Ally's P.O.V
I'm usually a pretty safe driver but not tonight. I was either right on the speed limit or over it but right now I didn't even care. All that I cared was about Austin and his safety. Thank god it was a Friday night. I pulled up to the hospital, I saw Dez's orange van (don't even ask) so I knew him and Trish were already on their way. I ran into the hospital's front doors and over to the front desk. "Um hi there, I'm-m Ally-y Dawson-n I'm lookin-g for Aus-Austin Moon-n-n" I said, stupid stuterning. I only do that if I'm nervous or scared and frankly I'm doing both right now. "One second miss" the nurse said. I tried to stay calm I mean I know she's doing her job and all, but she could speed up the process a little? "Well he is on the fourth floor-" The nurse lady began but my feet took off. I pressed the elevator button what a hundred times in a matter of seconds. I watched the elevator numbers slowly go down, "five, four" I mumbled to myself. "Too slow" I thought to myself. Now let me say I'm usually very patient but this is a very rare case, if it involves Austin and his life in danger then no one get's in my way. I turned my head and saw a door that said 'stairs' on it. I opened the door and dashed up the stairs. I tripped and skinned my knee but didn't really care. I opened the door the fourth floor, my hair was in my face. I turned and saw Dez who had his head in his hands. He was quiet, and Trish was pacing around she was quiet too. Somethings wrong.
Trish looked up at me and ran over to me and I wrapped her into a hug. I began to cry again, Dez came over and wrapped his arms around both of us. Once pulled away I said "where is he?" Trish looked at Dez who looked at her and then she said, "well when we got here which was only about five minutes ago, they said that they said that he had needed to be rushed to surgery but they would update us as soon as they could" Trish said. I nodded not knowing what else to do. Soon Mimi and Mike showed up, we all waited. I looked on twitter, Austin's accident was all over the place. I even got a few tweets. Soon everyone else was fast asleep and I looked at clock and it was one a.m. I guess I must of fell asleep too. I opened my eyes I looked around and saw everyone else had left, weird? I looked down at the seat next to me, there was a note it said
Hey Ally,
We all headed back to the hotel but you looked so peaceful so we didn't want to wake you! We'll see you in the morning
Mimi
I yawned squinting before I saw a figure walking towards me. I focused my eyes and then saw it was a doctor. Thank god! "Are you here for Austin Moon?" The doctor asked me. I stood up and pulled out my hand and said "yes I am, I'm Austin's song writer and girlfriend" the doctor smiled for a second then went back to his normal state. "Oh well then my daughters are both huge fans of your work. Oh by the way call me Rocky, you might want to take a seat for this" Rocky said. Now I'm worried. "Um alright" I said sitting down worried. "Um so do you know what you call an owls beck?" Rocky asked. I raised my eyebrow and said "um what?" "Who knows" Rocky said laughing a little, so did I. Then I realized that they also told me a joke before they told us my mom had died. No. This isn't good at all. Rocky could tell that I was nervous so he rubbed his temples. Not helping. "Please just tell me" I said my voice cracking. "I've already told the other they're on their way but they told me I should tell you. You see when Austin was in the accident the car had caused his car to flip over. This had caused the car to practically on top of Austin. They had gotten him out, trust me we tried to save him, his right lung collapsed. That had caused his heart to fail we did not succeed to resuscitate. I'm so sorry miss but Austin Moon has passed away" Rocky said. Those words echoed in my head. He is dead. I will never ever see Austin again, I will never see his cocky smile or his cute laugh or feel the way his arms wrapped around me. The way his voice sounded or when he would strum his guitar and hmm. I wouldn't be able to kiss him, hug him, breath in his scent, or even touch him ever again.
