The Only Exception

Chapter 28:The Ending

We left the next morning. Tristan drove again. I sleep most of the way home. We ended up getting to my house around 4 in the afternoon. Tristan carried me in and laid me in bed and tucked me in. He left shortly after.

I slept all through the night. I woke up around 8 the next morning. I got dressed to go run. I needed to run. Running helps me clear my head and it relives stress.

I drove into town. I parked at some store. I got out and stretched. I put my earphones in and started playing my running playlist.

I was running all over town. I noticed a familiar car following me. I ran faster. The car started speeding up. I went for a dead sprint. The car kept speeding up. I tried to turn but the next thing I know I'm thrown up in the air. Everything went black.

The blood was pounding in my ears and it seems like everyone around me didn't know I was there, I could feel the glass in my back and cement below me. Everything I built up came crashing down around me.

I couldn't see or hear anything. Everything was burning and hurting. I couldn't cry. I had no control over anything. I felt people lifting me up. Next thing I know I'm in an ambulance. That was the last thing I remember.

I woke up. Bells ringing in my ear. A bright white light was the only thing I saw. Was I dying?. Things started to become clear again I was in a white room, there was a familiar man at the end of the room with a white cloak. I walked up to him. He knew who I was. He spoke my name, Aden. He told me he was awaiting this day. He told me my heart ache of many loves was over and I could live in peace.

Then crying came over his voice. Then I really woke up. My mom and Tristan were around me. I was in the hospitals I.C.U. I broke both legs. My right arm. My left elbow. All my ribs fractured. Jaw was busted and my nose broken.

I barely could breathe. They had tubes down my throat. I just thought to myself. I need to let myself go. I whispered to Tristan. I told him I loved him and held his hand. Well barely held his hand. He kissed my forehead. I closed my eyes and let go

I re-woke in the white room with the man in a white cloak. I could walk and move. I grabbed his hands and he took me to a everlasting peace. I left with the only exception of love. The love of my friends and family. Then the love of Tristan. This was the only exception.
