Finding Myself

Awoken

Noah's POV:

As I open my eyes for the first time in a couple days I am met with my parents and sisters eyes. My eyes searched around the room looking for any signs as to where I was.

My mouth is dry, my eyes stung and I had a pounding headache. I reach up trying to stop it from pounding. As I make this movement. My mom comes over to me. "Hey Noah. How you feeling?" She says softly "um my head hurts really bad and my throat is dry" she nods "okay I'll be right back" she says then leaves the room. Leaving me confused as heck. I still had no idea where I was.

My eyes land in Taylor's and she looks like she's been crying "come here sis" I say softly. She makes her way to me but avoids my gaze. "Taylor? Can I ask you a question?" She nods "where am I and why am I here?" She looks up at me with a shocked look on her face. "You don't remember what happened?" I shake my head no.

At this point she looks concerned "Noah your in the hospital" she says slowly and stops to let me process this and I guess to see if anything comes back and look at her telling her to continue. "Well a couple days ago you got really sick and passed out. They said that you were dehydrated and hunger deprived and also a concussion from hitting your head" she explains but I still wondered how I got here as I live by myself.

"Okay but how did I even get here if I passed out" she seems surprised by my question but soon she calms down and sighs "I shouldn't be speaking her name with mom so close but Brianna brought you" I was confused by this statement but I let it go.

As she said her name my breath hitched and I went numb. But how did she know? How did she find me? I needed to talk to her. If she brought me here where was she now? These were all things that needed to be answered but I also didn't want to  pressure Taylor into telling me more. So I just decided to drop it for now. I'll call her later.

My mom comes back in with a nurse who had some medicine in her hands. She hands some pills over to me and some water. "Take these it will help with the headache" I nod as I take them barley making it go down my throat. I didn't even notice it hurt until now. "So today we're gonna turn off your feeding tube to see if you will eat some real food for us. Okay?" The nurse explains more to me about what happened.

I was completely shocked. I guess I hadn't noticed but I haven't been eating to well probably just a side effect of loosing her. But I still want to know what happened.

"Hey where's my phone? I want to call Brianna" as soon as her name left my lips my mom looked over at me she had this look in her eye making something seem off. She walks over to me "honey why don't you just rest for awhile. There's no reason to call that girl" the last part of that left my mom's mouth bitterly. I looked at her with a quirked eyebrow "um everything alright?" I said trying to get information put of her "yes everything is fine but I don't think you need your phone right now. You need to rest and try to eat" I sigh knowing I wasn't going to get answers.

About 30mins later the nurse brought me lunch to be honest I really didn't feel like eating and this hospital food didn't look appetizing. "Mom I'm not hungry" I said pushing the tray from me. She sighs "Noah you gotta at least try something" that's when an idea pops in my head.

"Okay but I don't want this crap will you go get me something from Wendy's?" She looks at me then nods "yeah I can do that. What do you want?" I tell her what I wanted then off she left. I looked at Taylor as she already had my phone in her hand walking over to me. "Make it quick" I nod thanking her.

I was about to dial her number when I hear a snore come from the other side of the room I turn my head and see my dad asleep. I guess that's why he's been so quiet.

I turn my head back to my phone and call her. I needed some answers.

Brianna's POV:

After I got home last night I couldn't sleep. The thought of Noah being on my mind. Is he okay? Has he woken up? I really wanted to talk to him or at least know if he's okay. But I knew I couldn't as of right now his whole family hates me.