No. No. "NO! AUSTIN!" I yelled. I jolted up, my breath was heavy I had sweat dripping on my forehead. I saw Trish holding my hand and Mimi holding the other one. Dez and Mike were looking at me concerned. As soon as my breathing came back down Trish pulled me into a hug. I cried into her shoulder, that was the worst dream I had ever had. "I-I ha-d-d a d-ream Austin h-e, he died" I cried. "It's ok Ally, Austin's he's well we haven't gotten an update yet but we will soon" Trish said soothing me. I looked at the clock it was four a.m. Mimi got me some coffee and we were waiting. Then I saw the same doctor came walking towards us. No, was this like one of those glimpse into the future dreams? "Hey there I'm doctor Lynch but you can call me Rocky now who here is the parents of Austin Moon?" Rocky asked. Mimi and Mike stood up and said "that would be us, what's going on with our son?" Mike asked. "Well what happened was when we found him, his car was flipped over. We had pulled Austin out-" Rocky said. In my head I was panicking praying this wasn't going to go the way my dream no, nightmare did. "We had to rush him to ICU and his right lung collapsed. We luckily had a donor in time and so you're son is alive" Rocky said smiling. The breath I didn't realized I was holding in I let out. He is alive, a smile spread across my face. Everyone was hugging each other, then Rocky said "I'm sorry to interrupt this but I'm not done yet" Rocky said. We all went silent and Rocky said "We kept him alive but his lung right now is very weak, it's working but lungs don't just come perfect and work perfectly right away. We had to put him in a coma, he is perfectly fine but we don't know when he is going to wake up, but we know he will we're monitoring him very carefully but we don't know when. We are guessing it will be in the next few days or so. Do you want to go visit him?" Rocky said. I was so happy that he was alive but worried that he was in a coma and we don't know when he will wake up. Mike and Mimi went first then Trish and Dez, then I went. I took a deep breath in before entering Austin's room. I gasped, tears already began to flood my eyes. I looked and saw Austin had a tube in his mouth and he was contented to all sorts of different wires and needles and tubes. His tan skin was now a pale color and his bleach blonde hair has now turned darker. But I can tell he's still holding on. I walked over and placed my hand into his and entwined it. "Um hey?" I said. I laughed at how awkward I was. "Um I'm so sorry about what I said before, I'm so happy for you and you're going on tour which has been your dream! I should of told you sooner and I'm forever sorry about that, and everything that I said. I didn't mean a single word of it. I'm forever in love with you and just please wake up soon. I mean take all the time you need, just don't take forever ok? I erm, I mean I don't even know if you can hear me or not but I um, I wrote you a song. So yeah here it goes.
I can't sleep tonight
Wide awake and so confused
Everything's in line
But I am bruised
I need a voice to echo
I need a light to take me home
I kinda need a hero
Is it you?
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
Can you be my nightingale?
Sing to me
I know you're there
You could be my sanity
Bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale
Somebody speak to me
Cause I'm feeling like hell
Need you to answer me
I'm overwhelmed
I need a voice to echo
I need a light to take me home
I need a star to follow
I don't know
I never see the forest for the trees
I could really use your melody
Baby I'm a little blind
I think it's time for you to find me
Can you be my nightingale?
Sing to me
I know you're there
You could be my sanity
Bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale
I don't know what I'd do without you
Your words are like a whisper cutting through
As long as you are with me here tonight
I'm good
Can you be my nightingale?
Feels so close
I know you're there
Oh, nightingale
Sing to me
I know you're there
'Cause baby you're my sanity
You bring me peace
Sing me to sleep
Say you'll be my nightingale
Oh
Mm, mm
Mm
(Nightingale-Demi Lovato)
I finished and looked down at Austin. He was still silent, I let a few tears roll down my cheeks, it's funny I don't even think I was this emotional about my own mother. Well I was but in a different way, when we were in the hospital I never cried, I only cried about three weeks after when I called her name because I was wondering where my brush was. I then had realized that she wasn't ever coming back. I am not going to let another person slip away from me, not again. I don't think I can take it.
