You can't do that! Gwen you have to wake up!

Kevin was on his way to the hospital. He wasn't sure how he was going to pull it off. Maybe he could just... take her from the hospital? No... no that would never work. He would only get into trouble and maybe not even be able to see Gwen anymore. He didn't want that to happen. Maybe, maybe he could get her to wake up by then. Maybe he could put all his will power into trying to get her to wake up. It always worked in the movies, so why not?

Ugh. What was he thinking? Of course that wouldn't work! This wasn't a movie. This was real life. He knew all to well that wishing got you know where. If wishing did work... then all those eye lashes he had found in his eye, those couple of birthday candles he had blown out, and those shooting stars he had seen his life time better start working now. He wished Gwen would wake up.

He walked into the hospital and didn't bother asking for a room number or anything, he knew where to go. He was there most everyday, even if he was only there for a few minutes, he was there. Kevin climbed into the elevator glad that it was unoccupied. The elevators were small as it was, he hated having to be in it with more than one other person. He actually preferred to be in the elevator alone... he didn't like when people tried to talk to them. It was like they thought it was there job to know why he was there, who he was visiting, how long they had been there what was wrong... god he couldn't STAND that. It was like an annoying little prick in the side.

He pushed his hands into his pockets and looked up at the familiar DING of the elevator when it stopped at his floor. He stepped out and brushed past some people heading down he guessed. Kevin walked down the halls, giving a nod to nurses who called to him. Kind of sad wasn't it? He had been here for long that people knew his name.

When got to the hall of Gwen's room, he was instantly halted to see Gwen's mother and father in the hall. Normally if there were here they were inside, beside Gwen... but now... something was wrong. Gwen's mother was crying, her father holding the woman close. When Mr. Tennyson saw Kevin, seemingly frozen in the hall he looked up. The well groomed man's eyes met the shaggy teens, and instantly Kevin thought he knew what was going on. But he wouldn't let himself assume anything. No. It was different, he was just thinking in the worse case scenarios. Mr. Tennyson leaned down and whispered something into his wife's ear, she peeked up and looked to Kevin then bowed her head and nodded, walking back into the room with her sleeping daughter.

"Kevin," Mr. Tennyson said, giving the boy a nod.

Kevin took a few steps forward, then leaned against the wall next to the man. He was quiet for a few moments, not sure if he wanted to know, not sure if he could bring himself to ask. Then, finally, "What's wrong?"

Gwen's father took a deep breath, his shoulders slouching as if he felt a great weight on his shoulders. His face was pale, his eyes red. He had been tearing up too. "Its...it's been months since the accident..." He started out, leaning against the wall, copying Kevin's posture. "She doesn't respond, she doesn't react. She hasn't moved, or woken up. Nothing. She's like a vegetable, Kevin." The boy stared forward, his jaw set, his fist tight. He was perfectly still waiting for what was to come. "They want to pull the plug." Tennyson finally said.

Kevin's fist drew itself up and he slammed into the wall, shouting, "They can't do that! If they do that she'll die!" He shouted, turning his wide eyed gaze on "She's not some vegetable! She's a human being! That's murder- they can't do that!" He started pacing, running his finger's back through his hair, cussing under his breath. Frank waited, he knew Kevin was just as crushed over this as the rest of them.

Kevin finally took a deep breath and stopped his reckless pacing. He shouldn't be so loud, this was a hospital after all. Hell, maybe he should be loud. Maybe that would wake her up. He sighed, leaning against the wall, his face contorted to frustration and pain. Frustration because he had caused this, pain because he was going to lose someone so important to him. "Does Ken know?" He asked quietly, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Not yet. We plan to tell him tonight." Frank said. Kevin looked up, then moved into the room.


Days passed. There wasn't long before they pulled her plug, before Gwen was taken away from him forever. Kevin was in the room with her, by himself. He was there everyday now. He looked tired, his hair looked unwashed and he hadn't shaven. "Gwen..." He muttered. He held her hand everyday, trying, pushing all of his will power into her. She had to wake up, he needed to get her to wake up. Maybe, for once in his life this would work like a movie. He would have a happy ending.

He peered at her face. She looked so peaceful. Her hair looked clean, her face the perfect mask of beauty it had always been. Her lips, pink, but her body... small, fragil, pale. Dead. His grip tightened around her hand. His eyes were tearing up as he leaned over the bed a bit and put her hand close to his face, both hands holding onto her. Holding on to what he had left. "Gwen..." He said again, shaking. "You... You know that people miss you, right?" He said. He was crying. Kevin Levin was actually crying. He never cried. He was too tough for that. But moments like this when it was just him and Gwen... he didn't mind to let it out. "There's your mom and dad, Ken. Max misses you, he's tried to get up. Ben's almost as big of a mess as me... but I guess he knows how to hold himself together better. He does that stupid thing where he picks on people, like he did when he was kid. You know, acting like nothing is wrong... Cooper visits you too. He cried the first time he came here. He's big. I mean it- you need to see it Gwen that kid really hit his growth spurt."

He sucked his breath, his shoulders shaking. "I-I'm falling apart." He muttered, his voice cracking slightly. "I-I'm a mess Gwen. I'm angry and I'm confused... frustrated. I did this to you. If I had been on time you wouldn't have been where you were... you would be okay. Gwen... I need you. I know I've said it before but I do. I'm scared, of what I'm becoming. I don't want to be a monster again. I need you here with me... but if you don't wake up they're going to kill you. Do you want that Gwen? Do you want them to kill you? You'll be leaving us all behind. Your family, me, Ben, cooper... come on Gwen. Please, something. Wake up. Move. Twist, take a yawn. Do something- I'm begging you!"

He was getting to the point where he might just break down. He couldn't lose her, he needed her, wanted her. He wanted to see her smile, to hear her laugh, to watch her kick some alien ass. He wanted things back to the way they used to be. He needed things to be that way again. He was starting to get to point where he showed no mercy... he was becoming a monster again. "Please Gwen... you need to wake up. I love you. I know I've never told you that before, I know I was stubborn about it, but I did like you. For a really long time I did. And now that you're not here I know I love you. Please... wake up."

He closed his eyes. It was useless. She wasn't responding. Then... something happened. Her fingers twitched. At first he wasn't sure, but he sprung his eyes open. It happened again. They twitched, then her hand tightened around his. She took a deep breath, her eyes slowly, ever so slowly starting to open. She was dazed, like a child opening their eyes for the first time.

Guess movie moments really did happen.

"Gwen?" Kevin said, straightening up. Her eyes were open- all the way. He could feel his breath deepen, his chest tighten. "D-D-DOCTOR! GET A DOCTOR IN HERE!" He shouted, they needed to see. He bent down, hearing the footsteps from the hall as they hurried towards the yelling.

"K...Kevin...?" She said quietly.

He nodded, the tears falling freely. "You're awake. Oh god Gwen you're awake...I love you. Oh god... Jesus!" He said, a real smile spreading on his lips. It was his first one in a while. It was his first smile, and it was meant for her.
