All you guys have to do is sit back and enjoy the ride...so here it is...
Chapter 5
Could he heal Jessi, how would he do it, were the questions racing through Kyle's mind as he sat holding her hand. Not finding any answers right away Kyle knew was that he had to try something, as much for her sake as for his, as he didn't think he could last without her and comfort she brought him. Feeling utterly selfish for thinking about how his life would drastically change without Jessi whilst she lay in bed injured caused Kyle to feel ashamed and guilty, for only thinking about what he would lose and ignoring the fact that Lori and Josh would lose a new sister and Nicole and Steven would lose a daughter. Rubbing his tired eyes Kyle also rebuked himself for wasting all those months when he refused to accept their bond, when he continued to ignore their growing connection to each other afraid of being discovered and leaving behind his perfect normal family life for an unknown. Never realising just how precious it is to have someone who is exactly like him, someone he can talk to and relate with, discovering together just who they are and what their capable of.
Looking across the room he saw his family sprawled out to various degrees on chairs scattered around the room taking up a vigil by Jessi's bedside waiting for her to wake up or for him to finally figure out how to heal Jessi.
Whilst Jessi had become stable she hadn't yet woken up from her coma and time was running out, as the longer Jessi stayed in her coma the less likely she would ever wake up from it predicted her doctor. Kyle knew that he would have to do something soon, only what he didn't know. Oh he tried to heal Jessi when he was first allowed to see her in recovery but had failed; he couldn't connect his mind with hers to try and bring her back so he had turned his attention to the injuries he could heal. But he had to stop when Lori pointed out that the rapid healing of her injuries would raise some question and prompt doctors to investigate raising suspicion on their special abilities, and maybe even alerting the wrong people as to their whereabouts.
He knew that for Jessi to come out of her coma and get better he needed to establish their connection, only every time he tried he mentally slammed into a block of some sort. It was like a barrier between them just keeping Kyle from connecting with Jessi's mind. The mental barrier felt impenetrable to Kyle and for the first time he couldn't think of a solution that would break the block in Jessi's mind. He had tried several times and each time made him weaker and weaker to point that he passed out twice much to Nicole and Steven's alarm.
So not wanting to add to Steven and Nicole's worry he promised them that he wouldn't try again until tomorrow at the earliest, and that after visiting hours were over he would also go home and eat something and then get some rest before coming back tomorrow morning. They knew that that was the best that they would get as his need for Jessi was all too apparent to those who looked at him and that nothing was going to hinder or stop him from getting her back.
Looking at the time Kyle realised that visiting hours were up and that he needed to fore fill his promise to Nicole and Steven, even though, he didn't want to leave Jessi he knew that she would be in good hands with Steven who promised to stay with her until Nicole, Lori and himself could relieve him in the morning. Turning to the person in the chair furthest away from Jessi's bedside Kyle's gaze landed on the sleeping form of Amanda, who was curled up in a chair facing him, Kyle thought back to the last 24 hours and he had to admit that Amanda had been a great help and comfort to his family during this crisis.
Always making sure everybody had a drink or something to eat Amanda had practically been glued to their sides since Jessi went missing. Even her mother couldn't tear her away, even so far as coming down to the clinic in an attempt to drag her home, but Amanda remained strong and refused citing that the Tragers need her support in this troubling time causing Carol to unleash her wrath upon them. But he knew that he couldn't let her get into anymore trouble because of them so he decided to take Amanda home.
Turning from Amanda Kyle got up and moved to the head of the bed and gently brushed her hair out of her face trailing his finger over her bruised cheek and swollen jaw before leaning down to place a kiss on her forehead.
"Good night Jessi, I'll see you tomorrow."
Turning around to gather his things Kyle found himself drawn to a wide awake Amanda and felt himself beginning to flush in embarrassment at being caught in such an intimate moment, looking to the floor Kyle also felt guilty over the pain he was causing her at seeing him being intimate with another girl, a girl who happened to be Jessi. Finally looking up her he gave her a tentative smile whilst walking over to her chair.
