R&R or no more chapters if I get positive feedback I'll place another chapter
sooner rather than later. If I get negative feed-back I'll still place another
chapter only later down the road. Please take into consideration that this is my first
fanfiction and this is actually a revised version of a novel I'm writing. BTW this is
In Cye's POV.
It had all happened so fast. The sudden stop. The shards of flying glass.
The sounds of bones crunching, and worst of all...my scream. It split the air, making anything in it's way part until it reaching my own ears. I'd endured torture of a
thousand kinds, but it was nothing like this. This was a kind of pain that would
ruin lives, ruin my life. Yet, it was only there for a second. Then...of all things
I thought I would feel I felt nothing. It was as if I had instantly been transported
into a world where there was no life, no sound, no movement, that was my worst fear
I was dead. No that couldn't be I couldn't die like that! I just couldn't...then it
all just faded away.
"Doctor! he's waking up!" someone cried above me, I could just imagine a
cute nurse in a mini-skirt when I heard that voice.
"Oh is he now...Son? Are you awake?" I beleive it was the doctor that said
that.
"What? Yeah, I'm awake." That raspy grogy voice came from me.
"Tell me your name." the doctor ordered.
"Cye...I think, It might be Kento. No that's my best friend." I joked.
"Good I thought your head injuries were at a minimum!" the doctor seemed
ALL MOST happy. "Now do you know what happened to you?"
"I was driving along, and that's where I blacked out, all I can really
remember is glass, blood, and screams." I responded suddenly getting sad again.
"You were in a 6 car pile up, we're suprised you lived because your car
was completely totaled." the nurse whispered, wait it wasn't a nurse, that was
Mia. Now I felt bad about imagining her in a mini-skirt.
"Ouch, so how are you going to prove I'm not dead?" after I said that, it
struck me. I couldn't feel my legs. "I'm paralized." After those two painful words,
I let myself scream, I screamed as loud and as hard as I could. For as long as I
could before I started to cry.
"Yes Cye. You're paralized." Kento is crying too. I never thought of him
to cry before, he was always stronger than me. Now he had an advantage over me, I
bitterly thought, he could walk.
"Well damnit! Get me a wheel chair! I'm getting out of this bed, right now!"
No one moved, I also realized that I haven't seen anything yet. I was blind, the
glass, the blood. I now know why everything 'faded' out, I didn't pass out. I lost my vision!
"You're not supposed to get out of the bed." Rowen that was him all right.
He seemed pretty sad. I think he was remembering how we'd all fought too hard to let
one of us, me, be like this.
"I'm sorry guys." I hung my head.
"It's not your fault." Ryo, I think, put his hand on my sholder.
"I caused the accident though...didn't I?" This was strange I could have
sworn to it that I fell asleep and caused the accident.
"No you didn't cause the accident, it was a drunk driver that ran a red
light, he was in a eighteen wheeler." Sage whispered from where ever he was.
"God Sage I've never heard so many words out of your mouth!" Everyone
laughed at my lousy attempt to lighten the mood. "So, aside from being bed-ridden,
blind, paralized, probably extremely disfigured. What's my restriction on food?"
That truly made everyone laugh. "Guys! I'm serious I'm starving. I don't even know
what day it is!"
"It's been 24 hours since the crash, everyone one else, well they're dead."
Sage filled me in. "Except the person who caused this accident."
"I can't help but have a feeling you had something to do with this." I said
happily when in reality I should have told him I'd have rather died than live this
way. "Come on the food, and I don't want any lousy cafeteria food either! Go on
everyone go and get me some food!"
"All right we'll be back in a while, are you sure you don't want anyone to
stay with you?" Mia was asking.
"I'm blind and paralized how damn far do you think I can get?!" I found
myself extremely bitter when I said that. "Sorry, but I'd rather be alone for a
while so I can think okay? It's hard to think when I can hear each one of you
breath!"
"Let's go guys." Ryo removed his hand from my sholder and walked to the
door. "We'll be back."
"Famous last words." I'm not quite sure I thought that or said that but
everyone left regardless.
I lied to them, I was going to try to escape.
"Itai!" That would be me hitting the ground...Haha! They do have a
wheel chair, well at least that's what I think the big wheel is part of. 'I was
right' I was smugly thinking when I pulled myself into it. As I wheeled myself
to the window I was thinking about what I was supposed to do, I can't see anything
out of it so why should I bother. That I had to answer when I got there. I lifted
the window, and realized it was barred so the patients couldn't jump out and
kill themselves.
I don't know how long I sat there but it only seemed a few minutes, when
it must have been longer than that, because everyone filed back into the room.
"Cye we brought you some food." Kento said.
"Than let's dig in!!" Laughing as I turned around I wheeled myself over
to them. Everyone gasped when I stopped in front of the table, without bumping it.
"What never been able to see in the dark?" That joke sucked.
"No we thought you were still supposed to be in bed." Rowen explained.
"Forget that, I wanted some fresh air! Can you imagine being really hot
and stuffed in a room filled with smoke?" They weren't catching on, idiots.
"You mean you didn't want to kill yourself?" Ryo asked, no he was the
idiot, you don't ask a suicidal handicapped person whether they want to kill
themselves or not.
"Why would I want to do that? I have friends, and they were coming with
food!" I was starting to sound like Kento. Curse it all!
"All right, we weren't sure what you wanted. So..." Mia started.
"So you brought me a double cheeseburger with fries and a shake."
I finished for her. I was beginning to like these enhanced senses. Who
needed sight to enjoy what I liked anyway?! Haha! I was happier about this all
ready! "Don't gawk hand the food over!" That was when I grabbed the bag from her
I beleive this suprised her too. "Kento please tell my why you insist upon
onions on your burger? They reek!" With that I threw his burger at his general
direction.
"How'd you know where I was?" Kento asked bewildered.
"You were humming." was my cocky response. "Okay who has the shakes?"
"Here Cye." Ryo set a shake down.
"Straw?" I asked a little impatiently, I was rewarded! "Quit being so
depressed! You're making me sad!" I quirked an eyebrow. It was my eyes. How
could I be so stupid?! "Kento could I please borrow your sunglasses?"
Rewarded again! "I've always wanted to be allowed to wear these at night and
not look stupid! So when do I go home?"
"Tomorrow morning if you're up to it." Rowen FINALLY laughed, sincerely.
"Does my mom, sister, and brother-in-law know all about this?" I questioned.
"Yep they'll come down once you get back." Kento seemed really happy now.
"Cool!" I took my first bite of food. "I do suppose I get to go back to my old apartment right?"
"We had to move all your stuff to Mia's house." Ryo rested his hand on my
shoulder again.
I hate him, idiot. I hope you step on a sea urchin and you have to get your
foot amputated. I finished my meal in silence, then I pulled myself into my bed to
sleep. Everyone left while later and left me to think about what had happened.
That's it for now the next chapter will be about Cye going to Mia's house. PLEASE
