Not Alone

Liam

The doctor said that she will wake up soon. She was just hyperventilating and her cuts would heal. Corbyn and Daniel kept trying to call Jonah, but he wouldn't answer.

Soon everybody left the room, but Nick, Jojo, Zach and me. Nick was holding Alexis' right hand. He was really into this Dad thing.

"Please be ok. I only became a father today. I can't loose my only daughter now." Nick said and for the first time, I saw Nick cry.

It was a weird sight. He crying into her hand as he gripped it. Zach rubbed his back, but Zach was close to tears too. Jojo and I stood slightly next to each other with my arm over him, holding in our tears.

"Dad? Zach?" A quiet voice said. We all looked and it was Alexis.

"Lex!" Jojo yelled. Nick's tears flowed even more now as he kissed her on the head.

"You're ok!" I yelled.

I hugged her, but made sure not to too hard, so I don't hurt her. Jojo did the same. Zach stood there for a moment then hugged her.

"What happened?" Nick asked as he wiped away his tears.

"I can't tell you. I can't tell anyone what happened. They will hurt me again if I do." Alexis said as he held Nick's hand.

"Who is they?" I asked.

"I couldn't tell." Alexis said as she looked away.

"They can't hurt you again if you tell us, Lex." Jojo said and we all nodded in agreement.

"I want to go home." Alexis said, avoiding the question.

"I'll get the doctor." Zach said then ran out of the room. He came back seconds later with the doctor and Cenna behind him.

"Lexi, I was so worried. Come here, kid." Cenna said as he hugged her and sat beside Nick.

"You can leave, Alexis. We just need to get you back in your normal clothes and talk to some of your friends first." The doctors said and we nodded.
