Waking Up
I feel a slight pain in my side. Trying to look around me even though it was very painful. I see I’m in a room a very dark one. It’s hard to see, but I make out a figure standing next to me. When my eyes adjust it was clearer to see. A man looking to be in his twenties was looking down at me with his beautiful brown eyes. He had short brown hair that looked messed up. I see this man start to cry when he starts saying my name over and over again.
“Don’t leave me please, not this time please....please don’t leave me” is all I heard from his voice before everything became silent again. I hear a familiar voice from afar. Trying to walk towards the voice I fall only to try and get back up I fall repeatedly over and over again. Looking around frantically I start to scream not knowing what is happening. I just scream hoping it will all go away. I feel someone shaking me. I wake up in a cold sweat seeing a set of familiar eyes looking at me.
“Are you ok” is all he said. I managed to nod at his question not knowing what else to do since I’m not really in a talking mood after what I just saw and felt. I try sitting up only to figure out I can’t move. Looking around the room, I look over to my right and see a needle in my arm. I can’t feel anything and I can’t move anything except my hazel eyes. I look back at the man sitting in a chair next to me.
“Are you sure you’re ok” I hear him ask me. Only to feel something hot roll down my cheek. Am I crying, why I don’t even remember anything so why am I crying? The man quickly gets up and hugs me. I wince in pain as he gets off of me.
“I’m sorry,” the man says choking back tears. I try to sit up only instead I feel myself getting up out of bed. I’m walking towards the crying man only to hug him. Telling him it’s ok. Why am I hugging this stranger and why does he care about me, and where am I at that? I look up at the man’s brown eyes.
“I knew you would wake up soon.” He says with a faint smile, but all I can say is who are you and where am I. Apparently I’m in a hospital because of a car accident. This man holding me is known as James. What I still don’t get is how all this happen and also who am I. James lets me go only for me to start crying. I feel more hot tears roll down my face. I’m crying again when I still don’t know what’s happening. Maybe I do know, but just not embracing that I do. Telling myself that only confused me more than anyone else could. I feel James cup my cheek with his hand as he whispers in my ear.
“Thank god you’re ok, I thought I was going to lose you forever” he spoke quietly. More of these things you call tears roll down my face only for me to break down crying. Falling to the floor holding my knees. I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. Looking up I see a hand holding out to me. I reach for the hand while I shake with fear. Pulling me into his arms while I sob quietly.
