Chapter Thirty-One

Luke's Point of View:

It was six in the morning, and I sat next to Vanessa's hospital bed. Visiting hours started at five, and I never understood why they started so early.

But I didn't care.

Even though I was incredibly tired, I forced myself out of bed and came to visit her. My mom understood why I was so upset, so she drove me here without arguing about how early it was.

I gently grabbed Nessa's hand, squeezing it gently.

"Hi beautiful," I spoke quietly. Tears welled up in my eyes, and I didn't even try to hold them back.

"I'm back." I choked out.

"I'm not sure if you can hear me, but I'm gonna say everything that's on my mind, okay?" I said, waiting for some kind of sign that she could hear me.

I never got one.

"This was supposed to be a surprise visit. I know you hate surprises, so that's what makes this funny. You would've been happy, yet pissed at the same time." I told her, feeling myself smile a little.

"I love you so much Nessa," I whispered. Leaning in, I pressed a long, lingering kiss to her forehead.

"I really want you to wake up," I cried, "Please wake up.."

She didn't move at all. I could hear her quiet breathing, so that showed that she was with me. I didn't know if she could hear me though. I wish I knew.

"I really hope you remember what happened when you wake up. I'm gonna find the piece of shit that did this to you and kick his or her ass. Even if it's a girl. The bitch will pay."

If Vanessa heard me right now, she'd tell me that fighting is stupid and that it doesn't solve anything. She would probably laugh and kiss me, like she always did before when fighting came into conversation.

I looked down at her lips. "I really wanna kiss you. And I really want you to kiss me back." I whispered, letting the tears fall onto her hospital bed.

"I hope you wake up before I have to leave next Friday. The doctors said you should wake up soon, I just wish it was now,"

Just as I was about to say something else, Ashton, Calum, Michael, Bethany, Addison, and Kendra walked into the room.

"Hey dude." Ashton attempted a smile. "how you holding up?"

"Not good." I mumbled.

Last night, I told the guys what happened. I'm assuming that they told their girlfriends, since they are standing in the room at the moment.

Bethany, Kendra, and Addison ran over to the other side of Vanessa's bed, gasping at the sight of her.

"Who the hell would do something like this?" Bethany choked out.

"It could've just been a break in? I don't know anyone who would want to do this to her." Addison sighed.

"That's fucked up," Michael commented.

"I wonder if she can hear us?" Kendra questioned.

I sighed. "I hope so, because I just spilled my heart to her before all of you came in." I shyly admitted.

"Aww," Bethany cooed.

I just blushed, and didn't say anything else.

Kendra sat down, and grabbed Vanessa's other hand. The others sat down too, on the other side of the bed.
