Okay guys! Sorry for the last chapter's cliff hanger. But here it is! I hope that I didn't get any people hating me after last week's chapter…
Okay. Chapter 6: Wide Awake
Tori p.o.v.
It seems like forever after I wake up. My head still hurts… I open my eyes and the lights are not as bad as last time. I squint my eyes to try and see well. Shit, my head. I look down and see a head of black hair and green highlights. She's crying…? How long have I've been out…?
"J-Jade", I muster right above a whisper. Her reaction is instantaneous. Her face, puffy and red with tears looks at mine and she starts crying again- histeriously. She jumps over me, hugging me tightly. "T-Tori!" she cried into my shoulder. I winced at how loud it was but I was happy she was here when I woke up. My throat hurts but I don't care. "I- I – I am so s-sorry! I thought I l-lost you!" she cried.
I groan, trying to get her attention. It worked because the moment I did it, she looked at me and I whisper "water." And just like that, she's off of me and brings me a pink cup with a clear straw on it. She puts it close to my mouth and I sip from it, the cool water making me feel better. She placed the cup on the table by my bed and sat down next to me, on my bed. She brushed a few hairs off my face before she started crying again, softer this time. I reach up- it hurts like hell- and I wipe away a few tears.
"You… you were out for about eight days.. and the doctors said that they did their best… but they weren't sure you were going to wake up…", she told me, choking on her words. I cry a few tears too- I guess I really scared her. "I tried to think of a day without you, Tori, and it just… hurt so much… I am so…so sorry…", she sobbed. "I love you so much, Tori Vega, and when I think of my future, you're in it, and for a moment, I thought you were gone and it just hurt so fucking much…", she hugged me now. She whimpered in my ear and kissed my cheek.
"I love you too, Jade", I whisper. She turns her head around and softly kisses my lips. "Marry me".

Jade p.o.v.
My head is spinning- she was gone and now she's back. All I know is that I can't possibly live without her. This last year of my life has been amazing… graduation is in two months, and I'm so dependent of Tori, it scares me. When she wasn't waking up, I literally thought about ending it all- my life. I know that it's bad and that it would probably hurt a lot of my friends, but when I thought that she was gone… I thought my life had ended. And then she woke up and I was so incredibly happy… I proposed right on the spot.
Her face- even with all the pain she's going through- is relaxed. She has a bandage on her right cheek where that ugly cut was- the plastic surgeon did a great job; You wouldn't know there was a cut there to begin with. Her wavy brown hair is over her right shoulder, covering the wrappings on her right arm.
I was planning on doing this before the accident- on our anniversary dinner. I took her left hand and smiled at her sleeping face. She's just so beautiful- so everything that is good about the world. And she said yes… my fiancé.
