Luke’s POV

Previously:
Once we had all our new stuff in our rooms I made sure Alice was in bed and then Kenza and I passed out almost immediately on our separate sides of the bed.

Now:
The next morning, I wake up to sniffling and heavy breathing, I’m confused on who or what is making the noises but then I remember that Kenza was here. Realizing that thought isn’t reassuring though. I gently moved to shake her shoulder to see what was wrong.

She moved around but she’s still sleeping. Why is she crying in her sleep? I wondered to myself.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrkFXx7uAN
I decide to let her sleep a little longer and call Puck about going to visit him soon.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48huHnZm88
I got out of bed to find my phone, it’s plugged in across the room, laying on the floor.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzPBhMxNR2
I first look at the time, it’s 9:13. Hopefully that’s not too early to call him.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2hM9CWIKh
I search his name and dial his number, he answers after a few rings.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2L72a4HHO
“Hello?” He asks, he doesn’t sound like he just woke up so that’s good.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBiW4hUwzn
“Hey, it’s Luke.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XWWl3lVwq
“Oh, hey! What’s up?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUApcBvmaC
“Just woke up, Kenza’s still sleeping.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuACfQ8TS3v
“Oh yeah, I almost forgot she was coming to stay with you. How’s that going?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPGQtviNn3
“Other than my parents being stupid, it’s good.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKFrAR2J1s
“What are your parents doing?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLdml39IrP
“Just being rude and won’t leave us alone about her being here. They’re being so mean to her and it just makes me so mad.” I confess to him.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsdd3LmcxD
“Man, that sucks.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ69woEe2eX
“Yeah, tell me about it.” I agree with him. “Do you think we could come to see you today and stay for a while?” I ask him. Not only would it be good for us to get away from my parents and let them cool down but also we could finally see Puck!
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IU1kaGSZf
“I mean I’m still in the hospital but sure! I would love for that.” He answers right away, with no hesitation.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVgnVf1UUC
“We’ll find somewhere to stay up there till you get out then. It will be good for the three of us to get away from my parents and to finally see you!” I say.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC4kSDq8uq
“Great! Dude, I can’t wait to see you guys!” Puck says.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJH1jgPDYw
“I know right! Do you think you’ll be getting out soon?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvmushg96S
“I honestly have no clue! They haven’t really told me anything, I barely even saw any nurses yesterday let alone my doctor.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKmJBfKiCJ
“Wow. I hope you get out soon, then we could all do something other than sit in a hospital room, I think we’re all tired of that.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxpUOU8psj
“You can say that again.” He says, agreeing with me. “Oh you guys can also meet Peter and Will!”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDcVeYiUm8
Peter and Will? I don’t remember anyone by those names. Maybe he’s talking about his nurses. Oh..wait..he could be talking about his other friends. I feel dumb for even thinking they could be nurses, they had to be some friends he had before he went into the coma. “Peter and Will?” I ask just to be sure.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OodK3oTvS
“They were friends I had in before the coma but in the coma I thought we had gone our separate ways but apparently that didn’t happen. We hung out for a while yesterday and caught up, they’re really cool. You guys will like them.” So I was right about the friends thing.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dK1ggitpS
“Then I can’t wait to meet them.” I say and I really meant it. Puck knows us really well and if he says we’ll like them I’m sure we will.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEsQVcYXHF
Kenza then starts moving around and making noises in her sleep, I get up and go over to see if she’s okay. She’s crying again and I want to comfort her but I don’t know if I should wake her up or if I should let her sleep.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgHlN8GMqD
I decide waking her up is probably the better option. “Hey, Puck. I’m gunna go. Kenza’s waking up and I think she’s crying. I’ll call you again later and we can make plans to come to see you.” I hurry up and say.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4ygsF1eST
“Alright. Talk to you later, Luke.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKy56XU82N
“Bye, Dude.” I say as I hang up. I set my phone down on my night stand, then reach over and shake Kenza’s shoulder to wake her. “Kenza. Kenza you need to get up. Kenza.” I say softly but loud enough to wake her.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3sxqck2qA
It’s a few seconds later before she actually wakes up. “Luke?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLqgYw7ay2
“Yeah, it’s me. You were crying, I didn’t know what to do so I woke you up.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AaCSKE1vI
“Sorry, it’s just…” She couldn’t finish before she starts crying again, covering her face to hide it from me.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvXY0LAhTn
“Hey, what’s wrong?” I ask her, pulling her hands away from her face. She lets me and looks at me with a sad face.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrleI7YXQBZ
“M-my p-parents.” She says, bursting into sobs. I instantly pulled her in to my arms, hugging her. She wrappes her arms around me and sobs into my shoulder. I just let her while I hold her in my arms and stroke her hair.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46zitGedlD
We sat like that for a long time just hugging each other, Kenza crying, and me comforting her.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnc4TGEArp
After a long while when she was just sniffling, she pulled away and mumbled something I couldn’t hear.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRqCfavZRg
“What’d you say?” I ask gently.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPqdJFp2vj
“S-s-sorry, I’m s-such a m-mess.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwIjeZMuqM
“Hey, don’t be sorry. If you need to cry then cry and I will be here for you for whatever you need.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUai9ftSvJ
“Luke…..” She doesn’t finish but instead pulls me into a tight hug and whispers, “Thank you.” in my ear.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3RabjAwtp
“I’m always here for you.” I assure her. “On a happier note, we’re gunna go up to where Puck is and stay there for a while.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFhm1562Zt
“Really? When?” She asks excitedly.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTz01BDg3M
“As soon as we’re all ready to go! The only bad part is that I’ll have to bring Alice back before we come back because she has school.” I just realized that I would have to bring Alice back today and then hopefully I could get her up there for as many weekends as we’re going to stay there.
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tcGt0uzz2
“Oh yeah, I forgot she’s in school since we haven’t been going.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEuNou67zJ
“Me too. And it’s sunday, I’m gunna have to either wait till next weekend to take her or just take her and bring her back today.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDlAwqftbB
“You should probably wait till next weekend. It would be better. But there’s only one problem, you guys only have one car, how are you going to drive her back and forth if you can’t take their car?”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPduHEnnH7X
“Shit, Kenza you’re right. And it’s not like I can afford to buy a car or anything like that.” How am I going to do this? I guess the only way to figure something out would be to have a talk with parents about it. “The only thing I can do is talk to my parents and see what we can work out. As much as I dread doing it it’s the only option we have.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgFNDQn2P5
“Ugg, this sucks. Can’t we just go back to being in the coma? Life seemed so much easier and better there.”
904Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8C5UmmpFm
“I wish we could.” I agree with her. And it was true, even though my parents were dead it was so much better than how my life is now. If I could go back I would.
