So this is very new! Some people may be confused as I am a major coira fan but since they introduced charriet I just couldn't help myself but fall in love with this odd pairing. Coira are still my number ones though so don't panic, I know where my loyalties lie! So I hope those who are charriet fans enjoy and maybe some new fans will be made, who knows?
This chapter is the first of many to come and is more like an introduction, hence why it's so short. The other chapters will be much bigger.
I awoke, awoke with nothing but darkness around me. Was this a dream? Was I in heaven? I soon figured i couldn't be as I heard the sounds of machines bleeping all around me. It took me a minute to take in my surroundings, it was still black but it seemed lighter than before. My foggy daydream was interrupted by the voice of a man, it was a few minutes before I was able to recognise the voice. It was him, Cain Dingle.
I can't believe my ears as I listen intently to him demanding the doctors to tell him something, anything. I'm just as much in the dark as him, if not more so. He seems so agitated, I can hear it in his desperate tone. I then hear footsteps of the doctor walking away, assuming that Cain went with him.
I was surprised when I felt the light touch of someone holding my hand, he was so gentle, I'd never really experienced this side of him before. I feel him kiss my forehead and whisper that everything will be fine. I wish I could answer, just be able to assure him that I'm fine. We only fought a few days ago, a stupid, meaningless argument where we both said things we didn't mean, I know that for certain now. He must have feelings for me otherwise why would he be here?
Another voice can be heard in the back ground, several intact. My ears adjust as I try to work out who they belong to. I can hear Laurel who despite almost ruining my relationship with Cain was one of my best friends. And then there it is, that distinct tone, Moira. I liked Moira, she was a lovely woman but as she got closer I feared as Cain still longingly had a tight but gentle grasp on my hand. I know Moira is the love of his life and it shocks me when he doesn't instantly move away from me.
It's strange but I can hear the awkward silence in the room, the elephant that hasn't been addressed.
As soon as I knew it, visitors once again had to leave. I hated it, I didn't like being on my own - not since Cain came along. I suppose I didn't like it much before either, I'd just gotten use to it. Nobody should have to get used to being alone.
As Cain kisses my forehead a final time I overhear his chat to my doctor, and I hear the words I've been fighting to hear. They are waking me up.