"I promised Nicole and Steven that I would go home and rest when visiting hours were over do you want to come with me, I can drop you off at home. I don't want you to be in anymore trouble with your mom."
"That would be great thanks"and indicating to the rest of his family "are the rest of the family going to go home as well" asked Amanda quitely.
"Just Lori and Nicole. I think Josh is going to stay here with his dad. We're going to take it in shifts until Jessi wakes up."
Nodding Amanda picked up her bag and turned towards the door taking a last look at the still form of Jessi, wondering just what she had forced her way into and whether she was ready for the obvious dangers that came with it.
Leaving Amanda at the door Kyle walked over to the rest of the family and shook them awake informing them that it was time to go home. Watching as each of them woke up and stretched their stiff muscles he notice just how tired they all were, with each of them checking to see if Jessi had awoken Kyle so the worry come back into their eyes as it dawned on them that there had been no change since the last time they checked.
It was agreed that Amanda, Lori, Nicole and Kyle would go home to eat, shower and rest for a few hours before coming back later to relieve Steven and Josh. Luckily for them Dr Mackintosh – Dylan, allowed them to stay in Jessi's room ignoring the rules in place.
Once everyone was sorted those going home started leaving but Kyle couldn't; it was like his feet were in cased in concrete holding him in the room with Jessi. What if he left and she got worse and slipped away from him were the thoughts racing through his mind.
He couldn't leave her she might need him and he would never forgive himself if he wasn't there for her again. Wasn't it the reason she got attacked in the first place, he got complacent but not anymore, he had to stay Jessi needed to be protected. Yes he had to stay for her protection and that is what he is going to tell Nicole and Steven when they asked...Oh who was he kidding going home and leaving her would hurt too much, he needed to stay for himself not for Jessi's protection.
Startled out of his thoughts the comforting hand of Lori came to his rescue: upon seeing his battle in whether to stay or go Lori decided to take the decision out of his hands, by gently pulling him from the room and keeping a firm grip on his hand all the way out of the clinic just in case he bolted and turned back.
The car ride home was in silence with everybody too tired to talk and their thoughts full and preoccupied with recent events and Jessi's health.
Feeling someone watching him Kyle turned to find Amanda staring at him whilst lost in her own thoughts and not knowing what to say all he could offer was a comforting squeeze of her hand before turning back to stare sightlessly out of the window.
Once they arrived home Nicole and Lori realised that the two needed some privacy to talk to each other and so they discretely left them in the car together and headed inside.
"Thank you for all you did to day, it was a great help" proclaimed Kyle.
"That's ok. I wanted to help. I know that you'll are going through a rough time at the moment and need all the support you can get, even if it's just bringing food or coffee for everyone."
At the mention of the day's events Kyle's face crumbled and seeing his devastated face Amanda leaned over and gave him a hug.
"It'll be alright Kyle, you just have to remember what Nicole said; Jessi's a fighter and she will pull through this you just have to be patient."
"I know but she's been through so much lately and I just have a feeling that she can't take anymore. I'm afraid that whilst Jessi is one of the strongest people I know, that this attack is going to be the last straw and she's going to give up."
"Then you have to give her hope something to fight for so that she stays with you in this world and then we can help her stand up on her own two feet and find her balance again."
"You right, thank you Amanda you've helped me a lot."
Dragging in a deep breath Kyle slowly left her embrace came face to face with a tired Amanda.
Kyle stared into her eyes and remembered that her compassion was one of the things he loved about and with that he remembered all their good times together and the feelings he had for her came rushing to the fore front of his mind. Feeling such a rush of love left Kyle feeling confused and overwhelmed, tucking her hair behind her ear he realised that for a few moments he had forgotten all about the events of the day and the seriousness of Jessi's coma for just a second he was a normal teenager in love with a girl.
