20 Chapter 20 Alexis gone forever
3 hours before midnight at the hospital entrance,
" Where's Alexis? " Atticus asked Syrus and Blair
" How am I supposed to know? We just got here " Blair answered
" Hey nurse, do you know where the patient Alexis is? " Syrus asked a nurse nearby
" Oh.. Just go straight ahead, she's in the last room " the nurse answered
" Thanks " said Atticus and ran towards Alexis's ward
" Hey! No running in a hospital! " the nurse yelled at Atticus but he continued running
" I'm so sorry, he's just worried of his sister " Blair apologized for Atticus
" She's his sister? " the nurse asked
" Yeah, is there anything wrong? " Syrus questioned back
" I'm sure the boy in there will tell you guys " the nurse answered " And make sure he doesn't overreact "
" What do you mean? " Syrus asked
" Are you stupid or what Syrus?! " Blair said loudly in Syrus ears " She means Alexis is deep trouble "
" Then let's hurry! " Syrus replied and they went to Alexis ward quickly
" Lexi! " Atticus shouted as he entered Alexis's ward
" She can't hear you " Jaden told Atticus
" What happened to her? " Atticus asked Jaden " Why's her hand with burn marks? "
" She was at the hotel room when it blew up " Jaden answered
" Why didn't you protect her?! " Atticus said and pushed Jaden onto the ground
" I wasn't with her at that time " Jaden replied
Atticus didn't listen to him and landed a punch at his jaw but Jaden didn't avoid it. Then, Syrus and Blair held Atticus back stopping him from punching Jaden.
" Let me go! " Atticus yelled and struggled to release himself
" I'll let you go if you'd stop punching Jaden " said Blair
" Fine! Get out now! " Atticus yelled at Jaden
" But I should stay here with Lex " Jaden replied
" Do you want to walk out of here? Or do you want me to make you? " Atticus said to him furiously
" Atticus! Jaden is Alexis boyfriend! He should stay here " Syrus said
" He's the one who brought Alexis into this mess! " Atticus yelled
" Its ok guys, I'll leave " Jaden said and left quietly
" JADEN! " both Syrus and Blair yelled trying to keep him
" Don't worry about me " said Jaden " I'll be fine "
" Are you sure? " Blair asked
" Yeah, i'm ok " Jaden answered and left the hospital
" I really hope his ok " Blair said while watching Jaden leave
" Let's check on Alexis " Syrus said and they reenetered Alexis's ward
" Why didn't you summon Neos or me Jaden? " Yubel asked as soon as she appeared
" I didn't want to hurt anyone anymore " Jaden answered " Atticus is right, I'm the cause for all of this "
" Snap out of it Jaden! " Yubel yelled " Think about Alexis "
" She's safe with them now " Jaden replied
" No, she's not ok! " Yubel said " She needs you to be with her "
" I'm sure she'll do better without me " Jaden replied " Please leave me alone "
" JADEN! " Yubel yelled " What's the matter with you? "
" Nothing's wrong " Jaden said " I just want to be alone for a while "
" Alright Jaden, but remember to go back to see Alexis " Yubel replied and disappeared
Jaden then sat on a bench in the park behind the hospital and looked up into the sky with empty thoughts. He only wished for Alexis to recover and he would do anything for that to happen. After 2 hours,
" Hey Jaden! " said Syrus panting while approaching Jaden
" What is it Sy? " Jaden asked
" Its Alexis.. She's not breathing anymore " Syrus answered " You better go see her now! "
Jaden didn't say another and ran back to Alexis's ward and saw Atticus waiting outside with Blair
" What are you doing here Jaden?! Go away! " Atticus yelled at Jaden
" Atticus, can't you see he's just as upset as you? " Blair said while holding onto Atticus in case he does anything stupid
" Aren't you supposed to be happy Blair? " Atticus replied " You can be with Jaden now "
* Slap *
" What was that for? " Atticus asked while rubbing his left cheek with a red hand mark
" I made a promise to Alexis that I won't go close to Jaden and I intend to keep it! " Blair replied " All I want now is Jaden to be happy and that's to let him be with Alexis! "
" What's wrong with you Atticus? " Blair asked " You're not yourself anymore "
" I'm sorry Blair and Jaden " Atticus apologized " I guess I wasn't thinking straight "
Then, the doctor came out and shook his head.
" You better go in Jaden " Atticus said
Jaden only nodded and went into Alexis ward quietly
