Chapter 9

"She's in an induced coma, if we didn't put her in it she could have died", the old doctor said to Bruce

"Ok so you're saying you can just remove her from the coma anytime?", Bruce was a lot of things but medically smart

I should know, he made the doctor explain things to him in 'baby terms' as he called it

"That's not exactly how it works Bruce, we need to stabilise her fully then a time will come when she herself will wake up, that is when she is fully stabilised", the doctor didn't really know how to speak to Bruce, he wanted simple English, but then who in the fucking universe wants doctors to stress their selves trying to speak 'SIMPLE ENGLISH IN BABY TERMS'

"How long will it take", all Bruce wanted to know was if she'd be fine, if she'd be fine when she'd wake up he'll carry her far from this place

"It could take a week, two weeks, a year, five years or even ten years, results vary", the doctor shouldn't have been given a medical licence, he was such a sadist, he provided no chance of hope to his patient and he looked like someone who was corrupt with his big belly and all

"So you're saying she may never wake up?", Bruce broke down

Another freaking sad sight, let me break it down for you darling

Two men in an office, one old and one young, one with a stone cold face and one close to tears, one looking like something that was from Botched and one looking like a failed record

"Its a probability, but we hope for the best"

'"Can I see her?", all he needed was her and her alone and alive

"Sure", the doctor said pointing towards the direction of the door

Bruce stood up like a man, nodded towards the doctor and headed straight for Amelia's room

"Idiot", the doctor murmured when Bruce was out of headshot then continued his work

*************************

"la la la la, the dance of a thousand nations, feet moving, they thought they were trillions but truely it was only one, one dancer moving like the wind, from place to place, never stopping, never giving up la  laaaaa la laaaaaaa la laaaa la"

As Bruce continued badly singing the ballet song they had created together and were planning on performing when the championships were back on, if she was awake by then anyways

He held her hand with his, trying to remember all the lyrics

"Ta ta ta ta the music never stops, it goes on and on, and we never give up, one two three laaaaaa four five six laaaa that's how many feet were being counteddddddd, but when the dancers stopped, they found out they were just two lata lata latatalatalaaaaaaa"

He laughed as he stopped"wake up or else my bad singing will wake you up"

This was supposed to be like the movies, she was going to wake up when he'd sing for her, but she didnt

Maybe because it wasn't a movie, this was real life

"Dance step one, dance step two and three and four oh wait they aced it all latatata latalala moving like the windddddd----oh hey", sadly Bruce's musical was cut of by a nurse who had just walked it

"Sir don't you need to get home,and maybe change into something clean?", she asked smiling as she injected Amelia with something Bruce definitely had no idea what it was

"Wait what's the time?", he asked yawning

"Its about 7am sir",for one strange reason Bruce liked the nurse, not a I want to date her like, just a she's cool like, maybe it was because she was so nice and she smiled alot

"Well I guess I could go home and get some clothes"

As he was about to stand up Amelia's favourite and closest cousin, Walter came into the room

"Hey Bruce I heard what happened", he said fast as he looked at his cousin

Her face was pale and she wasn't herself

"Is it serious?", Walter asked moving closer to her bed

"Very, she's in an induced coma, chances are 50:50", Bruce spoke with such confidence that would have made anyone think he really did understand what he was saying, but to be honest he didnt

"We missed you bro", Bruce added, for as long as he could remember Walter was like an older brother to both he and Amelia,they'd go to clubs together, hang out and well have fun

"I missed you guys to but work kept me busy, Natalia said I should say hi,she couldn't make it though", Natalia was Walters sister, she was younger by five years making it difficult to hang out with them,but still they used to be one big happy family

"I don't want to lose her", Bruce cried out immediately the nurse excused herself to give them some privacy

"I don't want to lose her to bro, we just have to have faith, why would death target my happy fun life loving cousin", the pain was visible in his voice, too visible but Bruce understood exactly how he felt

"She'll be ok,we'll be ok"Walter said like he was sure, but he wasn't

"Will we?"
