I sat and held Claire's hand. She was so cold. It's been a month. She is still in a coma. I take her hand and bring it to my lips. The bullet that grazed her, was not a normal bullet. It was silver laced in wolfsbane. The doctor said that the reason she is in a coma is because she is fighting off the wolf's bane. I feel hot tears stream down my face but my expression doesn't change. I make no move to swipe them off. I just kept her fingers to my lips. I did my pack work here, I slept in the chair beside her bed, I sat with her and watched her, like I am now, when i have free time. I only leave when the pain becomes to unbearable and go for a run. It's happened two times in the last month. People brought food to me, but i won't eat it. Only once a week. I take showers in the bathroom in her room.
I miss her so much. Her laugh her face when she glares. I miss the way she groans and falls off the bed when she gets up. So the first time in a month, I talk to her.
"Claire." I say. My voice cracking. I let the tears fall. I then start sobbing. "Please come back to me. I miss you. I miss you ranting about unicorns and being weird, your stubbornness, the sound of your voice, I just miss you and i want you to come back. Please come back to me Claire. I have never cared so deeply for somebody. Claire. I....I love you. I love you so much. I love you like you love Ramen Noodles. Please come back." I wait a few minutes. Nothing. I then crawl into the bed with her. I watch out for the wires that are connected to her arm. I put my head on her chest and son my eyes out. I mind link telling everybody to stay out of her her room. That I needed to be alone with no distractions. I sob and sob until I fall asleep. With my mate.
Claire's Point Of View.
Darkness is everywhere. I sit up and a rush of air passes by. I blink and the next minute I am in a meadow. Honeysuckle, lilacs, roses, and dandelions everywhere. I touch a flower and half of the flowers become sand and i suddenly see a stream about twenty paces to my left. It leads somewhere. I stand up. There is a figure across the field. I squint my eyes to see who it is. I then start walking. I look around as one walk forward and notice there are no bees. I look up and a dark cloud comes over me and the figure. I squint and notice it. The cloud is the bees. Suddenly the meadow is gone. And it's all darkness again. The figure is still standing there. In a spotlight. I run. I run towards the figure. I get close but then move slower. I look down and feel cold water running and as i walk and as of keep walking I get deeper. But i don't float and the water keeps me moving forward. I am suddenly engulfed and oddly, I can breath. I open my eyes and see images. Axel. Happy memories we had. Me being stubborn with him and not looking at him when he told me to. The nightmares the night he marked me. The first morning I found him and played his head on my chest. The first time I saw him smile, and in that moment, I didn't notice Axel had dimples. Very cute dimples at that. As i have said before. I am a sucker for dimples. Then, I see stuff i don't remember. After Drak shot me, or got patched up. Then another image shows up.
"This is what happens when you stay." A voice says. I see kids. Me with a baby bump. Me and Axel joking and playing around. "And if you don't." The voice says again. I look and see it. It brings tears in my eyes. Fire. Blood. Heartbreak. And then Axel in a bed. My bed. Holding my shirt. My favorite one. The giant blue shirt. Axel looks horrible. Hair disheveled. Face unsaved. His grey eyes, that were usually blank, held pain. I then notice tears fill his eyes. And he starts to sob. And he keeps saying, "Come back to me." I start to cry. "What do you choose Claire?" Somebody asks. I then decide. "Wake me up." I say sternly. All of the sudden the water fills my lungs and i eventually drown.
