Chapter 6: Waking Up
I woke up in the darkness. I saw someone sitting in a chair beside me. As my eyes adjusted, I realized I was in the hospital wing, and the person sitting next to me was Draco. I remembered what happened and immediately, tears came pouring out of my eyes. I got out of bed, and went into Madame Pomfrey's office. She was sitting at her desk doing paperwork. I cleared my throat and she looked up.
"Cameron, dear. Come here sit in the chair." She said. I sat in the seat she had pointed to. I still had tears pouring out of my eyes. "Oh dear, I know this is hard on you, but you must know it is not your fault. If you are feeling up to it, you can go back to your dorm room."
"I can't go back there after what happened. I just can't…" I said. How could I have let this happen. I was off losing my virginity while he was in my room committing suicide. "Is he…you know…dead?"
"Not quite, but he is in a coma. He will never wake up. He is in the bed next to yours if you want to go see him." I hadn't noticed anyone in the bed next to me, but I was out of the door before I even let her finish. I saw him laying there, with so many tubes and wires connected to him. I sobbed as quietly as I could, trying not to wake Draco up. I couldn't handle him right now. Why did Adam have to go and do this shit to me? His best friend, the only person who ever truly loved him.
"Adam? Can you hear me? It's Cammie, and I am not mad at you, but I will be if you don't come back to me. Damn it! Please come back I can't live without you. If you won't come back to me here, then I will have to go to you wherever you are." I thought spoke to him, but of course there was no answer. This was all my fault. There is only one thing I can do. I walked over to Draco and kissed him lightly on the lips making sure not to wake him. I found some spare parchment on the desk. I took a quill and ink from the drawer. I wrote a note to Draco.
Dear Draco,
I know that you don't really love me, and I really don't know why you were so nice to me sometimes and such a dick the next. Well, anyway, if you are reading this I have killed myself, because I have nobody that's alive to love me. I am going to find Adam, and we are going to live in eternity together where no one will judge us being together.
Love,
Cameron
I went back up to my dorm room to grab the dagger I had been saving for this day. It had black metal, and the hilt was black with red roses twining up the sides. I went into my trunk and pulled it out of the secret compartment. I pranced quickly up to the Astronomy Tower and stuck the note in my mouth. I was perched on the ledge and I heard someone running up the stairs. I turned around to see Draco running at me, but I was very far away from the door. I let a tear fall from my eye as Draco yelled something to me.
"Cammie don't! Cammie, please don't do this!" He screamed. I could see the tears pouring from his eyes. I faltered for a moment wondering if he actually did love me. I couldn't take that chance. When he was close enough to almost reach me, I let the note drop out of my mouth and into his hands. I leaned backwards and immediately felt the rush of air surrounding me as I smiled knowing I would be seeing Adam as soon as I hit the ground. I turned over to make sure the dagger would plunge straight through my heart. There was only pain for a second or two, as my eyes rolled into my head, and my world went black.
