(un)lucky Number thirteen by Missy (reading a book .txt) 📕

Ashton said shaking his head. I started to cry more, and I crawled towards Dylan, and as horrible the pain was I needed to. I got next to him, and put my shaky hands on his arm, and he opened his eyes slightly. He breathing was slowing down, and he brought his bloody hand up, and cupped my cheek. I let out a sob, and placed my hand over his crying into it.
“ Galaxy,” He whispered. I shook my head crying.
“ D- Dylan,” I said but my sobs made it hardly audible. I held my free hand in his, and we looked at one another.
“ Gal,” He said a small smile forming onto his lips. “ I need to tell you something..”
“ No!” I cried. “ You tell me later after we get you help,” I said my voice sounding hoarse.
“ I need to tell you know.”
“ No! You’re not going to die Dylan… You can’t,” I sobbed.
“ Look at me,” his voice cracked. I looked down at him, and our eyes connected.
“ im sorry for ever being mean to you… I love you Gal,” He whispered. my breath caught, and I bent my head down, and put my forehead against his.
“ Don’t leave me Dylan,” I whispered. he didn’t say anything. I pulled back, and his eyes were closed, and his chest stopped moving. “ DYLAN!” I screamed. I grabbed his arm and started to shake it. “NO.. No damnit no!” I sobbed. I felt my heart being physically torn in half, and I fell down next to him putting my head on his chest, and cried into him. “ Stay alive,” I whispered over and over. i heard Ashton talking into the phone. He called the police, and then I felt his presence next to me.
“ You love him Galaxy,” Ashton whispered. my body froze, and I kept my face in his chest… I loved Dylan… I did, but I never realized it until he was taken away from me. I brought my face up to his, and looked at him.
“ Dylan you need to stay alive…” I whispered touching his cheek, and speaking so softly. “ You need to stay alive, because I can’t live without out you… I love you Dylan,” I whispered kissing his forehead. The sounds of sirens filled the air, and I laid next to Dylan. My body didn’t hurt as bad anymore. It was starting to feel better. My breathing slowed down. Im not scared of dying. Im scared of living without Dylan.
Chapter twenty-
I slowly opened my eyes, and they felt so heavy. I almost had them open, but then I closed them again. The second time I forced myself for my eyes to open, and I blinked at the brightness. The room was white, and the lights where shining on me, so brightly. It felt like I was going towards the light. “ Don’t go towards the light,” I muttered.
“ Oh my god!” Someone cried. I looked over, and saw Ashton sitting on a chair next to a bed, and he was looking at me intently.
“ Ashton?” I whispered, and then everything that had happened came into my mind, and I held my breath, and closed my eyes, and tears fell down my cheeks. I felt Ashton touch my hand, but I pulled it away, and kept my eyes closed. “ Is he… Alive?” I whispered. Ashton didn’t say anything, and my lips started trembling.
“ he is alive Gal… but…” He stopped.
“ but what?” I muttered.
“ He is in a coma…”
A sob escaped my lips, and I rolled over my back facing him, and brought my knees up to my chest tears rolling down my face. Pain went through my body, and I let out a cry, and Ashton turned me back around to lay on my back. I sucked in a deep breath.
“ Take it easy Gal. You have four broken ribs, and the rest are bruised,” he said holding my hand. Tears continued to run down my cheeks, and I wouldn’t open my eyes. “ You came out of your coma, and he will come out of his.” My eyes opened, and I turned my head towards him.
“ I was in a coma?” I asked.
“ Yeah, for like four days, look around Galaxy,” he sighed. I looked around and their where flowers, balloons, and card everywhere! I looked around shocked. My tears came down my face, and I shook my head, and hid my face in my hands.
“ Can I see him…” I whispered into my hand.
“ yeah, come on,” He said. I looked up and he was bringing a wheel chair around the bed, and I turned my body and bit my lip because it was painful. I held my breath and was about to sit up, but Ashton grabbed me bridal style and sat me down in the wheel chair.
“ Thanks,” I muttered. He stood behind me, and pushed the wheel chair, and I looked around and some people looked at me when I passed, but they all went back to what they were doing. Ashton stopped in front of one of the doors, and he walked around and opened it, and wheeled me inside. I saw Dylan laying on the bed, and he looked so peaceful. His chest was rising up and down. Ashton stopped in front the bed, and I heard him turn around and walk out of the room closing the door. I sat their looking at my hands, and then I looked at Dylan. My lips started trembling, and I started to sob. “Dylan…” I whispered. I let out a dry laugh, and looked up at the ceiling, and rubbed my face. “ Why didn’t you ever tell me how you felt about me? Why did you always act like such a jerk!” I cried shaking my head. “ Why did you come their Dylan… Why the hell did you do that you idiot,” I muttered tears falling down my cheeks.
