Hey guys. Sorry its a bit late. I have so much to at the moment. Hope you like this chapter.
Charlie's hand had moved! She was sure of it. She grabbed his hand and stared intently at his face. Two minutes went by and Sam was starting to think that she had imagined it. Her heart had skipped a beat with a glimmer of hope, but now she couldn't be sure that he had moved. Just as Sam was turning away from Charlie to go and sit back down, one of his eye lids fluttered. She had definitely seen it this time!
"Charlie!" she whispered, "Charlie can you hear me?"
Charlie groaned quietly, "Sammmm?"
"Charlie!" Sam whispered urgently.
"Sam!" Charlie said, coming to his senses now.
"Charlie" sighed a relieved Sam, "Your back."
"Where've I been?" Replied a dazed Charlie.
"Away" Said Sam simply.
Sam thought she should probably go and get a doctor but she didn't want to leave Charlie, so she figured that she'd just shout. However as she called for a doctor Charlie face changed from one of confusion to one of pain.
"Charlie! What's wrong?"
"Why are you shouting?"
"Oh Charlie" Sam said whilst smiling.
They then stared at each other, not saying anything, just staring.
The Doctor then interrupt them, when he saw Charlie he made Sam leave the room and called in two more doctors. They kept Sam away for hours whilst they preformed numerous tests on Charlie, in which time Charlie parents had arrived and were waiting outside with Sam. Charlie's mum was looking very flustered and wouldn't stop pacing, whilst Charlie's dad just sat staring at his wife looking very anxious. Candace, Charlie's sister, arrived and was very excited. She bounced around the waiting room before being told to sit down by her father.
When the doctors finally said they could go back in Sam just wanted to run in and hurl herself at Charlie. But as she got up from her seat Candace rushed past her. Sam then looked up Charlie mum was already at the door and his dad was close behind. It was only then that she remembered; she wasn't part of Charlie's family, heck she wasn't even his girlfriend. So Sam just stood there staring at Charlie's door. Why was she here? Did she really love Charlie? She had never been round his house. She had never properly met his family. She had never even thought of him as her boyfriend.
But now Sam did think. She knew he loved her, and she knew her parents would approve of him, not that that had stopped her dating guys before but... But this was Charlie. Sweet, innocent, timid at times, Charlie. This was Charlie who really, really, needed her now. As if to prove that exact point, Charlie's dad stuck his head round the door and said.
"Sam are you coming? Charlie's waiting".
Sam just nodded, with a teary smile. Charlie's dad gave an understanding nod back.
As Sam walked towards the door, she thought about the way Charlie's dad had nodded at her. It was as if he knew everything that she had just been chasing round her head, and it was also the looks he gave her as he nodded. It was a look with love in his eyes. By the time Sam reached the door she was positively beaming, and she turned into the room her beam was met by an even bigger one from Charlie.
The next two hours were spent laughing and hugging. Sam sat one side of Charlie with her head resting slightly on his shoulder, whilst Charlie's mum held his other hand. Sam learnt that Charlie's dad was called Chris and his mum was called Emma. Sam really felt part of the family. She knew for certain then that Charlie was 'the one' for her. Not Craig or anybody else, just Charlie. So when the doctors came in and said that they had to leave for the night, Sam stayed behind. Charlie's mum had tried to stay as well, but she was persuaded away by Chris, who also gave Sam a knowing look.
"Charlie?" Sam said quietly, once Charlie's parents had left. "Can I ask you something?"
"'Course Sam, anything.", Charlie said whilst gazing into Sam's brown eyes and his heart beating out of his chest.
"Ummm... well... I'll understand if you don't want to but... Um... Do you...Do you maybe wanna um..." But suddenly they were interrupted by the doctor walking in.
"Come on Missy he needs his rest. You can see each other tomorrow"
"But cant it just..." Sam pleaded.
"No buts, out come on!" the doctor said sternly.
Sam walked dejectedly out the door. "See you tomorrow Charlie" she said whilst looking back.
"Bye!" he called back, his voice sounding as if he was feeling the same as her.
Sam walked out of the hospital feeling stupid. Why did she stutter and hesitate? Why didn't she just come out and say it? Now she couldn't ask Charlie until tomorrow, and he was being let out tomorrow so all his family were going to be around him.
"Arrrrgggghhh!" she screamed in frustration as she got in the car to drive home.
Meanwhile, the doctor had left Charlie's room and he was alone. Alone and left to ponder on what Sam was going to ask. He was so sure she was going to ask him out. He'd love that he really would. But there was a nagging thought that lingered in the back of his head as he fell asleep. Was he really good enough for Sam?
