Hey hey hey guys, i just had to update, you see i just went and bought a MacBook Pro today so i just have to do everything on it and figured, updating would be awesome. Unfortunately the program that I use on my Mac, is pages and doesn't support the kind of file I need to update so I had to find out another way to update, which involved transferring the file to a flashdrive, then transferring it to my netbook to then upload the file to fanfiction. Sounds like alot of work right? Exactly. Which is why its taken so long to update it.

In response to my best reviewer Amy90: I fixed it. Well sort of, since it was never really broken

BEEP... BEEP…..BEEP…..BEEP

A small hand slipped into mine, the one that wasn't already occupied by a large warm, comforting hand that I could feel had been there for a long time.

"Do you think she'll ever wake up?"

"I hope so, I really do." I felt pressure from the large hand held in mine, "Come on sweetheart you have to wake up for me," I felt another slight pressure on my forehead and the comfort I felt at this moment left with the withdrawal of that hand.

.

"What the…? Nurse!" The hand went back to mine, once again calming what I now realized was my beating heart.

"Her heart monitor was going crazy."

"Hmm, seems like she did get excited for a moment, do you have any idea what may have caused it."

"No, I was just getting up to take my brothers home when it started beeping at me."

"Hmm, could you do me a favor sir, just come here for a second."

The moment his hand left mine, my heart started to beat faster again, his hand being placed back in mine calmed me down again.

"Seems like she wants you near her. Even if she is trapped in her own brain right now, she can still hear and feel what's going on around her."

"So does that mean that I can't ever leave?"

"Do you want to?"

"No."

"Then it's a moot point. Anyways according to the EKG her brain activity has picked up, according to the doctor she may wake up soon, wouldn't want to miss that right?"

His other hand moved to cup my hand as well, bringing it to his lips, "Please Claire, come back to me."

At that moment I wanted so badly to wake up, for him, just for him, but I couldn't, instead I fell back into the black, back into that dark blanket that took all of my senses from me.

Claire opened her eyes to bright sunlight and birds chirping, the sky was blue, with not a single wisp of a cloud to block its beauty, "Where am I?" She looked around to see a tall, thin man exuding power; he stood calmly a little ways from her. A woman stood behind him and behind her stood two figures that Claire couldn't make out.

She approached the group warily, wondering why there were here, why she was here, and where here was.

"Dean?" He didn't look away from her face, but gave the speaker a grunt of acknowledgement, "Have you eaten at all today?"

"I don't want to leave her side; they told me that she was so close that day, with the heart monitor, I just want to be here when she wakes up."

"But that was three days ago. She hasn't shown any improvement since then, you can leave her side for a moment to eat, she would want you to."

"She would want me to? I think she gave up the right on wanting when she wanted to die and landed herself here."

"But she did it to save you."

"In the end, yes, but not initially, initially she went out of some misguided guilt placed upon her by herself and Matt, when in fact the whole situation was out of her control."

"She was drunk when she drove them."

"Yes, she was, but that wasn't why the accident occurred, it only caused her getting lost, causing them to be at the wrong place at the wrong time when the truck hit them killing her and Matt's brothers."

"But it could still be considered her fault; it's why they issued her a ticket."

"Sure a ticket for a first time offender who drove under the influence getting into an accident caused by another driver who fell asleep at the wheel, rather than prosecuting her for manslaughter or even murder. Even the authorities knew she wasn't to blame."

Alice sighed, "I know, I would have told her all this myself if she had ever let me get close to her."

"Are you sure it was that she didn't let you or that you wouldn't approach her?"

"She didn't let me."

"Did you try?"

"I…Where is this even coming from, you didn't know her before a few weeks ago." Alice said beginning to get angry with him.

"Just…some things she mentioned and things I picked up while at school."

"What things?"

Just as he was about to do that she turned back to face him, "So…you'll go to school with me?" "Yeah, it could be fun." She threw her hands up in the air, "Yay! I'll go tell Sam and Adam!"

Claire waved as she walked away pulling Dean with her, "So what class do I have first?" "Oh, well I managed to talk them into letting you into all of my classes, so we have the same schedule."

She giggled, "Me too, but now that I have a friend here, I like it all the more," she whispered back.

Claire turned towards where the girl was pointing and widened her eyes, "Well see you later Claire."

"She felt like she had no friends at school. She practically begged me to come with her and arranged for me to have the same schedule as her. I was the only one around to defend her when Matt came to abuse her. She didn't have any friends there."

Alice went quiet, "We had a bit of a fall out back during our sophomore year, just kind of drifted apart, about six months later she got into the crash, and she missed a lot of school, by the time she got back, it was like we were never friends. I said a few words in passing, sorry about her brother, but never much more. Always telling myself that I would find time to talk to her again, but never taking the time. Then before I knew it a year had passed. We were acquaintances, occasionally talking when in the same class, but never even meeting the other's eyes outside of class. Then I learned about her parent's divorce which had happened not too long after her brother's death. At this time I thought that there was nothing I could do or say to affect that girl, she seemed happy enough, she had a boyfriend, someone that she had liked for a long time, she was on her way to college…but I never realized how truly dead inside she was, until you came along. When she first met you and your brothers it was subtle, but it was there, a change. The more time she spent with you guys the happier she became and this was real happiness, not the fake kind that I had mistaken for happiness, but genuine happiness."

Now that Alice's spiel was over she rested her hand on Dean's shoulder for just a moment before leaving.

Dean brushed a couple of strands of hair from Claire's face, resting his hand on her cheek, "If I meant so much to you why won't you wake up for me now?"

Her eyelids flickered for a second and Dean almost thought that it was trick of the light, but then she blinked her eyes open.