It was the hope in Amanda's eyes that propelled him back to reality where he wasn't a normal teenager, he had feelings for two girls and the worry for Jessi and their bond came back.
It should of been very clear to him who he wanted to be with but it wasn't; a few hours ago he thought it was Jessi who he was meant to be with but now sitting here with Amanda in the car, like this, just confused him. Did he want to be with Amanda or Jessi?
Removing his hands from her face Kyle turned to get out of the car knowing that if he stayed any longer he would say or do something in the heat of the moment that he wouldn't be able to take back and that would hurt both of them.
Feeling like he was betraying Jessi with his thoughts and actions Kyle got out of the car and started up the drive, he knew that he couldn't say or do anything until Jessi was better so that they could both be present so he removed himself from temptation.
"Kyle wait! What just happened?" exclaimed Amanda slightly perplexed at how things had suddenly turned out.
Stopping and shrugging his shoulders he explained "I don't know what happened, one minute I'm worried about Jessi and the next minute I'm thinking about all those times when we were happy and my life wasn't so complicated. And then all these feelings came rushing out of know where and I don't know what to do, I have feelings for you and those feelings are making me feel like I'm betraying Jessi."
Moving to sit on the front step Kyle looked up at Amanda and caught a glimpse of triumph in her eyes, sighing upon seeing this Kyle realised that she thought he had chosen her, but he knew that was far from the case and he needed to make her understand that.
"Amanda I have feelings for Jessi too, it's completely different to what I feel for you but its just as strong: we have a bond that I don't think I could live without and I don't know if that means I have to be with Jessi or if I'm in love with Jessi. I'm very confused over my feelings for both you. All I know is that I have to focus on Jessi at the moment; she needs me and I can't be worried that I'm going to hurt one of you or feel guilt when I'm around one of you. So, I think that we all should just be friends all of us, is that ok with you."
Looking crest fallen Amanda tried to sound up beat and understanding when she answered.
"Oh...no I totally understand, being just friends is fine with me, for now. But just know that I'm here for you so please don't shut me out; you don't have to lie or hide your abilities from me or keep secrets from me anymore, I'm with you and the Tragers 100%."
"Thank you" replied Kyle standing up and moving to the front door "good night Amanda."
"Goodnight Kyle" waved Amanda as she walked over to her house.
Entering the house Kyle immediately recognised an extra heartbeat present, cautiously making him approach the lounge whilst preparing himself for anything that he might find but much to his relief the extra heartbeat belonged to a friend and ally - Foss.
Foss was pacing up and down with a wary Nicole and Lori watching from the couch.
"Foss what are you doing here. Last time I saw you you said you would be back after you secure the prisoner. Where have you been?" demanded Kyle angrily.
"I was gathering information from our prisoner and since then I have been verifying the intel with a contact of mine. It's not good Kyle."
"What did you find out?"
"That our friend was hired by Latnok on orders from a high ranking member, that's all I got but he did tell me that they were always called in for a job when everything else fails or when they want to send a specific message. He reluctantly told me that they we're sent to acquire Jessi and use her as bait to lure you to them, and once they had both of you they were suppose to dispose of Jessi but not before they sent a message to both of you. You don't want to know what they had planned Kyle, all I'll say is that they specialise in this sort of message."
Giving Kyle a pointed look that there was more to it but he would tell him later when they were alone and not in front of his family, Foss continued and avoided looking at Lori and Nicole knowing that there was more bad news to come.
"Hearing that I phoned my contact within Latnok to confirm whether or not everything I was told was true. When my contact got back to me she confirmed everything and gave me the heads up on what's going on within Latnok: Kyle Latnok is in uproar over the fluid contamination at the warehouse as now they have to scrap the experiment costing them millions of dollars and disappointing their customers. All of the high ranking members were summoned by the founding fathers who have now stepped in to control the situation. My contact said that when the meeting was over there were a few less members and that the founding fathers are going to now be handling the XX and XY project."