It has been about a week. I've been visiting Austin as many times as I can, they haven't seen any signs of him waking up but none of him getting worse. Which is good I guess. It was Friday night, it's now officially been a full week. Dez, Trish, and I were having to stay after school to make up a test that we missed. As we were walking out, well more like zombie walked. In total of sleep I've gotten would be about I don't know seven? In this entire week. There were a few nights that i just couldn't sleep. We were all startled when Trish's phone rang. "One sec guys" Trish said walking away. "So do you know when Austin will wake up?" Dez asked me. "I don't even know" I said sighing, "but I know it will be soon" I said half believing and half giving myself some last minutes hope. "He will, I know he will. Where ever he is right now, he's going crazy not seeing you. You know that boy is in love with you. He would do anything for you, if you told him to jump off a cliff I'm pretty sure he'd do it just to see you happy" Dez said causing me to laugh. "And you know why I know that?" Dez whispered to me. Oh no. I rolled my eyes and said "no why Dez?" I asked knowing the answer. "Cause I'm the love-whisper" Dez said in his weird voice. "No you're-" I began but Trish ran back to us worried. "Guys, that was Jimmy he said he needs me to find a new performer to take Austin's place, he was going to play at one of Jimmy's parties this would of really helped his career. I wonder who could do it-" Trish said before she shot Dez a look and then he shot me a look, then they both looked at each other and smiled. "Ally sweetie, do you think you could perform for Austin tonight? Only you know all of his song's as well as he does and you can put as much as emotion into the songs. Please!" Trish begged me. I gulped, I mean I know this would really help Austin and our songs. They could get more popular and that could cause that would help Austin rise on the charts. "Fine, I'm only doing this for Austin" I said defeated. "Yes! Let's go get ready!" Trish squealed as we all headed to her house. We had spent that entire afternoon and evening getting ready, I felt really bad about not seeing Austin. Who knows he could wake up without us! I'll visit him after the *gulp* concert. We drove to Jimmy's party, I was wearing a white light dress with different color small flowers on it. "Ally!" Jimmy said giving me a hug. "Thank you so much for doing this! I've meant to visit but I've been so busy-" Jimmy said, I smiled and said "it's fine Jimmy, it's the thought that counts" I said. "Well break a leg! You're on in five!" Jimmy said. Dez and Trish rushed me to the backstage. "Oh my god. Maybe this wasn't a good idea. I mean maybe I could pretend to get sick, or I might not have to fake it" I said starting to feel a bit nauseous. "Ally Dawson! Stop it! Just think about Austin ok! Just think of him! Ok! You've got this" Trish said before I gave her a hug. Then Dez opened his arms for a hug which I began to walk into before he turned me around and pushed me onto stage. Everyone went quiet and looked at me. Wow. That's a lot of people. What if I can't do this! What if I mess up, or fall, or die? I then thought about Austin, I smiled and said, "thank you all for coming out tonight! I know that I'm not Austin moon but I'm his songwriter Ally Dawson. I know some of you have never heard me sing, well actually a matter of fact no one has besides Austin. This is my first live performance ever so I really hope you like it!" I said before taking a huge breath in and began to sing.
I've been wishin' for somethin' missin'
To fill this empty space
To show the person behind the curtain
So you'll understand
Who I really am
The me that you don't see
Is praying there's a chance you still believe
Tell me that I'm worth it
I'll prove that I deserve it
And I can be
The me that you don't see
To be standing tall
No shadows at all
That's all I really wanna do
To be a circle of one
Stepping into the sun
Sharing the light that's here with you
I'm here with you
The me that you don't see
Is praying there's a chance you still believe
Tell me that I'm worth it
I'll prove that I deserve it
And I can be
The me that you don't see
(The me that you don't see- Laura Marano)
I finished and all the people were clapping and cheering for me! Me! I didn't get booed! I didn't get tomatoes thrown at me! I smiled and thanked everyone and walked off. I then looked at the clock, it was already nine! At the hospital they let us stay till ten, but it will take us half an hour to just get there. "Guys! We have to go!" I said pointing to the clock. We all rushed out drove down to the hospital, stupid traffic. We got there and ran up to Austin's room and saw it was already nine-fifty. "You only have time for one more visitor, sorry" The nurse who I learned her name was Rydel said. "You should go" Trish said , I checked to make sure before I walked in. Austin looked a tad bit brighter but you could only really tell if you looked really close at his face. "Hey, I um I performed today" I said smiling and holding onto Austin's hand. "You know that song called 'The me you don't see'? Well I performed that one. I broke it my stage fright! All thanks to you, in a weird way I mean if you wouldn't of gotten into a car crash, um yeah I'm stopping there." I said thinking if Austin was awake right now he would be laughing at me. "I um, I also wore the dress you liked I know you can't really see it but still" I said. "Sorry Ally you have to go home now" Rydel said, I smiled and said "ok thanks" I bent down and kissed Austin's right check, the one I always kiss. I began to walk away, not wanting to let go of his hand. I knew there was nothing to tell me to wait, to stay. Then there was.
I felt someones hand tighten around mine. I froze. I turned around and quickly saw Austin's big hand wrapped around mine. Tears yet again went into my eyes. His eyes weren't open but then he did something shocking. Austin spoke.
"Ally"
So yay he's awake! Ally broke her stage fright! Things are looking up! This took me about three hours, I kept on re-writing parts but I hope you guys liked this! Please! I don't want to sound me but please review! I will update soon!
