C POV
Five minuets, Five fucking minuets...
That's how long I've been stood outside Tabi's room, I can't bring myself to go in.
I feel a hand on my shoulder, I look around to see my mother standing next to me
"Would you like m to come in with you sweetheart?"
"Please if you wouldn't mind"
I take a deep breath as she pushes the door open, The room itself is very nice, Not your standard hospital room I made sure Tabi would have the best possible, She has her own private room with en suit, Plasma TV, ect, I don't really focus on the decor or the furniture, My eyes go to the only thing in the room that matters to me.
Tabi, She looks so small by herself in such a big bed, She's covered in foil blankets to keep her warm, She's got IV line attached to her aswell as various monitors heart rate, Temputure ect.
I let out a broken sob and walk over to her side, I sit down and take her left hand as her right its heavily bandaged, I feel a fresh lot of tears coming as I gaze at her, Her skin in still very pale and cold, Her beautiful lips are still a deathly blue.
"Oh Tabi" I choke as the tears spill over, My mother comes to my side and strokes her long fingers through my hair, I let go of Tabi's hand and wrap my arms around my mother and cling to her for dear life.
A couple of hours pass and there's still no change in Tabi's condition, She's still cold... The longer she stays like this the faster my hopes of her getting better fade.
It's now late afternoon when there's a small knock on the door, I lift my head to see my dad, Elliott and Mia standing in the door way
"Is it ok if we come in bro?" Elliott whispers and I nod, Elliott and Mia sit on the right side of Tabi while my father joins me
"Any news yet son?" My dad asks quietly as I shake my head
We sit in silence for a long while, Know one knows what to say or do, We just watch Tabi hoping, Praying for a miracle but so far non of my prayers have been answered
I wake to realise I'm alone in Tabi's room, It's dark outside, I check my Blackberry to see its gone 9 pm.
The door opens and Taylor enters carrying a bag
"Sir" He says when he see's I'm awake
"Taylor please call me Christian" I reply sounding very tired
"I brought you a change of clothes and Gail sent some food...Christian" He smiles as he sets the bags on the table and starts routing through one of them, He pulls out a container and fork and passes it to me, I open it and smile, Gail and her famous food.
"Mac and cheese" I smile at Taylor who simply smiles back
"Damn your woman's a good cook" I say as I finish the tub, I feel slightly better as I am no longer hungry.
"Has there been any change?" Taylor asks
"Not a thing" I sigh
"She'll get better, She's a strong woman" He says as he strokes her cold cheek
"I know, But she's so very impulsive, Why did she run? Why sit in a cemetery while its pissing down? She's stupid, So fucking stupid" I say as I lower my head on to her cold hand
"Christian, It's the way she's always been, Even when she was a child she would do something and not care for the consequences, She's reckless and impulsive but she's got a huge heart aswell, She's strong willed...Too strong willed to let this beat her, Just have a little faith" Taylor says as I look up at him, I nod in agreement I know he's right I just need to believe she will get through this and be ok.
We both turn our attention back to the ice-cold sleeping beauty on her bed who's captured my heart.
Taylor leaves an hour or so later, It's getting late and I know he felt torn between staying with Tabi or going home to Gail but in the end I ordered him to go, To see Gail and to get some sleep.
"Christian it's late" My mother says as she comes in
"I'm not leaving her mom so don't even bother trying to make me" I mumble half asleep resting my head on Tabi's bed, I turn to look at her and she's smirking at me?
"I prepared for something like this, Seems like Tabi isn't the only stubborn one in your relationship, Why do you think Tabi is in such a big bed? Taylor brought you some nightwear now get changed and get in to bed it's late" She says like I'm five again and it's passed my bed time.
I smile and get up out of the chair I feel like I've been sitting in for years, I give my mom, My absolutely wonderful thoughtful mother a kiss on her cheek and she smiles and leaves.
I change and crawl in to bed with Tabi, She feels so cold but I welcome just being next to her, I close my eyes and drift off praying that tomorrow is a better day.