"Kyle that's Jessi and you; they ordered a hit on Jessi and told the others to capture you using any means necessary. They're not playing anymore, this just got 3 times more dangerous then before."
Looking stunned Kyle asked "so what do we do?"
"Well for starts you need to find a way to heal Jessi and fast as we're going to need her when they come at us again and make no mistake Kyle they will be coming. Once a decree has been made by the Founding Fathers only they can stop it or change it. Once you've healed Jessi we can move her, the Tragers and yourself to safe location until we find a way to deal with Latnok..."
"We have to leave home too" interrupted Lori who was holding on to her mother for support after hearing the cruel and evil plans Latnok had for Kyle and Jessi.
"Why can't the rest of the family stay in our home" chipped in Nicole.
"Because the directive is to kill Jessi, capture and break Kyle at any cost and one effective way to do that is to use the people close to them as its been demonstrated in the past."
"Oh I see" they both replied.
Not understanding how so many intellectual and logical minds could become so corrupt and evil plagued Kyle, would they ever stop and more to the point how would they stop them.
"Won't they know that the people they've already sent have failed by now and be already after us, should we move Jessi and the rest of the family to the safe house now just in case" asked Kyle.
Smiling slightly Foss was happy to inform Kyle that for now they had gotten lucky in that Foss had gotten their guest to report in saying that they had captured Jessi and were going to progress onto the next stage; luring Kyle to them. Thus giving us a few days before Latnok realises that it's all a ruse and their men have been taken out.
Needing to get the plan clear in his head Kyle got up and started pacing up and down trying to comprehend everything that he had been told.
"I need to find a way to bring Jessi out of her coma, nothing so far that I have tried has worked."
"What's preventing you from healing her" asked Foss.
"I don't know. There is this barrier that stops me from actually connecting with her, at first I thought it was because she was too weak and so was the connection, but now that I think about it I think its Jessi herself who is blocking me."
"Crap!" exclaimed Foss in frustration. "We don't have the time for you to break down Jessi's mental barriers right now, what with Latnok right on our heels. Besides the two of you are too evenly matched who knows how long it could take or what the long time damage could be or even if you would succeed in time."
They both looked at each other knowing that they needed Jessi for the up and coming fight against Latnok. Foss' gut instinct was telling him that this would be a fight for their very lives and not just Jessi's and Kyle's but also their families. Not knowing if Kyle realised this yet Foss thought of all the up coming obstacles they would have to face in order for them to be ready and they really did not need to start out at a disadvantage, they needed Jessi. Looking away Foss tried to remember if Adam had told him of any techniques that could help Kyle in breaking Jessi's barrier, but surprising enough it was Lori who came up with a valuable suggestion.
"I think you should try talking to Jessi a bit more Kyle."
"What why? How will that help" taunted Foss.
"Well they say a coma patient, can hear you, and if Kyle keeps on talking to Jessi; telling her that she's safe and that he wants to heal her maybe she will relax her barriers enough to let him in. And we should do the same Mom creating a safe and familiar place for her will also help because I'm sure she must be picking up on our worry and tension maybe making her hesitant to leave the coma."
"It could work I suppose" Foss admitted grudgingly "and when you attempt to connect again with her Kyle don't try and force or strong arm the connection, do it tentatively like your asking for permission to connect as strong arming her might make her think it's not really you but a trick being played on her by Latnok."
"Ok I'll try tomorrow when we go back to the clinic. In the mean time we need to find a place for everyone to stay once Jessi is well enough to travel."
"Why doesn't everybody stay at Adam's house, the security is still in place from when you and him were last there, I can update it and get everything ready whilst we're waiting for Jessi to heal."
Nicole, Kyle and Lori stared at Foss in amazement "we can do that" asked Kyle.
