Broken Generation (Sequel to Don't Go)

Chapter 4

"I-I panicked, I didn't know what to do. I should've called them first but instead I called you. E-evan-" Josh cut himself off as he choked on a sob, bringing a bloody hand to his mouth to cover his sobs. I wanted to grab his shoulders and reassure him, but I was worried that I'd get blood over me.

"Hey it's okay, come on, follow me." I said softly, and despite the mess there would be, I gently grabbed his right hand, the hand not on his face, and tugged him towards the waiting room, once we'd get there I'd ask for a bathroom. Josh followed after me like a lost puppy, and I entered the hospital, flinching at the lights. It was rather dark outside, so the sudden white was rather blinding. I let my eyes adjust and instantly noticed all the stares upon me and Josh. Mainly Josh of course. I ignored the stares and grabbed his hand tighter, leading him up to the desk.

"Excuse me ma'am." I said, and she looked up, taking in the two of us. After a subtle moment of shock on her part- after looking at Josh- she focused on me.

"Soap and Water won't be able to help enough. Let me call some people up, they'll take care of him." She said and I nodded turning around.

"Just sit down in the chairs, don't worry about staining them. It'll be cleaned too." She said and I casted back a thank you before settling Josh into a seat, and now he was clutching my hand like a life line. He was quietly sobbing and rocking back and forth. I could only imagine what he felt like inside. He was close with Nicole, so it made sense, but this sense of emptiness in me confused me just enough to cut off the pain of what was happening.

"Hey, hey buddy." I said, crouching in front of him, not caring if the blood got on me anymore. He let his eyes travel to mine and I did the only thing I could think of to keep his head steady, I used my other hand to hold his chin gently as I stared at him. Others were probably going to assume we were together. They can get fucked.

"Hey buddy, you did just fine alright? She's gonna be okay. I promise." His chest and shoulders trembled as he held in his sobs and cries of pain, and I felt my own heart ache from the restraint. Josh closed his eyes, his tears cutting tracks in the flecks of dried blood. I let my hand on his chin drop and land against his knees, not even trying to pry his hand off mine. We stayed like that for god knows how long before someone gently shook my shoulder. I looked up to find a man in a typical doctors outfit.

"If you two will follow me we can get you guys cleaned up." He said softly, and I nodded before standing up, tugging Josh to his feet. Josh stood and swayed slightly, his cries had gone silent as the tears kept dripping. He followed as the doctor lead us away.

** Half An Hour Later **

We walked back to the ER waiting room and sat down, the chairs we had been in earlier were either taken away or cleaned. I made sure Josh was sitting down before walking up to the desk.

"We had a friend brought in, uh her name is Nicole... shows brought in about thirty five minutes ago." I said, trying to keep my voice steady. The woman nodded before looking at her computer, clacking away with her keys.

"She's not available for visits, but the doctors said they were able to stop the bleeding and get blood into her system, so right now they're giving her surgery. Other than that, she's stable." I felt my heart thud from relief. Almost instantly I wanted to fall to the ground and cry from relief, instead I nodded and thanked her before sitting besides Josh.

"She's alive." I whispered, and Josh broke down into sobs once more- and I cracked a smile, tears rolling down my cheeks.

** End Of Flashback **

I felt tears rolling down my face. I didn't even bother to clear them since there was nobody in the room with me. She has been in the coma for about three weeks. It felt so bad not knowing when she would ever open those beautiful hazel eyes. I couldn't believe it. The beautiful girl that worked at Hot Topic with me and was my friend tried to commit suicide. Right now I got no idea what the fuck is happening to her and I can't do anything to help her out.

"Why? W-Why did you try to kill yourself? Also over O-Oliver? Please wake up Nicole. I-I f-fucking love you." I said with a cracked voice. It was so hurtful to see her like this. There were stitches all over arms. It was just painful to see her sleeping looking all fragile.

Even if we had met not that long ago. I had immediately got attached to her since that morning I found her making pancakes. She was just amazing. I couldn't believe it that Oli caused her so much pain. I mean, she was perfect. Why would anybody want to cheat on her? I shook my head in disgrace as I also thought that not once he had come to check how she was. I guess some guys don't really care about what the fuck happens to their girls...

I couldn't stand it anymore. I didn't want to sit there one more minute and hear the same noise. I wish it could change. I wish it could go faster to give me any kind of sign that she would wake up soon. All I want is to her to wake up and to be happy again. I can't stand to hear the same goddamn sound over and over again.

beep... beep... beep...

** I hope you guys liked the chapter. The main purpose of this chapter was to give out the very important news. I think that now all of you guys know the truth of what really happened that night... I guess that Nicole didn't die after all. However everybody else believes she did. Oh, I feel so evil right now. Sorry for the plot twist. Feel free to give me any kind of advice **
