You're Different || Jimmy Darling

Chapter 40 Just Waiting To Explode

I almost fainted at the sight of my own blood on my hands. I threw the sheets off of me and my pj shorts were soaked along with the sheets that I had been sleeping on. Jimmy was snoring his head off, he was totally knocked out. I covered my mouth trying to resist the urge to scream at the bloody sight. I had no other choice than to wake Jimmy up, who in the world knows what the hell is wrong with me.

"Jimmy!" I said tapping his shoulder multiple times trying to wake him, I tried being nice about it but this was urgent.

"Whha? What? Darling is everything all- Holy shit!" He said as he began to open his eyes and see the bloody mess in our bed. His eyes drifted
toward my blood hands and shorts.

"Jimmy...I-I-I..." I stuttered speechless at the whole thing, I didn't have words I was still in shock as I just kinda sat in a little tiny puddle of my blood.

My dreams flashed before my eyes and everywhere seemed to hurt, A tear escaped my eye as I remembered the dreams. The bath of blood, the slits on my arms, everything just entered my mind and flew through. My head started to pound at the thought of everything.

"Don't cry darling, Im gonna go start up the car I need to get you to the hospital. Just stay there." Jimmy said running to slip on his shoes as he quickly changed out of his pjs. He ran out the door grabbing the keys.

I tried standing up and I looked in the mirror at my blood stained pjs. Just in the blink of an eye the memories and the nightmares flooded into my head again it was all too much for my mind, looking at the sight again I started to get dizzy and I found myself collapsing to the ground. I blacked out as I heard Jimmy's faint voice behind me...

☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼☼

I slowly opened my eyes, what the fuck, where am I? I was in a hospital bed with needles in my arm and a hospital gown on. How the hell did I even get here? My head was pounding and man did it hurt like hell. I looked around still pretty dizzy from before but what even happened? Why am I here?

My eyes caught sight of Jimmy sitting right by my side, I looked down and my hand was holding his glove covered one. His eyes lit up when I used what strength I could to squeeze his hand telling him Im awake. Thank god, I missed him so much, I was just so glad to be able to see his face.

"Mel? Baby thank god your ok! I thought I was gonna lose you...I thought you were..." Jimmy said wiping a tear from his eye with the back of his black mitten.

"Its ok...Im fine see." I said trying to sit up from my propped up position, it hurt too much so I decided to stop.

"Baby, Im just so glad your awake, you have no idea how worried I was. I haven't slept for hours. Ive been waiting for you to wake up, I wanted to be the first thing you saw. God how I missed you and your voice so much." I cracked a smile at how much he cared for me and how he didn't even sleep because of me, how he missed my voice.

"Baby, I missed you so much...Im scared how did I get here, what happened?" I asked still curious on how the hell I even got here, I could vaguely remember what happened. The last thing I remember was collapsing from the sight of so much blood...

Earlier that night
Jimmy's POV

I ran to the car and threw the keys into the ignition. So much was going through my mind, I just didn't wanna lose her, if I lost her then I would have lost everything I had.

I ran inside and Mel was passed out on the floor in her bloody shorts. I rushed over to her side kneeling down grabbing her in my arms.

"Mel! Mel baby!" I said shaking her in my arms so she could wake up.

A tear fell from my eyes and hit her cheek. My stomach was in knots, please tell me I didn't lose her. Just looking at her pale face made me believe even more that there wasn't any hope, that the love of my life vanished in the matter of seconds.

"Oh god...Mel baby I love you! Don't please don't do this, not now please. Don't leave me." I said begging like I didn't wanna believe that she could have been possibly dead.

I carried her bridal style to my car as tears filled my eyes. I laid her in the back seat not giving a fuck if my seats got stained. I grabbed my gloves and I drove with tears in my eyes to the hospital. I needed to save her, this is all my fault I shouldn't have left her alone! I killed her, if I was with her she probably wouldn't be passed out in my backseat right now. At every stop light I looked back to the see if she was ok, I had hope that maybe she would wake up.

I ran into the hospital holding her in my arms not caring if my shirt would get bloody, I promised her things would be ok and they clearly weren't. The nurses gave me looks and rushed over to help me but nothing would help how I felt, this is all my fault...

Melanie's POV

"Jimmy none of this was your fault. If anything its my fault for even bleeding on the sheets in the first place, actually its no ones fault because nobody couldn't help what the hell is wrong with me it just happened that I bled on the sheets." I said now that I was feeling a little better and stronger.

"It doesn't matter Mel, the point is I shouldn't have left you alone. I don't know what I would have done without out you, if they weren't able to save you. Im just so happy I get to hear your voice once more, get to hold your hand once more, to be able to see your beautiful eyes again, to kiss you lips one more time..." He said pecking me on the lips quickly then sitting back down in the chair he had pulled up next to the bed.

"I love you so much Jimmy, just never forget that." I said taking the strength the reach over to him and cupping his face as I slowly pressed my lips on his.

I pulled away and laid back down, I looked at our hands and gripped tighter as he smiled out of pure joy. I smiled back trying to make the best out of this whole mess, like I said Im a walking fucked up mess, just waiting to explode, kinda like a grenade. Im just lucky enough that I had Jimmy, he's the only one who was able to disarm the grenade when she was about to explode and that grenade was me, the bloody mess just waiting to explode.

The nurse came in interrupting our perfect moment as she came over to check my IV and the machine I was hooked up to that showed the beats of my heart.

"Oh sorry to interrupt but the doctor has gotten the results of the blood test we took earlier." She said checking the machine and writing down on the clip board she had in her hands.

"Is everything ok? When can I take her home? Im just eager to know what's wrong nurse." Jimmy said as he looked toward the nurse as he still held my hand.

"Well Ms. Melanie can you describe the symptoms you had before the incident? The doctor just wants to confirm the possible diagnosis's before jumping to the wrong conclusions." She asked totally ignoring Jimmy's questions.

"Um...well a couple weeks ago I got a stomach bug from some raw food, I was pretty sick for a week but I doubt that has anything to do with it. Im not sure if a lot of stress lately maybe led to this, there has been some things going on that have definitely put me under a lot of stress." I said trying to see where she was going with this.

"Ok, are you sure it wasn't just your period, I know some girls can be really late getting their periods at your age. Your 16 right?" The nurse suggested trying to gather more info so they could see what the hell was wrong with me.

"Yes, going on 17 soon and I'm pretty sure it couldn't have been, Im not one to usually bleed a lot when its that time of the month."

"So nurse what do you think it is?" I asked curiously again because I was dying to know what they could have possibly been thinking was wrong.

"Well that crosses off most of the diagnosis's." She said looking at my clipboard and writing down some notes.

"You mentioned a stomach virus from a couple weeks ago yes?" She asked.

"Yes, now nurse just please tell me what is wrong." I said trying to be calm, I was on the verge of panicking from the suspense she had us all under.

"There's only one explanation for your problem. I'm no doctor or anything but according to your blood results and what you described, its obvious that your...pregnant."
