Part 28
The car sped up fast and the trickling rain became harder and faster. I could barely see ahead of us and im sure Paul was no different.
"PAUL!! SLOW DOWN!" i cried loudly but he didnt slow down. In fact he went even faster. The next thing i remember was the car losing grip of the road and going into a spin. we hit something and the car turned over, i felt my head come in contact with something and i blacked out to the sound on my name being weakly called.
I lay in a hospital bed with my eyes closed. I wanted to open them and tell everyone i was ok but i couldnt. I could listen to everything that was going on, i could think about my pain but i couldnt move, i couldnt do anything. My parents talked about Paul. He was ok... stayed in hospital for a few days but was sent home to rest. Richard came to visit me and i already felt stronger with one of my best friends standing by me. Tim brought in chocolates and flowers... he ate the chocolates because he figured i wouldnt be able to. Cathy told me about everything going on at school. But Paul never came to see me. Even if he did i didnt know it.
It had been about 2 weeks since the accident and i was still in what was said to be a deep sleep, rather than a coma. Richard sat by my bed whenever he could talking about everything. In fact he talked so much that i had to tell him to shut up... by opening my eyes. He was extatic that he had been there to see me wake up. He kissed me and hugged me gently and we talked a bit before he alerted the nurses. It felt great to be back... sort of.
A few weeks later i was back at home in bed resting. I refused to talk to anyone but Richard. My parents were getting worried about me but i just didnt care. What had i done.. i mean i screwed up the best thing in my life... the only real good thing other than having Rich for a friend.... of course i did talk to Tim a little but not alot.
About a week after i was allowed to go home from hospital something.. happened... It was about midnight and i heard something outside my window so i decided to investigate...
Painfully i got out of bed and peered out my open window... i couldnt believe it.
