A/N: Two chapters in one day! You lucky ducks! Plus you're going to love this chapter probably! Ha-ha I know, I know….Disclaimer EXCEPT FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE MINE! (Meaning Rose and Sarah who's really not mentioned a lot so….huh. Maybe I'll bring Chelsea back….we'll have to see.) Also check out my polls on my profile! I need help deciding!
Abigail's POV:
It's been four days since they fell into a coma. On day three they had to put Rose in ice to drain her fever. She was just so pale, but she would fall into sweats like that! I feared for my new niece's life. I held onto Rose's hand brushing my thumb gently across her fingers, sighing. "Please wake up, sweetie. Ben needs you, we need you." I whispered to her moving to brush some hair out of her face. "Hm-mm…" I heard. I gasped. "R-R-Riley!"
"Abigail?" He croaked. "Oh, dear God Riley!" I rushed over to my friend giving him a gentle hug. "Ben's in the cafeteria getting something quick! How do you feel?"
"How long was I out?" Typical Riley to answer a question with a question. "Four days. How do you feel?" I asked again still over whelmed.
"Like I was hit by a truck." He muttered.
"RILEY!" Ben yelled sprinting to his friend's side in an instant, giving him a hug. "How long have you been up?"
"Only a minute or two…" He mumbled. "How do you-"
"Like I've been hit by a six-teen wheeler…" He muttered tossing his head back into his pillow and groaning realizing that that had been a mistake. "Ouch."
"I'll get the doctor and tell him you're up." I said rushing out of the room. "Dr. Simons, Riley woke up!" I must be radiant because he looked up with a smile himself. "Well, let's go see how our patient is feeling."
When we got back Ben was keeping Riley from going back to sleep. "Not yet, you could slip into another-"
"Mr. Poole, what wonderful news!" Dr. Simons exclaimed walking to Riley's heart monitor. "Steady." He nodded.
"So do I get to take some pain killers or what?" Riley begged I couldn't fight off the smile that grew upon my lips. "Where's- oh God Rose…" Riley's face fell seeing his girlfriend in the state she was in. His heart raced, and I knew seeing her wouldn't do him much good for his own health. "Riley, it's-"
"Is she…?"
"She's keeping life yes, but it's very slow." The doctor responded. "Oh, my God, Ben I'm so-"
"Riley, don't say you're sorry. None of this was your fault. None of it." Ben said.
"I…I can't believe Ian just…well I actually can believe it, I just wish I didn't have to." Riley said. "Well Mr. Poole it seems like you'll make it out of here okay. But we'll need to keep you on observation for a few days just to make sure." Dr. Simons told Riley. "Riley, she'll wake up. She has to." I whispered wrapping my arms around his shoulders as he glanced worriedly over at Rose. "You're right Abby…she just has to wake up." Riley cried. "She has to."
