Tell Me A Lie

Chapter 14

Adam P.O.V

   She is slowly recovering but its still 50/50." I took a deep breath. I thought the news was going to be terrible. "Can I see her please?" The doctor pointed down the hallway. I ran down there. I opened the door where she was and she was hooked up to a breathing thing and Kyle was in a chair holding his head up. He was mumbling to his self. "Kyle?" He looked up and rolled his eyes and looked back down. I didn't think much besides he could of stopped this. "IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!!!!!!!!!" I ran straight to him and picked him up as much as I could. His eyes filled with anger. "I WISH I COULD OF STOPPED IT!!!!!!!" We started to fight around the room and knocking stuff down. I finally punched him square in the jaw after 5 minutes. I was beaten up and bleeding. He had a scratch. That was it. I looked down as we sat across the room from each other. "Adam, I'm not going to contine this non-sense my sister has a 50% chance of living and we are fighting in the room she is laying in half dead in. I'm done with you so tell her if she wakes up sorry we aren't here." He walked out. I didn't get to say anything. He just walked out. I sat next to her side feeling her cold hands and pure white skin. I laid my head on his and said a few prays. I was stupid for letting her go.

   Kathy P.O.V

     I was in a white dress and in a white room. It had a little sign on it. I didn't want to read it just in case. I sat down and closed my eyes. Was this heaven? Was I really dead? I opened my eyes and I saw Lexi. I jumped up and ran into her arms. "Oh my god Lexi. I want to say I love and I don't know what to do. I'm lost." I felt tears on my cheeks. She moved me off and grabbed the wall and made a hole some how which confused me. I saw Adam laying over me sobbing. I went to touch him but it wouldn't let me. "Kathy it's not you time and I love you and I will miss you, but your needed their. Tommy, Adam, and Kyle need you. I will always be with you." She looked at Adam and I saw a tear fall from her eye which was a lot for her. "I'm letting you go. You have to be free and you have to let me go too." I looked at her and she had her eyes closed and her breathing was getting a little heavier. "Lexi, I can't." She looked over at me and even though tears filled her eyes anger filled her voice. "I'm not asking you I'm telling you damn it! Do you not think it's hard on me? Well it is and I am forcing myself to let you go or I wouldn't ever let you go. But I am doing this for Tommy. He looks up to you." I looked down at my feet. I felt her hand go under my chin. "Promise you won't ever forget me Lexi?" She smiled as she picked my head up. "Promise." She pulled me into a hug and I curled in her neck basically. She kissed my forehead and disappeared. My heart sank. Lexi was gone. I heard footsteps behind me so I thought it was Lexi but it wasn't.

   "Jake?" He was in all white and his eyes were bright blue now. He smiled and pulled me into a warm grip. I thought for a second. If Lexi made me let her go that meant Jake was here for the same reason. I shook my head. "Jake I won't ever be able to let you go. I won't!" He smiled and closed his eyes. "Your not the one who has to let go. You only needed to let go of Lexi, but I need you to be able to be happy again. I am telling you it's time to say goodbyes." He never liked goodbyes but this was the goodbye I would never forget. "Jake no, please I can't, I don't want to say goodbye not yet." He shook his head and pulled me into a kiss. I felt the warmth of his lips and I opened my eyes to see his eyes closed tightly but a tear managed to fall. He pulled off. "Goodbye Kathy. I love you and always will but it's time for are final goodbyes. No more see you laters because you won't see me later." I hugged him and he pulled me off. "Goodbye." I woke up. I was next to Adam just Jake. 

 All I thought of was Jake and Lexi. I kept my eyes shut. I pictured all the memories. Lexi and I playing in the backyard on 4th of July. We were so little and I was only 9 and we had our future planned. We would get jobs and move together. We acted like we were the reason the fireworks went off. I was holding her hand running through a corn field behind our house. We tripped and fell on our face but we laughed and looked up. ALl the fireworks started and we made a promise to never leave each other even in the worst times. We were so young.We didn't know. 

  I pictured me and Jake as kids acting like we were on the titanic and he said "If I was Jack I would kick her off the door." I laughed and we went to the park with the pond. It was winter and we thought the ice was thick enough to play on. So we stepped on it and we were about to run and I already did start then the ice cracked I was in the middle of the pound. I couldn't move. His eyes never left mine and he was scared more than anyone. "Kathy don't move." I felt the ice cracking but he stayed. "Jake go." He shook his head and took a step closer. I closed my eyes. "Jake I'm scared."  "Don't be I'm right here." I opened my eyes and saw him right in front of me. He grabbed my hand. I thought it was just a romantic moment but he pushed me away and fell through. I called 911. In minutes they had him out. We got home and sat on the couch. "So you would leave her?" He shook his head. "Not if she was you." We were only 11. I opened my eyes and Adam looked right at me. 

   "Kathy your okay!" I nodded as I saw Jake behind him. He smiled and I was about to smile back but then he disappeared like dust.
