I open my eyes, and my whole body hurts, more than it hurt when I crashed into a car on my bike, more than It hurt when I got into my first fight with someone older than me, more than it hurt when I ran into a tree on a rope swing. I try lifting my head up but neck hurts far too much to even move. "What's going on?" I question into an empty room, with beeping noises. I use my arms to lift myself up and my vision un- blurs. I Notice I'm in a Hospital room and I'm hooked up to all kinds of tubes and monitors. I begin to pull the tubes out of my skin and rub the holes so they don't hurt as bad, I look around for my jeans and shirt so I don't have to wear a gown. There is no sight of them, but what I do see is my dad, outside. It's like he sees me out of the corner of his eye, because he comes running in and hugging me as if I was minutes away from death. I stand there with my arms at my side, when he lets go of me, and the waterworks begin. " Son, I've missed you." He tells me in between sobs. He finally stops and wipes his eyes, and forces a smile.

"What's going on?" I repeat, this time to him. He takes a deep breath then, looks at me and opens his mouth to say something and then doesn't. I roll my eyes and look at him, and when I almost repeat myself, but drop down to the ground and close my eyes, having flashes of images.

" I Don't love you.." She spits staring into my eyes. SCREEEECCCHHH. The sound of an ambulance echoing in the distance as my vision begins to blur. The last words I hear " Get him in, get him in, Sir can you hear me? Open your eyes sir." Then Black.

I open my eyes, still crouched on the ground as nurses rush in and my dad stands in the background.. "I'm Alright." I squeak out as the nurses seem to poke and prod me. They stop and I stand up, with the help of some nurses. I was in a car crash, or at least the car crashed into me. I hear screaming down the hallway and recognize the voice. Sam. I shove past the people in my way and run down to greet my little brother, now a sophomore since I started college. I run into a big bear hug and don't let go. His head up to my shoulders, seeming as if he's gotten taller from the last time iv'e seen him. " Hey Sammy."   I whisper and pull him out of the hug and take a look at him. The hoodie i gave him a few weeks ago is much dirtier than i thought it'd be. " Dude, i gave you that like two weeks ago, how in the hell is it that dirty?" I laugh, but his smile fades, and he looks down. " Dean.." He sighs and my dad walks up. " Sam, let me."

     I turn around and look at all of them like they're crazy. I laugh and look around. " Guys-" and doctor cuts me off. " You were in coma Dean, For a year." He blankly states. I open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. I feel dizzy. Coma? A year? My scholarship, my future career, my classes. Oh my god. I stumble backward and grab a hold of the counter behind me. I hear my name repeated a couple times but i don't listen. a year of my life has been striped away from me.. just like that. I missed my 19th birthday. I missed sam's 15th birthday. Does this mean he's a junior? My breath quickens and i look around the hospital. People rush around me, but i mutter a few " I'm Okay" 's and get back up on my feet. What will happen now?
