poured out of me as they turned on the machine. All hope I had left went with my DNA as I sat there looking at my brother. I felt helpless that I let it get this far and they knew that. They turned to me and laughed at me as I stared at the unmoving twin. They soon left me to my prison as I looked up and cried.

“Why them?”I screamed into the air,”Why couldn’t I have died? I give up everything. Just let me die. Why keep me here when there is no more hope.”

I woked up when I felt the nurse shaking me and saying my name. Dad was over me trying to help as much as he could. I sat up as Dad hugged me tightly. Mom ran in like I was going to die on her soon. I closed my eyes as I buried my face into my father’s chest.

“Is she alright?”Mom asked,”Do I need to get the doctor?”

“She’s good,”Dad said still holding me,”She just had a bad dream. She’ll be ok, if she just calms down some.”

She walked over and petted my head as I stayed there and cried my eyes out. My mom ended up getting the doctor to come and see me. It turned out I had an anxiety attack. So they put me in the bed and had another nurse come in, so I had two helping me out. My mom stayed to talk with me as dad was in the bed beside me.

I kept shaking like crazy and Crystal went to go get something. The new nurse, Lacey, stayed and listened to my story. I told them the dream as dad fell asleep. Crystal walked in with notebooks, mechanical pencils, and color pencils. She sat them on the table in front of me and told me that they were mine.

“All of this?”I asked as she nodded,”I can’t take these.”

“This will help you with the anxiety,”Crystal said,”This is from me to you. Your dad told me how you draw and write, so I thought you could do it here.”

“Jess that would be wonderful,”Mom said smiling at me.

“Thanks,”I said,”I will be sure to do that.”

Out of nowhere my dad started to snore oddly loudly. I laughed and elbowed him, waking him up. He looked around and stared at me like I lost my head. Since getting there I felt like a normal kid stuck in the hospital. That lasted five seconds, when pain shot into my arm. The nurses stood beside me incase I needed them. Again Why is it always me?

Chapter 19

For a month straight I was in and out of my hospital room. They would let me out and help my nurses with other and be useful. The greatest idea I have heard in awhile. The days I was in there my friends planned games and fun activities for us to do. No boredom here. I could go and see anyone in the hospital except my brother. Which was the down side to it.

Today I was dancing around my room with the nurses straightening the room up. The doctor walked into the room with a smile on his face. He came over to me making me stop and face him. Crystal and Lacey walked up and made me sit on the bed and got him a chair.

“What up doc?”I asked as he took a seat.

“Nothing Bugs Bunny,”He replied,”But today you’re going into room 143. So you better be on your best behavior.”

I looked up with excitement as he just gave me the best news in my whole life. Well beside me getting told that Zack was my brother of course or my dad is still alive. That was my brother’s room. I got up and started to jump around saying yes like the little kid I am. They laughed and got me to calm down from it. He told me that Zack is still in pretty bad shape but well enough that I could go in without freaking out.

We left to the room next to mine and walked on in. My parents were in there and Matt was with the twins outside. I walked over to him and notice that he looked a lot better since a month ago. I walked up and sat on the end of the bed as I looked at him. Zack kicked me and met my eyes.

“Ow,”I said mockingly,”How are you? You had me scared for me life.”

“I know. I could feel your pain,”He said with a sadden smile,”I saw that dream to. I wanted to tell you that it’s not real but couldn’t. I wanted to get out of this bed and comfort you. So many times. I…”

“Wanted to help me,”I finished,”I felt the same way. I couldn’t stand roaming around and not being able to…”

“See me,”He finished.

Our parents stared at us in shock. It was weird how we knew what the other was going to say before actually it coming out. Is this the weird twin thing they all talk about. When you say something the other was going to say or knowing about it. I thought it was more of you know them really well you know what they are going to say. That is when Dr. Mathew walked in on us.