“ Because he loved you,” Someone said. I turned my head around and saw Ashton walking into the room. He pulled up a chair and sat down next to me. “ And you love him…” Ashton said with this sorrowful look on his face.
“ I love you too Ashton, but not the same way I use too…” I whispered looking at Dylan. “ I love you, but im in love with Dylan, and I don’t even know why. I don’t know anything about him other than all the years he loathed me, so why do I feel so strongly about him?” I said shaking my head.
“ Love is mysterious…” He grumbled.
“ he sure had one hell of a way of showing that he loved me…” I groaned.
“ Sometimes it’s not easy for people to show their emotions…. When he wakes up he’ll explain things to you,” Ashton said. I sat their looking at him.
“ hey, Ashton?” I asked.
“ Hm?” He asked looking at Dylan.
“ Why do you seem… so okay with this?” I asked.
“ With what?” he asked looking over at me. I pointed to Dylan and then at myself. “ He loves you and you obviously love him. I loved you, and I still love you, but we just lost those feelings. I think it’s for the best that we stay friends,” He said trying to smile.
“ You’re always going to be my friend Ash,” I said putting my hand on his arm.
“ I know…” he said smiling at me. I looked back down at Dylan, and felt my heart beating faster, and butterflies in my stomach. I smiled.
“ I love Dylan,” I laughed..
“ What so funny about that?” Ashton asked.
“ I love the dude that has made me feel like crap for so many years… What is that?” I asked. He just shrugged my shoulders, and I grinned and looked back at Dylan. I heard Ashton getting up and he gave my shoulder a light squeeze. I gave him a warm smile, and he turned and left. I turned my body back to Dylan, and I sat their looking at him. “ Your still an idiot,” I whispered looking at his still body. I felt tears sting my eyes, and I heard someone walking into the room, and I turned around and saw Zane standing there.
“ hey Gal,” he whispered.
“ hey Zane,” My voice sounded hoarse. He stood their looking at me, and then he lunged himself at me wrapping his arms around me, and holding me close to him.
“ I thought I lost you Galaxy…” He cried. “ I thought I lost my best friend!” he said crying into my shoulder. I wrapped my arms around him, and buried my face into his chest, and started laughing. He pulled away from me looking irritated.
“ Remember what I told you the first time we started hanging out six and a half years ago?” I asked.
“ You talk a lot, so I don’t exactly know,” he sighed. I lightly hit his arm laughing.
“ Once your friends with me, you’re stuck with me for life. Im not going anywhere Zane,” I smiled.
“ Good… You know…” he stopped himself, and sat down on the chair, and I sat in the wheel chair, and we both looked at Dylan. “ I always knew there was something up with Dylan… when we first became friends… I had the biggest crush on you,” he laughed, and i felt my eyes become big. “ I fell in love with you… you where my first love, but when we got older I didn’t feel that way anymore. You are my best friend, and I love you as a best friend, and I don’t think Dylan ever realized that. He knew I loved you when we were younger, but he didn’t realize I fell out of love with you… Dylan has always been jealous. We grew apart when you and me became best friends. I thought he would try to win you over, but he did the exact opposite… he treated you like complete and utter crap…” He said shaking his head. “ Do I know why, nope…. But I know that he loves you, and you love him…” I sat their looking at Dylan and I let out a deep sigh.
“ and just as a realize it he was taken from me…” I whispered.
“ he is right their Gal,” he said looking at me and then Dylan.
“ Is he?”
“ he’s not going to die, I promise,” he said touching my hand. I felt tears coming down my cheeks.
“ Don’t promise me something like that Zane,” I muttered looking away from him and down at our hands.
“ He is my brother… I have to at least promise this to myself…” he said leaning back into his chair. we sat there for a while in silence. Not awkward silence though. We were taking everything in, and I wasn’t doing to good I just had to keep myself strong in front of Zane. This is own blood… I gotta be strong… my hands were shaking, and I tucked them underneath me, and felt the tears start to come down again.
“ Z. Zane…” I said my voice cracking, and my sobs coming out harder. “ What if he dies…” I wailed. I bent over putting my face into my hands crying, and Zane kept silent, and I heard his soft whimpers start, and I looked at him, and he was looking at Dylan with tears falling down his cheeks. “Zane… he is going to die because of me…” I whimpered.
