So here is Chapter Two of this fic, they are short chapters but that does mean I update more frequently.
I am trying to catch up with HCSC and Her Year so give me a week or so and the next chapters of those should go up. I have probably taken on too much at once with my multi-chapters but I am just enjoying writing all of them so much honestly! So even though I am kind of behind, go ahead and leave some oneshot prompts if you want to.
As always, make sure to review with your criticisms or hopes or dreams or whatever you want really! Enjoy,

Coma Confessions – Chapter 2
Zoe peeked through the blinds at Max's sleeping body. She had to tell herself he was sleeping. She wasn't sure she'd be able to cope otherwise. Her mind fought with her heart on whether she should be going in, whether he would want her to. Suddenly, an idea formed in her mind and she scurried away from the room, a slight smile on her face.
She came back minutes later with a watering can and slipped into the room before anyone gave her any more strange looks. She began to water the plant, taking care not to damage the leaves. Slowly placing the can down on the floor, she resumed the position she had assumed yesterday, next to his bedside, their hands close but never touching.
"I've watered the plant so it won't die on you," she paused as she said her next sentence, "Just like you're not going to die on me, Max. Not now. Your story isn't over yet Max, it just isn't. So you better come back soon because…"
Tears were flowing down Zoe's face as she spoke and she realised her hand had grasped onto his tightly during her words. She hesitated before snatching her hand back and watching Max's fall limply back onto the bedside.
"Sorry," she choked out before once again fleeing from the room, cursing herself for being so foolish.