He looked at us for a few seconds than to our mother. He seemed happy to see her sitting there. I looked at him as he seemed ready to cry at the sight when Zack touched my shoulder. I was glad he knew how I felt  and was there for at the moment. I took a deep breath in to calm my nerves. I looked at Dr. Mathew as he was back on us again.

“Dr. Mathew,”Zack said,”I thought you said…”

“We would be fine,”I finished.

He gave us the same look as our parents did but I think his was funnier. It was kind of funny how surprised he was but I was still ticked he turned on me at the last second. I watched as he pulled up a chair and sat in front of us.

“That’s amazing,”He said,”You two’s minds linked together. It’s like of one heart and mind. I’m sorry that those two girls beat y’all as well.”

“It’s was just Zack,”I said pointing to my brother,”But after I saw him, I felt the pain of just scars, cuts, and bruises resuffering again.”

“Mandy,”Dr. Mathew said looking at our mother,”Your children are just mind blowing.”

“I know they are,”Mom said happily,”They are MY children after all.”

I just realized that I did inherit something from my mom. We both are very much smart alecs when we want to be. I watched them have a conversation while Zack and I tried to play rock, paper, scissors. The key word being tried for the whole your mind is linked thing. It was hard but funny for we kept choosing the same thing. They sat there watching us play our sad little game till my friends came in with cards and goldfish. What are they up to today?

“Who wanted to play poker?”James asked,”We had to ask where you were today. So I hope you do.”

“I don’t think…”I started.

“We can,”Zack finished.

They stared with surprised faces and dropped their cards gasping at it. I started to laugh my head off at their faces. It was like they saw something so mind blowing their brains weren’t there any more. Zack smiled and told them how funny they looked. I watched as they hurriedly picked up their stuff and got on the floor to play as we sat there thinking about who would have won it.

Chapter 20

We had to stay there for another long month to make sure everything was going good for the two of us. We would race down the hall ways and go outside to play with the twins when we got a sugar high. Yes the nurses snuck us sugar filled snacks. So they let us outside to get rid of the energy we had stored in us. We were getting ready to go home when the doctor came in looking upset for some odd reason.

“What up doc?”I asked noticing he was staring at me.

“There’s a little girl here,”he said meeting my eyes,”She has lost a lot of blood from a zombie attack. You are the only one here that has the same blood type as her. She could use your help bugs bunny.”

I froze in place once he said that. Crystal had started to wave her hand in front of my face I stayed there so long. Me give blood to a little girl. How do I know if it’s not Kay or Amanda? Zack told them about the whole thing with me and losing my blood as I unfroze. I ran out the door with Lacey and Crystal on my heels.Once they caught up with me, I was in tears and standing in front of the door that was locked with the picture of the girl.

“Are you alright?”Lacey asked.

“I know her,”I said looking at the brown haired grey eyed kid,”She was the little girl that Amanda and I use to baby sit. I guess I’ll do it for her.”

“Are you sure?”Crystal asked,”You don’t have to if you don’t want to.”

I nodded my head and we went to the lab. I was so nervous that I was starting to back out, but I remembered the girl needed me to do this. I closed my eyes and looked at her smiling face. I took a deep breath as they got started.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

 

At the end of the whole thing, I passed out about eight times. They started to help the girl as we left for home with me sadly a little light headed and loopy. My dad was filming me in that state and Ace was trying to play with me. Lucky for me it was just my parents, Zack, Ace and me in the car.

“Daddy,”I whined a little mad I couldn’t talk right,”turn the cam off.”

“Randy leave her alone,”Mom said as I smiled,”She can’t help it.”

“Fine,”He said giving up,”I’ll stop. Even though it’s funny.”

“At least you saved that girl Jess,”Zack said,”That was sweet.”

I smiled and got to ride the rest of the way home in peace. Thankfully I wasn’t in that horrible state when we got home. The twins both tackled me and I went to the ground with them on top of me. I moaned in pain as they hurriedly got off of me. I layed there for a few minutes till Matt came and helped me up. I
