So here is the update that I promised. I did get reviews. Thank you everyone who did write one. Please review and I promise another chapter tomorrow.

No one's POV

They had all sat in the hospital room, silently. None of them looked at each other, none of them spoke. It was if they had detached themselves from the world; detached themselves from the situation.

"I think its time for you guys to leave. Go get something to eat, or go home to get some rest." Derek spoke low; barely hearable. Edwin sighed. He knew that his brother had done neither in hours.

"Not until you take your own advice." It was if Lizzie had heard him, or read his mind. Derek only sat; staring back at Casey. If something were to happen to her while he was gone, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself. He wouldn't be able to look at himself in the mirror; look at himself living life alone if it came to that.

Marti walked toward him and touched his shoulder.

"C'mon Smerek, Lizzie and Edwin will stay here with Casey. You need to at least get something to eat." He looked hesitantly at Marti and Lizzie and then back to Casey.

"Casey wouldn't want you to starve yourself if she was here. She would want you to live life; even if she's not here." Edwin began saying. He was whispering, knowing that speaking loudly would only upset his brother more.

Derek's eyes began tearing. He nodded, not speaking. He bent over and kissed Casey on the forehead before following Marti down to the Cafeteria.

Lizzie's POV

I watched as Derek bent down and kissed Casey on the forehead. I could have sworn I heard him whispering something to her, but I wasn't sure of it.

"Liz, what are we going to do?" Edwin's voice flooded in from behind her. I hadn't gotten up to acknowledge him being there. I sighed and got up from my seat. My breath quivered as I did.

"His soul is slo-"I slipped him into a hug. My eye spewed tears. I couldn't help it. I spent all those hours, trying so hard to keep it in; for Derek.

"Edwin, I need my older sister back; it's breaking my heart watching them both die inside. I can't take it." I cried.

"Shh, shh Lizzie; she'll be okay; she's going to come back, they both will." He held me in a hug, until I pulled back. I wiped the mascara that had run.

"I'll be right back. I can't take being here and I have to fix my makeup." Edwin nodded and took a seat next to Casey. I grabbed my bag and left, looking for the nearest bathroom I could use.

Derek's POV

I couldn't leave; how could I leave? 'What if Casey woke up and I wasn't there?' 'What if something bad happens and I can't say my goodbyes?' I tried to push the thoughts out of my head.

I was sitting at one of the hospital lunch tables, my head resting against my fist. I couldn't keep my head up and yet I didn't want to sleep.

"Here," Marti sat down across the table and handed me a sandwich. "Eat this." She set it down next to my arm.

"Smerek, she will wake up." I knew Marti was just saying that. Casey had been in a coma for 3 and half months. They say that people who are in those types of comas don't wake up. They don't wake up; they don't laugh again; they don't cry again. They just stay in eternal sleep.

"Don't you ever loose hope." She looked at me sternly. I knew that she meant well, but I was too tired listen. I closed my eyes, allowing the sounds of the cafeteria to put me to sleep.

Derek's POV

I felt someone violently shake my. My head slipped off of my arm and fell. I instantly jerked my head upward. My eyes met Marti's. They looked frantic. She was talking on her cell phone, speaking quickly and unclearly.

"Derek, wake up; something is happening to Casey." I jumped upward, grabbing her arm and running toward the elevator.

Minutes earlier

Edwin's POV

I retraced Casey's face with my eyes. Though I had seen her weeks ago, I hadn't actually looked at her. Lizzie was still in the bathroom; Derek and Marti were still in the lunch room.

Beep; beep; beep; beep. I looked around and toward the heart monitor.

I jumped up from the sudden noise. I ran out into the hallway trying to get anyone's attention.

"We need a doctor in here, now." Nurses began running into the room, readjusting her bed and checking her heart.

"She's going into cardiac arrest. Someone page the doctor and get a crash cart in here." 'No, no, no, this can't be happening." Shaking, I pulled my cell phone out of my pocket and proceeded to call Marti.

I impatiently waited. It rang once; and then again.

"Hello?" Her mouth sounded full.

"Marti, its Casey; she's going into Cardiac arrest." I heard Mari cough in the background. She began calling Derek's name.

"Okay, we're coming." She hung up. I looked over at the nurses. They had tried restarting her heart, just as they did only a couple of days ago.

'C'mon Casey wake up.' I hope and silently I prayed.

No ones POV

Derek ran into the room, pulling Marti along. The nurses had long been gone, saying that she was stable for now. He let go of Marti and made his way toward Casey's bedside.

He held her hand once more and sat there, staring at her.

Lizzie walked into the room, her face puffy, her eyes bloodshot. Edwin watched as she walked in, taking her place back next to her.

They all once more stared at the lifeless body.

Derek jumped up from where he was sitting.

"Guys did you see that?" He was pointing toward Casey. "She just moved' her eyes just moved." He began smiling. He grabbed a hold of her hand.

Lizzie studied her face.

"Derek, that's not funny; maybe you should get some rest."

"I swear to God, she just moved. Her eyes. Look at them." They waited once more.

Derek began squeezing Casey's hand, holding it delicately in hers. He held his breath. He knew that she moved; he knew it. Seconds passed. He began pulling away from her hand. That was it. He couldn't take that false hope.

Then it happened. He felt her hold him back. He felt her hand squeeze, holding his back.

Her eyes began opening slightly. She began to moan in pain. Marti let out a squeal. Lizzie and Edwin moved closer to her bed. None of them could believe it. She was waking up, actually waking up.

Casey opened her eyes and looked around the room. Her eyes traveled from Derek's, to Lizzie's, to Edwin's and finally to Marti's.

"Where am I?" She pulled her hand away from Derek's grip.

"Lizzie, who are these people? Who is he?" Lizzie looked at Derek.

The same thought traveled to each person as they looked on in awe to the awakened Casey.

'This could not be happening.'
