Chapter Four

"Ma...Mariah..."

"Oh my GOD!!!!!!!RAY!!!!!!!!" She bent over to hug then couldn't because the machines. "Ray I really want and need to talk to you, but I think it would be best if you went back to sleep. How do you feel anyways???" "I feel...ok...I guess...ok..actually...I feel worse then I've ever felt in my life. My side is killing me. My arm and foot are killing me and my head is pounding...I'm so weak that I couldn't stand up to save my life... but you know other then that I feel fine...Oh wait... is everyone else okay?"

"They're all fine... they've been worried sick about you...everyone has actually...Kai is the only one besides you who got hurt and compared to you he isn't hurt at all..."

"What do you mean by everyone's been worrying about me? And what happened to Kai?"

"Kai got fifteen stitches up his arm.Everyone is worried...as in, all of Byyaka(their home town), all the white tigers, bladebreakers, even the majestics, saint shields and all-stars have called to check on you...along with about a million fan girls..." she added with a smile. Ray laughed at that and went on, "You've been crying haven't you? I can tell just by looking at you. Why? I heard all those things you said when you were by the window. Did you mean it?" Mariah could tell Ray was uncomfortable asking the last part. Mariah was just about to answer, when the nurse walked in, "Oh good, you're awake...that means no visitors until we fully examine you. Out." She said. Mariah walked smiling back to the waiting room. "He's awake! He's okay!!" she said as soon as she walked into the room. The next few minutes were filled with, "I knew he could do it" "He sure is good at freaking people out though!" "Yeah go Ray!" and other things like that. Even in the room was smiling that is everyone, but Lee. Mariah guessed he was still mad about what had happened earlier. In a way she was mad at him too, for bugging her until he got the truth. But, really, why should he care that I have a thing for Ray, unless...no, it's not possible...she thought to her self , shaking her head.

Ray's POV

Flashback

"At this rate, we're going to miss the all you can eat buffet..." Tyson complained holding his stomach as if he was starving to death. Finally the traffic loosened and we starting moving through it. We drove for awhile. As we were driving through a busy intersection a large transport rammed into the side of the bus. I watched helplessly as metal and debris flew around. The transport had caused a large accident. It looked as at least five vehicles were involved. I watched a sharp piece of metal flying at Max and then Kai blocking him, allowing the metal to cut him badly up his arm. Something flew towards Tyson and he was looking the other way, towards Kai who was bleeding badly. I knew that if it hit Tyson on the back of the head it would probably kill him. I tried to warn him but he wouldn't listen. I jumped in front of him, blocking him with my own body from the debris. It hit me hard. I felt my wrist snap. I could tell it was broken. Another piece of debris was coming straight for us. I tried to move as Tyson had, milliseconds before. My foot got caught beneath a seat and it twisted. I fell to the ground of the bus and got hit on the side of the head. The world went dark.

End of Flashback

I sat now, wondering what at happened after that, I would have to ask Kenny, Tyson or Max about. I couldn't ask Kai, he was completely out of it after he got caught. He had lost a lot blood. I kept thinking about the accident when I suddenly thought of Mariah, her flowing, bright, lively, soft pink hair, her baby soft skin, her face, her determination, her beautiful smile, her glowing eyes, and then what I had heard her say earlier. She had said she couldn't live without me, that she... loved me. I wondered if it was possible, if she really loved me. I knew I loved her but did she really mean every word of what she had said. Or had I been delirious and only imagined that she had said that. I thought about it until, about fifteen minutes later, I realized how soft the bed was and fell asleep.

End of Chapter Four... Pathetic, isn't it...R&R