"Of course we can, Adam left the bulk of his estate to you Kyle."
"He did" exclaimed three voices.
"What does that mean exactly" inquired Nicole.
"Well I don't have all the details but once Adam is officially dead then Kyle inherits everything but in the mean time Kyle is listed as Adam's nephew and ward so he can have access to the estate. I have the keys for the house so I can go air it out before everybody moves in."
"Wait! What do you mean once Adam is officially dead?" asked Lori
Sighing Foss saw that Lori was not the only confused by this but hoping to clarify he continued.
"Well Latnok didn't like the idea of Adam preventing them from gaining access to Kyle or the fact that he wanted to go on a sabbatical of sorts, so a few influential members convinced the rest to take Adam out of the equation - discretely. And they did. There's no public record of the death of Adam Baylin so for all intense and purpose Adam is still alive and owner of the estate but I can take care of that late once it's safe."
"I thought Adam died from pushing his body past its limitations and it failed killing him" asked Kyle suspiciously having remembered their conversation about Adam's death.
"That was one contributing factor to his death: when they came for him Adam was too weak to fight them all off there just was too many of them, and during the fight his body gave out him allowing him to be captured and killed. I never told you about Latnoks involvement I thought it would be better to scare you into being more careful and not over do it with your powers and ending up like Adam rather then tell you Latnok's involvement as I wasn't certain I could stop you from doing something rash playing into Latnok's hands."
"How could you do that! How could you use Adam's death like that, using it to manipulate me into training was wrong. Very wrong. And you lied to me about how he died, I had a right to the truth, don't you ever lie to me again or try to manipulate me into doing what you want me to do" yelled Kyle angrily.
"Kyle calm down" stepped in Nicole "I'm sure he only did what he thought was best at the time and that it wasn't done maliciously."
Nodding Kyle stepped back never realising that he had crossed the room and was practically in Foss's face breathing hard from all the shouting he hadn't realised he was doing, "sorry" murmured Kyle more calmly and quietly "just don't do it again I have enough to worry about with Latnok manipulating very little aspect of my life I don't need my protector and friend doing it as well."
"I promise I won't do it again but you must realise that I won't be able to always make this promise Kyle, I'm your protector and I will use everything I in my power to protect you and your family and that may mean making or doing things that you don't like. But like I told you before things are about to get more dangerous so I need you to understand and accept that as well" firmly replied Foss.
"You must also realise that you can't play fair or nice anymore Latnok has upped their game and have just made it a life or death situation for both you and Jessi so you must accept that from now on their might be things that you will have to do that won't be pleasant or even fair in order to survive. I'll try and keep you and Jessi away from most of them but I won't be able to all the time so just prepare yourself for when the time comes that you have to get your hands dirty so to speak."
Letting Kyle and the rest of the Tragers digest his latest revelation Foss walked out of the lounge and to the front door, turning back he saw three emotionally and physically wrecked people sitting together looking devastated at the turn their lives had taken.
"I'll be in touch once everything is in place, just please remember that we don't have a lot of time before they get on to us, be vigilant and try and stay together if possible."
And with that advice Foss left the Tragers to get started on a long list of projects because they needed to be ready and at the moment it wouldn't take much for Latnok to win.
Relieving Steven and Josh the next morning couldn't come quicker for Kyle, although, it felt like the universe had decided to play a joke on him that morning. First; they had Carol Bloom on their doorstep early in the morning complaining about how we were taking advantage of her daughter and risking her health with all these late nights at the clinic, leaving poor Amanda red faced and apologetic as she tried to drag her mother away before she could say anymore. After Carol left Hilary showed up and whilst Kyle liked Hilary today she just would not get the hint and leave; instead she was complained about a boy who she didn't know whether to date or not what with his obvious lack of fashion sense and low score on the popularity scale. Being totally inconsiderate to the fact that Jessi was in hospital, Lori stated that this was Hilary's way of being helpful by focusing everybody's mind on something else and not on how bad Jessi was hence her asking for advice on her boy troubles, although it only seemed to be working on Lori.
