Chapter 16: Alive

Anna POV

My eyes flutter open feeling fuzzy all over. A white light blinds me as my vision comes through. I feel a hand holding mine and I immediately squeeze it. Slowly, I turn my head, closing my eyes a moment, giving the hand another tight squeeze. I open my eyes feeling a squeeze back and that's when I meet Y/N's eyes.

"Kid," I whisper, my voice hoarse. She leans up in her chair and looks back and forth between my eyes, tears threatening her eyes. I go to sit up, wanting to comfort her but she immediately pushes my shoulders back, gently. I lay back down and look at her. She keeps her eyes on me as I do her. Neither one of us dared to pull our eyes off of each other, but at the same time I knew something was on her mind. Probably more than one.

"Wh-What the hell happened to you Anna?" Y/N asked, her voice low. I swallowed the salvia that built up in my mouth and closed my eyes. My mind took me back and I shook my head, opening my eyes.

"I'm okay. It was nothing," I told her. I look at her as she shakes her head from side to side. "Y/N, I swear. It's okay. I lost control of the wheel and I crashed."

"That's not what I heard from the doctors..." Her voice trailed off and I tilted my head. She took a moment studying my face before looking down at our locked hands. "I overheard them talking to Brittany earlier. They said the cops told them that you were on the phone and you had been crying...You were hit by another car Anna. They say it wasn't an accident."

"But it was...I remember spinning out-" Y/N shakes her head from side to side, picking up her head. I glance down to our hands as she lifts them up, placing her other hand on top of them. I look back to her eyes as she looks back into mine.

"Anna...I think it was Owen." My eyes widened and I looked away from the young girl. My eyes trailed over to the door where Wolf and Brittany stood talking to one another outside of the room. The door was closed but I could see them through the glass window. I take a minute and watch them before turning and looking back to Y/N. "I also remembered something..."

"Remember what?" I look back and forth between the girl's eyes, waiting patiently for her to tell me, but when she never responded, I reached over with my other hand and taking a hold of both of her hands, pulling out my one she's been holding. With that, I reach and pinch her chin gently, lifting up her head so our eyes locked. We stared into one another's eyes as I gave her a small nod and that's when she took a deep breath.

"When I was brought to the hospital and saw you...like this. I remembered that day. That you told me before you had left and crashed..." I closed my eyes and leaned my head back on the pillow. "He really...Really did that to me?" I go to speak, but pause a second. I'm not 100% sure what part she's talking about. That man had done an awful lot to her. So I bite my lip and open my eyes, looking at the girl.

"Kid, I know this is a big ask, but what exactly did you remember?" She dropped her head and I moved my hand off of her chin. I watched her, seeing her eyes closed. I felt tears well into mine seeing her own tears slowly slipping out.

"He h-hurt me...In a way no uncle should h-hurt his n-niece.." I closed my eyes, knowing now what she had remembered. The memory stirred back into my brain and I quickly opened my eyes, trying to rid myself of the memory. And with that, I slowly move over in the bed and pat the part next to me.

"Come on." Y/N picks up her head and looks at me to the spot next to her. "Y/N, come on. I don't bite." She looks back and forth a couple more times before glancing to the window. I follow her gaze seeing Wolf and Brittany now talking with a doctor. A soft sigh escapes my lips as I turn my head back to the young girl who stands from her chair and carefully crawls into the bed, laying beside me. I keep my arm wrapped around her, pulling her close. I can feel her tense as she lay against me, her head soon resting on my chest. I slowly begin to hum a melody, closing my eyes before words start escaping my lips.
