the one that got away. J.M3

chapter two.

i'm not sure what hit me when i first gained consciousness but it felt strange. i pulled my eyes open only to be greater with the white walls of a hospital room.

i looked beside me to see y/n. she was crying. i'm not sure why.

i'm awake aren't i. why isn't she happy. jumping with joy? wrapping her arms around me. can she not see me. is this all just a dream.

i pulled myself upright and pulled my legs off the hospital bed. but i didn't realise anything was truly wrong until i stood up. when i noticed my body was in the same position as if i has never left.

"jaeden, please just wake up. please."

i am awake though. "y/n i am here. why can't you see me? why can you see that."

am i just gonna have to spend the rest of my life like this. incapable of seeing or communicating with my love ones? only for them to walk through me as if it's nothing.

after minutes of endless trying to get her attention i sat beside my body on the bed. i looked pretty beat up. multiple injuries on the head and a broken arm. wow the first time i've ever broken a bone, i guess there's a first for everything. what a way to break it though. i can't even exactly remember.

i turned my attention to the door as it opened widely. voices filled the room and two doctors had entered.

"Dr.Kingsman is there any upgrades on how he's going?"

"Well, we know he is conscious somehow, but there's something stopping him from coming back completely. we think there's not long yet."

i watched y/n shrug then look back at her phone, she clicked a couple of buttons so i can only assume she messaged someone. maybe everyone else. maybe my mother.

not long yet.

holy shit. am i about to die. is this it for me. jaeden martell teen actor dies before he even gets to start life.

i can't believe this. but there has to be a way to get out.

walking towards y/n i placed a kiss on her cheek before i turned and left the room. i don't know if she left it but i'll never know.

walking into the hallway i was alarmed by the busyness from around me. what was i going to do. how the hell was i going to try and get my body back.

i found the exit and rushed towards it, well more so through it. it'd be able to get out of this wouldnt i.

who do i go to. who do i ask. i'm all. alone.

leaving the hospital i began to follow the road home, well what was my home at least. maybe i could find the place i got hit. maybe that could help me. i found the crossing. blood stained the ground and there was a shrine.

that couldn't possibly all be for me.

i was mistaken because it was. many pictures of me, many bears, many flowers. but i couldn't help my stare at one particular bunch of flowers.

the ones i brought her. the ones i was holding.

reaching out to pick it up my hands went through, i don't really know what i expected, "fuck!"

"Oh isn't it Jaeden Wesley," Someone muttered. I turned around. A women who i feel like i've seen before. she was young, blonde hair cut to the shoulders, olive skin. though she looked pretty beat up too.

i stepped forward towards her, "can you see me?"

"of course i can, don't tell me you've forgetten who i am. oh if you have my heart is wounded. i thought you'd never forget your favourite mother's group friend." she dramatically said.

i stared at her in confusion my brain struggling to even comprehend that someone could see me, let alone hear me. holding her hand out i took it and shook it, "devan. devan radei."

though once again nothing hit my brain, who was this girl standing before me and why was she so positive she knew me well, "i can't remember who you are?"

"do you trust me to share memories? cause i will need your trust then you'll remember me."

"i suppose."

the girl handed me a tablet from her pocket. "trust me on this, you'll remember everything. it's nothing bad. something i got from the others on my way down."

she handed to me and i hesitated before taking it. but once i did memories unimaginable started filling in. i did know who she was. but why was it completely gone from my memory.

"why are you here with me devan, you died many years ago."

"cause someone told me you got in a car crash, and then they thought to send me down straight away. there's a thin line between death and life for you right now. what you chose depends on what path you want me to help you take."

"i want to be alive. i can't leave her."

she rolled her eyes, "that's not how it works here jaeden."