By the time they were ready to leave the phone rang and this time it was Steven's work ring to find out when he was coming back to work. Having already missed a couple of days they wanted to know if they would have to get a substitute teacher or just cancel his classes until further notice.
Feeling utterly frustrated with all the delays Kyle breathed a sigh of relief when they finally arrived at the clinic. Quickly making their way to Jessi's room Kyle noticed a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, slowing down to get a better look at this person he noted that she was female and had been sitting there for quite sometime if memory served him right. She had dark brown wavy hair, brown eyes, slender and looked to be in her late 20s maybe early 30s, failing to remember where else he had seen her before Kyle decided to keep an eye on her just in case she was with Latnok and here to harm Jessi.
Shaking off the feeling that he was being watched Kyle went into Jessi's room with Nicole, Lori having stayed behind at home to make breakfast for Steven and Josh to eat when they got back as well as waiting for Amanda to finish calming down her mother before they would join them. Upon entering Nicole and Kyle found Steven and Josh fast asleep and Jessi the same as when they left her.
Waking them up gently Nicole told them to go home and sleep and that Lori will fill them in on everything once they had rested for a bit, stating that we would see them later on for a late lunch.
Waving good bye Kyle quickly made his way to the head of the bed and leaning down gently kissed Jessi on her cheek, brushing her hair away from her face he trailed his fingers down her cheek and jaw moving to her arm and finally lacing his fingers through hers to clutch at her hand before sitting down.
As he sat beside Jessi's bed Kyle tried to find the right words like Lori had suggested, he needed to convey just how much they all needed her when he felt a tap on his shoulder, turning around he found Nicole behind him smiling gently.
"I'm going to talk to Jessi's doctor and then get a cup of coffee giving you some of privacy; I'll be back in a while."
"Thanks Nicole" he replied.
Looking back at Jessi's still figure Kyle decided to speak from his heart and hope that she could feel how much he wanted to help her.
"Hi Jessi it's me, I hope you can hear me. I just wanted to tell you that you're safe, I'm here know and nothing and no one is going to hurt you. I'm so sorry that I wasn't there when you needed me but I promise that I'm here now and I want to help. Please Jessi please let me help, I need you, I need you awake and here with us, I need you pushing and challenging me, I just...I need you here with me."
With tears in his eyes Kyle looked at Jessi hoping to see a change but seeing none he dropped his head on to the bed in defeat, not knowing why he really expected any change after his little speech.
He knew that he couldn't give up now but it seemed so hopeless, would he ever get her back?.
"Please Jessi just let me in, that's all, just let me in so I can feel connected to you even if its for the last time, let me at least say goodbye. Won't you give me that?" whispered Kyle dejectedly.
Unable to continue Kyle just sat there with his head resting on her bed and his had wrapped around hers trying to have any sort of connection with her, he was unable to say anything else he just hope for the first time in his life that his prayers would be enough to bring Jessi back as his powers were useless in this case.
He didn't know how long he sat there like that but slowly but sure his subconscious recognised a familiar feeling that made the hairs at the back of his neck stand up. At first Kyle thought that someone else was in the room with them but he assured himself that nobody else had entered the room, coming slowly to the realisation that the familiar feeling he felt was Jessi. He could feel her presence, it wasn't as strong but it was there and it gave him hope lifting his head up Kyle knew that she had heard him. She was going to give him a chance to either heal her or say goodbye he hoped it was the former, getting out his seat Kyle sat on the bed and held both of Jessi's hands.
"Thank you Jessi" and with that Kyle closed his eyes and tried to establish their connection and much to his relief he succeeded.
