Hi everyone! Here's the new chapter, I hope you guys enjoy it! Let me know what you think and what will happen next. :) Thank you for taking the time out to read it.
LAUREN POV
Karma dragged me all the way to the car causing me to laugh the whole time at her excitement. She continuously pulled the handle of the passenger door, like a 10-year-old, until I unlocked the car. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little excited to find out if Amy was awake. I couldn't think of the negative side of why the doctor would call us. I had to take it into account though, but I wasn't going to ruin Karma's happiness by my pessimism. I tried calling Doctor whatever his face but he wouldn't answer, which didn't help ease either of our minds.
She was nervous. Anyone with a pair of eyes could see that. She was messing with her hands and bouncing her leg. I'm sure she thought of the worst outcome already and I had to reassure her that Amy was most likely alright.
"Karma?" I said trying to get her attention, but she wouldn't get out of her head. I had to distract her somehow. "You know what my favorite thing about Amy is?" I said finally getting her to look at me by saying Amy's name.
She looked at me with furrowed eyebrows curiously. "Amy was pretty popular in high school. I'm sure she told you that. I, however, find it hilarious how she hates being the center of attention, and now she's a big time pop star." I said laughing looking over at Karma who was smiling. "People don't understand her. They think she takes her fame for granted, which isn't true. See, Amy loves something with everything she has or nothing at all. But music is something she loves with everything she has. Being the center of attention was nothing if that meant she got to do what she loved more than anything. After you came into her life, I started seeing her happier than she usually was, and that's when I realized something. Karma, Amy loves you just as much as she loves music, and that is something I never imagined happening. That makes me so happy to know that my baby sister gets to be happy just like she deserves, because she is the humblest person I know. I can see past all the walls she's built up inside her and I know she is truly great. She's waited for you to come into her life just as you waited for her. So don't give up on her now."
"I will never give up on Amy, Lauren. You have my word on that. I need her." Karma said quietly.
I smiled at her and she returned a tiny laugh. We finally made it to the hospital and finding parking was a pain. Karma was out of the car before the tires even stopped completely. I tired to get out just as fast but I had another human growing inside of me, so it was a bit more difficult.
"I could use some help, Karma!" I said yelling.
She turned around, "I'm sorry! I was just too caught up in getting inside. My bad."
"It's okay." I said joining her side. She grabbed my hand and walked towards the front doors.
KARMA POV
All I could think about was what Amy and what the doctor had to say. The nurses told us he would be out of surgery in a few and that we could wait in his office. I was sitting by Lauren too nervous to say anything. I knew Lauren was scared too, because she was wiping the palm of her hands on her jeans every couple of minutes. I leaned over to grab her hand causing her to look at me. She gave me a weak smile and placed her other hand on top of mine.
"Hello. Sorry for being late, I was operating on another patient," Dr. Matthews said.
"I apologize for not answering your calls," Lauren said.
"It's alright. I called to let you both know that Amy is doing extremely well, and she is likely to wake up as soon as today. Her wound is healing and it will take a couple of weeks for it to be completely healed. She is recovering perfectly and her vitals are great too."
I looked at Lauren smiling with tears in my eyes. "So, she's going to be okay?"
"Yes, Karma. Amy is going to be just fine," he said happily.
"Lauren I need you to-"
"Dr. Matthews we need you in room 317." One of the nurse said interrupting him. He got up grabbing his stethoscope and ran out before I registered whose room that was.
"Wait, that's Amy's room!" I said panicky to Lauren.
I got up to go look at what was going on with Lauren right behind me. The nurses were blocking our view making it difficult to see anything. I tired to push past the nurses but they told me to stay outside. I could only see the doctor checking Amy's eyes and heartbeat from the gap between the nurses.
"What's going on?!" I yelled at one of the nurses who didn't answer me. "Are you going to answer me or just stare at me?"
Lauren pulled me away from the door as they closed the room door. That's when I started getting scared. What happened to her being okay? What happened to her being able to wake up as soon as today?
