A/N: Ok so this is the 3rd freaking time I have had to start over on this freaking chapter and I seriously am so freaking pissed right now! This app keeps closing me out and I actually saved it this time, but the chapter was gone all together! I'm really frustrated right now so if this chapter is crappy I'm apologizing in advance! Love Tay💙
*Fast Forward 2 years*
*Emily's POV*
I hang up on Matt and speed home. I play with Addi for about 10 minutes and put her to bed because it is really late. I get in the shower and wash my hair with ocean breeze shampoo. Same old routine. lather, rinse, repeat. Then I wash my body with strawberry-kiwi, (don't judge it smells really good!) shave my legs and armpits, and finally I wash my face. after I soak for a couple of minutes I get out and wrap a towel around my body and dry off. After I have dried off enough as to where I am not dripping everywhere I brush my teeth with my blue toothbrush and put on my zebra print pajamas. I jump in bed "I love you Matt." I say then give Matt a small peck on the cheek and roll over. He does the same and I drift off.
I wake up in the waiting room for a hospital. Wait, what? Rewind. Yup I had it right I literally woke up in a chair that is in the waiting room of a hospital. I walk up to the front desk and before I can speak a young lady who looked to be about 25 looked up and says,
"Oh you woke up." she has the prettiest blue-green eyes that I have ever seen in my life, perfect teeth, and GORGEOUS, long, brown hair. "A young man told me to have you go to room 24 when you woke up. That's right this way." she then leads me to a door with the number 24 on it.
"If you need anything I will be right out here." she says and smiles
"Thank you" I say but nothing can prepare me for what I am about to see.
I look over at the bed and my worst nightmare has been confirmed as reality. Laying unconscious hooked up to about 15 cords is my father. I guess I forgot to mention I am VERY close to my dad most girls are a mommy's girl, but I am a daddy's girl and I always have been. I can't think of words to describe how I am feeling right now. The room is completely silent except for the beeping of the heart monitor. I walk over to the bed and grab my dads hand I start to cry and I cant stop.
"Emily. Wake up. EMILY!!!" that's when I wake up for real. "Sorry to wake you but you were crying and I thought it would be best to wake you up."
"No, its okay I'm glad you did."
"May I ask what happened and why you were crying?"
"I don't want to talk about is all I can manage to say."
"Okay I respect that."
"I am going to take a shower I need to clear my head"
"Okay."
With that I get up and get in the shower. I don't need to wash my hair or anything because I showered right before I went to bed. So I just kind of stand in the shower soaking for about 10 minutes when I hear Matt yell from the bedroom,
"Emily, your mom just called she wants you to call her immediately after you get out of the shower."
I get out and dry off. I get dressed slipping on my striped forever young T-Shirt with my dark skinny jeans and blue flats. I curl my hair and it looks super cute in perfect spiral curls!
Shit! I forgot I need to call my mom!
-Hey mom its me sorry I forgot to call you!
-Emily, please let me talk.
-Okay what did you need me to call you for?
-Can you meet me at the hospital in ten minutes, its your father?
-Oh my goodness I will see you then let me get Addi, pack the car and we will be on our way.
-Okay see you then love you
-Love you too mom!
With that I hang up. "Matt get Addi dressed and pack the car we are going to the hospital."
"What why?!? Are you okay?!?!"
"I'm fucking fine just do what I said I'll explain in the car!!!
He doesn't say anything else and does as he was told.
During the car ride I explain the situation and apologize for screaming at him.
"Oh my gosh I had no idea I am so sorry!" he says sympathetically.
"No I am sorry I had no right to flip out on you."
The rest of the car ride was silent other than the occasional mumble from Addi who is now 2.
W arrive at the hospital and I walk up to the front desk and I cant believe my eyes it is the same woman that was in my dream!
"I'm here to see my father his name is Andrew Jones."
"Ah yes that would be room 24. That's right this way."
Oh. My. God it's just like my dream. I open the door and my dad is there.
Except this time the woman says something else.
"The doctors said that there is no way he could live if we take him off of the life support. Please say your goodbyes and let me know when you are ready."
I can't say anything. I'm completely frozen, I can't move. It almost feels like I can't even breath.
Finally my mom says something, "They found a tumor attached to his brain and they couldn't get all of it without killing him. There was no way out either way it would have ended like this. The tumor caused brain cancer and it happened to be in the area that the brain works the heart and lungs."
I sit by his bed and hold his hand. "I'm sorry mom and Matt, but could I have a minute alone before you know..."
"Of course." They say in unison.
"I want to say one thing first. Andrew, I PROMISE you I will take care of Emily, I promise." Matt says he is starting to tear up. My mom hugs him and they exit the room leaving me alone with my dad's empty body.
Somehow I know what to say.
"I know I let you down sometimes... And I just want to say I'm really sorry. The doctors tell me you can't live without the life support and I have to be the one to tell them when to turn it off. I don't think I will be able to do it! You have been my best friend for 27 years and I don't know what else to say other than I will miss you so much I love you daddy." I was already crying before I even started but this was worse. I think I'm already loosing it because I felt my dad squeeze me hand. When I looked at him his eyes opened for a couple seconds for him to say, "I love you more Honey."
"I love you most Daddy." I cry harder at the childhood memory. Right before I fell asleep every night we would say those exact words and he would kiss my forehead right before I dozed off.
I immediately knew what I needed to do. I kissed his forehead and a tear lands on his face. Suddenly the consistent beeps of the heart monitor turned into one long beep.
I knew what that meant, but I just forced myself not to believe it.
"Dad? Dad! DAD!!!! No Daddy you can't be dead!!!" I scream.
That's when everything went black...
A/N: OMG I have tears streaming down my face after writing that. I felt bad that I haven't updated for what feels like eternity so I wanted to give you a long chapter. I'm so sorry that it's a sad chapter. Please Don't hate me! Love always Tay💙
