Just so you guys know.... I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about coma's so if it all seems REALLY fake im sorry :)


It had almost been a week since the fire and Serena still laid peacefully in a coma whilst those close to her waited anxiously for her to wake from her slumber. Darien hadn't left her side since the doctor had given him the dreaded news. He had stood in the waiting room all night until a doctor had finally come out and explain her situation. Since then he had stuck to her like glue. Only leaving when the doctor's needed to do tests.

Dr Mizuno, Amy's mum would often send for food from the hospitals cafeteria just to insure that he'd eat. Over the time he had stayed there, he had taken a liking to the lasagne. Regardless of the fact that it looked just as horrible as any of the other food sold there.

And there he was again. Sitting by himself at a cold table eating a cheesy mess on a plastic plate while the doctors performed tests.

Mina stood at the cafeterias entrance and looked at him. He obviously hadn't had much sleep and his normally bright sapphire eyes were now dead and empty as he stared off into space. She sighed and made her way towards him. "How is she?" asked Mina, taking a seat opposite Darien.

"No change" he said, not even bothering to look up at her.

"Have you spoken to Raye yet?"

"No," he said simply, "and I don't want to either"

"You do realise that she has done absolutely nothing wrong"

"It's because of Raye that Serena is in this mess," he shot back, standing up and disposing of his rubbish in the bin and walking out, towards Serena's room.

Mina followed, "No, Its not and you know it. It's no ones fault, your just trying to shift the blame."

"Shift the blame?! Are you implying that the reason Serena is laying in that room right now is because of me?"

"C'mon Darien, you know that's not what I meant. What I'm trying to say is that blaming Raye wont do any good. Raye is dying inside; I mean her best friend is in a coma because she tried to save Raye, even thought she didn't need saving. Her brother; the most important person in her life, is blaming this whole fiasco on her because she didn't end up going to school which made Serena's attempt pointless and what's more is the fact that she is believing every word you have said to her and she thinks this IS all her fault."

His empty eyes filled with the sadness that was long over due and he turned to Mina, "I'm sorr-" he started

"I'm not the one you need to apologise to," she interjected

Before he could respond, Sam walked over.

"Wow Man, you look like crap!" he said

Darien attempted to smile but failed, "thanks," he murmured as he watched Mina glare at Sam for the comment.

Sam had come and visited Serena everyday. The two guys had put their differences aside and a small friendship was beginning to form.

"How is she today?" asked Sam, taking a glance over at Serena's door.

"Same as yesterday" Darien sighed, "Oh, uh Mina this Sam. One of Serena's old friends and Sam this is Mina."

"Hey Sweet Stuff" Sam grinned cockily at the blonde.

Mina rolled her eyes, "Sure…" she said, before turning to Darien, "Dare, I'm going to try and get Raye to come down. She hasn't seen Serena yet, so excuse me."

Sam watched as she walked down the corridor, he looked back at Darien and cocked his head towards the direction she had just left, "She single?" asked Sam

Darien just nodded in response.

"How does she manage that?"

Darien shrugged, "I guess turning down loser's like you"

Sam grinned at the insult as Mina came back and said that Raye was on her way. Just then, the doctors came out from performing the last of their tests. Darien walked over to talk to them.

"I'm sorry, what did you say?" asked Darien

"We wont be sire of what head trauma she has suffered until she wakes up, but she is stabilised and will wake up once the last of the drugs have worn off," repeated the doctor, before leaving Darien to go and see Serena.
