jace, Andrew, Josh, Sam and Kyleigh. I stood up, and Sam and Kyleigh crashed I to my body.
"Will he be okay?" Kyleigh asked, her bottom lip quivering and tears threatening to spill from her eyes.
"I don't know Kyls, I don't know," I whispered, a new set of tears threatening to fall from my eyes.
I look up teary eyed, only to meet the teary eyes of my brothers and best friend. This is not what should have happened. He shouldn't be on his death bed. We should have gotten there sooner, we could have done something. This is all our fault.
It's all my fault.
I hand the twins over to Andrew, and wrap my arms around my self. The tears I held back fell down my cheeks. Josh immediately wrapped his arms around my quivering body.
"It's all my fault. I could have gotten there sooner or done something before we did. It's all my fault," I whispered
"No Avery it's not your fault. He's going to be okay," Josh said
"But what if he's not. What if he isn't going to be okay?" I asked
"Nothing is ever okay Avery, we just make it seem like we're okay," he sighed
I continued to shake and cry in Josh's arms, and even felt a few of his tears hit the top of my head. After what felt like hours, a nurse emerged into the waiting room.
"Kohl Black's family?" We all stood up.
"Is he going to be okay?" I asked hurriedly
"He's...."
