"Nai? Nai wake up!" I half-heard Lauren shouting. Then there was black. It felt like ropes were binding me and holding me down. I tried to struggle but my body wouldn't respond. I heard Sirens and felt a slight pressure on my hand
"Nai. It'll be O.K." Laurens voice seemed far away and distant. Like it was coming through a bad radio. Then once again I was enveloped in blackness. The next time I felt/heard anything I heard a male voice saying
"Naiome? Niaome can you hear me." Then I felt a bright light in my eye's. I tried to move my arm and was surprised when it responded. I slowly moved my arm to shield my eye's from the bright light. I heard the male gasp.
"Naiome can you open your eyes for me." I attempted to force my eyelids open but only got them half way before the clamped shut again.
"Nai! Nai please wake up." I heard Lauren call. Her voice sounded hoarse and choked. Like she was fighting tears. I tried again to force my eye's open.
"Lauren... Please turn off the lights." I said hoarsly and slowly. I felt the bright lights dim and opened my eye's fully. I had about half a second of vision before all I could see was Orange.
"Oxygen Loz. People need it." Lauren loosened her hold slightly.
"Where am I?" I asked still speaking slowly. My throat hurt. All of me hurt but I refused to let that stop me.
"Your in a hospital." Lauren replied.
"You collapsed in the restaurant. Hichi rang an ambulance. Everyone is waiting to see you." Lauren explained. It was then I saw the door and saw everyone crowded round trying to peer through the small window. I smiled weakly.
"You should let them in before they break the door down." I said my voice getting stronger. Lauren nodded and removed herself from me. She walked over to the door but before she had chance to open it everyone burst through.
"Nai are you alright?"
"What happened?"
"We could have lost you."
"You need to be more careful." Voice upon voice piled on top of each other. I coughed slightly and then raised a hand. There was silence.
"Flaming hell. I forgot how much you lot talked." I said before coughing again. Everyone burst out laughing as I scanned all their faces to see who was there. There was Danny, BB, Jez, Lola, Ronnie and Claudine. Lauren had dissappered.
"Does anyone know where Lozzy is?" I asked quietly. Jez was the only one who heard me.
"I think she went to get a drink. Do you want me to go and get her?" He offered. I nodded.
"Please." I said. Before Jez managed to get back the Doctor came in and shooed everyone out.
"You can only have to visitors Miss." He explained.
"Lauren and Jez." I said quickly. I looked apologetically at everyone else. Especially Claudine. They all filed out as Jez returned with Lauren.
"Whats wrong Nai?" Asked Lauren rushing to the side of my bed
"Nothing now." I replied smiling at her.
"Doctor." I called before he managed to leave the room.
"When can I go?"
"Soon." He replied
"We just need to run some tests. To find out why you fainted."
"Oh. I can tell you that. Just not with Lozzy and Jez around." I said. The Doctor looked and Lauren and Jez who got the hint and left. Standing just outside the door and peering in through the window.
"I have a mental disorder that means when certain emotions elevate I collapse. I'm normally fine when I wake up. If had been left for another five minutes I would have woken up. But since I was moved it took me longer to wake.*" I explained. The Doctor nodded then said
"Well if your feeling O.K. you can go home." The instant those words were out of his mouth I was up. Youwould have thought I had been electrocuted or something. I was still dressed which was good. I bid the Doctor good day and then basically skipped out of the room. I met Lauren and Jez outside my room and we walked back together.
"You sure your O.K. Nai?" Lauren asked as we sat on the bus
"Yes. If I collapse again just don't let anyone move me and then I will wake up after about seven minutes." I said with a smile. I took Laurens hand and sat there stroking her thumb until our stop rolled around. We walked back to our house. Just me and Lauren as Jez had already gone home. We stopped about one street away and I turned her to face me.
"Lozzy. I love you." I said. This was the first time that when I had said that to someone I had meant it.
"I love you to Nai." Lauren replied sounding equally sincere. I smiled before kissing her lightly on the corner of the mouth
"Come on Lozzy. Lets get home before everyone has a heart attack." I said taking her hand again. As we antered the front door I called out
"We're back." And before you could say 'Brittannia High' I was jumped on by everyone. And I mean everyone. I could barely breath. Lauren saw this and said
"Guys, guys, back off. People do need oxygen you know." I smiled gratefully at her.
"Glad you missed me. Now if you don't mind I feel like I am going to pass out again if I don't get some sleep. Night." I started up the stairs and heard Lauren saying goodnight as well. I got to my room and opened it. I lay down on my bed on my back as I heard the door open again
"Hey Lozzy." I said as I heard the door shut behind her
"How did you know it was me?" She asked as she lay down next to me
"Who else is it gonna be?" I asked scooting up and letting her snuggle into my side
"Whats up?" I asked
"I don't want to leave you alone. Just in case you collapse again." She replied nestling deeper into my embrace. I lifted her head gently and kissed her.
"Since your in here do you want to have some fun?" I asked smiling. She nodded and crashed her lips into mine.
*I don't know if this is a real disease. But I needed a decent reason why Nai would collapse.
