Mistakes

Chapter 7

The smell of oil and gas. That's all I could smell. However, that isn't what scared me—what scared me was the fact that I couldn't open my eyes. They felt so heavy, like the weight of a thousand tons was pushing on my eyes, and no matter how hard I tried, they wouldn't open. This lasted for what seemed like an eternity, unable to see and smelling such a potent smell that makes my stomach turn. I tried to move my hand, but a sharp, piercing pain shot through my hand and up my arm, stopping anymore movement—that when everything start to come into focus. I began to here muffled sounds that start to become clearer and clearer as time moved on. I cracked open my eyes, but only to be welcomed by a blurry fog—no matter how hard I tried to strain my eyes, they wouldn't focus. However, as the seconds tick by my hearing become clear and I'm able to make out a voice—a male voice.

"Oh God baby, I'm so sorry, oh God what have I done.' Baby? Why is this guy calling me baby? 'An ambulance is on the way Clary, just stay with me."

They know me. I think to myself. Thank the lord.

I try moving my other arm, but that's when I felt a heavy weight on it, I tried pulling my arm but there was no success. The man must of been able to make out my intentions because the next thing I know the weight is gone. Was he sitting on my hand? No, he surely would of known if he was sitting on my hand—I hope.

"Everything will be okay Clary, help is here baby." This time when I open my eyes, I can see everything. I see the continuously flashing red and blue lights from the police and ambulance vehicles, the car with a huge dent in the bumper and hood, and the boy knelling beside me, leaning over my body—Jace.

"Jace' I croak out 'Jace, what happened?" he looks away for a moment, the look of pain evident on his face.

"Jace, you have a cut on your head." I whisper, intending to brush my fingers near his cut with my good hand, but I don't have the energy—I feel so weak.

"Clary' Jace chokes out 'baby I'm so sorry." He went to touch my face but he was pulled back by a paramedic.

"Sir, you need to step away and go over to the farthest ambulance, they will help you with our injures there, I need to help this women." This didn't go over well with Jace. He kept arguing with the man, telling him that he wasn't going to leave me, but I was to tried to listen, all I wanted to do was sleep. I hear the yelling getting louder and look up to see Jace being pulled away by two police officers, with appears to be tears on his face. I want to tell him I'm okay, to make him feel better, but I can't, I just want to sleep. I close my eyes despite the people around me telling me to open them, to stay there. But I can't, the weight of a thousand tons fall on my eyes again, allowing me to do the one thing I what to do most right now, sleep.
