Wake Up Caroline
prologue
"Is she still unconscious?"
"Has been since they found her."
Shakes head and leans closer.
"Why'd she do it?"
"How the hell could I know? I don't know what goes on inside her mind."
"Sorry! I was just asking."
"She mentioned going for a run before she left. I never thought to ask where."
Places a comforting hand on her shoulder. "She'll be okay."
"Thank you, Richard. You'd better get going. Alex will be here soon."
Nods head, leaving the room slowly. "Natalee? Don't blame yourself."
"I'm not."
Shakes her head sadly as he walks out of the room. "Why'd you have to turn out to be such a stupid child?"
"You know it's told that people in comas can still hear you, Natalee."
"Alex, sweetheart when did you get here?"
"Just a few moments ago. How'd this happen?"
Takes a seat next to her, grabbing her hand.
"She was hanging around those stupid train tracks again. I got a call from Casey. She'd just seen her and she was evidently in a bad mood and Casey was worried. Why she was there in the first place, I don't know. Stupid child."
"Natalee, what is with you today?"
Grabs her coat and jumps out of her chair. "I have to go. I've seen enough of this place for one day. If she wakes, tell her she needs to do something about her hair."
Walks out of the room without even a look back."Hey baby, how're you doing? I'm sorry you had to hear that. You know how mothers get. Why don't you wake up and tell us what happened? We're... I'm really worried about you."
Gently kisses her temple before getting out of his chair.
"Please wake up, for me. Please do that for me."
Leaves the hospital room.
"Nurse Kanu, could you get me this patients chart? Ah, thank you."
"Let's see. Brain trauma, severe bruises, multiple flesh wounds. Keep an eye on her Kanu, make her as comfortable as a person in a coma can be. I hope to see you up and awake in a few hours miss Jackson."
Doctor leaves the room after handing the chart to the nurse.
"Looks like we'll be getting to know quite a lot about each other, won't we."
Nurse smiles sadly and pats her bruised hand.
"You'll get through this Caroline."

Yeah so... this is my new story. I don't know when I'll be updating but I'm glad you get to see the darkness inside of my head. (Note: that was most definitely sarcasm.) I, myself can relate to some of the subjects in this book (SOME! not all) and have gone through some of these things. I myself have not been in a coma, so I honestly don't know what it's like.
But I hope you like it. Just a reminder please no advertising on my books and if you see an error, kindly point it out to me, I will soon fix it.
Also I came up with this story completely by myself and anything that reminds you of another book or something, is completely coincidental. Just a warning there will be mild cursing in this book so if you are uncomfortable with that type of stuff, I suggest you suck it up.
But anyways, thank you for reading, I hope you like it.