When the connection was established Kyle found himself in a little girl's room; the room had purple walls and a big bay window with a window seat that was covered with stuffed animals. On one side of the wall stood a white book case that was full of books from different genres with a sprinkling of knick knacks littering the edge of each shelf; ranging from mini porcelain figure skaters to decorative boxes. Next to the bookcase sat a large treasure trunk with boxes of games on top waiting to be played. Passing the bed with its striped covers Kyle came face to face with a little girl with wild curly hair smiling at him, she sat in front of a child size dressing table fit for a little princess.
Side stepping the toys and pillows on the floor Kyle tentatively approached her hoping that he wouldn't frighten her off.
"Hi, my name is Kyle what's yours."
"Don't be silly I know your Kyle and you know my name" giggled the little girl.
"Jessi! Is that you?"
"Of course it's me."
Kyle stood staring as Jessi continued to brush her hair making even more curls spring to life, looking at he didn't know what having a 7 year old Jessi talking to him meant. Had she sustained more head trauma then they had originally thought or had the attack mentally regressed her into a 7 year old. He had know idea how this had happened or what it meant all he could do was try and get Jessi to tell him herself.
"Do you want to play a game I have loads" asked Jessi after she had finished brushing her hair.
"Ok" replied Kyle not knowing what else to do.
Hopping off her chair Jessi grabbed a board game off the treasure trunk and sat on the floor looking at Kyle expectantly waiting for him to join her. Taking the hint Kyle took a seat on the floor opposite her and watched as she set up the snakes and ladders game.
"You can go first" offered Jessi politely holding out the dice for him to take a turn.
Taking the dice Kyle knew that he had to say something as he didn't know how long he had. So he rolled his dice and took his turn quickly before giving the dice back to her, he watched her take her turn before asking any questions.
"Jessi do you know why I'm here" he asked.
"
Uhuh" came her reply.
"Jessi I here to help, you're sick at the moment and I'm here to make you better. But I need your help: I need you to help me find a way to bring you out of the coma and back home. Will you help me Jessi?" he asked.
"But I don't want to go back, I like it here" she answered before handing him the dice indicating that it was his turn.
"I know you like it here but you don't belong here, you belong in the real world with those who love you."
"People hurt and leave me out there so no, I don't want to go back it's safer in here, we could stay together and then we can play whenever we want to" smiled Jessi as she urged him to take his turn.
Taking his turn Kyle landed on a snake and went all the way back to the beginning much to Jessi's happiness as now she was in the lead.
"I'll keep you safe Jessi I promise; I won't let any one hurt you" stated Kyle.
Pausing Jessi looked at him and stared at him for a moment before focusing on the board again "you can't promise that so please don't."
"You're right I'm sorry I shouldn't of promise that, but I do promise that I will always be there for you no matter what happens."
"So will you help me bring you back? There are a lot of people who love you who are waiting to see you and talk to you again" pleaded Kyle hoping that he had reassured her enough that she would want come back or had considered helping him.
"I don't want to go back there, I can't go back, I'm just too tired, I think I better stay here" she whispered softly, it was then that Kyle noticed the tears running down her cheeks.
Getting up off the floor Jessi bravely wiped away her tears away before he could and smiled at him sadly "its time to go Kyle thanks for playing with me, if you visit again maybe we could finish the game."
Very confused by her behaviour Kyle stood up looking down into her eyes trying to understand what she was trying to tell when suddenly he lost his balance and fell to one knee.
"Goodbye Kyle."
"Jessi...Jessi what's happening to me."
"You're going back...you shouldn't have stayed this long..."
And with that she faded and Kyle found himself back in Jessi's room at the clinic with Jessi still in a coma.
A/N: Well what do you think? I totally freaked out when I all of a sudden wanted to write about Kyle having feelings for a Amanda I thought by now my muse would have gotten rid of her with Kyle totally in love with Jessi, but nope she's still there lol Any way I can't wait to see how it actually turns out between them...when will Kyle chose one or the other and how will he tell them? Any ideas...
Please let me know review review review...
